Nikki Glaser Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Nikki Glaser:

The best stuff - the most interesting stuff - usually happens when I allow myself to be in the moment and working from that space.

Things end in this business. Shows get canceled, or you walk away from them - but most likely, things get canceled.

Nikki Glaser

I am a woman, so I never want to hide that or be like, 'I'm one of the boys,' because I'm not. I am aware of our audience. We always aim for the right combo of not hitting people over head but still getting our message across.

Nikki Glaser

People are just so insensitive because they're ignorant; they don't understand, so they're scared of what they're ignorant of.

Nikki Glaser

Why am I sharing this part of my life when it opens me up to judgment? But part of me wants to share that part of my life because I think non-monogamy is a normal thing for human beings to want.

Nikki Glaser

Some of my favorites include 'Walking the Room' and 'Never Not Funny' and 'FitzDog Radio', Greg Fitzsimmons' podcast.

Nikki Glaser

I'm sure I've already made some mistakes that I'll wish I could take back.

Nikki Glaser

I have always been scared of confrontation. My therapist says it stems from my fear of abandonment.

Nikki Glaser

The best stuff - the most interesting stuff - usually happens when I allow myself to be in the moment and working from that space.

Nikki Glaser

I think I deal with my anger toward my relationship or about my relationship or about my friendships or my family - I deal with it on stage in a passive-aggressive way, and that can be very harmful if it gets back to them, which it always does.

Nikki Glaser

I remember the 'Jenny McCarthy Show' being kind of funny, and I remember her being just like one of the boys. I remember her being counter to everything I thought girls should be on TV, or whatever. I kind of liked her vibe.

Nikki Glaser

As far as how I approach the humor, I think the best comedy is going to happen when I'm myself and act organically to a news item or situation.

Nikki Glaser

Someone told me I looked like a young Tonya Harding recently, as if 'young' would soften the blow.

Nikki Glaser

I wasn't a good-looking child. I got screwed out of the genetic deal. My sister looks like a model. I think that's why I'm a comic. I'm deeply insecure, since I was always feeling ugly. I wasn't a healthy child. I had poor self-esteem. That's why I need people's approval.

Nikki Glaser

I was going to go to a Gathering of the Juggalos but decided that wouldn't work. They would know I was there to make fun of them. It would be like me going to a Trump rally.

Nikki Glaser

I've talked about my relationship without consulting my boyfriend about whether or not he wants that talked about, and I've also taken a story that has happened with us and, for comedic purposes, exaggerated it or changed it in some way that made him look not great.

Nikki Glaser

A lot of being a woman in this business is about how you look... That's not why we're even in this business; that's not what people want from us. We're valuable because we're funny and because we have a voice and a point of view.

Nikki Glaser

Up until recently, I've said, 'I don't notice the sexism in the industry.'

Nikki Glaser

My standup is years and years of me working things out on the road. I'm really proud of it! A lot of it is about, well... I don't know why I feel this way, but I feel like every special or show I do is some variation on how I feel like I'm not a girl, not yet a woman.

Nikki Glaser

My boyfriend and I have finally learned how to embrace confrontation as something that will only help us as a couple.

Nikki Glaser

Funny is funny. If it's funny enough to women, it will be funny to men. I think that's been proven by Broad City and Amy Schumer. They're killing it.

Nikki Glaser

I think people are afraid of the concept of open relationships. Like, 'I will not accept this.' They don't have to! No one is telling them to. But it might work for other people.

Nikki Glaser

I'm in a relationship and have never been on Tinder as a single woman, but from what I have seen, I think it is always good to have a picture with an animal to show that you are kind.

Nikki Glaser

The more you work in this business as a comedian, the closer you get to just being yourself onstage, on camera, the more well received you are.

Nikki Glaser

I started out splitting my time between the Kansas City and St. Louis comedy scenes, which both had bluer sensibilities than other cities that I've worked.

Nikki Glaser

I've been saying inappropriate things since I was a kid.

Nikki Glaser

I was lucky enough to find stand-up really early in life. And I'm so grateful that I did, because the second I found it, I was like, 'I know what I want to do'.

Nikki Glaser

I like putting myself in uncomfortable situations.

Nikki Glaser

My sister was very, very beautiful and I was very not. Doing comedy is the greatest thing ever because you don't have to do that, and I've since learned to let go of that.

Nikki Glaser

I had a guy on Facebook for, like, years just asking if he could PayPal me money, and of course I have to say no when, really, I'm just like, 'Why wouldn't I? He doesn't want anything for it.'

Nikki Glaser

A college degree was very important for them; it wasn't for me. So I picked English because I'm fluent. I thought it would be the easiest to do.

Nikki Glaser

College is good discipline. That's what I learned there: pull an all-nighter, get it done, and get an A. I'm the biggest procrastinator, and I learned how to be an efficient procrastinator.

Nikki Glaser

I love what I do, but living in one place for an entire year and not being on the road constantly was glorious. The road lifestyle is not ideal for a woman who's about to be thirty.

Nikki Glaser

All my life - middle school, high school - I've always been worried what are people going to think.

Nikki Glaser

I was inspired by people telling me I should be a comedian. I tried it and had a really good first set, so I was like, 'OK, I'll do this forever'.

Nikki Glaser

The transgender bathroom thing - it's just so obvious that people are scared of what they don't understand. It's like, 'I don't want to deal with the fact that some people might have been born in the wrong body.'

Nikki Glaser

Make eye contact with cute strangers. Give guys your email. Email is safer than a number, or at least it feels that way.
