Cameron Esposito on side mullets and socially conscious stand up
Fast rising LA-based stand-up comic Cameron Esposito leaves it all on the stage.
If Jay Leno's endorsement of Cameron Esposito is any indication, the future of comedy is an outspoken lesbian sporting a side mullet.
The fast rising LA comic joins Jian to talk about her debut on network television (where she first grabbed Leno's attention), why she isn't afraid of hecklers, and how she mines her personal life for material.
"If you have crossed eyes and you have to wear an eye patch for eight years of your childhood, you better be pretty great at pirate jokes -- otherwise your life is going to be terrible," she tells Jian.
Watch Cameron Esposito performing on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson -- the network television debut referenced in the interview.
Plus, here's her more recent appearance on Conan.
