Josh Blue Biography

Following his groundbreaking win on NBC’s "Last Comic Standing" in 2006, Josh Blue has risen through the ranks to become a well-established headliner at venues throughout the world. In 2018, Blue crushed his set on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." In the same year, he was honored with a performance at the William H. Macy Gala at the prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, Canada. He wrapped up 2018 by recording his fifth hour special at his home club, Comedy Works in Denver, CO. Blue does over 200 shows a year, continuing to spread laughter and break down stereotypes of people with disabilities. His stand-up routine is in a constant state of evolution and his off-the-cuff improvisational skills guarantee that no two shows are alike.

Critics have said Blue is not a cerebral palsy comic; he’s a comic who happens to have cerebral palsy. However, his closest friends describe him as “a d-bag.”

Blue made his television debut on Comedy Central’s "Mind of Mencia." His story has been featured on Fox, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, and CNN. He was the first comedian to perform stand-up on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," was named Best Winning Reality Show Guest on "Live with Regis and Kelly," and made standout appearances on "Comics Unleashed." He has appeared twice on "Ron White’s Comedy Salute to the Troops" on CMT and made his late night television debut on "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson." He became the first comic to premiere a stand-up special on the big screen when 7 More Days in the Tank was shown in movie theaters across the country. It also aired on Bravo Network. Blue starred in "Comedy Central Presents: Josh Blue" in 2011. His third one-hour special, "Sticky Change," aired on Showtime and Netflix. In 2016, Blue released his fourth one-hour special, "DELETE," on HULU and Amazon. Blue dropped a music CD, "Josh Blue and the Hooligan Stew Review," with some original songs. It has been described as “Tom Waits meets the Muppets.”

Blue is a repeat guest on such nationally syndicated radio programs as NPR’s Talk of the Nation, The Mancow Show, and numerous podcasts, including "Getting Doug with High" and "WTF with Mark Maron." He has been featured in numerous print publications including People Magazine and The New York Times. Blue is all over social media, with over 1 million views on his YouTube clips and almost one million followers on Facebook.

Blue represented the United States in 8 countries as a member of the US Paralympic Soccer Team. He and his team were thoroughly disgraced in the 2004 Paralympic Games in Athens, Greece by not scoring a single goal. He is a single father living in Denver, CO with his son, Simon and his daughter, Seika. He also boasts a girlfriend.
