If you've missed Margaret Cho's raunchy brand of comedy, her new "scripted reality sitcom," The Cho Show, debuts this month on VH1 and follows the comedienne and hangers-on through outrageous adventures in Hollywood. Cho sat down with Radar to talk about anal bleaching, defending Britney Spears, and winning the Korean of the Year Award.

About unflattering photos of Britney, Cho says, "That has happened to me and every other woman millions of times. It was disgusting that someone took a picture and tried to make it all about Britney's character." Cho's also got a new standup show called "Beautiful."  She got the idea when a radio interviewer asked her what she'd do if she woke up one day and was beautiful. "I was like, 'What do you mean, what if, bitch?' "
