Lisa Lampanelli

Friday, November 7, 2014 | 8pm

 

Heralded as “more than a standup – a standout” by comedy legend Jim Carrey, Lampanelli is a cross between Don Rickles, Archie Bunker and a vial of estrogen. She has won accolades from Howard Stern, who called her “a true original and a brilliant comedy mind who’ll steal the show every time.”

 

Lisa recently appeared in her latest one-hour special Tough Love which premiered on Comedy Central and is now available on CD/DVD. Cementing her rise, Lisa recently joined 17 other celebrities on the newest season of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice.

 

Lisa’s rise to the top of the comedy food chain began in 2002 when she was the only female comedian invited to skewer Chevy Chase on the NY Friars Club Roast on Comedy Central. She soon became one of the few white comedians to perform on BET’s “Comic View,” cementing her huge crossover appeal. A year later, she rocked Comedy Central once again in her back-to-back appearances on “Premium Blend” and on the enormously rated “Roast of Jeff Foxworthy” — again, the only female invited to roast the man of honor.

 

Lampanelli joined the ranks of comedy greats with her 2009 HBO comedy special Long Live the Queen and that same year, released her first autobiography, Chocolate, Please: My Adventures in Food, Fat and Freaks. As a writer, Lisa also pens the monthly Women column in Playboy Magazine.

 

This equal opportunity offender is a regular on late night television and a frequent guest and guest host on Howard Stern’s Sirius satellite radio shows. She has also parlayed her love of Broadway into her own one-woman show, which premiered in early 2013.
