Detroit Pistons big man Blake Griffin showcased his skills in stand-up comedy by roasting Caitlyn Jenner about her sex change and her daughters.
Griffin was on The Comedy Roast of Alec Baldwin together with Robert De Niro, Caitlyn Jenner and Ken Jeong.
Griffin, who has been spotted with Kendall Jenner before, seemingly dug up from the past and morphed them into ribbing jokes. Good thing Jenner was a good sport, as Griffin's stabs were on the verge of crossing the line.
A lot are probably surprised that Griffin, apart from being an elite NBA player, actually has stand-up skills. In an interview with Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times, the 30-year-old Pistons star shared that since he was young, he's always had a penchant for making his family and friends laugh.
“I don’t know where it comes from,” Griffin said of his passion for comedy. “Maybe being the younger child and always trying to make my family laugh. I was the same way around my friends. I was always trying to make my friends laugh. I can’t explain it. It’s just what I enjoy doing. I only want to do commercials and shows that are funny. I want to make people laugh.”
I guess it's pretty safe to say that after Griffin hangs up his jerseys and sneakers for good (which won't happen any time soon), he'll probably grace the dais on comedy shows — making everyone laugh through witty jokes and good ribbings.
