Diddy, Justin Timberlake, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, Jon Stewart, Kid Rock, and Nelly all bashing the guest of honor for charity. Ross has also written for some cool shows including the MTV Video Music Awards for hosts Jamie Foxx and Chris Rock, and the 2000 Academy Awards for host Billy Crystal. He also helped write the first season of The Man Show on Comedy Central and consulted on ABC's Whose Line Is It Anyway?
