As we told you earlier, former NFL superstar Peyton Manning was spotted this weekend with conservative author Ann Coulter, both of whom were at the Comedy Central roast of Rob Lowe.

Except it was Ann who was the target of vicious abuse at the comedy event and not the actor:

That “You could kill yourself” line was from comedian Jimmy Carr. Audience members reportedly booed Ann when she promoted her new book, “In Trump We Trust”:

Variety has a brief round-up of the hate:

Not even the audience felt bad for Coulter’s slaughtering. During her performance, she was booed when promoting her new book, “In Trump We Trust,” and roaster and “SNL” star Pete Davidson got more laughs than she did when making a sarcastic face at a joke of hers that fell flat.

Here’s just a few of the many jokes flung at Coulter:

Nikki Glaser: “The only person you will ever make happy is the Mexican who digs your grave.”

Peyton Manning: “I’m not the only athlete up here. As you know, earlier this year, Ann Coulter won the Kentucky Derby.”

Davidson: “If you are here, Ann, who is scaring the crows away from our crops?”

Lowe: “After seeing your set tonight, we’ve seen the first bombing you can’t blame on a Muslim.”

Jeff Ross: “Ann is against gay marriage. What is your thinking on that? If I can’t get a husband, they can’t either?”

Jewel: “I do want to say as a feminist that I can’t support everything that’s been said tonight. But as someone who hates Ann Coulter, I’m delighted.”

Rob Riggle: “If Ann Coulter is here, someone must have said her name three times. Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!”

And perhaps the harshest, from Jimmy Carr: “Ann is one of the most repugnant, hateful, hatchet-face bitches alive. It’s not too late to change, Ann. You could kill yourself.”
