I live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I live in a 950-square-foot apartment with one bathroom and two sons.
I love being a Givenik Ambassador. Not only does it give me a platform to discuss my favorite charities, but I get to talk about my other favorite topic - 'The Judy Show!'
Women are taught that if you want to be a lady, keep your opinions to yourself and be polite.
We all know showbiz isn't easy, but being a comic - especially being a female comic - can be quite punishing.
There is nothing - nothing - like writing a great joke and having that joke kill onstage.
There is no reason to be ashamed of who you are.
When Joan Rivers walked through the curtain on 'The Tonight Show,' nobody in my house was allowed to utter a sound. Her gait was full of pep and purpose and her voice unmatched.
Unfortunately, I cook for two boys, and they don't care what it looks like on the plate, and neither do I.
I've done stand-up since I was 18 years old, and I absolutely love it, but I used to go onstage, and the audience was my peers. Now I go onstage, and I could be their mother.
I try to win the love and approval of strangers, since it didn't work with my family.
When I was a kid, I'd read about celebrities who didn't want to talk to their fans after a show. I told myself, 'That's terrible, and I would never do that.'
When you see another tall woman on the street, you nod, sort of like Orthodox Jews.
Women risked their lives for the right to vote. When I hear people say, 'Oh, I'm not gonna vote,' I just wanna tear their heart out.
To have a job making people laugh really is the greatest thing.
