Amy Sedaris
Amy Sedaris is an actress and comedian, born March 29, 1961, best known as Jerri Blank on the cult TV series Strangers with Candy. She has also written a book called I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence.
She is the younger sister of the humorist and This American Life contributor David Sedaris.
Amy Sedaris provides examples of the following tropes:
- Beauty Inversion: Sedaris wanted to avert Hollywood Homely for her character in Strangers With Candy, so she made the character into The Grotesque.
- Real Women Don't Wear Dresses: Averted- Even though she's one of the best living arguments against the whole "Women can't be funny or strong" claim, she's often seen dressed like a Fairy Princess Homemaker.
- Refuge in Audacity: If you've seen her show, you know what we're talking about.
- Sesame Street Cred
