Comedians

Headliner Comedian: Debi Gutierrez

In a world where high-fashion, Botox and intense scrutiny to be the "perfect" wife... mom... woman, Debi Gutierrez bursts into the limelight with a relatable sharp wit, energy and realism that makes it OK to be human again. Her unique combination of observational humor, experience and sincerity leads her audience on a hilarious journey through the ups and downs of parenting and relationships that strikes a chord of truth that makes everyone laugh. Debi has appeared on Lifetime, Showtime, HBO, “Malcolm and Eddie” (as the Ebay Girl), ABC’s “Laughin’ Out Loud” and much more! Her daily parenting talk show, “A Place of Our Own”, a three-time Emmy nominee, airs nationally on PBS affiliates and has won the prestigious Peabody Award and The Parents’ Choice Award. Debi is also the host of a “Hidden Agenda” on the Game Show Network. Whether she's carting the kids to the grocery store, delivering Avon, performing stand-up comedy, or hosting her talk show or game show, one thing remains true of Debi, she is an All American Mom...but with a twist! We are thrilled that Debi is a part of the LFTC family and are lucky to have her as our 2010 LFTC headlining comedian.

Feature Comedian: Frankie Paul

Frankie Paul has been touring professionally since 1990 and entertaining audiences from all over the country. Born in NYC, he was raised in Melbourne, FL and he still calls The Sunshine State home. Frankie says “Everything I’ve learned, I’ve learned under a palm tree.” Frankie has a unique knack for describing a typically unnoticeable situation and taking it to new levels of hysterics. With an animated appearance and a positive edge, Frankie Paul takes his crowds on a silly roller coaster ride of uproarious laughter. To learn more about Frankie Paul, visit his website at www.frankiepaulcomedy.com. We look forward to having him perform on the LFTC stage as our 2010 feature comedian

Emcee: "D" Cameron

"D" Cameron is Charlotte's favorite teacher. During the school year, D is a Charlotte-Mecklenburg teacher and in the summer he is a working comedian. A long time friend of The Comedy Zone and Laugh for the Cure®, D's humor will leave you wanting to hear more and wishing your child could be a student in his classroom. D is a hilarious and talented comedian and professional master of ceremonies. We are excited to have him return to LFTC as our 2010 emcee!
