*The Muslim Public Affairs Council today announced that it would present its 14th annual Media Award to the creators of “Allah Made Me Funny: The Official Muslim Comedy Tour” on October 1st in Los Angeles, CA. *
Azhar Usman truly is a riot. We saw him in Chicago on the long weekend and he made me laugh so much that I had tears running down my face (ruining my make up ) but it was well worth it.
Most comedians don’t make me laugh … my goodness though, he was hysterical! Preacher Moss is another Muslim comedian that is simply amazing. It’s funny cause Usman makes fun out of Pakistani culture and all the controversy surrounding Muslims in the news these days. In a way, we can all relate to it and understand where he is coming from. I hope he ocmes to Toronto, I definitely will go to see him.
^ I think they were here before Isna..they performed at the Living Arts Center
There is a show by Russell Peters (Canadian born Indian desi) on Oct 22nd. He is funny too..The tickets are expensive though...fifty bucks
Yeah, I think they were at Muslim-Fest (the one at the Living Arts Centre). I thought it was overpriced so I didn't go. I will definitely go next time though.
Yeah, Russell Peters is really funny, I love his humour. I ain't paying $50 to see him though . :p
Like MehnazQ, most comedians don't make me laugh but I was laughing so hard at an Allah made me Funny event that I had tears streaming down my face and I gave myself a huge headache. I didn't like Azhar Usman as much as the others because his Pakistani/Indian jokes were pretty common but Preacher Moss was definitely hilarious and even moreso the other guy who was also MCing the event and his marriage jokes!
