Have you ever really wanted to just let go of society’s crushing political correctness and indulge yourself in all your first-world problems? Then join #besties Tiffany and Madison for an hour of harrowing explanation about how hard it really is to be a privileged white-girl in a politically correct first world. Botox is just the beginning…
There’s glitter, there’s glamour, and there’s a whole lot of narcissism. From fantastically improbable white-girl raps about adopting “little black babies”, to catchy pop-songs about their love for labiaplasty (for those not aware it’s a form of vaginal rejuvenation), and relating to the world how hard celebrity deaths really hit you, all your first-world white-girl problems will be addressed.
This cabaret/comedy is a true cringe-fest, but a cringe-fest that you really do enjoy. These first-world white-girls even take on the current state of American politics (but I think they think it’s a reality TV program) through an excitable song and dance routine for current newly elected President Trump (with orange pom poms and all). Hitler will also be mentioned along with dogs having more privileges than refugees, and climate change meaning the joys of an endless summer.
In an AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) like setting you might even find yourself drawing from deep within to express your first-world white-girl problem such as, “is my hair too long… or too short?”, “I broke my thumb and now my acrylic nail is stuck under the cast”, and “my Samsung Galaxy 7 burnt down my beach house!”.
Hosts Tiffany and Madison are like a cross between a meaner Elle Woods from Legally Blonde and a slightly dumber version of the girls from White Chicks. Both Judy Hainsworth and Meggan Hickey sing, dance and act like true privileged white-girls (who actually have talent) and will have you laughing through your Botox as we step into their lives and experience their truly heartbreaking first-world white-girl problems.
So go on, throw aside your political correctness, chuck on some glitter and indulge yourself in all your first-world white-girl problems!
