Nikki Glaser Encourages Her Boyfriend to Have Hookups: ‘It’s Just What I’m Into’

Comedian, actress, and TV host Nikki Glaser, 41, has never been one to mince words. She gets brutally honest making fun of herself in her standup act, as well as when she’s completely roasting other people. So it’s no real surprise she’s talking openly about her personal sex life, specifically how she encourages her partner to hook up with other women because she “kinda likes it.”

On a new episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, the Golden Globes host discusses what she calls her “Hot Husband Fetish,” which she defines as “when you want your partner to have sexual experiences with other people outside of the relationship.”

Glaser and her partner, producer Chris Convy, 45, have been in an on-and-off relationship for over a decade. Glaser explains that when they first started dating, she asked Convy to detail past hookups, former girlfriends, how they got together, and how they figured out they liked one another.

“I loved that … It would make me horny to think about him doing that with other girls,” she continues. “It would really be like a foreplay for me. I would get revved up talking about it.”

When podcast host Alex Cooper asks Glaser if this means she identifies as polyamorous, Glaser clarifies, “I don’t want another girlfriend. I don’t want to be in bed with you guys, together,” adding, “I just want to hear about it later.”

Glaser says, for herself, she’s not interested in hooking up outside her relationship. “I don’t really care about that. But I don’t care if someone else were to. In fact, I kinda like it.”

When Convy ran out of new stories about other women, Glaser says she urged him to “get some more stories.”

Trying to further articulate why this work for her, she says, “Maybe it’s my competitive nature. I want a guy that other girls want.”

Glaser shares that the couple does have some guardrails around their arrangement. “Emotional cheating would hurt me,” she explains. She also says, “I just feel like I understand how sex is for men most of the time. Outside of a relationship, it’s just transactional.”

She didn’t want to elaborate on any hookup specifics, but she does say, “There have been some interesting things that were really fun for me to hear about and experience—and fun for him too.”

Glaser admits this kind of arrangement probably isn’t right for everyone and she’s just following what currently works for her in her relationship. “There’s probably a sadness to it. But it’s just what I’m into, and I can’t help it.”
