Dante Will Be Burning Them Up On NBC!
This entry was posted on June 12, 2007 5:09 PM and is filed under Family.
My California cousin; Dante, will be a contestant on "The Last Comic Standing." The show/contest airs Wednesday night, June 13th on NBC and runs through September. Hopefully he'll be on the show through September! Please watch for him, and when it is time to phone in your vote, please vote for him.
The kid is hilarious (any relative younger than me is a "kid,") and he's not a rookie, ... he is a seasoned comic veteran with volumes of credentials. Usually, there is always one funny-guy in a family, but being from a large Italian family, we all think we're funny, however, ... we all bow to Dante.
I love his name ... Dante, ... like Elvis, Madonna or Prince, with one name, he'll be easy to find on the show.
His Mom and Dad, my cousins Dick and Jo Ann Rusciolelli (now you know why he goes by one name only! lol), are jacked-up for "The Last Comic Standing." While pregnant with Dante, his folks won a lot of "cash and fantabulos prizes" on Gambit with Wink Martindale! You might say he inherited the showbiz bug from them!
SIDEBAR: I actually see them every once in a while on "Gambit" reruns on the Game Show Network, I never realized they were ever that young!
All jokes aside, Dante has a REAL chance of being in the "Top Five" and I personally think he's gonna win it all! NO JOKE!
Some important facts about Dante;
I am very proud to say my cousin is a patriot. He has served his country, lifting the morale of America's Best, entertaining our troops on USO shows all over the world! Ooo Rah!
My cousin was the first "white" comic on BET, (Black Entertainment Television) which means he's got soul! (Can I get an Amen!) He won the "Richard Pryor Award" among other prestigious awards, ... in fact, he's won more awards than any other person, in history, on The B.E.T. Comedy Awards!!!!! (I swear to you, he's white!)
A few years ago he won $10,000.00 on America's Funniest Videos.
Dante is a regular at the Comedy Store and The Laugh Factory in LA to name a few.
I can go on and on and brag all day long about this hilarious kid, but why don't you check him out for yourself at www.dantecomic.com
And remember, ... PLEASE vote for Dante on "The Last Comic Standing" on NBC, Wednesday evenings.
A vote is a terrible thing to waste! I'll keep you posted as to how he's doing.
