Dat Phan

Dat Phan (born January 25, 1975) is a Vietnamese American stand-up comedian.

Early life

When he was a child, he, his mother, and nine of his siblings emigrated from South Vietnam to the United States. They suffered financial hardships throughout his childhood. He grew up in the City Heights neighborhood of San Diego, California, then spent his teenage years in Santee, California, a suburb of San Diego. Phan was voted most successful of his class at his West Hills High School ten-year reunion, and was voted into Grossmont College's Walk of Fame.

Career

In 2003, he entered the first season of NBC's stand-up comedy competition reality show, Last Comic Standing. He was picked on by the other contestants due to his relative youth in the comedy world. Nonetheless, Phan was the surprise winner of Last Comic Standing, and subsequently has made cameo appearances in Hollywood films such as Cellular and Love Is the Drug. He currently resides in Los Angeles, California.

Dat Phan Productions released the DVD Dat Phan: Live and the CD You Touch, You Buy, in stores January 2010, and began pre-production on a movie titled Yellow Fever. He has endorsed the Jade Ribbon Campaign established to fight against hepatitis B and liver cancer.

Jay Leno

James Douglas Muir "Jay" Leno (/ˈlɛnoʊ/; born April 28, 1950) is an American comedian, actor, writer, producer, voice actor, and television host. He was the host of NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno from 1992 to 2009. Beginning in September 2009, Leno started a primetime talk show, titled The Jay Leno Show, which aired weeknights at 10:00 p.m. ET, also on NBC.

After The Jay Leno Show was canceled in January 2010 amid a host controversy, Leno returned to host The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on March 1, 2010. He hosted his last episode of The Tonight Show on February 6, 2014. That year, he was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame.

Early life

Leno was born in New Rochelle, New York. His homemaker mother, Catherine (née Muir; 1911–1993), was born in Greenock, Scotland, and came to the United States at age 11. His father, Angelo (1910–1994), was an insurance salesman who was born in New York, to immigrants from Flumeri, Italy. Leno grew up in Andover, Massachusetts, and obtained a bachelor's degree in speech therapy from Emerson College, where he started a comedy club in 1973. His older brother, Patrick (May 12, 1940 – October 6, 2002), was a Vietnam War veteran who worked as an attorney.

Dead Heaven

Thought I was asleep
Lost to dreams
I was dying in a big machine
Didn't think the voice that called me
Could be real.
Thought I woke up
Lost my faith
I was staring at the face of rage
Didn't think I'd see the demon in ";His"; heart.
Thought I saw blood
Turn to wine
A vision from the angel wars
Didn't think I'd find the saviour in the dark.
Thought I saw a light
Tear the storm
Showing me the way to God
Didn't know that Heaven died and went to Hell.
Blessed is dead Heaven
Blessed are shadows and pain
Blessed is dead Heaven
Blessed is death in ";His"; name
Thought I saw rain
Black and cold
Falling on a child's grave
Thought I saw an angel laugh and piss on it.
Thought I saw a dance
Strange and cruel
Swaying to the screams of men
Thought I saw the Lord's disciples laugh at that.
Thought I saw love
Sacrificed
Mary under three wise men
Thought I saw the Virgin look at me and cry.
Thought I saw a cross
And Jesus dead
Burning in the midnight sky
Thought I saw God dancing in the flames.
Glory is dead Heaven
Glory is shadows and pain
Glory is dead Heaven
Glory is death in ";His"; name
";Do you confess?";
";Cleanse your sin";
";Do you believe in the word of God?";
Welcome to dead Heaven
Welcome to shadows and pain
Welcome to dead Heaven
Welcome to death in ";His"; name
