I just started laughing at that, mainly because nobody
else was laughing, and I was that uncomfortable. ͳey were
only laughing when somebody was heckling me, and I was
so nervous.
Lesbian: “Get your funky ass off the stage, dick lover.”
Tiffany: “Oh hell no! See, you can heckle me if you
want, but don’t be trying to get me oĉ stage. I’mma
stay up here my whole time, and I’mma get ALL my
money.”
I did that. I stayed on the full fifteen minutes.
When I got oĉ the stage, I felt like a piece of meat. If you
think only men can make a woman feel horrible, you don’t
know shit about other women. I felt about the worst I had
felt in a long time. And the dude I was with, he was no help:
Friend: “Yeah, I don’t know about this. If you get
reactions like this all the time, I don’t think you should
do comedy.”
I was pretty depressed. I was reconsidering whether this
was for me.
Then the promoter handed me fifty bucks.
I just tanked onstage, the worst I have EVER tanked in
my comedy life, and I got $50?!?!
This was great!
I knew right then, in the middle of all those lesbians
