I, along with many, viewed her Nail Salon joke on YouTube and was hooked. She's funny, relatable, and entertaining. Her book did not disappoint. I consider it an autobiography with a lot of humor thrown in. She has led quite a life, at one point she was a Raiderette! Coming from almost nothing, to where she is today was difficult for her. I enjoyed reading about her passion, life changes, and her successes. If you want to laugh while reading a biography about, then this one is for you. ( ) Who Do I Think I Am?: Stories of Chola Wishes and Caviar Dreams I Picked Up This Book Because: I enjoy this author's work in comedy. Media Type: Audiobook Source: BC Public Library Dates Read: 3/3/23 - 3/6/23 Stars: 4 Narrator(s): Anjelah Johnson-Reyes The Story: I had no idea Anjelah was so religious. That was very eye opening in this book. (not in any good/bad or judgemental way) This was so open. I think we discussed all aspects of her life and I really enjoyed learning so much about her life. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

This hilarious and thoughtful memoir from comedy legend Anjelah Johnson-Reyes explores questions of identity, belonging, and her two dreams as a kid: to be an actress and to be a chola. You may know Anjelah Johnson-Reyes for her viral sketch "Nail Salon" (over 100 million views globally) or her beloved MadTV character Bon Qui Qui, but it's her clean humor and hilarious storytelling that make her one of the most successful stand-up comedians and actresses today. With her razor-sharp wit, Anjelah recounts funny stories from her journey--from growing up caught between two worlds (do chips and salsa go with potato salad?) to unexpectedly embracing faith ("I love Jesus, but I will punch a 'ho") to her many adventures in dating (she may or may not have accepted dates simply for the food). Through it all, Anjelah transforms from a suburban-adjacent kid with Aquanet-drenched hair into a devoted Christian who abstains from drinking and premarital sex, into a mall-famous Oakland Raiders cheerleader, and then an actually famous comedian traveling the world and meeting people from all-walks of life, including Oprah. No biggie. (Huge biggie.) As she travels the world, Anjelah has eye-opening experiences, and she morphs from square, rigid Anjelah into "Funjelah," and learns that she can still ride with Jesus without squashing the other parts of her personality. Anjelah's stories explore subjects such as navigating your racial identity, finding your place in the world, chasing your crazy dreams, embracing the messiness of an evolving faith, and searching for belonging and meaning. Through her journey, Anjelah gets closer to discovering her true identity and encourages readers to have the audacity to dream big. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
