From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
My dislike of Whitney Cummings had me skipping her sit-com last year which sadly meant I missed out on being introduced to comedian and actor Chris D'Elia. Fortunate for me we were introduced recently with his comedy special White Man / Black Comic.
D'Elia isn't the type of guy I usually go for, but a man who can make me laugh, and laugh a lot is always attractive. White Man /Black Comic, includes not only D'Elia's well known drunk girl impression, it also includes a great piece on Homophobia and even more hilarious bit on Black Dudes laughing. D'Elia returns to network television this week with a new sitcom I will not pass up (Cummings does not appear in the credits). Although it appears NBC is burning off Undateable with the ratings season over, but if D'Elia's charm on stage translates to the sitcom, it will be worth a look.
Chris D'Elia (born March 29, 1980) is a Los Angeles-based stand-up comic, actor, writer, and rapper. He is best known for the role of Alex Miller on the NBC sitcom Whitney.
D'Elia has been featured on Comedy Central's Live at Gotham and Comedy Central Presents as well as on Showtime's Live Nude Comedy. He was introduced to a broader audience as a regular on the series Glory Daze, which ran for one season on TBS, playing "the Oracle", William Stankowski. He co-starred in the NBC comedy series Whitney, opposite comedian Whitney Cummings. On December 6, 2013, D'Elia's first one-hour stand-up special, White Male Black Comic, aired on Comedy Central.
D'Elia is one of three hosts of the Ten Minute Podcast, along with Bryan Callen and Will Sasso.
In January 2013, D'Elia released a parody rap album under the name "Chank Smith". His debut album is titled "Such Is Life".
