“I don’t care if my boyfriend f— another girl. I’m cool with it, cheat on me,” Nikki Glaser told Alex Cooper during an April 8 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, laying out an unusually blunt take on monogamy that quickly reignited conversation about celebrity relationships.
Glaser, 41, framed the stance as specific and conditional: physical encounters are tolerable if they’re consensual, protected and transparent — she says she insists Chris Convy always tell other women he has a girlfriend. Emotional intimacy, though, is non-negotiable. “Emotional cheating would hurt me,” she said, giving examples that included sharing TV rituals or trading memes—”that’s our thing,” she added.
The comedian traced the dynamic back to the early days of their on-again, off-again partnership, which dates to 2013. She described a surprising origin: hearing Convy’s past hookup stories used to act as arousal — literally foreplay — until, she joked, he ran out of material. That curiosity, and a competitive streak she likened to wanting a desirable handbag, explains why she says she sometimes encourages him to have other experiences (as long as everyone involved knows the situation).
Glaser also clarified it isn’t a two-way rule — she doesn’t like to hook up while in a relationship. “I’m not someone who likes to hook up when I’m in a relationship,” she told Cooper (and later couched her comments in feminist terms, saying her interest in other women’s attraction to Convy reflects her respect for women’s opinions).
Convy is no stranger to Glaser’s public life: he executive-produced her Comedy Central talk show Not Safe with Nikki Glaser and last year’s standup special Someday You’ll Die. Their decade-plus connection and his producing credits have made this not just a personal revelation but a public one—fans and media are parsing whether this level of sexual transparency helps or hurts a performer’s brand.
Glaser’s remarks have been met with a mix of amusement, bewilderment and debate online, and Cooper’s rapid-fire reactions on the episode amplified that mix. The conversation feeds into a broader pattern: entertainers increasingly use unsparing honesty about sex and relationships to define a comic persona and to spark cultural conversation. My read? That candor risks controversy but also deepens authenticity with core fans — a trade-off many comics now accept.
What comes next is predictable: more interviews, more headlines, and perhaps clearer boundaries from the couple if public scrutiny intensifies. For now, Glaser says she wants honesty above surprise; if Convy does sleep with someone else, she wants to hear about it — and, she joked, she wants to see what the other woman looks like. Which raises the obvious question: how many celebrities can treat private life like content without losing privacy?
Regardless, the April 8 podcast episode stands as the most direct statement yet from Glaser on how she and Convy navigate intimacy—an image of modern coupling that is equal parts personal preference, performance and provocation.
