Trenton, New Jersey native, Sommore, is known in the stand-up world as the “Undisputed Queen of Comedy.” If you’ve ever seen her perform, you know why. She’s appeared on HBO’s Def Comedy Jam, Showtime at the Apollo, Comic View and more.

She has some acting chops as well. She’s appeared on tv sitcoms like The Hughleys and The Parkers and had roles in the movies, Soul Plane, A Miami Tail, Friday After Next and Something New.

As a part of The Queens of Comedy tour, she trotted the globe with fellow female comedians, Mo’Nique, Laura Hayes and Adele Givens. The show was filmed for a special on Showtime and was released to DVD.

Sommore had yet another Showtime special, “Chandelier Status” that aired last week. She called in to my afternoon show to talk about it.
