E!’s upcoming show Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? will star Nikki Glaser, a stand-up comedian, television host, actress, writer, producer, and podcast/radio host. With a net worth of $2 million, Nikki will be sharing her time in her hometown of St. Louis on her upcoming show, which will premiere on May 1.

Glaser, who moved to her hometown during the pandemic, has no plans to fly to work. The celebrity has documented her stay in St. Louis, which will be featured on Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? Amidst this, she has also joined Explore St. Louis to encourage the local travel and tourism economy of her hometown. Viewers will find her talking about the City Museum, the Magic House, and the Saint Louis Zoo.

The official press release of the show reads:

"Uprooted from her fast-paced Hollywood lifestyle, Nikki returns to St. Louis where she embarks on a hilarious and often uncomfortable journey of self-discovery. In the midst of her chaotic move, Nikki leans heavily on her parents Julie and EJ Glaser, her childhood bestie Kerstin Robertson, her platonic roommate Andrew Collin, and even her ex-boyfriend Chris Convy. As a big fish in a small pond, Nikki also experiences a comedy of errors as she struggles to find love."

It further adds:

"Despite being back home, her focus is still sharp as she continues to hustle more than ever to make sure her star stays on the rise. She is testing out the waters as a musician and often ropes her family into her professional sphere, sometimes to their joy or embarrassment. Though her career is at a high, Nikki stays grounded by her friends and family who still see her as just Nikki from St. Louis."
