Nikki Glaser has revealed who exactly booed Kim Kardashian at Tom Brady's Netflix roast amid rumours it was linked to Taylor Swift fans.
Held at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles earlier this month, the comedy special was part of the Netflix Is A Joke Fest.
The eventful show was broadcasted live and unedited on the streamer, making for some pretty wild content.

Many famous faces were in attendance ready to give it their all, including Ben Affleck and Kim Kardashian.
However, Kardashian was brutally booed after she was invited up on stage by comedian Kevin Hart.
While there were some initial cheers when the reality TV star started the roast, they were quickly drowned out by a whole load of boos.
The boos were so loud that Kardashian had to pause in the middle of her sentence, looking stunned at the audience in the process.
It was only after Hart intervened with calls of ‘Woah, woah, woah,’ did the crowd die down.
The round of booing certainly garnered a lot of attention on social media, with one user penning: "Kim Kardashian getting booed at the Tom Brady Roast is incredible."
A second added: "Guess you should only appear live when you can control the narrative. Otherwise you'll get booed right off the stage every time."
While a third remarked: "Holy s*** like half the audience at the Tom Brady roast just mercilessly booed Kim Kardashian to the point where she had to stop and acknowledge it."
As for the culprit?
Well, Glaser has put the blame on some 'wild guy who’s a comedian' with a 'reputation for just, like, starting s**t'.
Speaking on an episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Glaser said: "Apparently, he started the boo as just, like, a joke. He just had too many drinks or something, and he’s not affiliated with Swifties or anything [and] just felt like saying a boo into the air, and apparently everyone was so riled up."
Netflix has actually since gone back in and edited the booing out of the version of the programme you can watch on Netflix now, according to Variety.
The roast now also includes a disclaimer that says 'edited from a previous livestream'.
In the latest version, Kardashian walks on stage and gives Hart a high five before dishing out her jokes.
This time, there are no noticeable jeers from the crowd.
