Ugh

First of all, 20% is even higher then gladd claims and 10x more than factual. Secondly, Considering vegans as gay was a real big stretch. It was fine it was a little rambling and incoherent and a lot of black jokes that I just did not get because I don't have to deal with wigs. The name thing was interesting. The way she downplayed 911 was interesting. None of that is funny of course like the majority of her act but it is interesting. It's interesting that she lived in New York and she didn't feel attacked on 911 because she's Muslim. She felt scared afterwards because new yorkers were upset with muslims in general. Just not a very amusing set.

This should be rated more highly....!

As a female Muslim who has also dabbled in stand up comedy, I identified with a lot of her material.She has a very soft yet strong and clear voice with a compelling way of delivery (that would be very suited to stage/theater acting). It wasn't any physical antics but rather her voice and delivery that kept me glued to my seat as I didn't want to miss a single line.I was chuckling throughout and found myself laughing out loud more than a couple of times throughout her performance (though it did get a bit somber near the end).I feel like more people should see this and it should be rated more highly on IMDB.

Just Awesome and Enjoyable!!!

When I first saw the title, I was a bit skeptical what she was going to talk about, and if I would actually find it funny.I must say that she swept me off my feet. Normally I don't watch foreign comedy shows because of the way they speak, and I dOn't really relate with what's being said, but her words were very clear, even as an African I could easily understand her jokes. The way she spoke and shared her life experiences were very enjoyable.At first I was just listening but as she went on, I had to stop other activities and give it all of my attention. There were no dry moments.I am definitely looking forward to more comedy shows from her.A MUST WATCH!
