We have to be very careful about what we say out there to the masses in the entertainment industry because people are listening to every word, and they take it to heart.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think, as a woman and as somebody in the entertainment industry, we have to be careful what we're putting out there and what we're trying to say.
We in this entertainment industry try to act like we're so super powerful. we're not being honest, because we're human, and in our humanity there's a little fear.
People say a lot of things in the heat of the moment. But in the entertainment business, ya never say never.
We're in this entertainment business really to give the audience what they want.
Nowadays, people in the entertainment industry can have a louder voice than politicians, and I think it's important that they use that voice to say something positive or to give a voice to somebody that's had theirs taken away.
The entertainment industry is vast and is a reflection of the society we live in.
You don't realize it until you go out and take a look, but there are so many ways in which sexism is just allowed in our culture, not just in the entertainment industry. It's just allowed to be there, and that's not acceptable anymore. And I think it's really important to be very vocal.
I don't know, people take chances on stage. It's a big free speech zone, a comedy show. So sometimes things happen, you say things that are a little bit off the edge.
That's one of the great things about comedy: we can - and should - say the things that other people aren't supposed to say. If we didn't do that, if we didn't push against those limits, we'd just be standing around onstage and yelling.
This is where you see the truth of entertainment, because it is not edited. You see it on stage as it is happening. Even if we fall down or forget our words, it's a part of live entertainment.
