Kelly Rizzo honored Bob Saget by doing standup
Kelly Rizzo stepped out of her comfort zone and did the unthinkable to pay homage to her late husband Bob Saget. On January 30, Jeff Ross held a show at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles to honor his longtime pal and attendees had a surprising guest hit the stage. "So remember when I said you'll never see me do standup?? Well I guess I got a couple jokes in but paying tribute to my legendary and incredible husband on stage where his career began over 40 years ago was the honor of my life," Rizzo revealed on Instagram.
The blogger shared a series of candid photos on social media of herself in front of a crowd of people, while she was surrounded by some of the actor's legendary close friends, like Ross, Jim Carrey, Chris Rock, John Stamos, and John Mayer. "I know he would've gotten a huge kick out of me being up on stage," she added.
Rizzo went on to express that her husband "deserves EVERY bit of all of this love" and stressed the importance of never passing up an opportunity to share how much you care for someone. "Follow Bob's lead and tell your loved ones how much they mean to you every damn day." Hundreds of people also left encouraging words for her after her performance. "Bob would have been.... IS... so proud of you for going up there last night. Love you, Kelly," one fan wrote.
