Helen Paul and Princess need no introduction as they have planted smiles on the faces of Nigerians through their comedy acts.
But it seems Princess is losing touch in her bid to make people laugh. At a recent comedy show in Lagos, Princess was certainly not in her elements as she failed to make her audience laugh. She was on stage for about seven minutes or more but was not able to crack the ribs of the crowd. Some of her jokes bothered on her broken marriage and other problems she has faced in life and this irritated her audience. People barely smiled let alone laugh at her ‘dry’ jokes.
Satuday Beats overheard an irritated guest saying, “I cannot believe I paid to come to listen to someone else’s problems. She is not even funny. If she were selling clothes, I am sure she would do better by now.”
Another bored guest who couldn’t hide her irritation said, “If Princess should just twerk (dance) on stage instead of cracking jokes, she would do better even though it would not be a wonderful sight for the eye based on her stature,” she said.
But just as Princess left, petite comedian, Helen Paul, climbed on the stage. The difference was very clear as she turned the hall around and cracked so many ribs with laughter.
Ironically, Helen spent less than five minutes on the stage, cracked just three jokes and managed to resurrect the already bored audience.
After her performance, a lady in the audience said, “Shebi this is another female comedian that has made us laugh. She did not even stay as long as Princess. Princess needs to improve herself.”
