Best comedian stars part2 Bill Bailey Comedian Won’t You Come Home? Ever heard the song “Won’t You Come Home Bill Bailey?”? Who is Bill Bailey? Perhaps another fictional character?

– Yes, but not until a history teacher in King Edward’s School sang the wartime song in Mark “Bill” Bailey’s childhood.

Since then Mark Bailey has become “Bill Bailey” – comedian, actor, and musician, and who also claims to be good at sports. But that was the kid Bill Bailey. Let’s see if he had changed just a little.

Bill Bailey comedian is an Englishman by birth; he was born in Bath, England in 1964. His love for humor was honed early in his homeland however his early stand-up career didn’t begin until he accidentally wandered into a John Hegley show.

That’s when he wanted to take being stand-up comedian as a career, among his many mythologized job succession, and taking along the name Bill Bailey, Comedian he toured the US.

Bill Bailey Comedian toured with other comedians, Mark Lamarr and Phill Jupitus. In 1989 he formed a double stand-up act calling it the Rubber Bishops with Martin Stubbs, where Bill developed his unique style – a mix of his musical parodies with traditional jokes deconstructions.

In 1994 he performed at the Edinburgh Fringe with Sean Lock for the show Rock which is about an ageing rock star and his roadie. The show was later serialized for the Mark Radcliffe Show on BBS Radio 1 but audience attendance remained low.

Bill Bailey Comedian almost gave up. But one year later (while starting a punk rock band “Beergut 100”), Bill took the shot at becoming a solo act. He succeeded. He put his first pebble in his career milestone as Bill Bailey-Comedian. Bill Bailey’s Cosmic Jam became a hit.

It led to a recording at the Bloomsbury Theater in London and was broadcasted another year later on Channel 4 as Bill Bailey Live.

(In 2005 it was finally released in its DVD uncut version.) In 1996 he came home to Edinburgh after he won a Time Out award only to receive more.

He received a Perrier Comedy Award nomination for a critically acclaimed show where he took his Cosmic Jam charm of tying together classical comic music and post-modern gags combined with a whimsical rambling style.

And all just rolled along – “Is It Bill Bailey,” “Black Books,” “QI: Quite Interesting”, “Bewilderness,” “Part Troll,” and “Never Mind the Buzzocks”.

He’s still into his self-claims – a “confused hippie” and “part troll”. He will be appearing in the 2007 film Hot Fuzz and will be returning to America for his next tour before Edinburgh Fringe.

Generations of laughter – famous comedians

Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby, Peter Cook, Eric Morecambe, Robin Williams, Peter Kay, Tommy Cooper, Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, and Peter Sellers – they are all famous comedians of the 20th century.

Apart from being 10 of the most famous comedians that ever lived, there is one thing common to them – they can make any generation laugh.

The veterans, as they are referred to by comical enthusiasts, this selection of most famous comedians features the comical legends of all time.

Richard Pryor’s demise in December 2006 might have caused thousands to grieve, but his jokes and acts are etched on people’s minds.

Pryor’s trademark was his use of vulgarities, racial epithets, and made audiences laugh with his language that described a truly seasoned comedian.

The Bill Cosby Show would not be named after this entertainer if not for his craft in comedy. The said show was a huge success in the 1980’s, which made him one of the highest paid entertainers in this decade.

Bill Cosby has won several Grammy awards for his comedy albums, not to mention receiving awards annually from 1965-1970 and once more in 1987.

Next on the list of famous comedians is the English Peter Cook, who was a writer, comedian and famous for his satires. He’s well recognized as the father of the British satire boom that started in the 1960’s.

Eric Morecambe, one of the famous comedians, was born Eric John Bartholomew. He’s revered as UK’s “comic genius”. Eric performed with a double act named Ernie Wise. They made their name on the radio, prior to landing on television in 1955, and appeared in many series including “Two of a Kind”.

The famous comedian behind Popeye and Mrs. Doubtfire, Robin Williams is natural in improvisation comedy.

A multi-awarded actor/comedian,

his first appearance on the limelight was as a stand-up comedian doing routines in San Francisco. Robin got the highest spot after being voted by fellow comedians in the Top 50 comedy acts ever in 2005.

Tommy Cooper is considered among the most inventive and funny comedians next to Charlie Chaplin. This British actor’s trademark is magic tricks to fail.

Despite this, he was actually adept in magic and member of the Magic Circle. His last act was in 1984 when he collapsed in front of his audience who thought it was part of his act.

Lenny Bruce was a celebrated British stand-up comedian who turned the stand up comedy into a real form of entertainment. He was a popular satirist of the 1950’s and 60’s.

Following in the footsteps of one of the famous comedians Lenny was George Carlin, a comedian who made leaps in cultural boundaries. He started in stand-up comedy in the 1960’s after doing radio. He was hailed to the Comedy Hall of Fame in November of 1994.

Richard Henry Sellers was one of the celebrated British famous comedians, who starred in “The Goon Show”, a BBC radio show that ran from 1951-1960.

Director Blake Edwards awarded him the description the “mercurial clown” for being able to turn comedy into drama and vice versa, instantly.

Care for a laugh? – American comedians

It’s easier to make people cry than do otherwise. Charlie Chaplin once said he always liked walking in the rain because no one will notice him crying.

He was the highest paid actor, and possibly person, in the world in 1916 earning $10,000 a week. These featured comedians all had their share of rocky days prior to being one of the top American comedians of all time.

Charlie Chaplain was and is perhaps the greatest comedian who ever lived. He was born in 1889 to a small-time actress, his mother, who was in and out of the mental hospital.

He quit school at 10 and worked as a mime on the British vaudeville circuit. The poverty he suffered in his early years inspired him the Tramp’s costume.

Who could forget the hilarious American comedians Three Stooges who made any generation laugh with their brand of slapstick comedy?

The Howard brothers, Moe, Jerome (Curly) and Shemp were raised in a small Jewish community in Brooklyn’s outskirts.

The siblings got into showbiz with the help of Ted Healy – Moe’s friend, in 1922. In 1934, after breaking up with Healy due to the latter’s alcoholism, they signed up to star in Columbia Pictures two-reel comedy short subjects that earned them only a few dollars per week.

Twenty-first century American comedians include Jim Carrey, who reached stardom with his movie The Mask. This Canadian who was born on January 17, 1962 in Newmarket, Ontario, is a natural comedian being the class clown at Aldershot in Burlington.

Jim realized at a young age that he had a talent in making faces. Jim’s family became homeless when his accountant father was fired and replaced by a younger man.

Jim and his two other siblings earned a living by cleaning in the factory that his father previously worked in. Jim and his brother John cleaned the first floor, waxing, polishing, dusting, and cleaning toilets.

Tim Allen, born as Tim Allan Dick in 1953, may well be considered one of the funniest American comedians whose movies never fail to attract fans and people who simply want to laugh. And yes, you guessed it.

Tim was also the class clown. After getting his Bachelor of Science degree, in 1979 he first appeared as a stand-up comedian at Detroit’s Comedy Castle. His last name Dick was removed after landing on a stint in a local talk show.
