Wanda Sykes likes to say she has a French wife.
"That sounds better than saying she's white," the comedian quips in her new HBO comedy special, "Ima Be Me."
It's an irreverent, tart, politically incorrect, in-your-face autobiographical dissertation about being black, a lesbian, a new mom and a comedian.
In other words, it's vintage Wanda Sykes.
This is the second HBO special for Sykes, who is also in HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm." It was taped live in August at the Warner Theater in Washington, D.C.
It airs at 10 p.m. Saturday on HBO.
