The comedian and Hacks star performed her hilariously snotty debut single at Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers' annual Las Culturistas bash
Meg Stalter infiltrated the 2026 Las Culturistas Culture Awards with a performance of her debut single, “Prettiest Girl in America.”
The actress and comedian took over the show with an introduction that saw her setting off an alarm that interrupted hosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers: “Attention all audience members,” the alert declared, “there have been reports of someone breaking into the pop scene, as well as into this very building. Eyewitnesses have described the suspect as dangerously pretty. Please remain calm.”
Stalter then declared, “Play the track, and no one gets hurt,” before stomping down the aisle with a troupe of backup dancers and singing the hilariously snotty lyrics: “But no one can see past my smile/My pain goes for miles and miles/Sometimes I wish I was a server or barista/But instead/I’m the prettiest girl in America.”
The performance ended with Stalter beating up her backup dancers, and Yang and Rogers returning to the stage to arrest the comedian for “being too pretty!”

Stalter’s “Prettiest Girl in America” was one of of the five songs nominated for the Culture Award for Record of the Year — and the only nominee to actually have been released in the year since the 2025 Culture Awards. The only other semi-recent nominee was Addison Rae’s “Fame Is a Gun,” released in May of last year, while the others were all from the early-2000s: t.A.T.u.’s “All the Things She Said,” Mandy Moore’s “Only Home,” and the Pokémon theme song.
Stalter, who’s best known for her work on Hacks and Lena Dunham’s Too Much, released “Prettiest Girl in America” in May. The track is set to appear on her debut album, Crave, which doesn’t have a release date yet, but is expected to arrive later this summer.
