if you ever start to feel too good about
yourself they have this thing called the
Internet
these are the funny ladies who always
make us laugh welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’ll be counting down our
picks for the top ten female comedians I
love being a woman feeling fresh soft
and fragrant makes me glad I’m myself
number 10
Chelsea Handler I have a question do you
guys think it’s okay to drink while
you’re pregnant if you’re planning on
giving the baby up for adoption kicking
off our list is the beauty and brains
behind the late-night talk show Chelsea
Lately and successful books like are you
there vodka
it’s me Chelsea Handler stick mainly
consists of regaling audiences with
tales of drunken evenings and one-night
stands no wonder she’s popular scoffs
always have to stick together yes yes we
do you should know number nine Sarah
Silverman I don’t have a lot of money
but I have more than you she is not
afraid to piss people off Silverman did
Saturday Night Live for one season but
it’s really her stand-up that makes her
a star if you can get past her voice
she’s part of a generation of women that
says taboos be damned
translation her best jokes are rape
jokes I was raped by a doctor which is
um so bittersweet for a Jewish girl but
she opened doors for the likes of
Whitney Cummings so now she’s got
competition
plus she’s Matt Damon
number eight gilda radner SNL has
produced so many talented women they
could have their own top ten list you
know that reminds me of a little joke
but seriously Radner was an original
not-ready-for-prime-time player but her
career was cut short by her untimely
cancer death in 1989 her influence is
undeniable as SNL stars like Mike Myers
and Tina Fey credit her with getting
them interested in comedy her versatile
fearless and loud performances one were
an Emmy in 1978 it’s always something
and I promise from now on I will do my
best say that you do pitch number seven
Roseanne Barr I know what you’re saying
Roseanne what has a has-been of your
magnitude been up to recently against
all odds
Roseanne just keeps getting work and by
odds I mean that voice
stand-up success sitcom supremacy
talk-show triumphs she even had a
cooking show I would rather eat than do
anything and in fact I’d say that eating
has cost me like my whole chance of
happiness yeah but it’s her role as one
of the first realistic working-class TV
moms that wins her the most fans plus
she gets points for being crass and
opinionated after all Roseanne’s nuts
number six Tina Fey according to a new
study women in satisfying marriages are
less likely to develop cardiovascular
diseases than unmarried women so don’t
worry lonely women you’ll be dead soon
we can’t talk about funny ladies without
a nod to Tina first female SNL head
writer improv genius Sarah Palin
look-alike I’m gonna ignore that
question and instead talk about Israel
let’s give credit where credit is due 30
rock rakes and awards even if nobody
watches it and at least 50% of women in
their 30s think their Liz Lemon
mission accomplished Tina Fey number
five will be Goldberg
first things first Whoopie can act and
she has the awards to prove it but her
blunt stand-up comedy is what got her
noticed everybody’s dick is in the news
bill cleansed it was in the news I was
so thrilled to know that he could I was
overjoyed she can impersonate different
ages races social classes you name it
Whoopi is definitely racy but she
manages to appeal to pretty much any
audience how else do you explain Sister
Act
the color purple Captain Planet and Star
Trek on the same resume perhaps the joke
was not funny no the joke was funny it’s
you dear number for Ellen DeGeneres as
you all know I’m an international cover
girl who would have predicted that this
comic would become one of the most
beloved daytime talk show stars Ellen’s
live sets were super successful and she
was the first female comedian to get
called over to Johnny Carson’s hot seat
my parents were extremely cruel to me I
remember one day I was coming home from
kindergarten well they told me was
kindergarten I found out later I’ve been
working in a factory for two years she
got to where she is with clean genuine
and likeable routines she also survived
coming out on her sitcom
is now absolutely everywhere dance on
Ellen
number three Joan Rivers fancy Vegas
lady you look at Nancy Reagan and you
know when she washes out her pantyhose
she washed at the whole pantyhose not
just a feet in the crotch like the rest
away she’s one of the hardest working
women in the biz even at her age her
trademark voice and acerbic wit have
helped her Lampoon celebs and herself
for decades it’s hard not to use words
like brash when talking about Joan and
that has gotten her into a fair share of
feuds bo Derek and Platt we talk kids
playing stupid she turned down the Helen
Keller story she couldn’t remember the
lines but like it or not she’ll always
be part of pop culture even if no one
can remember what she really looks like
number two Carol Burnett nobody does
sketch comedy like the multi-talented
Carol Burnett and nobody wears a curtain
rod quite like Carol either like her
friend and mentor Lucille Ball Burnett
dominated a primarily male industry with
superb physical comedy The Carol Burnett
Show was successful as a variety series
for over a decade because it was good
clean fun and because the cast members
were great at always making people laugh
especially each other there’s a rumor
going around the circus I’d dwarf from
the elephant were lovers
number one Lucille Ball there is no
beating the original Lucy takes the top
spot on our list because she inspired
almost every other entry so why don’t
you join the thousands of happy peppy
people and get a great big bottle of my
Amelia measurement remember that name my
Madame et met behind the scenes she was
a powerhouse and on TV she’s a wacky
clumsy redhead who is prone to crying
Fitz whether she’s filming a commercial
working in a candy factory or trying to
convince her husband to let her join his
act high jinks ensue and that’s why
she’ll always be known as the first lady
of television and the queen of comedy
and to those of you who spoke who said
such really wonderful things about me I
just wish you were all under oath
yourself they have this thing called the
Internet
these are the funny ladies who always
make us laugh welcome to watchmojo.com
