![]() If a male comic whipped out his penis, or rubbed his groin against a female audience member, people would be outraged. And yet this woman had been hired to perform on the same stage as Aziz Ansari and Amy Schumer, two people who through comedy are brilliantly taking down rape culture, racism, sexism and a host of other social issues. It was clear that all of Bridget's "comedy" would qualify as sexual assault. I was horrified and the people in my immediate vicinity seemed to be horrified as well. I would be able to tell you more, but I turned away at this point. She stands on top of them so their heads are under her dress. ![]() Bridget goes into the crowd and continues to belt out her songs, while rubbing her breasts in the faces of male audience members. This seemed a bit off but also not quite at the level of sex crime in my opinion (though legally it is a sex crime).Īnd then things escalate. It wasn't all that funny to me-I'm more into cultural criticism a la Aziz and Amy-but it wasn't offensive either. If you haven't seen Bridget's act, here's a quick overview (of what in my opinion is a painfully long 15 minutes): Bridget is a classically trained vocalist who sings rock ballads about her reproductive organs. I really wanted to like Bridget, because I like supporting female comics in general, but it seems her act was not so much comedy as a musical sexual assault. She was one of two women performing that night, the other being superstar Amy Schumer. So yesterday I saw Bridget Everett perform at the Oddball Comedy Fest in Mountain View.
