Comedian Natasha Leggero gave fans quite a show when she ditched her top at the start of her stand-up set.

“If the boys can do it, why can’t the girls?” she said onstage at the Hollywood Improv in Los Angeles this past week.

Leggero’s surprise reveal followed fellow comedian Bert Kreischer’s shirtless performance.

In a video obtained by TMZ, a bare-chested Kreischer introduced Leggero to the stage.

The 50-year-old comedian, who was dressed in a white, furry coat over denim overalls, walked up to the song “Still D.R.E.” by Dr. Dre.

Without a word, she stripped off her coat and tossed it into the crowd.

She then proceeded to undo the straps of her overalls and remove her shirt, exposing her own bare chest to the crowd.

The unsuspecting audience screamed and laughed in shock.

“Holy s—t,” Kreischer yelled from the crowd, adding that he will have to start taking his pants off during his stand-ups to top Leggero.

Leggero’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The mother of one — who welcomed her first child with Moshe Kasher in 2018 — was one of several big names to grace the stage in Hollywood on Wednesday night.

Other big names featured during Skyler Stone’s Comedy Rocks event included David Spade and Tiffany Haddish.
