Sydney Sweeney can take a joke.

The “Christy” actress, 28, and her rumored new beau, Scooter Braun, attended Matt Rife’s comedy show in Los Angeles Tuesday night, where jokes were made about Sweeney right in front of her, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The outlet reported that Sweeney and Braun, 44, arrived at the Laugh Factory with a group of friends just before the show started and sat in the upstairs VIP section. Sweeney was at Game 4 of the World Series at Dodger Stadium earlier in the night.

The comedy show started around 10 p.m. with opener Jackson McQueen, who jokingly called the upstairs section where Sweeney and Braun were sitting “the Groupon section.” 

The second performer, Erik Griffin, did not hold back with his jokes about Sweeney.

Griffin, 53, poked fun at Sweeney’s hit HBO series “Euphoria” and said that her “titties are always out” on the show.

“She’s at the pharmacy and her titties are out — it’s wild,” Griffin joked. “For no reason.”

Sweney, per THR, doubled over in laughter over the bit, as did Braun and the rest of their friends. Other people in the audience reportedly turned their heads to Sweeney’s direction to see how she reacted to the jokes.

Griffin mocked “Euphoria” again, saying that “there’s too much” d–k on the series.

“That wasn’t in the trailer,” he joked of the program’s many full-frontal scenes.

Rife took the stage later on but didn’t make any jokes about Sweeney.

Instead, his set reportedly covered subjects such as impotence, masturbation and a story about a time he and his best friend went to a live sex show at Amsterdam’s red-light district. Rife also chatted with a couple, Matthew and Lily, seated in the front row.

According to THR, Sweeney and Braun left the show shortly before Rife finished his set after midnight so they could beat the rush of people at the door.

The Post has reached out to Sweeney, Braun and the Laugh Factory for comment.

In August, Rife publicly defended Sweeney after she got backlash for her American Eagle jeans ad and for selling bar soaps made from her bathwater.

“She’s learning that the internet is full of absolute garbage losers who will twist anything you say into a c-nty misinterpretation,” the comedian tweeted. “People are awful.”

Sweeney and Braun first sparked dating rumors back in June when they were spotted together at Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s star-studded wedding in Venice, Italy.

In September, sources confirmed Sweeney and Braun’s relationship status to People and TMZ, claiming that the couple are “casually hooking up.”

The pair have stepped out together numerous times in the past few weeks, including in Lake Tahoe over Labor Day weekend and on a double date with Sweeney’s parents at a Los Angeles Halloween event.

“It’s not a casual relationship. It’s game on, it’s full throttle,” a source told Page Six. “They are together.”

The insider added that Braun is “very happy” with Sweeney, who broke off her engagement to businessman Jonathan Davino earlier this year.
