Kevin Hart Did Not Hold Back After Hearing Comments Kai Cenat Made About His Height

by

On a recent episode of Stephen A. Smith and Molly Qerim’s sports talk show, First Take, tensions ran high, particularly with the arrival of Kai Cenat, the “Streamer of the Year” winner. Known for his bold actions and off-the-cuff remarks, Cenat garnered a large following but also attracted critics. This TV appearance was no exception, as a spirited debate ensued, even involving some playful jabs at Kevin Hart‘s height. Later, Hart responded directly to the comments.

The argument went awry when Kai Cenat doubted his host’s basketball skills by challenging him to a hooping contest. This upset the ESPN analyst, who found it audacious of Cenat to question his baller abilities. In response, Stephen A. Smith began questioning Cenat’s own basketball prowess and likened him to Kevin Hart, given Hart’s short stature as a comedian. A viral video shared on the First Take X account showcases Cenat’s reaction to the comparison.

Kevin Hart? You just compared me to that little leprechaun?

Standing at 5 feet 4 inches tall, Cenat is slightly shorter than Kevin Hart, who is rumored to be 5 feet 5 inches (with shoes on). However, after these remarks were made, the actor from “Jumanji” didn’t shy away when responding to a Twitch streamer’s opinion. TMZ managed to catch up with him and Hart responded boldly.

Tell Cenat I said go fuck himself!

In appearance, it might appear that the comedian was upset with the social media sensation during their exchange, but a closer look at the video reveals him grinning while cursing him out. It seems that this interaction was merely playful between friends, as they both worked together on “Good Burger 2”. Just moments before chiding Cenat, Hart even acknowledged his admiration for the media personality, calling him “Dope as hell” to the paparazzi.

Ever since his appearance on Kai Cenat’s Twitch live stream, the star of “The Man From Toronto” seems to have taken on a mentor-like role for the social media influencer. On iHeart Radio’s “The Breakfast Club” podcast, Hart complimented Cenat’s comedic skills and ability to create relatable and entertaining content that keeps people engaged. (Notably, this includes the moment he reacted to Snoop Dogg rolling a joint in less than 20 seconds.) The comedian also revealed he provided the streamer with some seasoned advice and suggested ways for him to expand his audience.

In a contrasting scenario to Kevin Hart’s lighthearted banter, Stephen A. Smith and Kai Cenat’s exchange took a more serious turn when it came to the topic of basketball greatness. Initially, they were discussing the timeless debate: who is the greatest of all time in basketball between LeBron James and Michael Jordan? As a die-hard Jordan supporter, Stephen A. Smith voiced his longstanding stance, while Kai Cenat, a young social media sensation, passionately defended LeBron James, even going so far as to assert that he surpasses the legendary Chicago Bulls player.

Regarding Kevin Hart, it’s not shocking that he didn’t get upset over Kai Cenat’s comment since Hart often makes fun of himself, even about his height. Moreover, Hart appears to maintain a positive outlook when others jest at him or mimic him. For example, Hart appreciates Bryan Cranston’s impression of him. In fact, this recent exchange between them could be a potential subject for humor the next time they meet privately or collaborate on a livestream.
