 Carlos Mencia, superstar/stand-up comedian, is
undoubtedly one of today’s most lauded entertainers and feared comics. Whether
it is man-on-the-street interviews, studio comedy, commercial parodies, or
nationwide sold-out tours, Mencia demonstrates an extraordinary ability to
connect with a diverse audience.  Carlos
connected again with a film audience with the recent Fox Searchlight feature
release “Our Family Wedding” starring opposite Forrest Whitaker. Mencia was
named "International Comedy Grand Champion" from Buscando Estrellas
(the Latino version of Star Search). This led to appearances on “In Living
Color,” “The Arsenio Hall Show,” “Moesha” and “An Evening at the Improv.”  Mencia continued his journey up the comedy
ladder by headlining “The Three Amigos” tour with Freddy Soto and Pablo
Francisco which sold out in record time around the US.  After the success of his solo dvd, “Carlos
Mencia: Not For The Easily Offended,” “Mind of Mencia” went into development.  The show was an instant hit. Wrapping five
seasons later, the show was one of the strongest shows in the network’s
history. In fall 2007, Mencia starred opposite Ben Stiller in the Farrelly
Brothers’ hit feature film, “The Heartbreak Kid.  In December 2007, Mencia embarked on his
first USO Tour to the Persian Gulf where he entertained the troops serving over
seas. Mencia recently returned from his second trip to Kuwait after hosting
“Operation Myspace,” an exclusive concert for American Troops in the Middle
East alongside Jessica Simpson and The Pussycat Dolls.  You Tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bs00-kPIoM8&feature=player_embedded
