JEFFREY ROSS

AGE: 42

THE 411: The raunchy insult comic is a roast-master – he's burned Pamela Anderson, Flava Flav and Bob Saget, besides making audiences roar on TV's Weeds and The Sarah Silverman Program.
PARTNER: Edyta Silwinska
IN ON THE JOKE: "I'm in the same competition now as a Grammy winner, an Emmy winner, an Oscar winner, a Super Bowl winner ... I'm not really sure how I fit in," jokes Ross. "I still think I'm being punk'd a little bit."
