Club Shay Shay - Damon Wayans Part 1

In the latest episode of Club Shay Shay, Shannon Sharpe sits down with the legendary Damon Wayans, a true comedic icon and Hollywood heavyweight. Damon opens up about his extraordinary upbringing in a large, tight-knit family, revealing the tough love, financial struggles, and sibling dynamics that shaped his path to stardom. From his rebellious school days to his first foray into stand-up comedy, Damon shares raw and hilarious stories about his life before fame, including his experiences with family discipline, navigating school with a clubfoot, and his early run-ins with comedy as therapy.

Damon dives deep into his career, reflecting on his time with In Living Color, the birth of his iconic character “Homie the Clown,” and his battles with the entertainment industry, including his brief stint on SNL and the challenges of working on toxic sets. He also shares a hilarious encounter with boxing legend Mike Tyson, who once tried to beat him and his brother Keenen up for making fun of him during a comedy bit.

He also opens up about the complexities of fame, family, and money, offering his thoughts on relationships with friends, financial success, and the struggles of cancel culture. Damon shares his admiration for Eddie Murphy, recalling how Murphy's trailblazing comedy career inspired him, while also addressing the complex relationship between Black comedians and their freedom to express themselves on stage, including the controversial topic of cross-dressing.
