Jess Hilarious’s Job is in Jeopardy, and It’s Definitely NOT Funny
It’s time to have a candid discussion about misogyny in the workplace
Jess Hilarious has been a polarizing figure in the comedy realm for quite some time.
On the one hand, lots of people love her and her hilarious antics, and on the other, many also accuse her of being an unfunny shock jock of sorts, who runs certain ignorant gags purely for the sake of controversy.
But that’s neither here nor there.
No matter if you love or hate her, she earned her spot on Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club. However, as fate would have it, she gave birth just as she was starting her tenure. And now, her entire career may be in jeopardy.
The CliffsNotes
