Even before appearing on “Last Comic Standing,” Alonzo Bodden knew there was nothing that would ever make him give up comedy. “That’s the drug,” he says “when they laugh it’s like I’m a jazz musician and they hear it, and they get it. It’s power to take the crowd wherever I want them to go. I love it when they laugh, especially when they relate through laughter. It’s a beautiful thing. It also means I’m going to get paid, which is nice.” His one-hour comedy special, “Who’s Paying Attention?” premiered on Showtime. Introduced to America on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing,” Alonzo Bodden was runner up on Season 2 and came back to crowned the Winner of Last Comic Standing Season 3. Since then, he’s been a regular on NBC’s “The Tonight Show” and a favorite guest on Adam Corolla’s radio show and podcast. While his movie career has consisted mainly of playing security guards, he’s protected the best; Steve Martin and Queen Latifah in “Bringing Down The House” and Leslie Nielsen in “Scary Movie 4.” He’s hosted “101 Cars You Must Drive” on Speed Channel and “America’s Worst Driver” on The Travel Channel. He is currently a comedic panelist on Game Show Network’s “Mind of a Man.” Needless to say, Alonzo Bodden continues to tour the world with his amazing stand-up material. He’s like fine wine. He just keeps getting better and better with time.
