First time I was on stage was actually an accident. I had DM'd a comedian in Dubai
00:04
to get five minutes of his time just to understand what the scene looks like and
00:07
how to just get involved with it and he has said come we'll give you
00:11
five at this place in JBR at the time.
00:18
But the first time I recognized that I wanted to do comedy and first time I
00:22
realized that there was something I liked and maybe started to get better at
00:25
was when I was a kid there's this show that always used to be in the background of
00:28
the house which is called Mind Your Language which had like the whole cast
00:31
was people from different countries and they had different accents and my mom
00:34
who at the time was working two jobs came home like really late typical upset
00:38
mom's the type of woman that smiles like this and she was in the kitchen and I
00:43
remember I recited something from the from the show and she didn't laugh but
00:47
she she like turned to me and she just her face cracked a little bit she just
00:52
smiled and I realized if I can make my mom smile I can make anyone laugh.
00:56
The first live show I ever watched was Trevor Noah in 2014 Firsts to Come is
01:01
actually the entire like my entire life is just beginning now so I've been doing
01:07
accents for a long time but the first character I ever came up with was Darwin
01:11
who's my kuya he's the Bill Peet's guy and there was a video I can't do it now
01:16
I'm in the accent I cannot go out so we're here together there was a
01:19
restaurant called Saudi Kitchen for VIP persons and so I did the video saying
01:25
that you know this is how the kitchen for VIP people and I was their door
01:29
greeter for like five minutes and not actually but in the character so that
01:33
was the first one I did that is Darwin.
01:38
I think the first person to make me belly laugh and like wheeze from my
01:43
lungs was my sister she had been like tickling me like crazy and I thought I
01:48
was gonna die I was a kid at the time and I was you know when you're laughing
01:52
so hard you literally think you're gonna die and I was like begging her to stop
01:55
and she didn't so I was like she's trying to kill me so I hid her hand away
01:58
and then she was chasing me and she had hit her head on the door trying to
02:01
follow me and she fell on the floor and I was laughing because she had already
02:03
tickled me and then watching her fall on the floor also made me laugh.
02:06
My first Breitling collaboration it was really funny I had I had dressed up as
02:10
you know in full full Breitling attire and I had come and I was trying to sell
02:15
the watch as Egyptian Baba is my character and I was selling the Ivingor
02:18
first Breitling watch is this Chronomat it was my first and I had bought a
02:24
second one with the Ivingor because I loved what I sold I bought myself.
02:29
It's a very good watch.
