COMEDY'S LOVABLE QUEEN OF MEAN

Undeniable likeability, a bawdy personality, and a story to tell. Comedian Lisa Lampanelli has all three -- and then some! Able to "get away with saying ANYTHING," according to NY Friars Club Dean Freddie Roman, Lampanelli conquered the club scenes in both New York City and Los Angeles in a few short years. 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 described her as "a REAL funny broad."

Nicknamed "Comedy's Lovable Queen of Mean" (NY Times), Lampanelli has been all over television as of late. Her headlining performance on the "Comedy Central Roast of Pamela Anderson" received national attention, and landed her subsequent appearances on CNN and Comedy Central's "Weekends at the D.L." Her one-hour special, "Take It Like a Man," was a hit with the comedy network yet again, and the CD and the DVD of the same name debuted at #13 on the comedy charts.

All of this began in 2002 when Lisa was the only female comedian invited to skewer Chevy Chase on the NY Friars Club Roast on Comedy Central. She soon became one of the few white comedians to perform on BET's "Comic View," cementing her huge crossover appeal. And just this past year, she rocked Comedy Central once again in her back-to-back appearances on "Premium Blend" and on the enormously rated, "Roast of Jeff Foxworthy." Again, the only female invited to roast the man of honor, Lampanelli proved she can "Git-R-Done" with the best of 'em.

Lisa has also taped several specials for VH1, MTV, and CMT, and was featured on the "Best of" episode of Comedy Central's "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn." With frequent spots on XM and Sirius satellite radio, Lampanelli is becoming a draw in major comedy markets across the country. In spring of 2006, Lisa will star in "Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector," in which she plays a foul-mouthed dirty broad, and this year, she starred in the feature film, "The Aristocrats," in which she played a foul-mouthed dirty comic. Go figure!!!

Here's what they're saying about Lisa . . .

Comedian Doug Stanhope. . . "Lisa Lampanelli is the Secretary of Comedy. She can stereotype people at a rate of 120 a minute with only one typo."

Howard Stern . . . "Lisa's a REAL funny broad!"

The New York Times . . . "Queen of Mean. An equal-opportunity offender."

Time Out New York . . . "Lampanelli has one of the meanest acts out there -- and people love it."

Lenny Bruce biographer, Ronald Collins . . . "Lisa Lampanelli is a comedian with an independent and irreverent streak akin to that of Lenny Bruce. Her robust comedy, like Bruce's, takes no prisoners -- and that's just how it should be."

The Toronto Star . . . "Howard Stern on estrogen . . . a cross between Archie Bunker and Totie Fields . . . a comedy dominatrix who takes no prisoners. There's no doubt this gal delivers."

Sally Jessy Raphael . . . "Lisa is one of the funniest persons alive!"

Cary Hoffman, Owner of Stand-Up NY. . . "Lisa is Totie Fields with two legs!"

The New York Daily News . . . "A hilarious lady! There hasn't been a standing-O in this part of Brooklyn since Walter O'Malley died."

NY Friars Club newsletter . . . "Friar Lampanelli has been shocking audiences across this great nation of ours with her irreverent humor and politically incorrect jokes for the last five years. If Don Rickles had breasts and PMS, this is the woman he'd be."

Long Island Entertainment . . . "Closing the show was the intensely blunt Lisa Lampanelli, a woman who is regularly compared to Don Rickles for her relentlessly aggressive work with audiences. Once she gets cranked up, you don't know whether to bow, scatter or move to a dark corner of the room, but one thing is clear, Lampanelli can make people laugh. She doesn't find taboos anyplace and blasts away on any and all ethnic types (and stereotypes). If you like your humor spontaneous and no-holds-barred, you'll want to catch this lady soon. You like to be left alone? Sit WAY in the back."

The Canton (OH) Repository . . . "Described as the female Don Rickles, this tough broad from Brooklyn is an equal-opportunity insulter. Her jaw-dropping wisecracks are too hilarious to be offensive."

Good Times magazine . . . "Paralyzingly funny . . . She kept the audience laughing and didn't let up for a second."

Newsday . . . "Stern as a dominatrix."

Albany mother of three during radio call-in . . . "Lisa Lampanelli is the reason we have school shootings!"
