Ann Curry's Dirty Stand-Up Comedy. (Yep, That's Right.)

thumbnail icon: Ann Curry's Dirty Stand-Up Comedy. (Yep, That's Right.)

Apparently, Ann Curry's greatest fear is stand-up comedy, so in a bizarre morning show stunt, she did her first comedy set at Caroline's Comedy Club in front of an audience, and today they showed it on The Today Show. And she went blue! If you've always wanted to see Ann Curry imitate her Japanese mother telling her that men need sex and calling her a slut, wow is this your lucky day!

According to Al Roker's bad joke, Ann is going to eat nitroglycerin next. I bet it'll be funnier! (Actually, to be fair, that wasn't the worst stand up anyone's ever seen, it was just a tamer version of Margaret Cho's bread and butter. But Ann Curry should never mention sex!)

She basically is just copying the Margaret Cho mother impressions, right? Shoot me in the head. Now.

That wasn't half the disaster that I thought it would be.

i get it, making fun of thick asian accents is funny! maybe i should become a stand up comedian, too. i bet if i, a white male, went up on stage and spent 5 minutes making fun of how dumb asian people sound, people would think i was hilarious, too. right? right?!

I liked the escalation that Gabe brought to the table with the Double Dog challenges. I feel like with just a few more we could enter the territory of a truly emotionally scarring event. And I have no real problem with that.

WTF do you mean she "shouldn't talk about sex" ?? Ann Curry is about the hottest 50-something on TV. With that beautiful face and slender body she's got I would pay to see her at a comedy club doing a REALLY dirty routine ... her favorite way to cum ... sucking c*ck ...

I am surprised that people are concerned about Ann Curry talking about sex but mention nothing about making fun of her japanese mother in the face of NBC having all these public service announcement about tolerance. Isn't this a double standard?
