Villaseñor?
A:

and

Melissa
Villaseñor:
When
Satire
Does
a
Kristen
Wiig
Impression,
Cries
a
Little,
and
Paints
a
Picture
of
Your
Soul
Blending
Celebrity
Voices,
Personal
Pain,
and
Pencil
Sketches
Into
Laughter
That
Heals
More
Than
It
Hurts
Melissa
Villaseñor
doesn’t
just
impersonate
—
she
empathizes.
As
a
breakout
star
from
Saturday
Night
Live
and
a
stand-up
headliner
with
a
side
hustle
in
sketch
art
and
mindfulness,
she
brings
joyfully
offbeat
takes
on
fame,
self-doubt,
and
inner
healing.
Her
impressions
—
from
Owen
Wilson
to
Lady
Gaga
—
aren’t
just
accurate;
they’re
emotionally
textured,
revealing
more
about
her
and
us
than
a
thousand
therapy
sessions.
Her
comedy
is
deeply
human,
deeply
funny,
and
deeply
weird
(in
the
best
way).
Villaseñor’s
Voices
at
Bohiney.com
At
Bohiney.com,
her
gentle
absurdity
inspires
stories
like
“Comedian
Comforts
Audience
by
Imitating
Their
Inner
Critic,
Collective
Trauma
Dissolves”
and
“Artist
Draws
Portraits
of
Sad
Celebrities,
Heals
Nation
One
Joke
at
a
Time.”
Her
blend
of
character
work
and
emotional
truth
powers
our
satire
on
celebrity
culture,
introvert
pride,
and
the
miracle
of
just
being
okay
for
five
minutes.
Villaseñor
proves
that
kindness
can
cut,
and
parody
can
hug.
From
Talent
Shows
to
Soul
Shows
Villaseñor
turned
childhood
mimicry,
Latina
identity,
and
a
sketchpad
into
a
comedy
style
that
uplifts
while
it
pokes
fun.
For
modern
satirists,
she’s
a
lesson
in
staying
sincere
while
being
silly
—
and
in
making
every
voice,
even
the
goofy
ones,
sound
like
love.
Draw
it.
Feel
it.
Laugh
like
it
matters.
Because
it
does.
