Private Notes
In clubs and theatres across the country, Lisa Lampanelli calls audience members colored, queer, bald, fat, and old. Do they get offended? Angry? No! They laugh uncontrollably and demand to know when she'll be back in town. After watching this hour-long concer, filmed live at Rascal's Comedy Club in West Orange, New Jersey, you'll see why! A cross between Don Rickles, Archie Bunker, and a vial of estrogen, she's got a bawdy personality, all-out honesty, and the insult comic's most essential quality--undeniable likeability.
Called "Comedy's Lovable Queen of Mean" (New York Times) and "Howard Stern on estrogen" (Toronto Star), Lisa Lampanelli is the insult comic for a new generation, and this is her first one hour special for Comedy Central.
Lisa Lampanelli's shocking and hilarious appearances on television from "The Tonight Show" to Comedy Central roasts have made her the hottest comic in the country. 'Dirty Girl' is her second Comedy Central special.
The lovable Queen Of Mean is at it again...and no one is immune as Lisa takes off the gloves and delivers an unrelenting barrage of political incorrectness and 'shoot from the lip' observations. Never shy about engaging in controversy, she deftly navigates the social taboos, stereotypes, and cultural differences that even the boldest of today's comedians would rarely broach. Lisa's ability to both rile and charm her audience is what has helped her rise to the pinnacle of the comedy scene as witnessed in this performance, originally taped for HBO.
Tough Love is complete with her signature one-two punch liners and mean-spirited insults. Even her husband isn't immune from Lampanelli's wrath, as she affectionately refers to him as "Jimmy Big Balls." Tough Love wraps-up with Lampanelli's first ever "The Roast of the Worthless Americans," an appropriate kick-you-where-it-hurts roast at pop culture's favorite love-to-hate celebrities which include Kate Gosselin, Paris Hilton, the cast of Jersey Show and many more.
