About Dean Edwards

As one of the stars of MTV2’s hit show, Guy Code, Dean has helped the show become the network’s most successful show in its history. He also just completed hosting a season of TV One’s clip show, Vidiots and serves as a correspondent on BET’s new program, Don’t Sleep, hosted by TJ Holmes.

A talented Actor/Comedian, most people remember Dean Edwards since making his mark in comedy during two successful seasons as a cast member on Saturday Night Live with such memorable impressions as Don Cheadle, Michael Jackson, and Denzel Washington, as well as such original characters as Man in Elevator and Cop#2, Dean always pushed himself to the limits of creativity and exhaustion. Always the multi-tasker, Dean found the momentum to juggle his SNL career, his numerous standup appearances, and multiple television appearances.

Edwards has earned a reputation as a headlining favorite at comedy clubs and colleges across the country. An international sensation, Dean has attended Montreal’s Just For Laughs Comedy Festival twice and was chosen to perform at the Jozi, Cape Town, and Durban Comedy Festival’s in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban South Africa, as well as Saudi Arabia in late 2009.
