With a shaky voice, she expressed her concern about the political situation in the United States.

«It’s heartbreaking to see what’s happening, and it’s also hard for me personally. The personal is political, as we all know.»

The comedian criticized the lack of media coverage on protests in the United States and warned about the danger this poses to democracy.

«I’m sorry for those of you who have been worried about me; I just needed time and to make tough decisions, to settle down and be able to tell you this.»
