Bill Bellamy's Who's Got Jokes? Blog
|
Posted By: Guest Visitor on August 29, 2007 Welcome to my Who’s Got Jokes blog! I was actually on the show (not sure which episode yet) and I had a lot of fun shooting in Atlanta where I was reacquainted with old friends and met a lot of new comics. But can I just say that the make-up we had to wear was crazy! Now, we were all accustomed to putting on a little make-up for a show but this time it was airbrushed. I looked in the mirror and thought I saw Little Richard! We all looked like 18 drag-queens backstage but the producers assured us it wouldn’t look the same under the lighting – I guess I’ll see when my episode hits the air. So, let’s talk about episode 1. Rodney Perry had me trippin’ when he walked out in the Prince “Purple Rain Starter Kit.” The hair-do was very Chaka Khan-ish. Fellas, looking for a nice way to tell your lady she need to get her hair done? Just say “Baby, you looking real Chaka Khan-ish right now.” She’ll know its time to go see the Dominicans. D.C. women, you know what I’m talking about! First up was my man James Davis who had sort of a tough time. But to be fair, the audience wasn’t allowed to laugh for the challenge round and that’s tough for a comedian. Doing comedy is like having sex – you need the feedback. It ain’t gonna work if the woman just lays there filing her nails talking bout, “let me know when you finish.” Next up was Cocoa Brown (representing the DC Comedy circuit) who brought the audience’s energy level WAY up. The audience had been sitting there so quiet and sad at first, it was like the show was at the unemployment office. She talked about men breaking women’s hearts, but men get their hearts broken too. One time, I lost so much weight over a broken heart my rib cage became visible. It’s hard to be sexy when you look like a greyhound dog. The next comedian was Reggie Reg who had on a fresh suit. My grandmamma used to say; “You got school clothes, church clothes and play clothes” and would spank you if she caught you outside in your “Sunday Shoes.” Moral of the story: You should never come on stage in your play clothes. Comedians, take notes from Reggie Reg and get you some church clothes and Sunday shoes. Remember, every show is like an interview for new fans. Last up was Tommy Chunn who had two HOT sets and ended up winning that night. My favorite joke was about George Foreman drinking the grease from the grill. If it’s a lean, mean grilling machine, why hasn’t George lost any weight? And what’s up with George’s book claiming Ali cheated in 1975 by putting something on his gloves to burn George’s eyes? George, you were fighting with a sweaty afro – maybe it was curl activator running in your eyes. Anyway, that’s enough for now, come back next week when I break down episode 2. And keep checking for my episode and let me know if I look like a mannequin.
