Comedian Nikki Glaser came in hot with her monologue on Saturday Night Live, making jokes about sex trafficking, rape, and child molestation. The first-time host joked about having “resting Ghislaine face,” and said her Gen Z female friends are afraid of human trafficking. “That was like, not a fear of mine ever in my twenties. In my twenties I just feared like, good old-fashioned rape, you know?” Glaser joked.

Although the material will have come as no surprise to fans of Glaser’s edgy material on her Comedy Central roast appearances over the years, some viewers found the jokes a step too far, especially since Glaser’s first sketch post-monologue focused on incest.

    It’s also Nikki Glaser, probably one of the most savage and unfiltered comedians working right now. You don’t bring her on without expecting people to make a stink.

      Just now started seeing her roasts on YouTube. My god, she’s a modern-day Don Rickles, nothing is out of bounds.
