The president of CBS handpicked me for the 'Star Search' revival, which Arsenio Hall hosted. He picked 12 comics, and I was the only female. I always look to that as inspiration.

Really, it hasn't changed for female comics; it's still hard for females to really enter the game.

That's the one thing I have to say to females. If you don't have a certain look, or if you look a certain way, they won't accept you.

If you think about how many headlining female comics are out there, you could say 15, maybe 20?

My wife happens to be probably the greatest working woman in comedy. I can't think of anyone who even approaches her achievements and her abilities.

In comedy, it's so subjective; there is no right or wrong.

I know that I'll joke around to the last minute I get in the car. But once the helmet's on - it's sort of a cliche, but it's true - it's quite symbolic that that is 'go time,' and I'm ready to have some fun and be bad while I do it.

I get to do comedy for a living.
