Named by Entertainment Weekly as one of 12 comics to watch in 2009, Roy has been featured on the new season of CBS' THE LATE SHOW w/ David Letterman, HBO's DEF COMEDY JAM and TV One's ¬ËœThe Funny Spot w/ Tony Rock.'

He's also showcased at the prestigious MONTREAL COMEDY FESTIVAL and is a regular guest on the E! Network's ¬ËœCHELSEA LATELY'. Hailing from Birmingham, AL, Roy's creative writing and dedicated work ethic has since earned him the right to perform his comedy in front of millions of people coast to coast. The Montreal Gazette called Roy's 2006 festival performance on the ¬ËœNew Faces' show ¬Å“tremendous¬Â and the Hollywood Reporter called Roy a ¬Å“standout¬Â.
