We dont get it in the U.K., so Im always watching clips of it on YouTube.
I was like, Theres this guy thats onSNL.
I dont know what is about him.
Its not like hes very attractive, but I just want to fuck him.
I want to get to know him.
No, no, nah, nah.
It literally was just like,Yeah.
I am not hot enough to date a normal comic because normal comics can date movie-star models.
Do you know how unfair that is?
Its not like Amy Schumer is dating Ben Affleck, you know what I mean?
Its so not fair.
So then I was just like,Theres no hope for me.
Theres nothing wrong with Colin and Scarlett.
I just wish I could get a Michael B. Jordan, but I cant.
I cannot get someone as hot as Scarlett.
Thats what needs to change.
Im making a stand, because Pete Davidson shouldnt have got that many hot girls.
Id fuck him myself, but thats not the point.
The point is the caliber of women he got is great, and we should reverse that.
Women should get that caliber of men too!
All women, whatever they want.
So, yeah, thats a manifesto.
If you even Google British comedians, its all white guys.
Maybe there are a couple white females, but its mainly white guys.
To the world, British comedy is being a Monty Python, and its so much more than that.
I just want to change that.
I want to be included in the conversation when you talk about your greats.
We dont have that in Britain.
We dont have a pool of Black, successful millionaire legendary comedians in Britain.
We dont, and I want to be one of those.
Then last year, I met a girl, and shes really, really sweet.
I was just thinking,Huh?It was just the most surreal thing.
I was like,What the fuck?I remember writing like, Congratulations!
and thinking,What did I …
So Im not changing the joke, but I need to tell …
This is Larry Davids wife!
So were chatting on the phone, and I was like, Congratulations on the wedding.
I have something to tell you.
Youre going to come and watch my show,To Catch a Dick.
I have a joke about your husband.
And she was like, Really?
I was like, Yeah, and I wrote it before I met you.
Can I tell you it?
She was like, Yeah, what is it?
So I told her, and she started laughing and was like, Hell be fine.
And I was like, Yes, Mr. Larry David.
And he was like, What is it?
He and his wife are lovely.
