For nearly two decades at clubs across the country, and as the host of three hit podcasts, Nikki Glaser has honed her shockingly honest, no-holds barred style of comedy, solidifying herself as one of the funniest voices in comedy today.
Glaser just wrapped her global THE GOOD GIRL stand-up tour, which kicked off in January 2023 and she just announced THE ALIVE AND UNWELL tour with dates from May 2024 until December 2024 around the country.
On May 11th, Glaser returns with her highly anticipated second HBO comedy special, SOMEDAY YOU'LL DIE. In July 2022, she headlined her first HBO comedy special, GOOD CLEAN FILTH, which was nominated for a Critics Choice Award for Best Comedy Special.
In March 2021, Glaser launched THE NIKKI GLASER PODCAST for iHeartMedia and Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network, where she provides a fun and brutally honest look into pop-culture and her own personal life in weekly episodes.
Currently, Nikki hosts and executive produces LOVERS AND LIARS (formerly FGIRL ISLAND), which premiered on the CW on April 11. LOVERS AND LIARS is the female spinoff of the hit HBO Max reality dating series FBOY ISLAND, which Nikki hosted and executive produced for three seasons. The Washington Post hailed FBOY ISLAND as "deliciously twisty" and TIME called it a "compelling and clever masterpiece" with "smart execution" noting that, "An advisor to the women and a gentle antagonist to the FBoys, Glaser, a comedian, brings just the right level of self-aware humor." Season one of FBOY ISLAND had the biggest premiere weekend for an HBO Max Original reality series since the platform's launch.
Nikki took her love of reality TV to the next level by starring in, and executive producing, the E! half-hour reality sitcom WELCOME HOME NIKKI GLASER? Uprooted from her fast-paced Hollywood lifestyle, Nikki returns to her hometown of St. Louis where she embarks on a hilarious and often uncomfortable journey of self-discovery. Unfiltered, relatable, and unapologetically herself, Nikki navigates friends, family, and romance as a homegrown local celebrity.
Previously, Nikki flexed her over-sharing muscle as the host of Comedy Central's first live daily morning show, YOU UP WITH NIKKI GLASER for SiriusXM, which ran from February 2018 to October 2020. Nikki's most recent Netflix comedy special, BANGIN', was released in October 2019. BANGIN' was the most watched special on Netflix when it premiered. Nikki hosted, co-created and executive produced the critically acclaimed and daring comedic show, NOT SAFE WITH NIKKI GLASER, for Comedy Central and NIKKI & SARA LIVE for MTV.
Nikki was a standout at the Comedy Central Roasts of Alec Baldwin, Bruce Willis, and Rob Lowe, which led to her guest-hosting JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! and hosting the inaugural edition of the 2021 MTV MOVIE & TV AWARDS: UNSCRIPTED, which earned her stellar reviews. She also had memorable film and television roles in Judd Apatow's TRAINWRECK, NBC's AP BIO and INSIDE AMY SCHUMER, amongst others. In November 2022 Nikki was a triumph coming in third place on the ninth season of the hit FOX series THE MASKED SINGER.
Nikki has multiple stand-up specials and late-night tv appearances in which she jokes about her most humiliating moments as a woman in the modern world. Nikki's past and current struggles with anorexia, depression, and anxiety are fair game in both her stand-up, and in-depth interviews with THE HOWARD STERN SHOW, WTF with MARC MARON, CONAN O'BRIEN NEEDS A FRIEND and THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE. She has become a complete open book on mic for the laughs and as the empowering voice for women that she yearned for as a confused adolescent.

I was so excited to see her in person. I think I've seen all her specials multiple times. I watched her TV show when she was home with her parents. I really like her as a comedienne. But, I was a bit disappointed in this show. It was good and entertaining, however I was never really blown away as I expected. Her opening act was awesome - high energy and entertaining all the way through. Total laugh fest from beginning to end. I saw a post about this event where someone said that his was the best performance of the night by far. Perhaps Nikki was having an off night. Perhaps she wasn't up for the two shows scheduled that night. I'm still a fan and I would go see her again. Maybe I expected too much, who knows. It is what it is and I was just a bit let down.
She was awesome but if you are expecting something clean or conservative then she is not your gal. She was so fun and funny.
The show only had 1 headliner and Nikki did ok but didn't spend very long on stage. This show wasn't over the top like I hoped it be.
