Hasty Pudding roasts Ben Platt, youngest Man of the Year


(AP) — Award-winning actor and musician Ben Platt took a quick jab at President Donald Trump late Friday while being honored by Harvard University’s famed Hasty Pudding Theatricals as its 2020 Man of the Year. Students dressed in drag and elaborate costumes bestowed the golden pudding pot — and a sparkly bra — on Platt, but not before Hasty Pudding members poked fun at his various roles in theater, television and film. Platt sang Nina Simone’s classic “Feeling Good” and later gave a political speech about whether a hot dog is also a sandwich. It was during this speech that Platt proclaimed “anyone but Trump 2020,” as the celebratory roast neared its end. “In this day and age, I feel like we should be really leaning towards connection and togetherness,” Platt quipped, as he concluded that a hot dog should be considered a sandwich.
