The charismatic comedian is host of Netflix's The Circle and had a breakout role in a recent episode of Comedy Central's Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens.
-directed episode that aired Feb. 12. “When you have a fierce, funny female who created a show with a platform for not just funny comedians and actresses, but also for the diversity, you’re like, how can I not be winning?”Buteau’s pop isn’t out of nowhere. Her work can be traced back to her start in the stand-up scene in 2001. Two decades doing the stand-up rounds led her to form a friendship with fellow comedians like Ali Wong, who cast her in. In 2019, Netflix caught Buteau fever.
This year, she’s continued her hot streak on the streaming giant by stealing scenes without even showing her face as the hilarious narrator-host of reality show phenomenonThe Circle ?'” Buteau jokes. “We should be renewed for a few seasons,” shes says of the show, which has yet to get a season 2. “I’m on the edge of my seat like Pete Buttigieg at the Iowa Caucus.”which will be back for a second season. But Buteau knows how to make the most of both a starring role and a one-liner.
“Don’t ask for permission. Just go!,” Buteau says of taking advantage of her moments on screen. “I feel like a lot of us live in fear because we don’t know. You can be a scene-stealer without being a steamroller.” Buteau has a little advice for rising comedians that are also making the rounds with smaller spots on TV shows. What’s the secret to being a scene-stealer? “You have to listen,” Buteau advises. “People want to keep talking over. You don’t get anywhere with that. It’s like [acting with] mom.”
