Zach Galifianakis is easily one of the most praiseworthy actor cum comedians in the entire entertainment industry, and it’s not just because he’s good at delivering jokes that leave his audiences wheezing with laughter. Rather, it’s because, as famed as he is for roasting others, he is equally famous for getting roasted in return, even if it’s most scripted.
For one, even great Hollywood A-listers like actress Jennifer Lawrence and actor cum comedian Steve Carell have dropped some really brutal one-liners to roast and fat-shame him over his physique. And, as cruel as all of those fat-shaming comments were, they weren’t the only ones to do so, and we can’t decide who did it better.
The time Zach Galifianakis got fat-shamed by Jennifer Lawrence and Steve Carell
Besides delivering some of the most iconic acting performances through his onscreen pieces, actor cum comedianZach Galifianakishas also proven to do a rather commendable job through his comedic gigs. This stands true especially while considering the ones he came up with on his show of awkward interviews,Between Two Ferns.
During these interviews, a lot of celebrities joined him over the years. This includedJennifer Lawrenceas well, whom Galifianakis asked about herHunger Gamesfilm series. To this, the actress took a dig at him, saying, “Yeah, isn’t that your life story?” while talking about the titular words of her iconic fan-favorite saga.

While she chuckled, he seemed offended as he said, “You shouldn’t say that. It’s off-putting.” To this, Lawrence once again caught him off-guard in the clip shared by@netflixnmovies on Instagramas she said, “You should be off-pudding.” Ouch, roasted enough? Well, yes this would have unarguably stung had Galifianakis most ostensibly not penned it all down by himself.
But while Lawrence’s roasting is one thing,Steve Carellactually took it to the next level. During their interview,The Officeactor asked, “When you go to the beach and you swim out past the buoys, do people think that there’s an island there?” As hilarious as his question was, an agitated Galifianakis responded by saying, “I’m not that fat, man!”
Needless to say, as much as these are fat jokes, both of them are more than enough to have fans wheezing with laughter and good enough to rank first leaving fans confused about who did it better. But while these two absolutely aced it, even with how they delivered their lines, they weren’t the only ones to roast Galifianakis this way.
Zach Galifianakis also got bullied by others!
While Lawrence and Carell fat-shaming Galifianakis was brutal enough, other actors and celebrities brought about even more hilarious digs at the actor. For one,Hailee Steinfeldwas asked about her smash-hit songStarving, to this, she took a cruelly hilarious jab at him, saying, “Let me guess: You can’t relate,” while talking about the literal meaning of the song title.
Then there was the timeMatthew McConaugheyroasted him when asked about his movieFailure to Launch. TheInterstellarstar said, “You know what movie you were not in? Failure to Lunch. Because you had 10 freaking corn dogs you stuffed.” But, perhaps, the most hard-hitting was when the former president of the United States of America chimed in.

When he appeared on his show, Galifianakis askedBarack Obama, “In 2013, you pardoned a turkey. What do you have planned for 2014?” To this, Obama responded, “We’ll probably pardon another turkey. We do that every Thanksgiving. Was that depressing to you? Seeing that one turkey kind of taken out of circulation, a turkey you couldn’t eat.“
In return, Obama earned a very heartbroken glare from Galifianakis, but he even made this better with his own cheeky smile that said he was expecting this reaction from the actor. But, as iconic as all these jokes may be, at the end of the day, the one truly praiseworthy is none other than Zach Galifianakis himself for not only taking all of these fat jokes but even penning them down!
Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis can currently be streamed on Prime Video.
