Hailed as one of the funniest comics around, Chris Tucker has come a long way since his stand-up comedy days on Def Comedy Jam. Starring in box-office smashes that include one of the top grossing comedies of all time, Rush Hour 2, as well as Friday, Dead Presidents and Money Talks and the original Rush Hour (which has grossed $250 million worldwide), Tucker has clearly proved himself to be one of Hollywood’s fastest rising comedians.

With his unique voice, fast-paced humor, and animated facial expressions, Tucker entertains all audiences and has left a lasting impression on the American psyche.

In honor of his proven track record of power as a box-office funnyman, the world’s theater owners recently named Tucker, Comedy Star of the Year at
ShoWest.
