Nikki Glaser wasted no time roasting Leonardo DiCaprio in her opening monologue at the Golden Globes.

“Leonardo DiCaprio is here for ‘one man bun after another’ … what a career you’ve had, countless iconic performances, you’ve worked with every great director, you’ve won three Golden Globes, an Oscar and the most impressive thing is you were able to accomplish all of that before your girlfriend turned 30. I mean, it’s just insane,” the comedian, 41, joked during her monologue on Sunday, January 11.

“Leo, I’m sorry I made that joke, it’s cheap,” she continued. “I tried not to but, you know, we don’t know anything else about you, man. There’s nothing else, open up. ”

Glaser went on to joke she had struggled to find ammunition to mock the One Battle After Another star, 51, about in his personal life.

“The most in-depth interview you’ve ever given was in Teen Beat magazine in 1991,” the FBoy Island host complained. “Is your favorite food still pasta, pasta and more pasta?”

Smiling DiCaprio then gave a playful thumbs-up.

Before the Globes, Glasser had vowed to roast some big name actors but admitted it was a delicate balance to not go too far.

“I am a huge fan of these people. It’s easy for me to take down the newer batch of actresses and actors who are younger than me. It’s like, ‘OK, I can make fun of you. I’m like a veteran.’ But when it’s people that I grew up admiring, it’s a different approach this year,” the Dancing with the Stars alum admitted.

“You have to be very delicate about making jokes that aren’t going to ruin anyone’s night. But you also want to give the people at home something to laugh at, and you want to poke fun at the people that they’re dying for you to make fun of,” she continued. “People at home want you to make fun of the A-listers.”
