Rodney Perry

ABOUT:

The term “gotta laugh to keep from crying” could easily be any comedian's mantra but for one Louisiana transplant, the track to the top has taught Rodney Perry to laugh out loud at all his naysayers. A U.S. Navy veteran, his first entertainment job was serving as writer and warm-up guy for Kym Whitleyʼs BET show “Oh Drama,” and opening shows up for George Lopez, Cedric the Entertainer and Steve Harvey. Perry is a comedian at heart but has enjoyed co-hosting the competitive TV shows like “Who's Got Jokes” or BETʼs “MoʼNique Show.” He is proud of his starring role as Harold in Tyler Perryʼs Madeaʼs Big Happy Family. He can be heard weekly on his popular radio show, Rodney Perry Live, or every Tuesday night as the current host of Bounce TV’s “Off the Chain!”
