Hottest women in comedy: Orthodoxy dictates that to be an attractive woman, one must be ladylike. To be ladylike, one must not make jokes, and especially not make vulgar jokes that attract chummy attention. At best, a lady can make a witty remark as though she belonged to the court of Louis XIV of France. However, certain women abandon traditional gender roles and pursue humor professionally.

And thank goodness for that, because each of the following 15 women, more importantly than being beautiful, is very funny. The American comedy industry would be worse without them.
But, given the nature of the televised broadcast and the average consumer’s propensities, these women’s beauty aids their success. In other words, it’s much more fun to watch something, however hilarious it may be, if the person featured is also easy on the eyes.
As Amy Schumer, the great wit behind Inside Amy Schumer, exposes on her show: a woman in Hollywood, however talented she may be, will always eventually face her last “f***able day”. Julia Louis Dreyfus explains: “In every actresses’ life, the media decides when you finally reach the point when you’re not believably ‘f***able’ anymore”.
Tina Fey buttresses: “There are signs. You know how Sally Field was Tom Hanks’ love interest inPunchline and then like twenty minutes later she was his mom in Forrest Gump?”
We recently exposed the 15 Hottest Men in Comedy. In this list, then, we break down the 15women who are hilariously funny who are still years away from their last “f***able day”.
15. Ellie Kemper
Ellie Kemper’s beauty is much more corn-fed than other names on the list. She seems totally approachable, making her a perfect fit for the perennially jubilant titular character of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. In fact, Tina Fey, the creator of the show, noticed her on The Office and thought she was both too pretty for it, but also excellent at downplaying how pretty she actually is. The same thought comes up on Unbreakable, when her narcissistic boss Jacqueline tells her she only has a few years left of youthful beauty.
But, on top of being pretty, Kemper is very funny. Besides her comedy acting credentials which are plentiful, she wrote a letter for GQ called “Can Men Be Funny?,” lampooning the traditional assertion that women aren’t funny by suggesting in more or less the same terms that men are the ones who make no one laugh. It’s funny, thoughtful, and tongue-in-cheek, nailing down Kemper’s spot on this list.
