In \u201cSingle Lady,\u201d her fourth, self-directed hour, all guardrails are off. Two years ago, Wong got divorced from her husband of nearly a decade. What followed was a carnal <em>rumspringa <\/em>Wong now narrates in the same gleefully graphic detail she once <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lied to the birth of her first child. \u201cI really went on a tear,\u201d the 42-year-old says, and has the anecdotes to show for it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    But with \u201cSingle Lady,\u201d Wong wants to do more than simply recount her exploits to an ecstatic crowd at L.A.\u2019s Wiltern Theater. The stand-up wants to reframe the middle-aged divorced woman from a pathetic figure, per popular stereotype, into a triumphant one, with herself as the leading example. \u201cLook how much fun I\u2019m having,\u201d she exhorts her audience. Wong makes a convincing case, albeit less about the broader condition of midlife divorce than her own highly exceptional set of circumstances \u2014 starting with the fact that her own split was national <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>, an experience she calls \u201ca bat signal letting all potentially interested men know I was suddenly available.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Those men include, in Wong\u2019s telling, a famous film director; a 25-year-old who sent the performer her first-ever thirst trap video; a 60-year-old who screamed when he climaxed; a Japanese American drummer; and a white guy who couldn\u2019t tell a tea cup from a rice bowl. \u201cI\u2019m not trying to trap a man anymore,\u201d Wong explains, nodding to the running theme of her breakout special, 2016\u2019s \u201cBaby Cobra.\u201d Liberated from the confines of commitment, she\u2019s free to sample all the modern meat market has to offer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cBaby Cobra\u201d ended on a brilliant reversal. For all Wong\u2019s insistence that she just wanted a rich husband to take care of her, it was <em>she <\/em>who ended up paying off her spouse\u2019s student loans. This bait-and-switch established money and the agency it affords as the skeleton key to Wong\u2019s body of work, which now includes an Emmy-winning role in \u201cBeef\u201d as well as her comedy. Motherhood, Asian American identity and transgressive profanity are all signature motifs, but it\u2019s wealth that Wong discusses with a truly unique level of candor and pride, in \u201cSingle Lady\u201d as in prior releases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Wong insists that her suitors pay for the first date. \u201cI know that sounds crazy,\u201d she smirks. \u201cBecause I\u2019m a millionaire.\u201d As such, she\u2019s able to fly her hookups out to L.A., stock her house with Toto toilets and, most importantly, approach dating as a \u201cfinancially independent divorced mom.\u201d For most women, partnership is as much an economic institution as a romantic one. For Wong, dating is purely about her own desires, a mindset most of her civilian peers will view as aspirational escapism rather than a realistic model.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cDon Wong,\u201d the 2022 special, displayed a similar level of bravado. Of all the taboos Wong breaks, from getting into the gory truth of breastfeeding to working blue while visibly pregnant, the unabashed embrace of her own success may be the most challenging of all to social norms. In \u201cDon Wong,\u201d where Wong opined on the secrets to a healthy marriage, this disposition flirted with self-satisfaction. And in \u201cSingle Lady,\u201d Wong is still far from vulnerable \u2014\u00a0she opens the special by admitting the publicity around her divorce made her feel ashamed, but she closes it by stressing that she\u2019s best friends with her co-parent and ex. The reasons for the marriage\u2019s end are never discussed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    From her new vantage point, however, Wong\u2019s confidence has a more defiant cast. When she dumps a fling, she\u2019s more interested in mining the exchange for material than managing her date\u2019s feelings; when admirers shower her with gifts, she has no compunctions about accepting the free swag, whether or not she plans to actually go out with the sender. One of the special\u2019s few false notes is Wong\u2019s repeated self-identification as \u201ca kind 6,\u201d in contrast to the 10s men her age were after the last time she was navigating single life. To her credit and our enjoyment, Wong is clearly neither average-looking nor especially gentle with others. One of the best bits of \u201cSingle Lady\u201d sees her express naked condescension towards insecure male comedians and the younger women they make her babysit at various dinner parties. It\u2019s not very sisterly of Wong to sneer at \u201cInsta-hoes,\u201d but it <em>is <\/em>a true expression of some less-than-PC feelings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Wong\u2019s fans already know the title of \u201cSingle Lady\u201d is something of a misnomer. Since last year, the comic has been in a public relationship with Bill Hader, a relationship she alludes to throughout the hour without mentioning her new partner by name. (She specifies she could only seriously spend time with a divorced dad, because she needs a man who comes \u201cpre-yelled at.\u201d) This development gives Wong a neat ending, and allows her to frame her exploration as a closed, finite chapter she can synthesize into her act. Despite such broad thesis statements as \u201cfor women, 40 is the golden age \u2014\u00a0to get divorced,\u201d though, it\u2019s apparent Wong\u2019s last two years were as extraordinary as her talents. Not all divorc\u00e9es will find themselves as sought-after as Wong did in the immediate aftermath, and almost none will turn their saga into an account this entertaining. \u201cSingle Lady\u201d is far from a how-to guide, but it\u2019s a riveting testimonial.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    <em>\u201cAli Wong: Single Lady\u201d is now streaming on Netflix.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
