Well, you know, my name is Ced and I kinda consider myself an entertainer. Hey that ain't bad yeah, Cedric the Entertainer.

When you do stuff as a comedian, Hollywood sees you as a comedian and so most of the calls I get are for a funny movie or something like that.

I love stand up and it keeps me grounded, to say the stuff I have been thinking without anyone changing it.

Ive been blessed to have a long career.

Politics move, as fast as Twitter, and for everyone to think that in four years America was going to be perfect is ridiculous.

We as comics do want an immediate response from the audience. It's really quiet on the set, and there are only the producers, and the director, so a comic is looking for someone to give a reaction, even if it is the camera guy.

I want to be a little more dramatic nowadays. I definitely want something big and funny, but I look for things that can just have people see me in a different light and let me mature as both an entertainer and an actor and a comedian.
