The project was done in 1952 and demolished in 2014. This was home to many African American popular figures slike Diana Ross, Mary Wilson and more.

She was a pretty good student and she was always very invested in all of the work she did. Because of her dedication, she managed to become an electrical engineer and she uses her memories and situations in comedy as well.

She said that many people thought she wouldn’t finish her university because she was African American, but because of that, she decided to prove them wrong.

She graduated from Cass Technical in 1989 and worked at General Motors for some time.

She used to make her colleagues laugh all of the time, and she also won $50 on a small comedy contest. She was always the clown of the group, as she says, and she spends most of her time making others smile.

Career development

She continued to work in her job field, at Xerox, but after her regular job, she would go to a place called Laugh Factory, where she would be a stand-up comedian and she would polish her comedy skills.

She said that at the beginning, she was excited about both opportunities, but as time went by, she started to like the comedy a bit more.

She said that after 8 years of working as an engineer, she realized that, although she loves that, comedy is a much bigger passion of hers. She wanted to go do comedy full time and she realized that shew as going to have to stop working on her regular job to do that.

She wasn’t afraid of this, though, because she was already an established comedian and she was pretty popular in Laugh Center. However, there is always a small doubt that’s pretty healthy and reasonable, she says.

She has also been a guest on VH1 on their show called I Love the 2000s. On there, she could listen to some of her favorite songs from that time and comment on them. She said that she had a lot of fun there jamming to some of the songs that marked her exciting first years in business.

In 2003, she was on Star Search, but she lost in the finals. This was a good turning point for her career to get some beginner’s recognition.

The Campus Activity magazine named her the „Hot Comic“ of 2009 and she was very happy to hear that.

In 2008, she worked with CNN and she was covering the big event of Obama’s inauguration. Naturally, this was in the idea of being a guest on D.L.Hughley Breaks the News, a comedy show. She said that she could never be serious about reporting these things.

She says that after all this time one of her favorite things is to visit clubs and do random stand-ups somewhere where people don’t know her name. It’s a great throwback for her and she says that she would love to do it even more often.

It was in 2009 when she made her first big one-hour special episode with Comedy Central. It was called America’s Sister and it was on air during May of 2010. It received pretty good reviews and she was very happy about it since this gave her positive exposure as well.

In 2015, she was called to be in Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2. She also was in Bad Asses on the Bayou and she said that she was fangirling a lot when hanging out with her icons Danny Trejo and Danny Glover.

There has been a rumor that she was engaged with Sam, a guy that was in one of the comedy clubs she was also in. She never confirmed this and it’s obvious that she has a new love interest now. She doesn’t like to be open about her relationships.

Love says that many men were intimidated by her and that many are very rude on her social media and they continue to fat shame her and call her comedy bad. She doesn’t mind any of those because she is used to people being entitled to their own opinion and sharing it where it doesn’t belong.
