Parlor Live Comedy Club in Bellevue, WA is proud to present Comedian, actress, tv host and author, Loni Love on her new Loni Love & Chill “A Funny Kind of Love” comedy tour March 17th – 19th. Loni is in demand and loving it as she returned as co-host for season 2 of her hit daytime talker “The Real” this past year. The nationally syndicated show which airs on Fox stations (with a rebroadcast in primetime on cable network BET) was recently renewed for 2 more years through the 2017/2018 season and has been touted by the New York Post as “fun, funny, involved in life, outrageous by nature, warm and, most of all, real.”
“The Real” recently launched “Loni’s Laugh Off,” a stand-up comedy competition to find the newest up and coming comedy talent. “This is close to me, because I started doing stand-up when I was still working as an engineer. It took a long time before I could quit my day job and make a living off my jokes. So, if you’re out there with a nine-to-five job, spending your nights at open mics, this competition is for you.” Says Loni. Viewers (18 or older who have never appeared on television doing stand up) had until Friday, February 12 to go to www.TheReal.com and upload a short video (no more than 3 minutes) of their best comedy routine. Loni will pick her 3 favorites and then viewers will vote on-line on the 3 finalists with the winner being chosen on “The Real” March 2. In addition, the grand prize winner will get to open for Loni at one of her LIPSHTICK STAND-UP COMEDY SHOWS at the Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada. Lipshtick was the 2015 winner of “Best Comedy Show” by the Las Vegas Review Journal, and has featured comediennes such as Loni, Lisa Lampanelli and Roseanne Barr.
Loni currently co-hosts the Café Mocha radio show cafemocharadio.com with rapper MC Lyte. They’ve interviewed President Obama and the First Lady as well as superstars like John Legend, Toni Braxton among many others. Café Mocha is the only nationally syndicated show of its kind that was created exclusively BY and FOR women of color. You can catch the nationally syndicated show on over 40 stations across the country including SiriusXM Channel 141. Additionally, Loni has guest hosted on Fashion Police and has been a correspondent for Entertainment Tonight and E as well as regular appearances spinning tunes as the house DJ on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Along with her work on television, Loni is set to co-star on the big screen this spring in director Garry Marshall’s new film, Mother’s Day and can also be seen in several movies, including the successful Paul Blart Mall Cop 2 opposite Kevin James, Soul Plane with Kevin Hart and the Bad Ass franchise with Danny Glover and Danny Trejo.
In addition, Loni is the subject of the documentary “Being Loni Love.” “Being Loni Love” traces Loni’s life story from her early days as a latchkey daughter growing up in Detroit’s Brewster-Douglas housing projects to national stand up comedienne, tv and movie star. “I was honored when the “Being” producers wanted to hear my story. I want to share my life story to inspire all women that they can become and achieve whatever they want.” Says Loni.
“Being Loni Love” originally aired on the Centric channel and you can view the documentary here: https://vimeo.com/139670526 password: loni0917
