Dane Cook Blowin Up!

So one of my favorite comics that i have followed for about 6 years is finally becoming the huge success my friends and I knew he would. We would watch all his specials and drive to see his stand up acts in different cities, and suddenly hes blowns up and becoming the rock star of the comic world. The only comic to hit number 3 on the billboard charts for best selling album.
Alot of directors and producers are starting to take notice of his enormous and rising fame and want to cash in on his popularity. Talk show hosts are scrambling to have him as a guest, sit com producers want to put him in a new show, and movie directors are desperately trying to throw him into any crappy script they can find (Hence the new movie Employee of the Month him starring Jessica Simpson). Even Saturday Night Live who once asked him to become a cast member knocked at his door once again to host the show for the second time in less than a year. All of this hype is reminiscent of other comedians who started small and now are household names, like Ellen Degeneris, whos stand up career made her so big she is recognizable even by only her first name, and Jim Carrey, who went from funny, physical comedian to serious actor who rercieves critical acclaim for his films now. In another 5 years or so, who knows where Dane Cook will be, maybe hosting his own talk show, maybe starring in or directing the next Hollywood Oscar winning movie, or maybe still starring in crappy movies because they give him a paycheck. For anyone that has never heard of Dane Cook check some of his stand up at www.danecook.com under the videos section.
