Met Jo Koy at my store a few years back. The nicest guy. I couldn’t remember his name at the time but I remembered his Comedy Central specials and jokes. He took the time to talk to me, then went out to his car, brought me back those same specials on DVD and some random merch for free. Will always be a fan. Glad he’s still going.

[@johndoe-lz9jz]

Jo posting comments about himself here with an alias is kinda weird. 🤣

[@neojd]

@@johndoe-lz9jz Coming from a guy with an account name that seems like a bot. 😄

[@loufusilero8060]

​@@johndoe-lz9jzyou sound like a troll to me

[@Libra_Lumirian]

He is very approachable. He went from the bottom, up. He's one with the masses

[@HDGuruGuy]

Crazy to think he rented out a movie theater in Vegas to do his own shows when he first started out and his first Netflix special wasn't a special to begin with - Netflix didn't want to do it but he filmed it anyway on his own dime with the hopes that they would pick it up. He went all in (literally every dime he had) and Netflix ended picking it up. And 4 specials later here we are. It's such an amazing story!

[@kerled6169]

The guy is hilarious! I just hope he never lets the pressure and negativity of the industry get to his head. Looking forward to more of his specials.

[@ladym2398]

Great comedian. His future is so bright! Thumbs up to Jo Koy!👍🏼

[@WendyDahling3]

His new special is hysterical. It’s a smaller venue which felt more intimate. He’s a funny guy!

[@JenniferThePigeonFancier]

i am so proud of you JOKOY sana marami sa pinoy ang patuloy na sumuporta sayo... wala akong mahikayat manuod ng comedy specials mo kasi di ka nila magets haaay ako gets na gets kita.

[@oregonxl]

Jo koy was one of the first comedians I saw in the early 2000's that got me interested in watching stand up.

[@Trammel_Hand]

and he is still using that material. Sad.

[@finjibuns]

His next special needs to be at that theatre in Vegas and the opening has to involve Jimmy touching up the paint stripes he painted 30+ years ago. It's a great concept

[@estrellaluz05]

I love how Jokoy is proud of his Filipino heritage.

[@Beeman2892]

The Brooklyn special was a great redemption from the Golden Globes❤❤❤

[@Rebekaz1]

I watched his Brooklyn Netflix special last night... 😂😂 Had me laughing so hard!

[@jayr122001]

I love jokoy , he cure my depression

[@marsohlala]

Love Jo Koy!❤ He brings joy and laughter to everyone. He deserves all the wonderful things happening to his life.

[@noidph]

Just done watching the Brooklyn special a few minutes ago. Jo Koy hasn't lost his touch. I was laughing out loud at 7am in the morning!😁 Greetings from the Philippines, Jo Koy! You're a genius!😊🙏💕👏

[@whiv]

Jo Koy's stories about living in Vegas and being a dolphin tour guide are hilarious! Excited for his new Netflix special!

[@edmundcasey7765]

JIMMY & JOKOY . . . . FUN MATCH

[@Themom4x]

Super funny! I’ve watched all his specials and the Brooklyn is the funniest!

[@MarieNimo]

Do that Vegas show together ande and everyone will come ✨🙌🏼💛

[@AccelerateYourSuccess]

His specials always seem like a party.

[@david9156]

Met him in person and he was so chill and nice 😊

[@pastense]

You know a natural comic when he has to clarify that he’s being serious lol

[@JervsMasilungan]

These two should make a movie!

[@debispencer393]

I LOVE Jo Koy...he's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny! Love when he does his mom!!!

[@Shea3224]

This was hilarious interview, I mean, I knew it would be with two of my favorite Comedians. Anyway, I just really needed to see this, Thank you Jo Koy, & Jimmy Kimmel!! 💜💜

[@Desert8dweller]

Agreed.. definitely a relaxed FUN interview..didn't want it to end.

[@Shea3224]

@@Desert8dweller, Right? I wish it would’ve been a little longer. Still, in just those few minutes they didn’t disappoint. Jimmy, nor Joe ever disappoints with making us laugh!! 💜💜

You will always be hilarious. Watched Jokoy live in Brooklyn. I was laughing from beginning to end 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Desert8dweller]

Love JO KOY! this was fun- definitely do a show at the Vegas theater -both of you!

[@Evan-hockputer]

The guy is hilarious. Seen him three times in-person.

[@lashendawest7509]

We love jo koy and jimmy kimmel

[@vaderthekittenchannel1979]

I’m so happy for Jo’s success! ❤️

[@The_Bashar]

This was a wonderful chat!!!

[@matthewadair4507]

I said it once and I’ll say it again. Jo Koy is Filipino Howie Mandel.

[@DaoBach-lv2ky]

Porque???? Because they both bald. That i would agree, but if you're comparing their comedy level. Howies talent is the equivalent to a little yokie, and Koys talent level is the equivalent to a Timberwolve. I'm going through the darkest hour in my life right now, and Jo Koy makes me die of laughter, and not want to die. Jo Koy is a freaken legend. Kevin Hart is probably the hottest stand up comedian active right now. Even then. The only Speical that got me me laughing was "Laugh At My Pain" the rest of his specials wasn't funny at all. Koys specials: everyone was as great as Laugh At My Pain

[@alegnaozroc4764]

I LOVE YOU JO KOY

[@_rhodaet]

It sits #2 in the Philippines today. So good.

[@singmekaraoke4113]

you cannot please everyone but for me he's one of a kind comedian... its your belief not mine :)

[@arnav_1138]

Is it a wonder I broke? Let's hear one more joke (Jo-Koy) Then we could all just laugh until I cry 🙂

Nothing new about Carhartt being a fashion statement. He's just bringing it back from the 90's,.. NYC style😉😁

Why does Kimmel's chair have to be so much higher than his guest's? Looks like his guests are sitting in a hole.

[@jayelleart]

His teeth made me think of the episode where Ross from Friends got his teeth bleached 😆

[@rf7012]

You have your own teeth issues. Thanks for letting everyone know

[@jayelleart]

@@rf7012 WOW! You have no sense of humor. Feel bad for you.

[@727kj]

OMG! Same here😂😂

[@jayelleart]

@@727kj 🤣

[@Libra_Lumirian]

He's open about the fact that his teeth are fake. He damaged his gums from brushing too hard. I have the same issue. Perhaps he should have gotten a more natural looking one but when you're paying thousands, i get why he got the whitest, haha

[@reynaldojuan6454]

You're doing good kabayan, keep it up, filipino here

[@spectrumliving7197]

I enjoy Jo's stand ups but whoever did his teeth is diabolical 😂😅

Bro I am a Jokoy fan but dayum they did him wrong

People hated him because of the face Taylor Swift made. This guy is the best! Super funny and nice!
