George Perez

The new and exciting face of comedy is George Perez. Growing up in the mean streets of Orange County George knew he was destined to make people laugh since the early age of 13 years old; performing for his family and now performing at the top comedy circuits across the nation. Along with being one of the brightest and hilarious comics around George is an accomplished actor screenwriter and proud father of four children.nnEvolving Hollywood.com calls George Perez “the freshest face in comedy with a comedic range that can compete with the best of them.” (2014). George uses his own life experiences as his anecdote to every joke. His poise and familiarity with growing up in the streets becoming a young father and tearing down every stereotype has evolved George as a fresh comic making light of his tragedies and growth. It also allows the audience to relate to him on multiple levels; allowing him to cross over with all audiences through original storytelling and authenticity.nnGeorge Perez has appeared on numerous television shows such as Comedy Central SHOWTIME PAYASO COMEDY SLAM LATV Live Loco Comedy Jam Mind of Mencia Master P’s Black Superman and starred in three episodes of MTV's Yo Momma where he got to use his sly wit and quick thinking to win his episode. After working with Wilmer Valderama he was asked to return for the Best of LA episode as a final competitor with MTV’s highest ratings. Other appearances include Fox’s Laugh TV and the anticipated comedy film entitled “Taco Shop” from the Producers of Selena.
