Miami, FL – HBO Latin America has announced the premiere of the HBO original stand-up special, Whitney Cummings: I’m Your Girlfriend on January 23rd at 23:30hrs AST*. The one-hour special features the American comedienne, Whitney Cummings, co-creator of the hit series 2 Broke Girls, as she headlines her first HBO stand-up special, taped live at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica, California.
