Meeting Mexican Elvis | Gabriel Iglesias

[@dvldog_]

Gabriel is that rare comedian who doesn't tell a joke... he tells stories that are funny and endearing... he seems like such a genuine and personable guy...... keep up the good work Fluffy!

[@draintheswamp1588]

dvldog_0311, you are totally correct about Gabriel. My wife and I met him after a show in Sacramento around 2008. He hugged us for a picture and is the warmest and genuine people in the business. I don't think he's changed since then. Love the way you described his "act". So true.

[@davidrichter9164]

The man is truly awesome.😂

[@isabellancali5388]

That’s just how we are as Mexicans...it’s in our blood. We tell stories and jokes through stories. My uncles are a riot every holiday that we get together. 🤣

Coming back to this video now that Chente has passed away. I sincerely think there's no Latino that hasn't heard his music on the radio or anywhere really, parties, family reunions. Vicente is a legend and I hope that his music never stops playing. Thank you for making me laugh Fluffy and for honoring him. R.I.P. Vicente Fernandez.

Fluffy, I live in Spain and I found out about you in the videos timeline here in KZbin by accident I guess. I have to tell you that I've seen so many videos of you since then. I think you're not only a great comedian but an excellent person. The way you talk about your wife and stepson is very special, but this video about your mom is truly emotional. In any case, all I wanted to say is that you have a new fan here in the canary islands, Spain. Keep it up, and keep making the Latino community in the US proud like only you can.

[@niladrideb554]

I saw this video about few weeks ago. But today it came to me as a recommended video. But today this video hits different and it feels special - because today is Mother's Day. And what makes this more beautiful is that Fluffy keeps a smile on his face when he talks about his mom. I'm sure many people would be in tears remembering about their mom, but this guy talks with a smile on his face about his mom when she took his last photo. I'm sure she would be very proud and happy to see that her boy smiles when he talks about her. And Fluffy after all you've been through in your life - a lot of teasing about your body shape, the losses in your life and despite that to stand up say jokes and be like 'I don't care what the world thinks of me because I'm happy with who I am' takes a lot of effort! Hats off Mr. Gaberial Iglesias! You are a inspiration to millions! I hope some day I could be like you! And to all the mothers reading this comment - I wish you all a very Happy Mother's Day!

[@sfmc98]

He's not exaggerating about three hours. I saw Chente in concert twice in the last ten years, drinking shots, pistols on his hips, _taking away the microphone_ and hitting notes that filled the entire arena. And the cool part was that anyone who wanted to come on stage and sing with him could. He was truly about his fans like no one is today.
