“God, I was disgusting!” – Ali Wong on why women’s bodies are the last taboo
“Offstage, she seems softer and more laid-back than her fierce and foul-mouthed standup persona. In the book, she recalls starting out: ‘I was very dirty back then. Even now, I’ll look back on those days and think: “God, you were disgusting.”’ Which is very funny if you have seen any of Wong’s comedy, because you will know how filthy she is now. In Baby Cobra, there are gags about anal sex and vaginal secretions; in Hard Knock Wife, there are jokes about the things she would like to do to their nanny if he was 25, male and ‘not ugly’.”
Ali Wong interviewed in the Guardian about her new book, Dear Girls.
