Lampanelli once again delivers in Tough Love, which is complete with her signature one-two punch liners and mean-spirited insults. Even her husband isn't immune from Lampanelli's wrath, as she affectionately refers to him as "Jimmy Big Balls." Tough Love wraps-up with Lampanelli's first ever "The Roast of the Worthless Americans," an appropriate kick-you-where-it-hurts roast at pop culture's favorite love-to-hate celebrities which include Kate Gosselin, Paris Hilton, the cast of Jersey Show and many more. Tough Love is available on CD and DVD, with the DVD including over 10 minutes of bonus content.
This comedy release from stand-up comedian Lisa Lampenelli captures a live performance by the funnywoman, recorded by Comedy Central in a format of two-parts roast and one-part roast. In the concert, the comic discusses numerous topics with her trademark ruthlessness, including her husband, Jimmy Big Balls.

Lisa Lampanelli
Active Decades: '90s and '00s
Born: Jul 19, 1961 in Trumbull, CT
Genre: Spokn
Styles: Comedy, Standup Comedy, Blue Humor
If Don Rickles were a woman with a slight weight problem and a well-documented fondness for having sex with African-American men, he's sound an awful lot like comedienne Lisa Lampanelli. Described as "Comedy's Lovable Queen of Mean," Lampanelli's act is top-heavy with no-hold-barred insult humor and ethnic jokes, along with plenty of material on her appetite for black men ("Now it's hard to get the really fine black guys, because the skinny broads and Asian girls have started stealing them from us, which I resent...these blacks gotta learn to stick with their roots, and that's us fat white chicks"). Born in Trumbull, CT, in 1961, Lampanelli studied journalism at Syracuse University and Harvard and briefly enjoyed a successful career in the magazine industry, working as a copy editor at Popular Mechanics and writing about music for Spy, Hit Parader, and Rolling Stone. In the early '90s, Lampanelli decided to try her hand at standup comedy and paid her dues working clubs in New York City. Lampanelli slowly developed a following for her routines, which were both raunchy and caustic while revealing a self-depreciating charm that helped the poison go down easily, but it wasn't until the new millennium that she broke into mainstream stardom, partly on the basis on several televised celebrity roasts. Lampanelli became a regular guest on Howard Stern's radio show, where her over-the-top wit fit like a glove, and she made a standout appearance on Comedy Central's Friar's Club roast of Hugh Hefner in 2001; she was invited back for subsequent roasts of Chevy Chase, Pamela Anderson, William Shatner, and Jeff Foxworthy. Lampanelli's first cable standup special, The Queen of Mean, aired in 2002, and her first album, Take It Like a Man -- tied into another cable special with the same title -- appeared in 2005. In 2006, Lampanelli made her movie debut alongside fellow comic Larry the Cable Guy in his picture Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector, and issued her second album, Dirty Girl, in early 2007, with the simultaneous release of a concert DVD featuring the same material. Long Live the Queen would arrive in 2009 with Tough Love following in 2011.
