Have you seen this comedian dude Aziz Ansari anywhere yet?  You should have.  Back in ’05, Rolling Stone put him on their HOT LIST as the “hot comedian”.  He was on the MTV skit show Human Giant.  Kanye West featured Ansari on his blog last year, and continues too praise his work (Ansari’s comedy tour poster was a goof on West’s Glow in the Dark Tour ads).  He’s popped up in a bunch of recent movies like I Love You, Man and Observe and Report, and is also on the new NBC show Parks and Recreation (which I haven’t seen yet but really want to check out since I worked for the WP Recreation Department throughout my entire teenage experience).  And now, he’s playing a stand up comedian named Raaaaaaaandy in the upcoming Judd Apatow flick Funny People, which Westcheddar has been talking about alot in the past month.  Check out Aziz Ansari’s recent interview with Jimmy Kimmel to get a feel for his style and a little background on Raaaaaaaandy, and then below that watch him test out his Raaaaaaaaandy character on stage at Comix comedy club in NYC.  This dude is mad funny!

LOL right?  And did you know he’s friends with our boy Nick Kroll?  They’ve toured together, and shared the screen in I Love You, Man too.  If you missed our interview with Nick, check it out below, along with Aziz Ansari’s website.  Hollerrrrrrrrrrrr.
