watch me on tv
Skinny Pretty Love
Jan 7th
Earlier this week I did an interview over at RTTV America (the US arm of the Russian TV Network) about the BeautifulPeople.com holiday weight gain purge of 5,000 members. I was a guest on The Alyona Show and it was big fun. Here’s a clip from that interview… Please notice how I am able to work a CVS reference into just about any conversation. Why haven’t they called me yet? Seriously. I need to be their national spokesperson.
I recognize I’m obsessed. I’m OK with it.
Very Funny Weekend — a photo essay
Jun 21st
Just letting you know up front — this one’s an epic ;)
I just got home from Chicago and the inaugural TBS/Just For Laughs Chicago Comedy Festival. I wasn’t in town long enough to catch most of the shows I wanted to see, but from what I hear the shows were great. I went there and came home in less than 24 hours. Here’s a recap of what went down… :)
Patron and Grey Goose bottles just chilling on the dresser — the hotel they put us up in was way nicer than anywhere I should ever be staying. I did my best to ignore all the fancy liquor and yummy treats, but I did take full advantage of the fluffy robe! ;) Check out the thumbnail on the far right… TBS gave us a swag bag that contained — among other things — a bottle of Remy and a flask shaped like a cell phone. It even came with a cell phone carrying case. Perfect for sneaking alcohol into sporting events and concerts carrying small bits of water to the gym. BOY do they know comics!!!
The show taped at Zanies Comedy Club in Old Town Chicago. During our downtime, I got to spend some time with the hilarious Wendy Liebman. I’ve been a huge fan for years, and it was a pleasure to be working on the same show with her. When I first got into comedy I sent her an e-mail thru her website just introducing myself and telling her what a big fan I was and how excited I was about stand-up, and she wrote me the nicest e-mail back and was so encouraging. I’m relatively sure I printed it out and have it somewhere… I should try and dig it up!
As far as the actual show and taping, Murphy’s Law was in full effect — as it often is on big days in my life… More >
Me talking about sports on television!
May 27th
Last week, as you know I was a guest on Comcast SportsNet’s Washington Post Live. Well here’s the video of that appearance! I’m seriously trying to figure out how to get some type of job over there. How much fun would that be?!?
My first commercial(s)!!!
Apr 6th
Yay! Hooray! Here are the two commercial spots I wrote and shot for TBS that I blogged about here a couple months ago. I think they came out pretty well!
P.S. The diet will start tomorrow. Or maybe Monday… Monday’s a good day for diet starting ;)
I’mma be on TV, Jazmine Sullivan, and is this shirt the devil?

Sorry in advance for the epic. Eat some now, save some for later…
So, I went up to NY yesterday for what I guess you would call a ‘commercial shoot.’ It was a project for TBS where instead of having their corporate advertisers run 30-second commercials, they ask comics to write bits around the products and perform them in comedy club settings. I guess it’s a more subliminal type of advertising and the spots air primarily during the weeknight comedy block. Not sure if I did a good job of explaining this, so here’s one that cutie patootie Jeff Dye did last go-round:
That make sense? So our companies were Pop Tarts, Cici’s Pizza and I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. It was a challenge to write jokes that portray all these products in a completely positive light because my instinct as a comic is to poke fun at things, point out what’s bad or dumb about them…Â Strangely, that doesn’t seem to work when you’re writing ads for a product. Imagine that. ;)
We shot in Brooklyn and I headed right back to DC as soon as I wrapped the shoot. I hate driving on bridges but in order to get home I had to drive the Verrazano and the Goethals. I was OK on the Verrazano…
But that damn Goethals Bridge… OMG!!! It was smooth sailing leaving Brooklyn and all the way down the Jersey Pike, but as I’m merging onto 95 South after crossing the Delaware Memorial I hear a loud CRACK! I can tell whatever it was happened to my car, but I had no idea what it was. As I slowed down I heard a crunching sound and thought that I had run over a bottle or something. But my tires seemed to be OK… I had to cross 4 lanes of traffic to get to the shoulder and when I finally parked the car and turned around I realized that my rear driver’s side window was completely blown out. That crunching sound was the glass falling out onto the highway. More >
Me on Bob and Tom TV
Dec 17th
I know I was supposed to find out when the Bob and Tom episode aired so that anyone interested could watch, but I was a loser and I didn’t. However, my friend Herbie managed to catch it and tape it for me and I Youtubed it for y’all! Doing Bob and Tom is always fun. If you’re not in one of their radio markets, check out their podcast or watch them weeknights at midnite on WGN if you get that channel.

OK, OK…

I posted a short clip of my performance on Ellen. It’s to the right in the menu bar.
Enjoy!
And you’re welcome. ;)
Chattin’ about my worst day ever on my very best day ever
Sep 17th
So maybe it’s a little extreme to say that Monday was my ‘very best day ever.’ I mean my wedding day and the birth of my first and third children should probably be at the top of my ‘very-best-day-ever-ometer…’
Wait… What’s that? I’m single and childless? You are so right…
Monday WAS my very best day ever ever! Here’s the part of the interview where I tell Ellen about my worst show ever. Feel free to laugh at my pain.
