   Wanda Keenan's Comedian Bio
BioI’ve worked since 13. My first house at 23 was a 4 bedroom, 3 storey townhouse in East London. I worked 72 hours per week for years to pay for that house and my wild life. I work during my winter holidays on the family Xmas Tree farm in Frenchay, Bristol. My aunt Tina Free creates beautiful custom pieces of Jewellery for the Tate and other National Galleries - using a contact I found for her while I recovered from a horrific car crash. Since August 2005 I have been a stand-up Comic. I love writing, performing and watching comedy. I took 4 comedy shows to Edinburgh - 2 of them were sell outs. This included the improvisation show that was extended from 1 - 2 hours long (The audience demanded it - they wouldn’t leave). I'm do a weekly sweet, sexual, naive Podcast with Anjelika Jinx, called Naive London Girl. It's downloaded 2500 times per day. These podcasts are popular in Japan, Canada, France, US, Tasmania and here in the UK. I’ve been likened to Ricky Gervais?!?!?! My aim is to make people happy - i’m a typical 6foot nice woman:-)
Websitenaivelondongirl.com
Influencesfunny women, whoopi goldberg, french and saunders, Laurel and Hardy (I would of been their love child - fatty's body, skinny's face), Tony Slattery and Josey Lawrence... ok the whole 'Whose Line' bunch.... I was a world weary alone teen - music and comedy was my window out and into a better world... (wowza I jumped out of that window - now my lifes a dreamy peachy paradise!) Carry On movies - hee heee cheeky... There are so many people that influence me - Star Trek Next Generation, Sound of Music, Terminator 2, Break Dance..., Fame (TV series), Red Hand Gang, A-Team, Number 73, My Relatives and all their little pets, Kenneth Williams, All the big Gene's Hac-Rodd-Kell-Wilder
Members...lots of nice, smart, kind people.... a few gits sneak in, but they're soon discovered and culled.....
TV ShowsRecently appeared on BBC3 ’Oops sorry, I stink of Fish’. I WASN’T one of the rancid sufferers - I was a paid sniffer... no I wasn’t paid enough and yes they REEKed - I would decree ’Youff-Enaz-E..na’ for that sort, put us all out their misery! Also Big Brother’s Little Mouth - I was the Shrieking girl, wearing a satin dress that was a slightly deeper than Violet. (There must be something seriously wrong with modern TV cameras - I know that’s not how I really look - it’s amazing people recognise me from the TV when I look so completely different). I gave Maggie Thatcher flowers when I was 4, outside Wesley’s Chapel, Islington. I smiled (gurned) and clumsily curtsied causing her to pick me up. (When I handed over my flowers to Mrs Thatcher, all the build up of getting a new yellow outfit, learning how to curtsy and what to say... then performing exactly as instructed by my mum, resulted in all the camera men, reporters, stewards, police, mum peering down at me... staring at me and laughing... I didn't understand and was overwhelmed. I began a small cry. The Iron lady picked me up and carried me around for the rest of her tour). I was on the news. I did a wonderful piece for House Doctor 3 years ago, the repeats in Canada have made me a minor celebrity (Hammersmith episode). I was on Dale Wintons quiz (can’t remember shows name). I did my trademark gurn and giggled (I was an audience member only, they told me I had the perfect face for Radio - Sarah Kennedy I want your JOB)
AlbumsMy babysitter was one of the kids featured on Pink Floyds Album. He sang - 'oh teacher, leave those kids alone' . While he babysat my brother and I (I was 4 or 5 years old) he would sit on my head and let off. I remember he found it very funny - and watching him laugh made me laugh too - despite being angry at this misuse. He bloomed into a hunk with a beard. He stayed in Islington, my family moved far away. My 4th Step Father introduced me to the Album cover designer for Annie Lennox. I was 10'ish - I remember they had Terepins and a nice, but dark home. My class had just got a Terepin so I had something to talk to them about - I remember they found me funny, but I didn't know why.

A couple of months ago I mentioned that I loved your voice, I finally figured out why. You sound like Madeline Kahn from the movie Yellowbeard. I've always loved her. She's funny, she's beautiful and she's sexy.
Does that sound like anyone YOU know?
