AceShowbiz - Natasha Leggero certainly had her own way to fight sexism in the show business. The comedienne wasn't shy to strip off half-naked during a live performance to call out double standards in the entertainment industry.
The former "Chelsea Lately" panelist took the stage at the Hollywood Improv in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, January 10. In a video obtained by TMZ, her performance was introduced by fellow comedian Bert Kreischer, who ripped off his shirt and told jokes while being naked from the waist up. The audience seemed to love it, eating up his jokes.
When Natasha came onstage, she was initially dressed in a white, furry coat over denim overalls, walking up to the song "Still D.R.E." by Dr. Dre. Without a word, she stripped off her coat and tossed it into the crowd while dancing to the song.
She didn't stop there as she proceeded to undo the straps of her overalls and remove her shirt, exposing her bare chest to the crowd. She said to the audience, "If the boys can do it, why can't the girls?"
As the audience screamed and laughed in shock, Bert exclaimed from the crowd, "Holy s**t." He quipped that he will have to start taking his pants off during his stand-ups to top Natasha. "Oh my god. The f**king best," he lauded his fellow comedian.
Natasha then retrieved her jacket and put it back on to cover her chest before diving into her comedy act. As if nothing had happened, she joked that having a baby is a "truly amazing experience" apart from the C-section scar, weight gain and hair loss.
Natasha's stand-up set was part of Skyler Stone's Comedy Rocks event. Other big names who graced the stage at the Improv on Wednesday night were David Spade and Tiffany Haddish.
