The Situation may be MTV's highest paid reality TV star, but the abs-blessed Italian has no comedy chops according to several reports from the event last night.

"The Situation" was joined by Roast participants Snoop Dogg, Whitney Cummings, Larry King and others to give Donald Trump a Comedy Central send up.

Wincingly bad lines nearly had the Situation hooked off stage, with Roast veteran Jeffrey Ross pulling a mitzvah, joining Mike "Situation" Sorrentino on stage trying to help the struggling reality actor salvage a less than acceptable comedic performance.

The LATimes reports that host Seth MacFarlane warned the crowd to keep watch on the "Jersey Shore" star "in case Donkey Kong throws a barrel at him."

The Times reported that Sorrentino's jokes "were so bad that one Comedy Central exec suggested that most of his act might be cut from the final broadcast of the roast, which airs March 15."

From the Times report, it seems as though MacFarlane had the best lines. MacFarlane said that Sorrentino and Snooki were a good couple, as 'Italians are known for grinding organs with monkeys."
