“I know I am odd. I know I’m eccentric,” says Socci. “I really want the audience to have a good time. I care about that so much, I want people who come to see me to be entertained. But at the same time, I want to be completely authentic to myself.” She has landed some MTV comedy spots and even a voice acting role on the beloved “Bob’s Burgers” with her biographical and vocal comedy.
“It’s kind of like a joke among my followers. You know, I go into like, I call it my WWE voice,” says Socci, “Like a really low register yelling.” Her SoCal fry combined with many different “characters” ensures her delivery always punches. “Some of my favorite people have interesting voices, so I take it as a compliment,” says Socci.
