|May 24, 2024
COMEDIAN NIKKI GLASER NEVER WANTS TO OFFEND. "I NEVER WANT TO say offensive or raunchy [things] or push the envelope, because that speaks to some kind of comedian who wants to rile people up."
-
Instead, on her new HBO comedy special Someday You'll Die (May 11), she wants to hit you with "honest and really funny, precise, acute jokes throughout." Those jokes are about classic topics discussed in ways unique to Glaser: sex, being a woman and struggles "with trying to be my authentic self, but also molding to what other people want of me." On that, she's clear about not wanting things women are often expected to, like kids and a home. "Why do people want kids? I think it's narcissistic, and that's OK. I don't want to buy a home, but I wanna want to buy a home." Also the host of CW's FBoy Island, Glaser ultimately knows she's able to explore the topics she does in comedy because of luck.
