Seth McFarlane did what he does best when he shone a harsh comedic spotlight on Keith Urban's past struggles with addiction at a charity event.

Monday night, the Family Guy creator stepped up to the stage to present Robin Hood's annual charity gala at the Javits Center. As you can expect, he threw out some pretty risky jokes at the expense of some of the event goers, per Page Six.
Keith Urban was in attendance, as he had some shows lined up for the event. He performed a number of songs, including Chappell Roan's "Pink Pony Club." Of course, Keith killed it, but not without a shot from the comedian.
Standard protocol from a presenting comedian is for them to rip some of the audience to shreds, and although he made everyone laugh, some may say his joke aimed at Keith Urban was a little too far.
After Keith Urban had performed, McFarlane told the audience that he had to fill ten minutes of the show while the crew "sweep Keith Urban's coke off the stage."
Urban has been open about his drug addiction in the past, and it's likely still a sore subject. Of course, the country singer wasn't the only one to get a jab from the The Orville star. Not even Seth was safe from Seth.
Seth McFarlane Was After Everyone, Even Himself
Any comedian knows how to make fun of themselves more than anyone else.
He joked that it was "very strange to be the poorest guy here." Although he did comment on Family Guy, that's somehow still running. He's "glad it's still on-air," as "it will always have a special place in [his] wallet."
Honestly, though, I have no idea how that show is still going strong. Although I will continue to watch the bootleg snippets shared on Instagram or YouTube. Sue me.
He even threw a joke at Ellen DeGeneres, who recently secured headlines after fleeing the States after Trump's election.
McFarlane said that she "left right after the election, and now she's the nicest person in France." A double burn for sure. She actually fled to England, which only insults France further.
