Hart said, "There were rumors that Justin [was] dealing with Kendall Jenner and that shocked me. I was like, 'What the fuck?' That's what I said, 'What the fuck?' I was like, 'You gonna deal with a Jenner, I thought it would be Bruce. That's what I thought."

Jeff Ross also brought up Kendall Jenner during his roast and reportedly mocked Bruce Jenner in a joke that didn't air.

Matt Donnelly, a reporter for The Wrap, tweeted from the roast as it happened live, "Kendall Jenner if you and Justin Bieber get married who is going to give you away? Only man in [that] family is Khloe Kardashian."

Will Ferrell, who was in character as Ron Burgundy, also apparently made a joke about Jenner's transition that didn't air.

Not a fan of the #BruceJenner joke. Great set, but that joke was shitty and it was uncool to make it in front of his daughter. #BieberRoast

Bruce's daughter Kendall Jenner and stepdaughter Kourtney Kardashian were in attendance at the "Roast of Justin Bieber" while all three transphobic jokes were made.

On Sunday night, Jamie Foxx was also in the hot seat for making a joke about Bruce Jenner when he hosted the iHeart Radio Music Awards.

“We have some groundbreaking performances here too tonight. Bruce Jenner will be here doing some musical performances. He’s doing a his and her duet all by himself," Foxx said. “Look, I’m just busting your balls while I still can.”

Earlier today Burt Jenner, one of Bruce's sons, told TMZ how outraged he was with both Foxx and Hart.

"[Kevin made jokes] in front of my sister. He got a little lucky, because you can make jokes about my dad all you want, but you can't make jokes in front of my sister and make my sister feel awkward… I would've charged the stage. If security would have gotten to me beforehand, I would have thrown something at ya."

In February, BuzzFeed News reported that Bruce Jenner's transition is being documented for a television series that will air on E! Bruce is also reportedly going to come out as transgender in an interview with Diane Sawyer for ABC News.
