It didnât take long for people to take notice and share her videos across social media. Â Cooperâs TikTok success translated into guest-hosting ABCâs late-night talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, while the showâs titular host was taking a vacation.
Cooperâs Netflix special, Sarah Cooper: Everythingâs Fine, premiered on the streaming platform on October 27th and not only does it have Cooperâs signature style of lip-syncing President Donald Trumpâs own words, but it has some major celebrity cameos. Some of the celebrities appearing in Cooperâs Netflix special are Fred Armisen, Maya Rudolph, Jonathan Van Ness, Jane Lynch, Helen Mirren, and many more.
In Everythingâs Fine, Cooper pokes fun at QAnon, Karens, the insanity of 2020, and âThe Tape.â Many of you will remember in 2016 a tape surfaced of Trump and Access Hollywoodâs Billy Bush talking about Days of Our Lives actress Arianne Zucker in the most inappropriate way. It was this tape that brought us the phrase âgrab âem by the pussy.â Cooper uses the full audio from the Access Hollywood tape, and she, along with Dame Helen Mirren, creates their own âlocker roomâ talk. A preview of the recreation can be seen below.
Everythingâs Fine also manages to capture the anxiety over the nonstop absurdities of 2020 perfectly in both subtle and obvious ways.
