You feel the pressure of going to university because you need a back-up plan, which is why I enrolled.

It's pretty awful being told you're a racist.

It's barely OK for me to be dressed up as a black guy. But part of me kind of enjoys provoking people.

I think my parents had a hard time dealing with me.

I'm pretty lucky. I don't get too many haters.

I started doing comedy just as myself, because I thought, "This is what's expected, you're meant to tell stories and do observations." And then I started to realize that I wanted to mix it up a bit, so I started to doing songs, and I had a little keyboard onstage and would bring in little props. Then I thought about the idea of talking about a character and becoming the character onstage. So, it sort of morphed into being stand-up that was more character based, and I found that's the stuff I got the better reaction from and was more exciting for me.

I'm not interested in being one of those comedians who wants to look good and be this 'cool' funny person. I don't care how weird or ugly I look.
