Felipe Esparza is best known for his raw, real-life comedy that all audiences can relate to. He is also known for his wild hair and his often-imitated phrase, "what's up, fool?". Many people are surprised to find out that Felipe is the same person referred to and imitated in several onstage stories by fellow comedian, Gabriel Iglesias.
Felipe is a product of the streets of East Los Angeles (Boyle Heights, to be exact). There is no subject that Felipe can't make fun of. He could stand on a stage without a single joke and make people laugh, but that wouldn't happen. Felipe is one of the best comedy writers in the business. Give him a Tootsie Roll and he will write a five minute, gut-busting routine about it. That's the talent this young comic possesses.
Felipe is one of many new comedians that got immediate television exposure, when he appeared on a Showtime, "Diamonds in the Rough" segment, just 1 1/2 years into his stand-up career. Since that time, he has appeared on numerous television shows, including ABC's "Comics Unleashed", Showtime's "Comics Without Borders", BET's "Comic View" and "One Mic Stand", and Galavision's "Que Locos" (where he holds the title of most appearances by any comedian). He has also completed filming on his first feature-length film, "The Deported" directed by Lance Kawas and starring Nick Turturro and Paul Rodriguez amongst others.
Felipe can be seen in comedy clubs and theaters all over the United States.
