I love being a Givenik Ambassador. Not only does it give me a platform to discuss my favorite charities, but I get to talk about my other favorite topic - 'The Judy Show!'
I've done stand-up since I was 18 years old, and I absolutely love it, but I used to go onstage, and the audience was my peers. Now I go onstage, and I could be their mother.
As scary as it was being raised by one Jewish mother, I have to feel for my kids because they have two Jewish mothers.
Over the years, things got so bad between my mother and I, we stopped talking to each other and started communicating by putting Ann Landers articles on the refrigerator.
There is no reason to be ashamed of who you are.
Women are taught that if you want to be a lady, keep your opinions to yourself and be polite.
Women risked their lives for the right to vote. When I hear people say, 'Oh, I'm not gonna vote,' I just wanna tear their heart out.
The first time I did stand-up was on a dare.
Comedy is the most palliative way to make a point. People are more willing to listen if they can laugh.
Halloween is an opportunity to be really creative.
We never talked to each other in my family. We communicated by putting Ann Landers articles on the refrigerator.
I have a nice little house in LA. Well, the bedroom is nice. I have French doors in the bedroom. They don't open unless I lick them.
When I was a kid, I'd read about celebrities who didn't want to talk to their fans after a show. I told myself, 'That's terrible, and I would never do that.'
When I got a part in 'All American Girl,' in 1994, I remember thinking, 'Now I have a series, I'm not going to need to do standup,' but every night I'd go out afterward and get onstage somewhere.
