‘America’s Got Talent’ Jackie Fabulous brings comedy to Sondheim Tuesday

'Thank God for you.”

Those were the words Simon Cowell stated following comedian Jackie Fabulous's performance on 'America's Got Talent Season 14” auditions episode.

'Just when you think the world has lost its sense of humor, on you come. Hallelujah.”

Jackie Fabulous won the judges over with her personal stories and great energy, even earning a surprise kiss from Simon Cowell.

'As America's Got Talent” continues, Jackie Fabulous is favored to be the first stand-up comedian to win the $1 million prize package.

She brings her laugh-out-loud riot routine, 'Jackie Fabulous Who is She?,” to the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center's Stephen Sondheim Center for the Performing Arts at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Jackie Fabulous, a native New Yorker from The Bronx, moved to California 15 years ago to get a law degree and a husband. After successfully earning her Jurist Doctorate and eloping in Vegas, Jackie learned she was better suited to play a lawyer on television and that standup comedy was the actual love her life.

Divorced and ready to party, Jackie Fabulous realized her destiny was to become a multifaceted performer that is at her best when she's riding waves of laughter by connecting with all races, genders, and social economic classes on a very personal level. She had many compelling reasons to move back to The Bronx after getting her degree and failing at marriage, but the financial hardship of being a struggling artist and her younger sister becoming the victim of a crime relegating her to a wheelchair for life only motivated Jackie to fulfill a completely different calling that came to her in her 30's after four years of law school.

Having survived her fair share of loves, tragedies, lessons and embarrassing moments, Jackie channels all of that energy into hilarious sets and inspiring keynotes. More than just a funny lady, she is on a mission to inspire and empower women all over the world to find the funny in their flaws.

'As the guy who discovered Jon Stewart, Ray Romano and a bunch of other star comics I have a sense of who has ‘it.' Jackie Fabulous has it. I'd watch her do just about anything legal,” said Billy Grundfest, founder of New York's 'Comedy Cellar.”

When Jackie is not on tour, she gives keynote speeches and breakout sessions at corporate events and conferences. A lawyer in her past life, she understands the plight of the working woman. Her diverse style of comedy has allowed her to work with comedy legends like Roseanne Barr and Wanda Sykes and on the OWN Network, NBC, CBS and FOX to name a few.

Tickets for the 'Jackie Fabulous Who Is She?” tour are $15 and available at the Sondheim ticket office, 472-2787 and www.FairfieldACC.com.
