KEY POINTS:
Why should we see your show?
Well I could say it sold out the Wellington Fringe completely and got nominated for an award. But, I think if I say history of prostitution, audience porn stars, group orgasms, clamped breasts, pizza sex and a penis puppet, that might be more convincing. All you never wanted to know about the sex industry.
Tell us a joke in 25 words or less.
What do you call an epileptic wrapped in lettuce?
A Seizure Salad. (I can say that as I'm an epi.)
Who is the funniest person you know and why?
It changes every day, for example, yesterday a friend made me nearly vomit laughing when a spider the size of my face crawled up her neck and sent her into a breakdance routine of screaming and convulsing that left her with a scratched face, me crying with laughter on the floor and a spider in need of years of therapy. Genius.
Borat - yay or nay? Why?
Yaaaaaay! Any male willing to plunge his face into hairy testicles and get the god-awful view we ladies have to put up with regularly is a must see.
When were you last embarrassed?
Writing that last answer.
What's the worst line you've ever delivered?
I suggested a new reality TV series for Lebanon called Dancing with the Hizbollahs - didn't go down as well as you might imagine.
What were you like as a child?
I was trying to decide between the careers of a) a ballerina and b) a shot-putter. I went for the former believing I didn't have the thighs for the latter. Ahhh the innocence of youth.
If you weren't a comedian you'd be?
Miss New Zealand. Well to my Mum anyway.
