I Continue To Be Very Shy. I

There's A Danger Zone If You Take Yourself Too Seriously. It's A Terrible Trap To Fall Into. I Think It's The Death Of Comedy.

I Don't Read Anything About Myself.

I've Been A Performer In The Public Eye For Many Years Now And It's Much Darker. It Feels So Worse Now. It Feels Heavy; It's Difficult To Deal With. The Hatred Is Unbelievable, But I Actually Feel A Lot More Compassion For The Journalists And People Who Aren't Used To That. At Least On Some Level, It's Been A Part Of My World For A Long Time, So I Can Handle It. I'm Not Going To Say That I'm Used To It, Because I'm Not. I Think It's Really Difficult For People Who Are Just Doing Journalism And Receiving Death Threats On A Very Consistent Basis.

It's Great When You Have People Who Will Speak Passionately And Honestly About What They Are Doing.

I've Talked To A Lot Of Other Women In The Field Of Comedy And None Of Us Feel Like Being A Woman Has Been A Barrier To Success In Our Lives. I Can't Claim To Feel Like I've Been Under Some Man's Thumb In Comedy. I've Sort Of Always Done My Own Thing For Better Or Worse, And Have Been Lucky Enough To Be Able To Perform Ever Since. So I'm Not Surprised By All The Articles, But I Don't Know If It's Necessarily True. It's Not Like We Haven't Been Around.
