that would stink if you knew when you
were gonna die if you knew the date of
your death because that means each year
you not only have a birthday you’d have
a death day hi I’m Veronica the
watchmojo.com and today were chatting
with comedian a LaBelle who is right
here sitting to her left a death day you
walk home open up the door they’re all
your friends surprised you studied law
you pass the bar exam and then you went
on to practice comedy why the change it
seems like you’re using your practice of
law in comedy because you’re taking
facts that we think would lead to common
sense and then you switch it to
something that even makes more sense I
don’t know I think it just comes with
your brain I just came with my brain
you know sort of like you buy something
and you know it’s an application like
computer has an application and you use
the application I guess the applications
in my head I am a hypochondriac that’s
why I can’t stand the question how are
you how am i I don’t know how I am I
have to hope the right this very second
my kidneys are purified
I have to hope that my thyroid is
regulating that my pancreas is pan
creating I have to hope that my heart is
beating you may say obviously my heart
is beating because I’m alive yeah but
you don’t die the second your heart
stops beating it takes a second or two
my market Mike my heart could have
stopped beating right now okay it didn’t
I think probably part of it is OCD you
know I definitely I think I have a
definite OCD I’ve been told that extreme
OCD you don’t even pass out the second
heart stops beating you got the second
your heart stops beating art beats it
beats it beats for what you’re doing in
between beat non beat beat not beat beat
Nadi’s beat nom be sweet nod beat these
sticking with a thought obsessively I
probably does lead me to you know those
kind of jokes cuz I don’t let things go
easily I’ve always you know and then
when I was a child it was called
stubbornness so you don’t pass out the
second your heart stops beating if
people pass out the second their heart
stop beating everybody walking away now
you’ve discussed everything in your set
so what are you talking about now the
same stuff because I’m lazy and I’m
creative I need to get a girlfriend but
I don’t have the strength to have a
girlfriend I mean you have to make sure
that she’s happy that she’s satisfy
she’s that girlfriend she’s a customer
I don’t know I’m also very fearful and
neurotic I talk about that but I’m also
so fearful and neurotic part of me
doesn’t want to say what I’m talking
about because I feel I’m giving it away
and then people come to the show and
they’ve already heard it and so it’s
like the joke is over having a
girlfriend is like running a business it
really is like owning a store and that’s
why I could never keep a girlfriend cuz
the second I got one I want to open a
chain what’s the best piece of advice
that a comedian has passed on to you he
didn’t share with me but I heard him say
it on a CD and I’ve met him he’s a very
nice guy Jerry Seinfeld obviously a very
funny guy but he said on a CD like he
was at some kind of like comedy
convention and all these comedians were
talking about like what agent can I get
what manager I can get all these things
engine and Jerry made I thought a great
point said it’s not about all that it’s
just doing the work you know the work
not a funny an agent a manager really
but
not of that but he was making the point
of doing the work of being creative and
making a great act is there anything
you’d like to leave us with there’s
nothing in fact I’d like to take back a
few things because I don’t really have
much of a sense of self you know I can
only respond to questions I’m more like
a ventriloquist dummy I’m the dummy and
I’m only alive when someone’s talking to
me well thank you Alice great having you
how great exactly was it was it awesome
no that’s good
