What was so wonderful about her, and what set her apart, was that, however clever her songs were, she never seemed to be saying "look at me, aren't I clever?". There was a great humanity about her humour, which invited us all to share in it. She was very special. R. I. P.

Been watching her sketches and comedy ever since I found them, and will continue to do so… only now it will be bittersweet knowing she's no longer shining her light in this world, but another one instead, and that we only have the fantastic comedy and hilarious memories left :( 💔 xx

Look at her face at 1:09 after dropping 2 racial slurs in her first 2 lines- she was a comic genius! The reason people get in trouble for 'non-PC' jokes isn't because we're all too sensitive- it's because it's incredibly hard to do well, and lazy comedians try to get the shock value without earning it with an intelligent payoff. What a legend.