Was excited for this because I do think Nikki is very funny and really love to support women in the comedy space. We came for her second show and maybe she was just tired or wanted to get the second show over with, but the whole thing felt extremely rushed. When she said thank you and goodnight and walked off the stage, I swear it felt like half the audience was confused, thinking there’s no way that was the end. It was only an hour long WITH the opener!! Maybe she was just having an off night but I definitely wouldn’t go to a show if I knew it would be that short. All in, she’s funny, but she’s quick. And it wasn’t worth the money and hassle of getting there if you ask me.
We get out alot and love comedy. Nikki was absolutely hilarious. Such a fun night! If you love comedy, see this show!
Way too short of a performance. Took longer to drive there. They should have had 3 or 4 acts of yes going to be that short
Nikki was very funny. We thoroughly enjoyed the show and the venue.
You can see why she crushed it at the Brady roast. She raunchy, sexy, hilarious and the jokes never stop. Great delivery and never a dull moment. I highly recommend!
After seeing Nikki on the various comedy roasts, I had high hopes she would be as funny in person. She was funny, raw and very adult-themed, but not hilarious. She also did a shorter set than we were expecting which was a little disappointing.
I love Nikki and she was funny (obvi!), as well as her opening acts, they had us laughing to warm up the crowd for Nikki. It was a great show! The only thing I did not care for was the venue it was held at; Gila River Resort & Casino (the Showroom). Dont get me wrong, the Gila River Resort itself is beautiful but the room set up for this event was not great. On a positive note, they have what you might expect for an event such as a 3rd level (balcony section 300) which is actually as described, a balcony w/ stadium seating. Then, the 100 section from stage back a little ways was fine too as they were right up close and it was more of a table/chair set up (like a small comedy theatre). Now, the problem lies with the main, center section 200’s, which was a good majority of the crowd. They were all set up on flat level ground w/ dining style chairs set up into rows like you’re at a wedding. It felt very packed in. We could barely get a glimpse of the stage and I had to crane my neck the entire time to see over the many rows & people in front of us whose heads were all in the way. And it wasn’t just a one off case of a tall man’s head or someone with a hat on, it was the sheer amount of people sitting so close and being all at same flat sitting height as you. Although the stage is up higher than the audience, it was still quite hard to see her from about mid-way to the back of the 200’s section. I would’ve gotten Section 300 if I wanted to catch a better glimpse of the show, but instead I went for the 200 section obviously thinking those are better tix…but in this case they were not. It simply didn’t seem like a good set up for this event. And lastly the way they show the theatre seating chart online, it shows like an actual regular theatre (with the soft cushioned chairs) & where all the seats are on a very slight grade in order for a good view the further back each row is. But this was a basic wide open flat space that was filled with chairs to accommodate guests. If Nikki ever returns, she should play a theatre like Arizona Financial Theatre.
Opener was very funny. Nikki was great- her act was very funny! Will definitely see her again when she tours!
Show ended early and abruptly with no communication.
You have to go into the a comedy show knowing that it is rated R, rated XXX, and that the things they're going to talk about are super inappropriate. Nikki was all of that. She was absolutely hysterical. A show definitely worth seeing.
Nikki was very disappointing. Same old trash. Nothing clever or smart in her entire routine. She seemed to glorify pedo's and made fun of a girl that got in the wrong uber was killed. Not funny. I thought the entire crowd was so disappointed. I loved her on the many howard stern visits. Maybe she should take a break and stick with the roasts.
I went to see Nikki Glaser. some parts of the show were ok, but to much sex talk, or about women's body parts for me. I think a some comics are more creative than others. I enjoy comedy shows, but not sure I would see her again.
I understand medical emergencies happen durn shows but just ending it when it just started was disappointing.
Enjoyed the show, definitely some vulgar language(not complaining) and my man expressed living the guy that came on before her. Highly recommend!!
Unfortunately, the show needed to stop due to a situation in the audience with a guest requiring some medical attention She stopped the show and never came back and the show had only been going about 40 minutes No communication to the audience from the performer herself or the establishment hosting the show
Love Nikki G. But was definitely disappointed and offended that as a paying audience member there was no, none , zero zip acknowledgment, explanation nor even compensation for the alarming ruckus in audience & suddenly abandoned show
