I was very lucky when I started doing comedy because I hadn't seen much stand-up. I just got up on stage and did it without thinking.

Coming from the Midwest, I didn't know about stand-up as an art. I just thought stand-up comedians were old men in suits talking about their wives.

Comedy is just one of the many professions that women are taking over.

I never wanted to be a model. I never wanted to be a serious actress. I started off doing comedy. I did a stand-up comedy camp at the Laugh Factory, and I started out on Nickelodeon.

Stand-up comedy is a raunchy profession.

I started doing stand-up in college.
