This App is a collection of all the funniest jokes, twits and videos by BasketMouth, a Nigerian Comedian. It is guaranteed to make your ribs crack with laughter. The grass keeps getting greener for Comedian Bright Okpocha, better known as Basketmouth. It’s part of his rising profile that Okpocha recently hosted Comedy Central in South Africa. Known for his witty retorts and rib-cracking jokes, it wasn't difficult to single him out in the award-winning list of entertainers as the first Nigerian comedian to host this high-profile comedy show in South Africa. Coming shortly after he became anchor for MTV’s The Big Friday Show, this is incontrovertible evidence that Basketmouth is on the brighter side of life.he story of comedy in Nigeria can never be complete without a chapter deservedly devoted to Basketmouth. Christened Bright Okpocha at birth by his parents, the Isiukwuato, Abia State born entertainment practitioner who is in his 30’s towers above many in his sector. One of the leading lights of comedy, the enormously blessed rib cracker.Here are his own views on his profession:A good comedian is someone that can feed from his environment that can make a joke from even the saddest moment. A good comedian is someone that is very, very active with his timing, confident and feeds from his audience. This is the most important one – a good comedian is someone that can be extremely spontaneous on stage. You have to be able to free your mind, see the crowd. Most times they will tell you that when you get on stage, do not look at the crowd; but not in comedy. In comedy, you have to see your crowd and be able to pick things from them and create jokes on the spot. That’s what makes a good comedian, apart from the fact that you really need to be assessed by the appearance and not only the content and most people don’t understand that. A good comedian is someone that is funny, that is enlightened, intelligent, someone that is perceived to have class, because you cannot sell water in the champagne bottle neither can you champagne in the water bottle. You have to sell champagne in the champagne bottle and water in the water bottle. That is my own analogy. What is the greatest thing that comedy has done for you? Comedy has taught me a lot, because laughter is something that we all need. When I was younger, I thought everyone was funny because all my friends, everybody in my family was funny and I didn’t know that being funny was a talent, being funny was a gift and when I found out, I realized that what I had was a gift and when you have a gift, you have to use it and use it well. Now, what I’ve learnt from comedy is the fact that I need to be free-hearted every time because people expect me to be funny. I’ve learnt to be always a little bit freer with my environment, with the people around me and it’s key. basketmouthBasket Mouthbasketmouth weddingNigerian Comediansbasket mouthnaija comedynaija entertainmentlondon comedianbasketmouth comedybasket mouth jokesbasket mouth comedybasket mouth comedianentertainment in naijaay the comediancomedy nigeriannigeria londonnigeria in londonentertainment naijacomedian 2013comedy by basket mouthbasket mouth website nigeriabasket mouth comedy showhow old is basket mouth
