Who Got His Big Break By Becoming The First Grand Champion In The Comedy Category On “Star Search”?
If you’re looking to break into the comedy industry, it might be worth your while to pay attention to those who’ve already been there and done that. Steve Harvey won the very first grand championship in the Star Search Comedy category, beating out comedians like Sinbad and Alonzo Bodden to do so—and he went on to become one of the biggest names in stand-up comedy today. If you want to follow in his footsteps and become a grand champion yourself, this article will give you some tips on how to achieve your dreams of making people laugh professionally!
The history of star search
Star search was a show that aired from 1983-to 1993, and it was one of several TV talent competitions. Participants would go through rounds until a winner was crowned grand champion at the season’s end. While star search has been off the air for over two decades, many people who appeared on its series still have careers today. But there is one question that remains: Who won the star search overall?
The comedian who became a star
Donnie Wahlberg was a construction worker before winning Star Search and getting his big break. He went on to be a member of one of music’s most successful bands, New Kids On The Block.
How did he become so successful with star search?
He decided not to be a part of any category other than comedy. He didn’t want people to think he was trying to play more than one role and be known as more than one character. He made sure that his act was polished and ready so he could win it all.
Why are people still watching star search now?
In order to answer that question, you need to understand why people were still watching it then. To a certain generation (the Boomers), they were either star-struck by celebrities or wanted to be one themselves. By watching a competition between entertainers (singers, dancers, comedians, and other types of entertainers), they would get a glimpse into what was it like to perform on stage. The broadcasts also featured mini-concerts performed by artists.
Conclusion
Steve Harvey is an American comedian, television host, radio personality, actor, and author. Steve got his start in stand-up comedy when he performed at a local nightclub that had a weekly talent show as part of its weekend entertainment. After winning several amateur comedy competitions and while working as a bartender, Harvey was discovered by radio host Tom Joyner who would go on to hire him as co-host of his morning show.
