We drink some Rombauer chardonnay because we love the oaky, buttery kiss of a classic Californian chardonnay.ġ1:30 p.m.: As per usual, our night together has gone on a little longer than expected. Gotta celebrate the moments!ħ:30 p.m.: Uh oh! Zach wants to come over after happy hour. We’re celebrating the season two green light with martinis and a fancy caviar toast they have. And, also, so we can get started with the party and wrap it up in time for a respectable bedtime. “We were all so excited.”ĥ p.m.: HAPPY HOUR! I meet my friend Zach at Nougatine at 4:45 p.m., so we can get corner bar seats right as doors open. “A very, like, Rudy moment, carrying us off the field,” she says. Like, I don't know, ‘Make me another drink, bitch,’ and you have to make that into a song.” It sounds like fodder for a future scene in Somebody Somewhere-the green light for season two having arrived at an auspicious time, as Everett details below. “If it were up to me, I would just lay on the couch and stare at the wall all day, so I need to have deadlines and goals.” The group also has a hook challenge-“which is some funny shit that somebody said at the previous songwriter’s. “I have my songwriter group on Tuesday, and I do not have a song,” she says of her monthly meetup with a handful of friends, designed to light a creative fire under everyone’s ass. The same is true for Everett in this three-day wellness diary, where ’70s soul warms up a frigid walk. And all of us-in the audience, on the couch-get to bask in the raucous glory. (In addition to her 2015 Comedy Central special, Gynecological Wonder, she has toured with Amy Schumer, turned up in the original Sex and the City movie, and played a karaoke-slaying mother in 2017’s Patti Cake$.) The aforementioned bosom aside, there’s another elemental through line: “For Sam and for Bridget, there is a connection to the world through the world of music,” Everett says. She is calling from home on the Upper West Side, not far from the restaurant jobs she juggled for years while building momentum onstage. “Big tits with a tender underbelly? I think that's what they have in common,” Everett says, laughing. There is Bridget the downtown cabaret legend-spangled, sweaty, outrageously mesmerizing-who channels the collective id with lyrics like “What I gotta do to get that dick in my mouth?” Meanwhile, on Somebody Somewhere, her semi-autobiographical show now quietly winning hearts on HBO, she plays Sam, a forty-something woman adrift in her Kansas hometown, who comes alive at an after-hours variety show, belting out power ballads from her high school songbooks. Upcoming projects include: Netflix’s Unbelievable, Living With Yourself, and AJ and the Queen.What makes a feel-good show? Bridget Everett has figured it out, via two tonally distinct personas. Bridget has played comedy and cabaret festivals around the world and recently joined Patti LuPone with the New York Philharmonic. In 2015, she won an Obie Award for her original show, Rock Bottom, at the Public Theater which she created with Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman. She’s a co-host on Amy Schumer’s podcast 3 Girls, 1 Keith playing on Spotify. Gynecological Wonder, her one-hour comedy special is on Comedy Central. Film appearances: PATTI CAKE$, Trainwreck, Sex and the City, Fun Mom Dinner, Little Evil and next year’s Breaking News in Yuba County. Select television appearances: Inside Amy Schumer, Camping, Love You More, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, The Tonight Show, Lady Dynamite, Girls, At Home With Amy Sedaris. No two shows are the same, ever.īRIDGET EVERETT is a powerhouse singer, actor, writer and comedian. Prepare yourself for motor-boating, money notes and Chardonnay soaked memories.
Dripping with hard-earned sweat in her sparkling and revealing House of Larréon dresses, she swigs from a bottle in a paper bag while telling stories about her dog Poppy, her dysfunctional family and her struggles with incontinence. Her in-your-face comedy is mixed with one outrageous rocking and original song after another. Bridget has been seen in a string of recent television shows and movies, but to experience Bridget, is to experience her live.
Her legendary and take-no-prisoners live act is a perennial sold-out hit and has garnered a faithful cult following. This fall, Bridget Everett and The Tender Moments barrel into Joe’s Pub.
