Nikki Glaser isn't the only famous face from Missouri.
The actress, comedian and host of The Nikki Glaser Podcast is headed back to her hometown of St. Louis, MO in her new E! reality series Welcome Home Nikki Glaser?, which premieres on May 1.
In the early days of the pandemic, Nikki left behind the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and moved back home with her parents, Julie and EJ Glaser. But life with Mom and Dad is anything but boring, as the star promised that fans can look forward to a "thoroughly chaotic" new series. What could possibly go wrong in?
