He ended up calling the award ceremony and its attendees all “marshmallows” and even said, “They’re soft.”
“I get it, but go**amn, can we f**king laugh at ourselves?” continued the 57-year-old.

His recent revelation should come as no surprise as the comedian even tried to defend his joke after a video of the pop sensation went viral.
In fact, just days after the event, Greta Gerwig claimed that he was not wrong about his Barbie joke. However, Swift’s expressions proved she was not impressed.
