She is such an intelligent and talented comedian.

[@SBJ452]

Why aren’t they laughing more! She is so funny and spot on. 😂

[@dialachahine3817]

Anyone else noticed how the subtitles went "Or Dave Chappelle he converted a bomb, he's very cool" When she was talking about Dave Chappelle converting to islam?

who brings a baby to such an event? ffs

[@Casper50002]

I'm glad this video popped up in my feed. I saw you yesterday, maybe the day before, on Katie Halper. It was awesome! 💛

[@annhalton1963]

How rude if those people to bring their babies.

[@Rcrc522]

The baby is killing the vibe. Who brings a baby!? It’s completely selfish for the parents to do so.

[@Casper50002]

Kevin Bacon! 🥓 Omg, girl! 😂. Great set. You kill!

😂 cousins marrying. What's that one joke about 'pump-kin' 🎃

[@تونسيفينيويورك]

After Palestine joke, I thought she got it, but she fell into the shallowness.

[@lempira1421]

She is courageous but not funny I give her props for trying but when your family tells you funny doesn’t mean you really are just your family being supportive Only watch half the video can’t keep watching more
