I will conclude the string of comedians with Chelsea. I saw her at the first Moontower through a showcase hosted by Dana Gould and I really liked her material. She’s probably the most recognizable I’ve covered this year through her run as a character on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, who had the same name as someone she played on New Girl, I guess it’s the same “universe.” As expected, Chelsea provides voices for video games and cartoons like her compatriots. Currently she is Missy’s mother in Big Mouth, plus appearances on American Dad! Gravity Falls and The Simpsons.
Outside of comedy and acting, Chelsea also writes and performs music which you can find on iTunes or other sources music online, streaming or downloading.
Chelsea’s humor is the traditional observation stuff, at least what I’ve heard, but most stand-up is. Just because Jerry Seinfeld made his fortune through it doesn’t make it awful or unoriginal; people who weren’t that into comedy like us nerds knew this decades ago.
Several years ago, Chelsea and Jordan Peele eloped, then some time later they had a son together. Beaumont. Given his father’s sketch abilities and directing powers and his mother’s singing and comedy, this kid is going to be comedy royalty, possibly another Ben Stiller.
