Tom Brady Takes Heat Over FTX Links: Netflix Roast Sparks Controversy

by bitcoinews.us


In the realm of celebrity roasts, no one is spared from the comedic onslaught. However, during Netflix’s “The Greatest Roast of All Time,” NFL legend Tom Brady found himself in the host seat as jokes about his involvement with the defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX took center stage.

Comedian Kevin Hart set the tone with a light-hearted jab at Brady’s connection to FTX. He humorously questioned why the event wasn’t held at the Crypto.com Arena. This playful dig hinted at Brady’s crypto-related financial woes, setting the stage for a series of sharper remarks to follow. He said,

“Well, the reason why we didn’t go there is because we didn’t want to remind Tom’s fans of how much money he owes them. He f**ked those people. Tom f**ked those people. F**ked them good, didn’t he

As the night progressed, comedian Nikki Glaser didn’t hold back, targeting Tom Brady’s reported $30 million cryptocurrency-related loss. With a blend of sarcasm and disbelief, she pondered how such a seasoned football star could fall victim to such a significant financial blunder. Even Brady’s former teammate, Rob Gronkowski, wasn’t spared from the comedic banter. Glaser highlights his potential foresight in the matter.

Looking Back at Brady’s FTX Association

Beyond mere jests, Brady’s affiliation with FTX served as a sobering reminder of the risks associated with celebrity endorsements in the volatile world of crypto. Despite receiving millions in FTX shares for his promotional efforts alongside his wife Giselle Bündchen, the exchange’s abrupt collapse in November 2022 rendered Brady’s investment worthless. It also embroiled its founder Sam Bankman-Fried, in legal turmoil.

Brady’s crypto saga did not end with FTX. In 2021, he announced plans to launch his own NFT platform amid the intense fervor around non-fungible tokens. However, interest in this space waned and Brady’s venture followed suit.

Furthermore, the Netflix roast noted the notion that even the most accomplished athletes aren’t immune to financial setbacks. Brady’s journey from athletic prowess to crypto catastrophe served as a cautionary tale of the perils of ill-fated endorsements.
