It was calledTheRoast ofRob Lowe, but the Comedy Central special seemed to focus more on conservative author Ann Coulter.

Coulter got skewered by stars ranging from host David Spade to singer Jewel.

Comedian Pete Davidson perhaps had the harshest burns, saying,Ann Coulter and no black people? What are we roasting? A cross? and called her aracist c**t.

Calling Coulter racist seemed to be the theme of the night. Comedian Nikki Glaser said, Ann Coulter has written 11 books12 if you include Mein Kampf.

Spade cracked:She seems stiff and conservative, but Ann gets wild in the sheets. Just ask the Klan. Looks like shes having a good time --I havent seen you laugh this hard since Trayvon Martin got shot.

And if you thought Jewel was sweet, the singer-songwriter was actuallyone of Coulters most brutal roasters.

I do want to say, as a feminist, that I cant support everything thats been said tonight, she said.But as someone who hates Ann Coulter, Im delighted. She also said -- in the most explicit way possible -- thatCoulter was a reminder to gay men why they werent attracted towomen.

Jeff Ross told Chelsea Handler on her Netflix talk show that Coulter did not laugh at all during the taping, but she managed to poke a little fun at herself when she took the stage.

I want to welcome everybody to the Ann Coulter Roast with Rob Lowe, she said.Im just so overwhelmed with the love in this room tonight.

Things took a downward spiral from there, andCoulter made herself even more of a target when she began to hawk her new book, In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome! eliciting boos from the crowd.Coulter only got more jeers when she made jokes about Hillary Clinton.

Later, even Lowe himself teased Coulter.

Ann, after your set tonight, weve all witnessed the first bombing that you cant blame on a Muslim, he said.

Coulter later complained to the Hollywood Reporter that it seemed like Comedy Central had an agenda against her, starting with its interview on the red carpet.

Only Comedy Centrals interviewer went on and on about the KKK, sheets, burning crosses, David Duke and other really cutting-edge, original stuff like that, she said.

Then she tried to insult the channel by saying, Itprobably has something to do with Comedy Centrals corporate decision to move away from comedy --which is paying huge dividends with the Larry Wilmore and Trevor Noah shows.

She said she has no idea why she was invited and that shethought it was onlya stop on her book tour.

Ann Coulter Responds to 'Ambush' Comedy Central Roast

Ann Coulter was encouraged to commit suicide during Saturdays taping of The Comedy Central Roast of Rob Lowe.

Ann is one of the most repugnant, hateful, hatchet-face b----es alive, British comedian Jimmy Carr declared, as audience members cheered. Its not too late to change, Ann. You could kill yourself!

The conservative commentator eager to promote her new book, In Trump We Trust was one of nine celebrities invited to take pot shots at the star of The West Wing and St. Elmos Fire.

But it was Coulter, 54, who spent much of the evening in the hot seat at one point being labeled a two faced b----h and a transvestite whore.

Even Super Bowl hero Peyton Manning got in a few jabs, announcing, As you all know, earlier this year, Ann Coulter won the Kentucky Derby!

The event, hosted by Roastmaster David Spade, was taped at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, Calif. and featured NSFW routines by Manning, singer Jewel, Karate Kid actor Ralph Macchio, comic Nikki Glaser and Comedy Central star Jeffrey Ross.

Most joked about Lowes failed TV projects and the infamous sex tape he made with a 16-year-old girl in 1988.

But many of the evenings best zingers were aimed directly at Coulter.

David Spade: Ann hopes the Republicans can hold onto the House so she can still haunt it.

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

Jewel: As a feminist I cant support everything thats been said tonight. But as someone who hates Ann Coulter, Im delighted.

Ralph Macchio: I respect you. You are the one female commentator who is not afraid to stand up ... to take a leak.

Nikki Glaser: Ann, you are awful. The only person you will ever make happy is the Mexican who digs your grave.

Coulter sat expressionless through much of the evening and drew audible boos during her seven-minute set when she mentioned Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

I am so overwhelmed with the love in this room. she joked, attempting to lighten the mood.

As a right-wing hate-monger, it is fantastic to be at a big Hollywood shindig with all these glittering celebrities that isnt a fundraiser for Obama.

Earlier in the evening, Coulter told Fox411 she has never seen a celebrity roast and only agreed to appear on the program to promote her book.

There is nothing you can tell me to discourage me, she insisted. My whole career has been an Ann Coulter roast.

The Comedy Central Roast of Rob Lowe airs Monday, Sept. 5 on Comedy Central.

The 10 best burns from Rob Lowe's roast

But why was non-comedian Coulter on the Sony Pictures studiosstage in the first place, you might ask? Lowe answered that question backstage after three hours of insults were hurled at the show's taping. (The Roast of Rob LoweairsLabor Day on Comedy Central.)

For Coulter's part, she made her motives clear."Im only here for all the love and respect I have for Rob Lowe and all of the talented performers tonight," she said sarcastically. "It has nothing to do with the book I published four days ago."

And so, Coulter's presence in the room filled with a liberal-leaning Hollywood crowdshifted the focus of the material from Lowe whose sex tape, legal issues with nannies, failed TV shows and feminine features were all fodder for jokes toCoulter's general awfulness.

"I'd like to welcome everyone to the Ann Coulter roast with Rob Lowe," Coulter said, acknowledging her special attention.

Many of the insults aimed at Coulter are not appropriate for afamily-friendly website, but here are some jokes we can share:

"Ann Coulter wants to help Trump make America great again. You can start by wearing a burka.You have a face that would make doves cry," said roast veteran Jeff Ross, who was dressed in purple as Prince. "That voice, it's like fingernails on a chalkboard in an inner-city school you wanna defund," he said. "Ann's against gay marriage. What's your thinking on that? If I can't get a husband they shouldn't, either?"

Saturday Night Livecast memberPeteDavidson quipped,If you are here, Ann, who is scaring the crows away from our crops?

Former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning had a joke about her appearance, too: "I just realized that I'm not the only athlete up here tonight. As you all know, earlier this year Ann Coulter won the Kentucky Derby."

There were also lines about Coulter's political views."Ann Coulter has written 11 books, 12 if you countMein Kampf," said comedian Nikki Glaser. "Ann, you're awful. The only person you will ever make happy is the Mexican who digs your grave."

"She seems stiff and conservative, but Ann gets wild in the sheets. Just ask the Klan," said Roast Master David Spade. "It looks like shes having a good time. I havent seen her laugh this hard since Trayvon Martin got shot."

Folk singer Jewel won the crowd over with this:As a feminist I cant support everything thats been said tonight," she said, "but as someone who hates Ann Coulter, Im delighted.

But British comedian Jimmy Carr really let Coulter have it. He called her "repugnant," "hateful," and "hatchet-faced." "But it's not too late to change that," he said."You could kill yourself."

Lowe, who was a bit shaken at the end of the night after having to relive his troubled past in front of his family, didn't think any of the jokes were out of line. He likened the event to a professional sport. "If youre in the NFL, hit hard. This is the NFL, youre here to hit. There are other places to do soft jokes if youre on the Comedy Central Roast, you better bring yourA-game."
