UNCONVENTIONALLY ARAB | Saad Alessa | Stand-Up Comedy Special
Рет қаралды 83,678
4 жыл бұрынBack in December 2019, I was given the opportunity to perform in my very own hometown Kuwait City. Where I was expected to do a clean 15 min. set without any jokes about sex, religion or politics. Although I have much respect to my native culture, I'm also Unconventionally Arab.
Huge thank you to my friends & family and to everyone that came out to the show, or showed support in any way!

This was awesome!! So glad I came across your stand up. These are some brilliant, hilarious jokes! And I'm so glad your mother was there, and you were in your hometown. Thanks for speaking up for all of us Arab-American-Muslim-Generally-Lost people. I was cracking up.

That was very brave of you to do this in Kuwait .. I love how the girls are still shy and was covering their faces while laughing. I don't usually find sex jokes funny, you had some good ones though, and I think it was funnier in Kuwait because sex is a taboo, but I would like to hear more jokes from you that are not about sex or Arabs.

I love my country for doing all the that. U are trying to be more open like any country. Will think again. Kuwait will always be against those things. I can see from people’s face that some of your topics that they can’t relate to or they are forcing their selves to laugh. U should always write ur stuff to suit the audience type which u should study well what or people here in Kuwait like. US audience is not like Kuwaiti audience.

I'm an avar from Caucasus and didn't like such portrayal of Morocco. If anyone from Arabia would insult us - they will be double times circumcised...if not triple 🤨
@mounirgammer995 3 жыл бұрын
there are many Arab comedians but this is the worse . starting with the cringe to the extreme racism about us the Arabs , u want to make a joke about the Arabs, ur people, ok go ahead but the point of it is not hamulate them and that is what makes u no different from the racist Americans . you need to show pride from where u are and not give the people that don't know us a reason to hate us . by the way ur jokes are realy bad , like beginners bad comedy . be original . make ur own jokes.
