Cocoa Brown

Wild n Out Wednesday Comedy Show is proud to bring you superstar comedian Cocoa Brown!!!


If comedians were ingredients and you took a dab of Richard Pryor with a dash of Saturday Night Live, mixing in a teaspoon of Marilyn Monroe and a cup of Whoopi Goldberg, you'd get a dynamic dish known as CoCoa Brown. Not only a comedian, but an educated, well-rounded woman with a Masters in Education that will make you laugh as you are getting 'schooled" on a variety of topics!

With animated facial expressions, body gestures and the material to back it up, audiences are taken on a hilarious voyage through the eyes and mind of Brown. Whether she's talking about herself, relationships or the world we live in, Brown offers a variety that appeal to all. One-dimensional, she is not and you will never see the same set twice. "Once I get rolling, I feed off of my crowd, I love bringing them into my world" explains Brown. "I believe in being able to give the crowd what they want and I'm able to take my set in any direction at the drop of a dime." Versatile Brown can deliver on command a squeaky clean "there's-deacons-in-the audience" type of show and then make a 360-degree turn and give a show that would make even Don Rickles blush.

Delivering an honest and humorous show, Brown has generated a large and loyal following all over the world. Audiences are treated to Brown's thought-provoking humor, in which she declares "I don't tell jokes, I tell the truth!" Not only do they get a great show, but they feel as though they have gained a friend. She has a style that relates to both women and men and an energy and warmness on and off the stage that has earned her the respect and love of crowds and colleagues alike.

Brown has performed in front of a variety of audiences including Kennedy Center Honors Richard Pryor, Def Comedy Jam Tour and on Bill Bellamy's Who's Got Jokes competition on TV1. She has appeared on nine consecutive seasons on BET's Comic View, twice being voted Funniest Female on the popular show and was reigning champion on Showtime at the Apollo's, Comedy TKO and she has appeared on the Starz in Black's The 1st Amendment produced by Martin Lawrence. She has also been featured on Comedy Central's Comic Groove with Tracy Morgan and was a featured comedian on BET's stand up show, One Mic Stand.

Jackson, American Carolâ with Kelsey Grammar, Hittin' the Bricks with Dr. Dre, Blue Moon, Friendship with Seann William Scott, Robbin in da Hood and Mahogany Blues. She also appeared in the cutting edge comedy Biting Personalities at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Brown completed filming this past spring the new film, Quiet, with Emmy winning director Lauren Fash.

Brown has worked on many TV projects in which she always brings her unique personality through in all her characters. Her television credits show the wide range Brown is capable of playing. From concerned parent on The Young and The Restless, to the sassy receptionist on Las Vegas to the baker with allergies to chocolate on ER to the cheeky mail lady on AMC's Breaking Bad. But Brown will always stay true to her love for funny and sketch comedy. She's been Star Jones on Nick Cannon's Short Circuitz, a spooky beautician on Ashton Kutcher's Room 401and a Judge from hell on Next, all on MTV, to Morgan Freeman's Mom and Barack Obama's BIGGEST fan on Frank Caliendo's sketch show, Frank TV, to the queen of ghetto beat downs on the news sketch show Chocolate News, created by David Allen Grier, on Comedy Central.

Although Brown has been honing her craft over the past 6 years, 2012 is destined to be her break-out year. She was recently cast as Nurse Vickers on Nickelodeon's hit show, Victorious, and as Security guard Janice on the new Disney show, Austin & Ally. She also will be starring as the character Jennifer on the new Tyler Perry sitcom, For Better or Worse airing on TBS, has a recurring role on the new ABC show, Good Christian Belles, as the loveable nail technicianChardonnay, and kissed a girl on the new hit CBS show,2BrokeGirls created by Sex in the City creator, Michael Patrick King, all premiering in the Fall of 2011. Cocoa also has a re-occurring role on the new Cedric the Entertainer sitcom, Cedric, premiering in the spring of 2012 on TV Land.

Commercially she has appeared in a wide range of national and regional advertisements. Brown was the 2006 Spokesperson for SBC-AT&T Wireless Internet campaign; she made you choose Foster Farms chickens after choking an imposter in the Foster Farm campaign and as the cell phone obsessed Mom for Albertson's supermarkets. Currently you can catch Brown massaging Super Bowl Champion, Troy Aikman's head in the very funny NFL on Fox promos.
