Renee Puente and Matthew Morrison

Jennie Garth
Jennie Garth matched the red carpet in a gorgeous lace dress.
Mitzie Verne
James Franco's grandma Mitzie Vergne, who he talks about often and sometimes features in his comedy videos, walked the red carpet at the event. Never ever has a cane looked so good.
Andy Dick

Samm Levine
Samm Levine, who starred with James Franco on Freaks & Geeks, stepped out to support his pal.
Busy Phillips
Busy Phillips, another one of Franco's pals from Freaks and Geeks, showed up in a purple ensemb. Wonder how her newborn daughter Cricket is doing at home...
Betsy Lou Franco
James' mom Betsy Lou is one proud lady. We're wondering if she roasted him too because if so that's amazing.
Aziz Ansari
Aziz Ansari, who most recently appeared with James in This Is The End, pretty much made the party.
Paul Scheer and June Diane Raphael
Paul Scheer from The League and his lady friend got all dressed up for the event.
Jeff Ross
Comedian Jeff Ross walked the carpet dressed as James' character, Alien, and with the best accessory of the night—four ladies dressed as the gals in his James' film, Spring Breakers.
Sarah Silverman
It ain't a roast without Sarah Silverman! The comedienne looked gorgeous in a ladylike blue dress.
Kate Walsh
Want OK! each day? Sign up here!
Not sure why Kate Walsh from Private Practice was in attendance, but maybe she and James had the whole playing-a-doctor-on-TV thing to bond over?
Anders Holm, Blake Anderson, Adam Devine and Jonah Ray
The roast just wouldn't have been the same without Anders Holm, Blake Anderson, Adam Devine and Jonah Ray from Workaholics.
Stephen Rannazzisi
The League's Stephen Rannazzisi showed up solo.
James Franco
And here he is, the man of the hour! James looked dapper, as always, walking the red carpet in a three-piece-suit and bowtie.
Mitze and James Franco
Grandma's boy! James and Mitze shared a moment inside the show.
Jeff Ross and Seth Rogen
Something seems funny! But when Seth Rogen and Jeff Ross are involved, that's a no-brainer.
Bill Hader and James Franco
Bill Hader and James are clearly having a moment.
Andy Samberg and James Franco
Quick, who's hotter? Andy Samberg or James Franco? It's too close to call.
Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen
Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen miiiight have been the funniest two guys to attend the show. Not playing favorites or anything.
Nick Kroll
Nick Kroll is like, the prince of comedy, so it definitely made sense that he was invited to roast James.
Amy Poehler
It wouldn't be a comedic event without the one and only Amy Poehler!
James Franco
Here's James again, probably thanking everyone for coming out and for making fun of him. It's all out of love, of course! Tune in September 2 to see how it all goes down!
