[ laughter ] so, i would fake pass out. [ light laughter ] i got really good at it. i would do a couple little lazy twirls and then on the way down, i would grab a girl's hair for witness. [ laughter ] remember me. and my mom got worried she was like, "katherine, i'm going to take you to see a a cardiologist for your fainting," because my mother believed in me too much. [ laughter ] and i didn't tell her i was faking it. i let them run hours of tests on me. and then this sweet little heart doctor told my mother and i that i was his first patient that he ever diagnosed with a personality disorder [ laughter and applause here's the best part, though he still gave me an inhaler. [ laughter ] he was like, "i don't know it could be allergies, but it's probably narcissism. [ laughter and applause

now go ahead go ahead, take a little puff of this air milk every time you're having a hard time not being the center of attention.

[ laughter ] before comedy though, i was a nanny, because i'm passionate about eating rich people's food [ laughter ] and sometimes the parents would make comments about how quickly the fridge emptied and i was like, "oh, okay. hold on. first of all, you don't know how hard it is to be a a stay-at-your-home mother." [ laughter ] they were a wealthy family in the south, so all their kids were named after nature. i had a lily, i had a forrest, and i had a treasure map iii [ light laughter ] i was a great nanny, though, because i learned from having a great mom.

and i love talking about my mom. she passed away when i was 22 years old. it's hard to say a joke after this now because people are thinking it's sad that i'm older than 22 and i still dress like this. [ laughter ] i dress like a male figure skater from 1994 [ laughter and applause but i still hear from my mom you know, i don't know if you've ever gotten a sign from up above, but the other day, i was driving down the interstate just scrolling through instagram -- [ laughter ] and i saw this ad for discounted botox so, i just commented, "ugh okay, mom! [ laughter ] my mom was a nurse for a a plastic surgeon. and when i was a teenager, my mother told me i needed botox. because sometimes a mother's touch hurts. [ laughter ] and she would come home with these little vials of expired botox, and then she would chase me around the house with a a syringeful

yeah, it was our little game we called it freeze tag. [ laughter and applause instead of counting to ten, you just stay frozen for three to four months. [ light laughter ] but i am obsessed with instagram. my friends and i, we're obsessed with those influencers that'll go to tulum, mexico, and they'll take a yacht excursion. so we were like, "we've got to do that. so, we put all of our money together and we went to fort lauderdale. [ laughter ] and we wanted to take a yacht excursion, so we found a man on craigslist to take us on his pontoon into the ocean, where you can't run away and that does sound sketchy but we knew we were safe because his name was salt daddy.

we were twerking to tim mcgraw [ laughter ] and we were feeling so cute because salt daddy was taking a lot of videos. [ laughter ] just being a classic dad, you know, filming all the proud moments on his ipad. and then right at that moment, this huge boat pulled up, and it was full of these just gorgeous women and salt daddy was about to get on their boat. and i realized, i was like, "wait, i'm not ready for a new mom yet. so, i pulled my best move, and i fake passed out. [ laughter ] but on the way down, i for real fell overboard and as i was going under, i could hear everybody shouting my name. and i saw salt daddy dive in to save me. and my lungs started to fill up with water, and then my heart started to fill up with all the attention i was getting.
