Funny woman Iliza Shlesinger started off slow but has finally made it big as Comedy Central gave her the chance to have her own half hour special which she performed last night at half past ten in the evening. Iliza Shlesinger came into the stand up comedy officially when she won “The Last Comic Standing” event which immediately put the spotlight on her but she says that it isn’t easy to be a good stand up comedian.
An interview with Iliza Shlesinger gives us a little insight to what the woman thinks about the job and how it should be done. She says that people, stand up comedians to be more specific, cannot just take a break from the job because every hour that you spend not working is going to be an hour that puts you further under water. Of course those weren’t her exact words as she said that ‘when you’re not moving forward you’re drowning’ and it is this philosophy of hers that has got her working harder than ever.
She says that this half hour special was just the beginning of what she wants to do with her life and that she always wanted to make her career something that would make her money by doing something funny. Well now she is on her way to stardom in the comic industry and is hoping by next year she will have her very own talk show or something of the sort and although I do find her humor to be a little flat on the energy level I think with experience she will blossom into the comic that she is aspiring to be.
