    Nikki Glaser thinks people "treat you better when you're hotter"

    The 40-year-old comedian has revealed that she plans to have cosmetic surgery in the future and she can't understand the "stigma" that continues to surrounds it


    During an appearance on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon', Nikki shared: "I'm gonna do it. I have no problem with that.

    "You know, you've got to do it subtly ... you have to do it so that they go, 'What's she doing?' And you go, 'I'm just meditating more.''"

    Nikki thinks cosmetic surgery represents a "wise investment", observing that attractive people are often treated better.

    She said: "I think it's a wise investment.

    "I think ... there's kind of a stigma around getting face work or investing in your beauty - doing all these procedures. And there maybe is a sadness to it. But I kind of think, 'Well, it makes my life better.' People treat you better when you're hotter. It's just a fact. It's a fact of life. It is, you know?

    "People are like, 'It's so sad. Why don't you love the way you were born?' And it's like, 'Why did you go to college? Why don't you love the brain you were born with? Why did you pay thousands of dollars to that institution?"

    Meanwhile, Nikki will return to host the Golden Globe Awards in 2026.

    The comedy star took the reins for the awards ceremony earlier this year, and Nikki is already looking forward to returning to the role.

    She recently said in a statement: "Hosting the Golden Globes this year was without a doubt the most fun I have ever had in my career.

    "I can't wait to do it again, and this time in front of the team from 'The White Lotus', who will finally recognise my talent and cast me in Season Four as a Scandinavian Pilates instructor with a shadowy past."
