LISA LAMPANELLI

LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26

Coquitlam, BC – Heralded as "more than a stand-up – standout" by comedy legend Jim Carrey, insult comic Lisa Lampanelli is a cross between Don Rickles, “Archie Bunker” and a vial of estrogen. She even won accolades from The King of All Media, Howard Stern who called her "a true original and a brilliant comedy mind who'll steal the show every time." Her rise to the top of the comedy food chain began in 2002 when she was the only female comedian invited to skewer Chevy Chase on Comedy Central Presents: The N.Y. Friars Club Roast. In 2003, she rocked Comedy Central once again in her back-to-back appearances on Premium Blend and on the enormously rated Comedy Central Roast of Jeff Foxworthy … again, the only female invited to roast the man of honour.

In 2005, Lampanelli’s one-hour special, Take It Like a Man was a hit with the network yet again while the DVD hit #6 on the comedy charts. Then in 2007, her second one-hour special, Dirty Girl debuted on Comedy Central and was released on Warner Bros. Records reaching #4 on the charts. It was also nominated for a Grammy Award for ”Best Comedy Album of the Year”. Her feature film appearances include Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector, Delta Farce and The Aristocrats. In 2009, her book, Chocolate, Please: My Adventures in Food, Fat and Freaks was released. Earlier this year, she was a contestant on the fifth installment of NBC’s The Celebrity Apprentice where she earned a spot in the Final Four. Known for saying things that most people are afraid to think, Lampanelli continues to perform her gut-busting performances at venues across North America and will be appearing at Boulevard Casino’s Red Robinson Show Theatre on October 26, 2012.
