Actor Jon Hamm was roasted and honored as Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals' Man of the Year for 2025. He received the Pudding Pot award and participated in a series of comedic skits, including channeling his iconic 'Mad Men' character, Don Draper.
Hamm credited Saturday Night Live” creator Lorne Michaels with bringing out his funny side and said Don Draper was the most challenging and fun character that he has ever playedActor Jon Hamm , who rose to fame as ad executive Don Draper on the AMC series “ Mad Men ” and more recently appeared in “Fargo” and “Landman,” was honored Friday night as the 2025 Man of the Year by Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals.
Before accepting the Pudding Pot, Hamm endured a roasting at the hands of two members of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals. They mocked his height, poked fun at the fact he had not won an Academy Award and suggested many previous winners were better looking. The best bit, though, was making Hamm channel his “Mad Men” character, Don Draper, and pitch several items. Among them was selling car insurance to a baby driver and a pen to a woman who had just landed her dream job and was promptly fired. Then, there was selling a lifetime voucher for bath time with Harry Potter.
“Usually when you’re surrounded by your loved ones on a hospital bed and they’re crying and the machine has a flat line on it, it’s not great,” he joked.
