Wanda Sykes Tickets |
Andrew Dice Clay Tickets |
Sykes is known for her sassy personality and blunt observations on current events, the difference between the sexes and races, and life in general. Much of her humor comes from her delivery, timing and distinctive voice, a loud, brassy instrument that adds an edge to her humor. An example of her humor is this observation of hers about white-collar corporate thieves: "You get mugged, you might lose what you got on that DAY. But I ain't never been mugged of my FUTURE." She has appeared in such films as Pootie Tang and on TV shows such as Curb Your Enthusiasm. She was a regular performer and writer for The Chris Rock Show. In 2003, she starred in her own, short-lived Fox network sitcom, Wanda at Large. The same year, Sykes appeared in an hour-long comedy special, Tongue Untied, that aired on Comedy Central. That network also ranked her #70 on its list of the 100 greatest standups of all time. She has also served as a correspondent for HBO's Inside the NFL, has hosted Comedy Central's popular Premium Blend, and provides the voice for a recurring character named Gladys on Comedy Central's puppet show Crank Yankers. Sykes wrote Yeah, I Said It, a book of humorous observations on various topics, which was published in September 2004.
