COCOA BROWN is undeniably one of the most talented performers of this era. The Newport News, Virginia native, born Farah Brown, assails her craft with such passion and soul searching veracity, when she claims the stage the ensuing act is nothing short of a force of nature. COCOA BROWN audaciously draws from painful reminiscences and hard-knocked lessons, bravely weaving humorous tales that uplift, upend and upgrade everything you thought you knew about comedy. What drives the comic that female fans nationwide have nicknamed "The Truth"? The sheer will of a woman who has survived the worst life had to offer and is still standing. COCOA can currently be seen in the comedy documentary, "Dying Laughing", which is currently on NetFlix,, alongside Jamie Foxx, Amy Schumer, Kevin Hart and Jerry Seinfeld, to name a few. Cocoa Brown headlined the successful "Shaquille O'Neal: All-Star Comedy Jam", on Showtime. A starring role in the hugely successful and critically acclaimed "American Crime Story: People v. OJ Simpson", which aired on the FX Network; a recurring role on TV Land's "Soul Man" with Cedric "The Entertainer" and Neicy Nash and starring as fan favorite "Jennifer" for six (6) seasons on #1 rated "Tyler Perry's For Better or Worse" for the past six (6) seasons on The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). COCOA BROWN has amassed an extensive body of work, including co-starring in last summer's blockbuster "Ted 2", alongside Seth MacFarlane and Mark Wahlburg, working alongside Samuel L. Jackson in "Lakeview Terrace" and her starring role in "Tyler Perry's Single Mom's Club". COCOA BROWN recurred as co-host on the ABC Daytime talk show "FABLife" and has been a guest on all three (3) seasons of the hit daytime talk, "The Real". COCOA BROWN has released her comedy CD "One Funny Momma", which is available on iTunes. With a Screen Actor's Guild Award nomination under her belt, COCOA BROWN aspires for an Oscar, an Emmy Award and a Pulitzer Prize. The lovable and down-to- earth celebrity and proud single mother to her pre-school aged son, Phoenix, keeps television audiences tuning in for an intoxicating dose of "Cocoa-infused" humor. She captivated arena audiences across the country as part of the "Mike Epps & Friends" comedy tour. Her creative writing and meticulously produced sets couple with the ever-changing hairstyles and gutsy sense of fashion ignites rousing, protracted standing ovations. Yet, amid such explosive success, Brown admits she desires very little. COCOA BROWN says, "I want audiences to connect with my story and in the course of that journey find their own. That's my inspiration, my peace. I am in a good place now. I am finally learning how to love myself and I am comfortable in my own skin. Most importantly, I am not afraid to use my voice." That is certainly a good thing. That beautiful, husky, unapologetic and very funny voice will no doubt, change the world.
