Jeff Ross has a few people in mind whom Netflix should put in the hot seat next for a roast.

The stand-up comic was one of several high-profile stars at “The Roast of Kevin Hart,” and after taking his shot at the “Ride Along” star, he hinted that names like Stevie Wonder and Drake could make strong targets for future roasts.

His suggestion quickly drew reactions on social media, with some also sharing their own ideas about who should be roasted next.

Jeff Ross Says Drake Would Be ‘Great’ For A Roast

Following Hart’s successful live roast show, Ross gave Variety a behind-the-scenes look at the event’s preparation, including who he would like to see in the hot seat next.

Speaking to the outlet, Ross said one of his top choices would be to have a musician face the heat, before narrowing it down to Drake as one of his preferred picks.

“A pop star or a rock star would be great. A rapper would be great. I could see Drake getting roasted and being a great one,” Ross said.

The comedian also mentioned veteran singer Stevie Wonder as another top option.

“One of my all-time favorite ideas is Stevie Wonder. I always say, ‘The Roast of Stevie Wonder: You’ve got to hear it to believe it,’” he added.

Fans Doubt Drake Would Ever Sit For A Roast

On X, fans shared their thoughts about Ross’ choices, especially regarding his preference for Wonder.

“Stevie Wonder roast would be legendary. Jeff Ross knows exactly what he’s doing with that one,” one individual joked.

As for the possibility of Drake being placed in the hot seat, most users claimed it would likely never happen.

“Drake got roasted by the whole country for over a year. I think he will probably pass,” one user said, referencing the rapper’s widely-publicized beef with Kendrick Lamar.

“Drake is too thin-skinned for a roast. Frankly, it’s hard to find a music star who isn’t,” another added.

Hart’s roast is the second installment in Netflix’s “GOAT” roast series hosted by Shane Gillis. For now, there is no word on whether a third “GOAT” has agreed to be roasted, but Ross believes another high-profile figure may opt in soon.

“Kevin doing it opens it up to almost anybody who is at the top of their game and wants to show the world they’re a good sport,” Ross told the outlet.

“It humanized even Kevin, whom we feel like we know everything about. It made him show some vulnerability by laughing at himself. A lot of celebrities could use that kind of injection of laughter into their career,” he added.

For Hart’s roast, Ross appeared to hold nothing back, taking a swipe at the comedian over his attendance at a Diddy party and joking about his “pieces of sh-t” movies. He also brought up the actor’s upbringing and even referenced his relationship with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

“Your dad was a street hustler and addicted to crack cocaine,” Ross quipped. “So, I guess being dependent on the Rock runs in the family.”

Despite how boundary-pushing the jokes were, some went even further and seemingly did not make it into the roast for that reason.

“One that I was saying all week that I wound up dropping was: Kevin, your dad sold crack, and you literally sell everything except crack. From his comedy to his tequila to his chain of vegan fast-food restaurants, Kevin is always looking for new ways to make people throw up,” Ross joked.

Jeff Ross Says Nothing Was Off-Limits At Kevin Hart Roast

Elsewhere in the conversation, Ross also revealed that many people have been curious about whether any topics were off-limits during the roast.

On this, he shared that Hart never imposed any such restrictions, but he acknowledged that it is only logical not to go too far over the edge.

“For me, there’s a sportsmanship to it… I want to scratch the skin, but I don’t want to break it. Nothing was off limits. I don’t think there was a single topic from Kevin’s life that didn’t get brought up. It’s really just a question of how overt you want to be,” he remarked.
