Model Mom

Rosalee Mayeux builds her hour around the contrast between stashing cocaine in her bra at Studio 54 and finding Cheerios in it while raising two teenage boys in the Hollywood Hills. She leans into the absurdity of trying to parent adolescent sons with a background built on 1980s Ford modeling shoots, Bloomingdale’s bra ads, and commercial acting.

The set leans toward autobiographical storytelling rather than rapid club punchlines, covering a run as a butt model, taking a drug dealer to lunch, a neighbor’s gun, and learning from her adoptive parents in Louisiana that she cost $500. Much of the back half follows her sons starting teen boy bands in Los Angeles and turning her into their roadie at local venues like the Roxy and Amoeba.

Model Mom is Mayeux’s debut special, released by Comedy Dynamics on March 10, 2026, running 51 minutes and directed by Gary Robinson. Before turning to stand-up after a cancer diagnosis, she spent decades in commercial and screen acting, appearing in over 300 spots along with roles in The Lawnmower Man, Blast from the Past, and Magnum, P.I., plus an artist residency in Quentin Tarantino’s commercial directing division.

Critical coverage has stayed quiet outside of friendly press like Wellbeing Magazine praising her observations on aging and domestic chaos, though she was already developing a second special for Comedy Dynamics by July 2026.
