Description:
Wanda Sykes reduces people to tears -- tears of laughter. She's done so
as a stand-up comic, a sitcom star, and a sports commentator for years
now, and in the process she's gained a huge fan base nationwide. Now
that she's conquered television, she's applying her genius to her first
book,
Yeah, I Said It.
Here, Wanda presents hilarious and uncensored commentary on sex,
family, politics, celebrities, and much more than she could ever say in
a sound bite.
But then again, she's a genius with a sound bite too. Here's what she
says about men football. "I used to think that football took place in
this overbearing male-only environment that bled masculine domination.
But the more I attend, the more I realize these football fans could
actually be experiencing the straight man's gay pride parade. You see
men painting each other's faces in bright colors. You see men proud to
wear another man's last name on their shirt. You see some men wear no
shirt at all...Hot wieners on every corner as you walk up to the main
competition. Men open the back of their trunks for a little tailgating."
Here's what she says about women: "Women are taking stripper
classes in hopes their men will stop going to strip clubs...You can't
compete with those strippers...You gotta have...the stripper mentality.
In other words, the ability to lie like a dog for a measly buck. A
stripper will tell you man anything for a dollar. 'Oow, I thought you
were Brad Pitt.' "
An uproariout and irreverent collection from one of today's foremost
comedic talents,
Yeah,
I Said It is Wanda Sykes at her uncensored best. Here, she
channels her sharp wit into funny bits on the truth as she sees it from
the hall of government in Washington, D.C., to the red carpets and
boardrooms of Hollywood. Imbued with her razor-sharp voice, these
essays showcase Syke's sidesplitting candor and her trademark brand of
comedy.
