About

Luenell is the "Original Bad Girl of Comedy." She may be small in stature, but she more than makes up for it with her big personality, booming voice and infectious laughter. Born in Tollette, Arkansas and raised in Oakland, Calif., Luenell, has been thrilling audiences with her brand of comedy for more than 30 years.."

She is one of the most sought-after and in-demand female comics on the scene. She's currently headlining a residency in Las Vegas at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club, located at the LINQ Promenade on the Vegas strip! Also, look for Luenell's Netflix comedy special, titled, "Town Business," executive produced by .THE. DAVE. CHAPPELLE and directed by THE. STAN LATHAN!

With the touch of a remote control, her body of work in television and film can be found on network and cable television as well as popular streaming services. The 2006 hit mockumentary-styled comedy film "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" was Luenell's breakout role that introduced her to mainstream audiences around the world. Ironically, in the Oscar-nominated film, she portrays a prostitute, named Luenell, with a heart of gold. And in the end -- just like Julia Roberts's character in "Pretty Woman" -- Luenell gets the guy! Currently, Luenell is a part of the cast of the new comedy on Paramount + called CRUTCH, starring Tracy Morgan, which is a spinoff of THE NEIGHBORHOOD on CBS. In addition, look for Luenell as the voice of Milly in the Universal/Dreamwork's family animated hit movie, DOG MAN, one of the top-grossing films in 2025!! Other credits on the big screen include two Eddie Murphy movies - that is, the "Coming 2 America" sequel and "Dolemite Is My Name," "A Star is Born," "Spring Breakdown," "All About Steve," "Think Like a Man," "Think Like a Man Too" and "Taken 2."

On the small screen, Luenell can be seen in "Hacks," "The Last O.G.," "The Middle," "Always Sunny in Philadelphia," "Headcase," "Chocolate News," "The Tony Rock Project" and "Californication" - just to name a few. Plus, Luenell is featured in the docuseries "Phat Tuesdays," on Amazon Prime Video, which celebrates "Phat Tuesdays" at The Comedy Store, the influential comedy showcase that helped launch the careers of some of the most famous Black comedians in the industry today.

Luenell's latest comedy CD, "Luenell Live: I Only Drink at Work," is available on digital platforms everywhere. For more about Luenell, visit www.HeyLuenell.com

  • The Best Show to Date

    by ETB on 4/29/24The Apollo's Historic Theater - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Luenell showed up and Showed out...... this was one of her Best Performances to date. She was on time, she looked Stella and was exceptionally gracious on the mic. Can't wait to see her in Vegas. We Love You Luenell ❤️

    Great comedy show from the opening act to the great Luenell.

  • Luenell at the Apollo Theater/NYC

    by Dissatisfied Customer on 4/29/24The Apollo's Historic Theater - New YorkRating: 2 out of 5

    Unfortunately, I was very dissatisfied and disappointed with the headliner, Luenell. I left before the conclusion of the show because no jokes were being told. What I mostly received was commentary on intimacy with younger men, in conjunction with what appeared to be inebriation. On a positive note, I enjoyed the opening comedian A.G. White, who in my opinion was much funnier than the headliner Luenell. I will never attend another comedy event showcasing Luenell again. Money and time wasted!

    by Laura Ramsey on 4/29/24The Apollo's Historic Theater - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    I am her biggest fan. Her truths are hilarious. She's a real woman of substance. To know she is the first female comedian for the Apollo theater Lunell is a historian. I love and appreciate her. She is the best of the best.

    Luenell is an amazingly funny comedian. I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time. I love her even more now after seeing her live. It was a great evening seeing her at the Apollo Theater. I can't wait to see what she does next!

  • An over hyped on stage tragedy

    by Disappointed in Vegas on 4/23/24Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Las VegasRating: 1 out of 5

    At first, I wasn't planning to leave a review, as they say, "if you can't say anything nice..."But I feel I must warn others: consider spending your money elsewhere. The venue itself is alright—small and cozy. However, the drinks are not good, and there are no restrooms inside; you have to go outside and down the promenade. Despite this, I thought, "That's fine. At least the show will be enjoyable!" The opening act was decent and got the crowd warmed up. I actually enjoyed him! But Luenell... oh, Luenell. There were a few brief funny moments, but overall, she struggled and I found it hard to stay engaged (and awake). Some in our group thought she might've been drunk. I'm far from conservative, but when you're a professional and are entertaining the public, you might only consider drinking if you're a full functioning alcoholic, and not get sloshy just because you think it helps the routine... it doesn't. Everyone has off nights, and maybe this was one for Luenell, but the disappointment is everlasting. I wouldn't spend $400 again (the cost for our small group) on such an experience. I will acknowledge that some in the audience were laughing and having a good time. Perhaps they were also tipsy, or maybe the humor was just not my taste, appealing more to those who think a rubber chicken routine is comedy gold amusing. Overall, while the venue had potential and the opening act was enjoyable, Luenell's performance fell short of expectations and left much to be desired. We won't be returning for another show.

  • No restroom in venue

    by Littles on 4/22/24Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Las VegasRating: 2 out of 5

    The venue sold drinks and food, but had no restroom inside of venue. Mind you the show was upstairs you had to go doors down to find a restroom with only 2 stalls. Will not return to it!

  • Luenell is naturally funny Awesome show!

    by Masada M.E. on 4/11/24Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Las VegasRating: 5 out of 5

    Awesome crowd work engagement, naturally funny and confident. Was a good show and appreciated the Q&A with the crowd

  • Excellent show she is fantastic

    by Comedy Lover on 4/10/24Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Las VegasRating: 5 out of 5

    Starting off with the positive: Luenell Is a superb entertainer and it was a joy to see her up-close in an intimate venue (Jimmy Kimmel comedy club on the Linq promenade). Luenell’s freeform style of comedy and story telling Is wildly entertaining, and the constant laughter in the house made this a wonderful annd energizing experience. Her style also ensures that each audience has a unique experience so you could enjoy the show more than once! The opening act was also great and not too long. The opening performer left us wanting more. The food and drink prices were surprisingly not crazy by Vegas standards. Absolutely recommend the show. There were a few negatives, including: waiting a long time in a very long line standing on the street prior to the performance. In my opinion, it is a must to pay a few extra dollars for reserved seats in the front section. The rest of the theater is general admission and cramped. Due to the room’s odd shape, some seats can be very far back impeding the view. As I mentioned, the food quality and drink prices were Better than expected, however, they need to triple the number of servers for a sold out crowd.

  • The Queen of realness!

    by TM on 4/4/24Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club - Las VegasRating: 5 out of 5

    I absolutely loved seeing Luenell in person! She is so funny and down-to-earth. I would most definitely go see her again and again. I could not stop laughing. They only thing that was of concern, was the venue. I felt sorry for the staff having to run up and down the stairs. The bathrooms were in a different area of the venue which was a little odd. It was a stunning show. Thank you Luenell! 😁

    I needed a good laugh. Luenell is a veteran in this industry and did not disappointment. Her show feels like you have your favorite funny relative over for dinner. I didnt want the show to end. I could have hung out with her all night! Jimmy Kimmel did right by giving Lue this residency! This is a must see show!
