For nearly two decades at sold-out tours, and as the host of three hit podcasts, Emmy®,  Grammy® and Golden Globe®-nominated Nikki Glaser has honed her shockingly honest, no holds barred style, solidifying herself as one of the funniest voices in comedy today. 

On January 5, 2025, Glaser made history as the first woman to host the Golden Globe® Awards  solo. She received praise from audiences worldwide and rave reviews from critics alike hailing  her memorable performance as “victorious.” She returned as host of the 83rd Golden Globe®  Awards on January 11, 2026, to equally unanimous praise, and for which she earned a WGA  Award nomination. She is set to reprise her role as host for a third time at the 84th Golden  Globe® Awards on January 10, 2027. 

Last October, in front of a sold-out crowd at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in her hometown of St. Louis, Missouri, Nikki taped her newest hour-long comedy special for Hulu, NIKKI GLASER:  GOOD GIRL, that premiered on April 24, 2026. A few weeks later on November 8 she made her  SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE hosting debut with musical guest Sombr. 

2024 was a career defining year for Glaser, culminating with being named “Comedian of the  Year” by The New York Times and one of the TIME100: The Most Influential People of 2025.  One year later, Glaser graced the cover of the TIME100: The Most Influential People of 2026.  

In film, Nikki has a slate of highly anticipated projects on the horizon. She will star, alongside  Kim Kardashian, in Eva Longoria’s Netflix comedy THE FIFTH WHEEL written by Paula Pell  and Janine Brito. This November, also for Netflix, she lends her voice to the animated film  STEPS which reimagines the story of Cinderella (Amanda Seyfried) and features the voices of  Ali Wong, Stephanie Hsu and Bette Midler. She will also co-write, produce and star in an  original comedy inspired by the classic game MASH for Paramount Pictures. This SLIDING  DOORS-style comedy follows a woman whose childhood MASH game magically becomes  reality, and she discovers that the perfect life isn’t the one she imagined. Additionally, she will star in, co-write and produce a new romantic comedy for Universal Pictures with Judd Apatow  producing. 

Following the success of her Critics Choice Award-nominated HBO standup special, GOOD  CLEAN FILTH in 2022, Glaser’s highly anticipated second HBO comedy special, SOMEDAY  YOU’LL DIE premiered in May 2024 to a record-breaking audience. It set the record for both the  best premiere night for an HBO comedy special in more than two years and for the #1 largest  streaming audience for a Comedy Special in HBO Max history. Glaser was nominated for an  Emmy® Award for “Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded),” a Grammy® Award for “Best  Comedy Album,” a Golden Globe® Award for "Best Performance in a Stand-Up Comedy on  Television," a Critics Choice Award for “Best Comedy Special” and a WGA Award for  “Comedy/Variety Special,” which she won. Glaser also wrote and performed “Someday You’ll  Die” the special’s theme song that is available on all streaming platforms. The single was  recorded in Glaser’s hometown of St. Louis with producers Dan Monahan and Tim Convy.  Released by Bailey Blues in partnership with Redbird Records, the track shows a different side  of Glaser, but fans of her comedy will recognize her trademark wit and authenticity throughout  the lyrics.  

Glaser was also the undeniable standout on Netflix’s Emmy®-nominated THE GREATEST  ROAST OF ALL TIME: TOM BRADY which earned her viral attention and reinstated her title as 

“the best roaster on the planet” according to Indiewire. The roast aired live and unedited on  Netflix from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on May 5, 2024. 

After wrapping her global THE GOOD GIRL tour in 2024 and her ALIVE AND UNWELL tour  across the US, Canada and Australia in 2025, Nikki is now on her all-new THE STUNNING tour  across Europe and North America. 

From March 2021 to March 2025, Glaser hosted THE NIKKI GLASER PODCAST for  iHeartMedia and Will Ferrell’s Big Money Players Network, where she provided a fun and  brutally honest look into pop-culture and her personal life in weekly episodes. THE NIKKI  GLASER PODCAST was nominated for “Best Comedy” by the 2025 iHeart Podcast Awards. Nikki hosts and executive produces LOVERS AND LIARS (formerly FGIRL ISLAND), which  premiered on the CW on April 11, 2024. LOVERS AND LIARS is the female spinoff of the hit  HBO Max reality dating series FBOY ISLAND, which Nikki hosted and executive produced for  three seasons. The Washington Post hailed FBOY ISLAND as “deliciously twisty” and TIME  called it a “compelling and clever masterpiece” with “smart execution” noting that, “An advisor to  the women and a gentle antagonist to the FBoys, Glaser, a comedian, brings just the right level  of self-aware humor.” Season one of FBOY ISLAND had the biggest premiere weekend for an  HBO Max Original reality series since the platform’s launch. 

Nikki took her love of reality TV to the next level by starring in, and executive producing, the E!  half-hour reality sitcom WELCOME HOME NIKKI GLASER? Uprooted from her fast-paced  Hollywood lifestyle, Nikki returns to her hometown of St. Louis where she embarks on a  hilarious and often uncomfortable journey of self-discovery. Unfiltered, relatable, and  unapologetically herself, Nikki navigates friends, family, and romance as a homegrown local  celebrity. 

Previously, Nikki flexed her over-sharing muscle as the host of Comedy Central’s first live daily  morning show, YOU UP WITH NIKKI GLASER for SiriusXM, which ran from February 2018 to  October 2020. Nikki’s most recent Netflix comedy special, BANGIN’, was released in October  2019. BANGIN’ was the most watched special on Netflix when it premiered. Nikki hosted, co created and executive produced the critically acclaimed and daring comedic show, NOT SAFE  WITH NIKKI GLASER, for Comedy Central and NIKKI & SARA LIVE for MTV. 

Nikki was a standout on three Comedy Central Roasts, including those of Bruce Willis and Rob  Lowe, which led to her guest-hosting JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! and hosting the inaugural edition of  the 2021 MTV MOVIE & TV AWARDS: UNSCRIPTED, which earned her stellar reviews. She  also had memorable film and television roles in Judd Apatow’s TRAINWRECK, NBC’s AP BIO  and INSIDE AMY SCHUMER, amongst others. In November 2022 Nikki was a triumph coming  in third place on the ninth season of the hit FOX series THE MASKED SINGER. 

Nikki has multiple stand-up specials and late-night tv appearances in which she jokes about her  most humiliating moments as a woman in the modern world. Nikki’s past and current struggles  with anorexia, depression, and anxiety are fair game in both her stand-up, and in-depth  interviews with THE HOWARD STERN SHOW, WTF with MARC MARON, CONAN O ́BRIEN  NEEDS A FRIEND and THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE. She has become a complete open  book on mic for the laughs and as the empowering voice for women that she yearned for as a  confused adolescent.
