Since winning Season 4 of NBC’s Last Comic Standing, Josh Blue has emerged as one of the hottest comedians in the country, performing to wildly appreciative sold-out crowds on a non-stop cross-country tour.
 
JOSH BLUE has been a fast-rising star since first appearing on Comedy Central MIND OF MENCIA before gaining the attention and endearment of the country as a favorite and eventual overall winner on NBC LAST COMIC STANDING. Josh is a diverse and triumphant individual – hilarious stand-up comedian, stand-out guest star on television, talented artist, and stellar U.S. PARALYMPIC SOCCER player refusing to bow to any of the challenges that come from living with Cerebral Palsy. 
 
Josh uses his incredible sense of humor and likeability to defy stereotypes and encourage others to overcome their preconceived notions about people who are considered disabled. His unique brand of everse teasing affords him the great joy of bumbling condescending people.
 
Josh’s stand-out performances at the 2004 Las Vegas Comedy Festival earned him $10,000 as Grand Prize Winner of the Royal Flush Comedy Competition. In 2006 Josh became the first stand-up comedian to perform on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, an incredible honor, especially considering what a fan he is.  He also received a Relly Award for Best Winning Reality Show Guest on Live with Regis and Kelley.  From comedy clubs and theatre engagements to college campuses and corporate events, wherever he takes the stage, Josh elicits an overwhelming crowd response.  His uncanny ability to improvise with any audience coupled with comedic timing rarely found in a performer of his age has enabled him to rapidly develop a loyal fan base across the country.  His rise is perhaps best described by a club owner following a recent show when he exclaimed:
“Josh is rolling like a ROCK STAR!”
