Wanda Sykes

Wanda Sykes (born March 7, 1964 in Portsmouth, Virginia, also known as Wanda Sykes-Hall) is an African-American stand-up comedian known for her sassy personality and blunt observations on current events, the difference between the sexes and races and life in general. Much of her humor comes from her delivery, timing and distinctive voice, a loud, brassy instrument that adds an edge to her humor, as in this observation about white-collar corporate thieves: "You get mugged, you might lose what you got on that DAY. But I ain't never been mugged of my FUTURE."
