Ricki Lake on talk shows, musicals, and starting over
This week it's the ultimate reinventionist, Ricki Lake! S.E. finds out how Ricki Lake manages to always take big swings in her career — from her out-of-the-blue starring role in Hairspray, to becoming a talk show legend in her 20s, to making a very personal and revealing documentary — and doesn't get pulled under by self doubt and the pressures of a fickle business. Ricki shares some of her personal heartache and why, despite it all, she can still view life optimistically. She talks about the shock of losing her home in the LA wildfires, her return to New York City and why she's living her best life now. And stay tuned for a very musical lightning round!
