Jose Barrientos stands out in the world of comedy with a background as diverse as his humor. A hacker, ex-soldier, magician, and born prankster, he weaves a tapestry of laughs from an array of seemingly dangerous skills. Instead of exploiting his eclectic expertise for anything sinister, Jose chooses to light up rooms with laughter, cleverly intertwining tales of digital escapades, military life, magical mysteries, and playful pranks. His unique act not only tickles the funny bone but also showcases the power of humor to transform and transcend.

Comedian Del Harrison
LAUGHS (FOX), THE WENDY WILLIAMS SHOW, THE MONIQUE SHOW (BET), CINEMATHERAPY (WETV), MADE (MTV)
She’s so funny, Rosie O’Donnell opened for her. Well, actually Rosie stopped in to do a guest set right before Del went on, but still, Del killed it right after that. Del Harrison or DEL, as most people call her, is very funny. We mean laugh-out-loud-tell-a-friend funny and she’s diverse: a singer, actor, writer, host and one hell of an entrepreneur. In 2009, DEL created Another Sketch Comedy Show online and kicked it off by spoofing the Monique Show (BET). The Mo’Nique Show sketch was so hilarious that Mo’Nique personally called DEL and invited her to be on her show.
Since then, Del’s web presence has rendered over 2 million views and her tv and radio appearances have taken flight. Del has been featured on FOX’s Laughs (Season 1 & 2), TruTV’s Friends of the People and the Wendy Williams.
