This week, Heels in the Hills' resident mommy blogger (and one of the most loving, selfless, inspiring and dedicated mommies I know) Barbara King is sharing a hilarious ode to televisions everywhere. Here is her open letter apology for writing them off pre-kids... (I know I won't be that good of a mom to even PRETEND I will write TV off. I'm already looking forward to putting the TV on for my kids. When I was a kid, I loved "Reading Rainbow," and also "Cry Baby" starring Johnny Depp. They will appreciate that kind of art, too.)View Article
Super excited to share that my friend Laura Bell Bundy's upcoming comedy website, Skits-O-Frenic, was officially announced yesterday (in The Hollywood Reporter, natch). I've been writing and performing in a few sketches for the site, and am so stoked. Not that long ago, I was watching her on Broadway in "Hairspray" and "Legally Blonde" in complete and utter awe, and now I get to work with her. Pinching myself. Check out the first episode here, co-starring none other than CHARLIE SHEEN. (Guys, this post is full of name-dropping. Not gonna lie, I love it.) The site launches October 21, and I'll be sure to keep you updated when the sketches I worked on air!View Article
Got the Monday blues? Watch this, it will make you feel better! Depending on where you work, probably NSFW (unless you're living the carny lifestyle of chasing dreams in Hollywood, and your "office" is your dining room table. Like yours truly.) My friend Jimmy Fowlie originally performed this Chaz Dean impersonation in the Groundlings Sunday Company, and recently filmed it in Tony and my backyard. Tippi, Maggie and I make cameos, but Lucy has the real star turn as "Coconut Head." ENJOY.View Article
I am SO.EXCITED. to share "The Declutterate," a parody of "The Graduate" that appears in the Bad Moms In Movie History web series for HGTV's ulive. I play Elise and get to cry and scream, two of my favorite pastimes as of late, as we approach our wedding! My good friend and fellow Groundlings Sunday Company alum Carrie Seim wrote and produced it, and it is as hilarious and wonderful as she is. WATCH, OKAY?View Article
In the latest installment of Coffee With Friends, I'm super excited to introduce you to my dear friend Leah Sprecher, who I met, wrote and performed with in The Groundlings Sunday Company. She's a hilarious triple threat - not only can she write and act, she can also sing and dance (so I guess she's technically a quadruple threat) - and is gorgeous, AND is a former Rockette. But you can't hate her because she's also a kind and wonderful human. She wrote and stars in a one-woman show called "Old Lady Parts" that incorporates all of the above-stated talents, and it is spectacular. I saw it when it first premiered at The Groundlings, and you can see it tomorrow night, June 9th, at The Rockwell here in L.A. (use discount code OLDLADY20 courtesy of Leah!) I'm chatting with her here about how the show came to be, and her advice for aspiring comedians...View Article
