It takes a lot of confidence and sheer talent to stand up on a stage and make people laugh at your antics. Talking of stand-up comedians, who is your favourite comedian? Steve Martin, Jerry Seinfeld or Eddie Murphy? Every time we talk about comedians, our mind directly focuses on the male gender. So, now ask again to yourself who your favourite female comedian is? Well, unlike the list of male comedians, the number of female comedians is very restricted. You will find some powerful and witty women who dominate twitter with their gigs, while there are also some who take the center stage and can make the entire audience laugh with just a mic in their hands.
