Comedians, TV stars and musicians took their jabs at celebrity billionaire Donald Trump during the "Comedy Central Roast of Donald Trump" filmed Wednesday in New York.

"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane played Roast Master. MacFarlane is the first person to emcee consecutive Comedy Central Roasts - he previously helmed the skewering of David Hasselhoff, which aired in August. Trump's roast will air March 15.

Among Trump fans in attendance at the show - filmed at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York - were rapper/actor Ice-T and his wife, Nicole "CoCo" Austin.

Also present were singer John Legend, with model Chrissy Teigen.

The billionaire media mogul had to endure a verbal battering throughout the two-hour show. Among those taking jabs were:

Comedienne Lisa Lampanelli, a veteran of Comedy Central roasts, took part.

Longtime talk-show host Larry King salutes the cheer of the crowd after roasting Trump.

Actress Marlee Matlin, who is in this season's cast of "Celebrity Apprentice," used her signing skills to make fun of Trump.

Rapper Snoop Dogg took time to praise Trump saying, "We both love money, we both know how to get it and we're bosses."

Comedian Gilbert Gottfied took to the microphone to take over speaking duties for Marlee Matlin's signer.

Veteran roaster and comedienne Whitney Cummings also took part in the festivities.
