“I’m Not Fat I’m Fluffy”

Written by: Julie on 29 April 2009 | 16 Comments |

One of the great comedic minds of today is none other than the incredibly funny Gabriel Iglesias. From his witty, refreshing sense of humor to his dead-on impressions and voices, Gabriel Iglesias is a force to be reckoned with. In a good-natured way, he pokes fun at his own weight and it is obvious he is completely comfortable with his body image, even going by the nickname “Fluffy”. In addition, he has a website simply called www.hotandfluffy.com. This brilliant man has made a career out of mocking the Latino community, of which he is a proud member.

In his latest comedy routine he talks proudly about his 10 year old step-son and it is obvious to anyone who listens to him that he is a wonderfully funny and supportive step-father.

With such witty quips as “I’m not fat, I’m fluffy,” and “I drink Diet Coke so I can eat regular cake,” Iglesias shows us all that it is ok to be comfortable with a body that society and the media would most likely consider obese. The negative connotation usually associated with this word is completely absent in Iglesias’s attitude and comedy routines. It is refreshing to see someone with so much self confidence and humor to share with the world. With his irrepressible zest for life, which is obvious if you take the time to listen to any of his many brilliant comedy routines, he is a breath of fresh air in an ever changing and increasingly harsh world.

Anyone doubting the popularity of Gabriel Iglesias should take a look at his MySpace page. There are literally thousands of fans on his friends list and he gets a great many comments from fans on his page thanking him for the add as a friend, or congratulating him for another kick ass show, or even excitedly telling him that they will be seeing him soon. And he treats everyone of his fans like they are friends he knows personally. He makes everyone feel welcome on his page and posts bulletins advertising his gigs and encouraging his fans to come see him perform. He thanks the fans for watching his comedy specials and attending his shows all over the United States.

I have yet to be able to see Gabriel Iglesias perform in person, but I know that when I do it will be an incredible performance from an incredibly brilliant and funny man. If only the world had more comedians as refreshing and wonderful as Iglesias, maybe, just maybe, the world would be a happier place.

So here’s to you Gabriel Iglesias. Thanks for all the laughs and please keep them coming.

    I first heard him on a comedy radio station. After seeing him on his Comedy Central special. I laughed from start to finish. Refreshing humor. I have to say I’m a fan.
