Wanda Sykes
Happy to see another Black woman comedian on the list. Y’all know what Wanda’s done. Mad voiceovers, including one in Rio, which I love. She was Jane Fonda’s hilarious assistant in Monster in Law, which I also love, she’s Daphne on “black-ish” and her comedy specials which are often Emmy-nominated. While she has 7 noms under her belt, the one she did win comes from writing on “The Chris Rock Show.”
