Carlos Mencia

At one time considered the heir apparent to Comedy Central's mercurial star Dave Chappelle, comedian Carlos Mencia received his start in stand-up at such famed Los Angeles clubs as The Laugh Factory and The Comedy Store. A growing reputation for his comedic skills led to opportunities like hosting the cable special "Loco Slam" (HBO, 1994) and headlining his own stand-up event "Comedy Central Presents: Carlos Mencia" (Comedy Central, 2002). After filling the void left by Chappelle with his show "Mind of Mencia" (Comedy Central, 2005-08), Mencia suddenly became a ubiquitous presence on the comedy scene. With more specials like "Carlos Mencia: No Strings Attached" (Comedy Central, 2006) and appearances in such feature films as "The Heartbreak Kid" (2007), he was undoubtedly one of the hottest comics in the business.
