GET FAMILIAR : YVONNE ORJI


We’ve all heard of the phrase “Triple Threat” used heavily in show business. Well, I would like to introduce to you the “Quadruple Threat”: talented comedienne, actress, writer and entrepreneur, Yvonne Orji.

Whether it’s writing for TV One’s show Love That Girl starring Tatyana Ali, serving as an NYC Entertainment Correspondent for Black Star News, starring in the internationally acclaimed stage adaptation of Chinua Achebe's classic novel, "Things Fall Apart," or showing off her comedy skills alongside funny men Damon Wayans Jr., Michael Blackson and Michael Colyar, Orji clearly holds her own. 

Yvonne’s unique comedic style incorporates her Nigerian heritage with a modern American twist, creating comedy that can be enjoyed by all. She also founded Rock Your Stance! Apparel, a clothing line that promotes positive messages based on Biblical Principles, in 2009. 

Seriously, is there anything she can’t do?!?!

Check out this clip from her stand-up, Dating White Men.
