Comedian Rosalie Vaillancourt recently revisited her 2016 performance and found it quite annoying. During an episode of “Sucré Givré,” hosted by Jean-Philippe Dion, she reflected on her high-pitched voice and why it can be tiring for the audience. She stated, “I understand why everyone finds me exhausting.”
Reflecting on Her Early Career
In her 2016 act, Vaillancourt humorously noted, “It’s certainly dull to have a silly high-pitched voice, but I think there are advantages. I could be the first comedian whose show is only heard by dogs.” This self-awareness highlights her unique comedic approach.
Growth and Maturity
Looking back, she believes her early nervousness resulted in a higher vocal pitch. “My heart was pounding so hard that it affected my voice. It was higher, but I don’t mind because my persona is that of a bubbly girl,” she explained. She feels her voice has matured, becoming deeper over time.
Upcoming Projects and Family Life
Currently, Vaillancourt is preparing for her second solo show, “MILF,” which will run from 2023 to 2025. Last year, this show earned her the prestigious Olivier award for “Show of the Year.” “It resonated well because I was speaking about real experiences,” she noted.
- Show Title: MILF
- Duration: 2023 to 2025
- Award: Olivier for Show of the Year (2022)
Personal Challenges
As she juggles her career and impending motherhood, her family is growing. She is expecting a baby boy, who will join her four-year-old daughter, Marguerite. Vaillancourt shared her experience of preparing a nursery, having invested nearly $5,000 to build two walls for the baby’s room.
On the personal front, she has been feeling overwhelmed. “I’m really tired. I thought I would write and create a lot, but after five minutes of writing, I’m exhausted,” she confided. In an effort to maintain her fitness, she has been attending a women’s training center in her hometown, Boucherville.
Support from Friends
She also mentioned exercising with fellow expectant mother, Longueuil Mayor Catherine Fournier. They have participated in activities like “ballon bedaine,” which benefits their well-being during pregnancy.
Rosalie Vaillancourt’s journey highlights her evolution as a comedian, her candid reflections on her voice, and her life as a mother-to-be.
