I was homeless for a little bit. I was on people's couches, but it was an amazing journey. I got to make people laugh all the way.

I know that for me I have to get out of the way and let God take control.

For my first wedding, I cried all the way down the aisle. My fake eyelash came off. My nose was red. My eyes were swollen. I'm not one of those pretty criers.

My grandmother taught me that accomplishments meant less than what you left behind. I started to ask myself what impact my comedy would have on people's lives. And that changed my act. I got cleaner. I stopped talking about generic stuff like airplane peanuts and started speaking the truth about my gift.

I can't swim and I'm terrified of drowning, but I still love being by water - just not in it.

Wigs have always been a part of my life and have become a staple accessory in my closet. I can remember being a little girl and hearing all the commotion in my house from my mom, aunts and grandmother when picking out their wigs for the day. It was such a good time for them and part of their everyday beauty routine.

A lot of people say it's cathartic to cook, and I'm like, 'How is it cathartic washing all these dishes?'
