Top Offensive comedians profiled: Roy "Chubby" Brown

0 Comments

 
Roy 'Chubby' Brown is a stand-up comedian born in England on February 3, 1945. He is infamous for his sarcastic blue humour and outrageously racist, sexist and homophobic gags. He was described as most impertinent comedian. It's a distinction that's meant he's rarely been allowed to perform on TV that turned out to be more of a blessing than a curse as he's done real comfortably for himself off the back of his fans buying his videos, DVDs, audio cassettes and show tickets. The controversial nature of his act magnetized inculpation's that his comedy style is outdated whilst also being described as "the most important comedian of the past 25 years".

Brown's figure is characterised by a clown-like stage costume: flying helmet and goggles, a multicoloured patchwork jacket and trousers, a white shirt, a red bow tie and moccasin slippers. "You fat bastard!" is usually shouted repeatedly by his audience on his typical stand-up show to which he dances and when he approaches the microphone, he will either say "Fuck off!" or "How Did You Know It Was Fucking Me!". Brown released a film called U.F.O starring himself as Roger Lloyd Pack abducted by aliens while staying in a hotel in Blackpool during his live shows.

One of his best known songs is a cover version of  "Living Next Door to Alice" recorded with Smokie titled "Living Next Door to Alice (Who the Fuck is Alice?)". He released a solo single called "A Rocking Good Christmas" (1996) and also released two albums, Take Fat and Party (1995) and Fat Out of Hell (1996).

Top Offensive comedians profiled: Chris Morris

Christopher Morris was born in England on 15th of June 1962. He is known for his black humour, surrealism and controversial subject matter as a satarist and writer. He is also a director, actor, voice actor, and producer. He has been hailed by the British Film Institute for his "uncompromising, moralistic drive". He is one of the more enigmatic figures in British comedy because of his tendency to avoid the media spotlight.

     

BBC Local Radio station is where Morris began his career. In the early 1990s, Morris teamed up with Armando Iannucci who is his radio producer to create a satire of new programmes titled On The Hour and which was later expanded into a television spin off, The Day Today. This program has since been hailed as one of the most important satirical shows of the 1990s. Morris further developed the satirical news format with Brass Eye focusing on themes such as crime and drugs, and which lampooned celebrities. A Brass Eye special, which dealt with the moral panic surrounding paedophilia quickly became one of the most complained about programmes in British television history. He was then described as "the most loathed man on TV" by the Daily Mail.

Morris's postmodern sketch radio show Blue Jam helped him to gain a cult following. After expanding a Blue Jam sketch into My Wrongs 8245-8249 & 117, he won a BAFTA for Best Short Film. He also created a sitcom titled as Nathan Barley in collaboration with Charlier Brooker that satirised hipsters. And he also joined the cast of the Graham Linehan sitcom The IT Crowd which was his first project that he did not have writing or producing input.

In 2010, Morris directed Four Lions, his first feature-length film which satirised Islamic terrorism through a group of inept British Pakistanis. The film has largely positive reception earning Morris his second BAFTA, for "Outstanding Debut". Since 2012, he has directed three episodes of Iannucci's political comedy Veep.

Samuel Burl "Sam" Kinison was born on December 8, 1953 in Yakima, Washington, USA. He was a stand-up comedian and actor known for his intense, harsh and politically incorrect wit. A former Pentecostal preacher-turned-comedian, Kinison performed stand-up acts that were most often characterized by a fierce style, similar to enthusiastic preachers. He developed a signature style in which his rants would end in a fevered scream (he would punctuate jokes with his trademark "Oh! Ooooohhhhh!!"). 



Kinison began his career in Houston, Texas, where he performed in small clubs. He became a member of Texas Outlaw Comics, a comedic group at the Comedy Workshop. He became famous not until his appearance on HBO's Rodney Dangerfield's Ninth Annual Young Comedians Special in the summer of 1984. His appearance on the special became his breakthrough performance. Kinison portrayed on his former role as a Bible-preaching evangelist, taking satirical and sacrilegious shots at the Bible, Christianity and famous Christian evangelist scandals of his day. His popularity rose to unimaginable heights with HBO cable specials, frequent appearances on Saturday Night Live and In Living Color, and even a starring role on Charlie Hoover, a short-lived Fox sitcom. A shot of his personalized license plate reveals the words "EX REV" on several videos of his stand-up routines.

On his way to a sold-out show in Nevada with her wife Malika, their car was hit head on by a teenage drunk driver killing Sam last April 10, 1992.
