Russell Peters: Bring on the funny

That Russell Peters is in high demand is no joke — tickets to his shows in Dubai and Abu Dhabi this week sold out in record time. ‘This show is my style of comedy, but it\'s all new,\' says the Canadian stand-up comic. Airport proposal, Vegas wedding, Elvis impersonator, gorgeous wife-to-be, baby on the way: the 2010 wedding of comedian Russell Peters was a sure-fire conversation starter, so I jumped right in. \"I\'m getting divorced,\" came the reply, before the line went dead. Gulp. \"I don\'t think it\'s a natural place for humans to be unless they truly think they can\'t live without each other,\" came the surprisingly upbeat follow-up. The world-renowned Canadian comic married girlfriend Monica Garcia on August 20, 2010, having dropped on one knee at Los Angeles International Airport just one month before. From: Gulfnews
