It all started one night
when he visited a comedy club in Los Angeles. A
comedian tried picking on Gilbert who was seated in
the front...bad move. After receiving a taste of his
own medicine, the comedian backed off and Gilbert
was invited on stage to tell a joke and stole the
show. He was asked back the following week--silly
Gil caught the comedy bug and the rest is history.
Gilbert won his first comedy competition just one
year into his stand-up career at the world famous
Ice House in Pasadena, Ca. and has been seen on many
television shows that include Que Locos and was one
of the first Latino Semi-finalists on BET's
ComicView.
His comedy influences are, Freddy Prinze, Paul
Rodriguez and Richard Pryor.
Gilbert is committed to being a positive role model
for kids caught in inner-city violence. He uses his
comedy to reach out and educate teens about life's
different options. Through his work in comedy clubs
and on television, Gilbert will continue to be a
positive role model on our youth.
Gil's CD is packed
with the funniest string of Mexican jokes you'll
ever hear. Just as Foxworthy knows his Rednecks, Gil
knows his Mexicans! You have to hear this CD to
believe how good it is. And you'll be using his
jokes for years!
