    I..m a comedian and actor from Wellington, NZ. I..ve been doing comedy since 2003 and in that time have toured all over NZ, U.K and as far as the Middle East.

Bio:

My name is Cori. I am a comedian and actor from Wellington, New Zealand. I was born in Chile, South America but moved here when I was 6. Boy, am I excited about having a myspace account. The only problem is that everyone who sees this will know that it is me writing this bio. The bio on my website is written in the 3rd person and looks as if a manager or agent wrote it making me look very professional even though it was indeed me that wrote it. If I write a bio on myspace about how awesome I am or about the number of comedy awards that I have won (6 in less than 3 years), I'll look like an arrogant wanker. I drive a 1992 Mazda Astina with flick up lights. The ladies love it. I also have the physique of a seasoned ice skater which the ladies also love. I'm currently looking for a good gang to join. I've had quite a few offers from the Crips and the Bloods and the Vatos Locos but choosing a gang ain't something you rush into so im taking my time. We all know what it's like when you join a gang and decide to leave after a few days....Awkward! Anyway, I'm still really excited about this. Go to my website www.cori.co.nz to find out more about me. I've also got a a brand new comedy show called RhinoRadar that i've done with a few other comedians,actors, writers and filmmakers which you can check out at www.rhinoradar.com.
