In her now award-winning stand-up special, Wong joked about how she and Hader got together.
“Hey Ali, I just happened to hear the news of your divorce today and I have to tell you…I’m excited,” she recalled Hader telling her in a phone call after he got her number from a mutual friend . “I am, Ali, because look, I’ve had a crush on you forever, and I actually told my best friend years ago that you were the girl of my dreams. And I know it sounds crazy, but uh, I want you to be my girlfriend.”
Wong said that while she was on tour in Europe, Hader followed up by sending her flowers in several cities. While her female friends thought the gesture was “so cute,” her male friends warned her that Hader might be a “psychopath.”
“That’s how cheap and lazy men have become,” Wong joked. “That now, when a fellow human being commits an act of kindness, any romantic gesture, it must be a symptom of an undiagnosed mental illness.”
