After over 20 years in comedy, author and stand-up comedian Leanne Morgan is having a moment. She's selling out theaters and arenas across the country and now proudly announces the release of her first comedy special with Netflix, Leanne Morgan: I’m Every Woman, out April 11. Watch the full special on Netflix, starting April 11th https://www.netflix.com/title/81636889 The special follows the blockbuster success of her YouTube special, Leanne Morgan: So Yummy, which raked in over 50M views. Much of that appeal can be attributed to an act that resonates with men and women of all ages from all walks of life around the world. A respite for those exhausted by an entertainment landscape that often celebrates youth over substance, Morgan is a shining example that life is meaningful and vibrant at any age, and with age comes wisdom and a wicked sense of humor. The special’s title, like Morgan’s standup, celebrates every woman – mothers, daughters, sisters, best friends, grandmothers – and is both observational and instructional. Through personal stories from her experiences growing up in rural Tennessee, being married for over 20 years, the adventures of raising her three kids, and becoming a grandmother for the first time, Morgan’s life is on full display and no member of her family is spared from her opinion. “Maybe those horrible decisions I made in the 80’s smoking behind a dumpster are actually going to pay off!” Morgan shares of her first comedy special for Netflix. “It’s been such a wild time traveling the country sharing my stories and experiences with so many of you. I just want to straddle all of you, kiss you on the mouth, and do your laundry. Thank you all, for making this Tennessee Mama’s dream come true! The special was filmed last year at the Lexington Opera House in Lexington, KY during her 100-city The Big Panty tour. 💓See Leanne on tour! 💓 https://www.leannemorgan.com/tour Follow Leanne on social! 💗Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leannemorgan... 💗Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leannemorga... 💗Twitter: https://twitter.com/leannecomedy 💗TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@leannemorganc... 💗💗About Leanne💗💗 After discovering her passion for stand-up comedy later in life and finding the time and confidence to pursue her dream, Leanne Morgan has cemented herself as a must-watch comedian. ​Leanne was feeling the lure of Hollywood after graduating high school, yet the idea of moving there was unheard of and too daunting for a country girl who had never been away from home. She enrolled in college at The University of Tennessee, where she graduated (by the skin of her teeth) with a degree in Child and Family Studies. ​Shortly after, she married her husband, Chuck, and they moved to Bean Station, Tennessee located in the beautiful foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. To stay busy after having her first baby, Morgan started selling jewelry at home parties. She was supposed to talk about the jewelry but instead conversed about breastfeeding, hemorrhoids and being a mama. The party guests thought that she was hilarious, and before she knew it, she was booked a year in-advance. The jewelry company saw what was happening and asked her to speak at their sales rallies. It was there that women started saying, “you need to do stand-up!” That gave Morgan the courage to really go for it! She finally had access to comedy clubs when her family moved to San Antonio in 2001, and her career in comedy quickly officially got underway. Morgan’s comedy has landed her at the prestigious Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and has brought her development deals for her own sitcom with ABC and Warner Brothers, writer/producer Matt Williams (Rosanne and Home Improvement), TV Land and with Sony Television. Morgan has garnered over 2.5M followers across social media and her popular online stand-up special, So Yummy, has reached over 50M views on YouTube. Her fan base continues to grow with her relatability as she discusses everything from being a housewife, sharing Jell-O recipes to having a new grandbaby. Morgan has appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show, The View, and Nick at Nite’s Funniest Mom. ​Now that her children are grown, Morgan is moving full steam ahead with a career rooted in her everyday comedy. In December 2022, she concluded The Big Panty Tour with Outback Presents which spanned 100+ shows in theaters across the U.S. She also taped her first Netflix standup special which premieres on the platform on April 11, 2023. Morgan is back on the road with her next 100+ show Just Getting Started theater and arena tour with Outback Presents. Her first book, What in the World?, is set to be published by Random House/Convergent, in August 2024. When not on the road, Leanne cherishes spending time in Knoxville, Tennessee with her husband, three children, grandbaby, and two beagles. #standupcomedy #leannemorgancomedy #comedyvideo
