Nikki Glaser at the Top of Her Game
Briefly

Comedian Nikki Glaser has rejuvenated the art of roasting, exemplified by her acclaimed performance at Tom Brady's special. Despite her success, including hosting the Golden Globes and embarking on a nationwide tour, Glaser grapples with feelings of inadequacy and impostor syndrome. She feels compelled to establish her worth in comedy right away, particularly in overcoming stereotypes about female comedians. Her journey reflects the ongoing challenges within the comedy world, particularly regarding gender perceptions.
"It just never goes away-that feeling of not being worthy, or being thought of as less than."
"Part of it is I just know that people think women aren't as funny, so I have to prove it right away."
