The Celebrity

Mike Epps

Mike Epps

Mike's got range. Not only is his IMDB as eclectic as they come (who else can boast The Sopranos, How High, and Dr. Doolittle on their rezy) he's one of the few performers whose got the chops to make you laugh on stage and screen. He got his break when Ice Cube saw him doing stand-up and cast him as Day-Day in Next Friday. He's been on the rise ever since, amassing one of the most passionate followings of any stand-up and appearing in huge hits (who didn't love Black Doug from Hangover). But what's most remarkable about Mike is his commitment to giving back. Whether it's serving as the Super Bowl ambassador to his hometown of Indianapolis or tirelessly empowering the kids of InsideOUT Writers to create a better life for themselves through creative expression, Mike is truly committed to helping others find the same success that he has had.
