Flying is just such a hassle. If I had a million dollars, I would teleport.
— Jermaine Fowler
I have a lot of energy, and as you get to know me, you will quickly learn that! I channel my energy into my acting, my writing, everything.
I started pursuing stand-up comedy in 12th grade.
I'm a '90s kid. I can't wait until the day when more people start appreciating the '90s.
When you chase a dream, and no one understand or has your back except seven friends from high school and your grandma, it's not going to be easy.
Nick Cage is so underrated.
We can all agree that the best part of 'Black Panther' was his female army, the Dora Milaje. They made the movie.
I don't do anything for press.
Comedians play off of social commentary.
I was influenced by a lot of comedy growing up, I had good parents. They were funny, too. My mom was hilarious; my dad was hilarious. I guess being at home around the environment was just a good stage to get started.
I wanted people to know that my grandmother was the reason why I did comedy in the first place. She pushed me to really get out there and pursue my dreams.
I want to star in an action-comedy, like 'The Rock' or 'Con Air.' Those are the movies I wanted to star in since I was a kid.
Spider-Man is supposed to be 'neighborhood friendly,' but I've never seen that dude at a Black Lives Matter march.
Black Panther is a cool superhero and all, but let's be honest: He doesn't quite have the legs to prop up a blockbuster on his own.
I'm a comic; we get hecklers every night! It's really just part of the job.
My friend gave me a VHS tape of Eddie Murphy's 'Raw.' I watched it so many times, I fell in love with it. I would watch it every day, just picking it apart. And then I started doing open mics around Maryland and D.C.: that's where I'm from. And I haven't stopped since.
When comics are in the room, people have a tendency to try to make them laugh. That doesn't really make you funnier. It makes you a comic's comic, but you aren't going to get a fan base doing that.
I'm a movie fanatic. I watch probably four movies a day - not because I'm a lunatic, but because I just love movies.
Knowing what jokes will work is second nature; you just feel it.
In Hollywood, it's not what you know but who you know.
