Remember that Nikki Glaser roast of Tom Brady a few months back? 🔥
Some highlights on YouTube…
Nikki was already an established comedian beforehand, but that roast took her stardom into the stratosphere 🚀
And watching it, it’s easy to think she’s just a gifted joke writer and performer, probably fell out of the womb with a killer punchline.
But listen to what she said in a recent interview 👇…
All these roasts that I’ve done, I’ve always kind of done the same process where I hire a team of writers and I treat it like… if I was hosting the Oscars or something I wouldn’t do it alone… I wanted it to be a collaborative effort. I know that that’s how I’ve done great in the past…
So I instantly assembled a team… [got them to] start sending me jokes… and then I took that set out so many times to different clubs, every single place, and then meeting with writers afterwards in between sets, moving things around, oh let’s change that word… having these really intense discussions…
So, to prepare for that roast, Nikki hired a team of writers, then practiced and tweaked the material relentlessly in lots of different comedy clubs.
Excellent example of Sprezzatura 😎
Takes a lot of effort to make something appear so effortless.
