“I’m glad this whole success thing is happening now. I can’t even imagine a twenty-three-year-old Leslie in this position. They would have kicked me off the set after two days. I would have fucked half the dudes in the crew. I was a less confident person back then. And damn sure not as funny.”
– Leslie Jones starring in Ghostbusters, who worked for 25 years as a stand-up comic before “becoming” famous.
