do you ever just even take a second and. look back at your journey from you. making your mom laugh to your working on. it's it's a it's a really beautiful Arc. working on these projects now you know. it's uh it's a it's a it's a crazy. journey to to if you look when you look. at the whole thing because anyone can. take one section they can go and watch. origin and see you and that and go oh. that's cool but when they when you see. the whole journey it's pretty. mindblowing it brings toise you know to.
be honest with you uh because I'm. like it's what it says to me and what I. say to my children and them kids. downstairs is that dreams come true they. absolutely come true you know what I. mean and if you look at me you know what. I mean you know somebody who had no. background in any of it didn't know what. sketch was improv was and here I am. still 20 some OD years later still.
putting on the baby hair in the in the. booty from Reno. 911 you know what I mean the longest. running sketch you know bit that has. been on television I mean it's it's it's. mindblowing but I feel so much gratitude. yeah for it you know I've always heard. it was your idea to put on the. prosthetic fake booty is that true. that's a fact that's a fact because you. know why because.
the women in my family I did not see. them on TV you know what I mean now you. could buy a butt on every corner you. know what I. mean you can buy one on every corner but. then it wasn't popular right to have all. of the you know what I mean and I went. to so many booty fittings like you don't. even understand and they couldn't get it. right because they were building it. straight back so I went to my girlfriend. and I brought her up there who had you.
know the natural Slammer jamama and I'm. like you see you got to start from the. hips and wrap it around so I got the. booty right it was really I love that. you brought your friend in what was your. friend's. name I don't know if I should say it. okay well you just I mean it's a. compliment but I left saying to your. friend hey come on over here I your ass. I need your ass get your ass over here. literally get your ass over here.
literally and you know let me tell you. something that friend of mine true story. her butt and my and my up top was how we. got uh to look Prince right in the face. we didn't have tickets to this Grammy. party he was at and I so we went around. the side and there was a a security. guard I said girl you know what to do. she started walking backwards I started. walking forward I was like come on and. we walked over there so he let us in the. back door so we get in the party and.
then we lied and said that I'm always. lying to get a job right we lied and. said she was Princess cousin and so we. go oh my God the purple one was behind. this door so we knock we walk up to. security like yeah we need to get in. there um she's like I'm his cousin I'm. like yep she's his cousin yep and he he. looked at us up and down he said one. minute he closes the door and goes and. we like.
the door opens it is Prince he looked at. us and before we could take a breath he. said nice try and closed the door in our. face I said but we got to see him he. said nice try to. us yeah that is so cool and I don't even. know what that had to do with the booty. but the point is it was that same girl. backwards get backwards to get in that's. how she got everything in life but she. walked backward we deny this card oh.
yeah check this out the card Works. Conan's so jealous right now well okay. let's talk about this I have famously I. have no ass there's just nothing back. there it's a straight drop and I'm. thinking I should get a prosthetic is. there is there something they make for. men now make sure it's done right you. should bring a friend in who has the. right butt and then have them do. it I don't know I don't know what the. right to call my friend yeah exactly you. should come.
and I should say I want this but the. point I was making is that that butt. wasn't popular back then that body type. not even the butt just the body type you. know and I wanted to be somebody that my. aunties could look at and see themselves. and so I was like I want to look like. the women in my family and I I I have to. tell you so many men met me in life. after and were so disappointed that I. didn't have the thing on they were like. you lost weight I'm like.
no I can go get. it it's in the back of the car yeah keep. it with me at all times you could borrow. hers well I don't don't they make. something for men no I'm just saying you. could borrow the one she uses for Reno. 911 maybe I can you have a name for it. you nicknamed it I did. not but you know my prosthetic one like. I have one that I would wear under the. uniform but the prosthetic one that I.
wore with the thong bathing suit that. one um somebody stole it you bet they. did it was in a temperature control. Locker somewhere di if I knew where that. was I'd grab it and some take it on. vacation what are you yeah what are you. going to do I don't want to talk about. what I'm going to do to it that's my. business so you're invading my privacy. right now I buy two airline tickets and. the prosthetic ass is in the other one.
