Hasan Minhaj

Comedian

In 2017, comedian Hasan Minhaj had a breakout year, rising to prominence by hosting the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where he deftly balanced race, politics, and the First Amendment while roasting the President, politicians and media. Minhaj followed-up a month later with the debut of his Netflix special, Homecoming King, in which he told touching and funny stories of growing up Muslim in northern California. Hasan has been a senior correspondent on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show for several years, and will launch his own weekly talk show on Netflix later this year.
