7Michelle Buteau has captivated audiences and shown the world that you can have your big break at any age. At 47, she’s taken the comedy industry by storm by turning her 2020 memoir “Survival of the Thickest” into a hit Netflix show that she stars in. On top of that, as a seasoned stand-up comic, she was the first woman to have a comedy show taping that was shot at Radio City Music Hall, and she released a new film “Babes” in May. Buteau’s comedic brilliance and relatable charm made her a standout as she continued to redefine what it means to be a leading lady. Off-screen, she advocates for self-acceptance and body inclusivity, flawlessly blending humor with heart.
