Nikki Glaser is one of the funniest female voices in comedy today. In July of 2022, she headlined her first HBO comedy special, GOOD CLEAN FILTH, which has been nominated for a Critics Choice Award for Best Comedy Special.
Nikki is also the host and executive producer of the hit HBO Max reality dating series FBOY ISLAND. And she is starring in, and executive producing, the E! half-hour reality sitcom WELCOME HOME NIKKI GLASER?
Previously, Nikki was host of Comedy Central’s first live daily morning show, YOU UP WITH NIKKI GLASER for SiriusXM. Nikki’s recent Netflix comedy special, BANGIN’, was released October 2019. BANGIN’ was the most watched specials on Netflix when it premiered.
Nikki was a standout at the Comedy Central Roasts of Alec Baldwin, Bruce Willis, and Rob Lowe, which led to her guest-hosting JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! and hosting the inaugural edition of the 2021 MTV MOVIE & TV AWARDS: UNSCRIPTED, which earned her stellar reviews. She also had memorable film and television roles in Judd Apatow’s TRAINWRECK, NBC’s AP BIO and INSIDE AMY SCHUMER, amongst others. And in November of 2022 Nikki was a triumph coming in third place on the 9th season of the hit FOX series THE MASKED SINGER.
Nikki has multiple stand-up specials and late-night tv appearances in which she jokes about her most humiliating moments as a woman in the modern world. Nikki’s past and current struggles with anorexia, depression, and anxiety are fair game in both her stand-up, and in-depth interviews with THE HOWARD STERN SHOW, WTF with MARC MARON, CONAN O ́BRIEN NEEDS A FRIEND and THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE. She has become a complete open book on mic - and not just for the laughs, she’s also adamant on being the empowering voice for women that she yearned for
as a confused adolescent.
