Saying what we’re all thinking has always been Sebastian Maniscalco’s specialty. Except when he says it it’s a whole lot funnier. His brand new Showtime standup special “Aren't You Embarrassed?” debuted on November 14 the sophisticated comedian with the chiseled cheekbones gives us a hilarious reality check of the world we all find ourselves living in. Continuing to bring his witheringly sarcastic and exasperated take on modern behavior and etiquette in his second Showtime special in two years Sebastian takes on everything from selfies that he calls “lonelies” (“Do you know how alone you have to be to have 838 photos of yourself in your bathroom?”) to online restaurant reviews (“Who’s got the time to write an 18 page essay on asparagus?”) to airport check-ins (“I’m taking out a boot…a sock…a toothpaste…does anyone know what two pounds is?”). The special has already spawned the Twitter hash tag #Aren’tYouEmbarrassed with thousands of followers donating their take via social media on the absurdities of everyday life in the year 2014. Taping the special “Aren’t You Embarrassed?” in Chicago was a homecoming of sorts for the self-proclaimed ‘half-Sicilian half-Italian’ who grew up in the middle class suburbs of Chicago (“The world doesn’t match my upbringing”). Priding himself on a work ethic his father instilled in him when he began working at the age of 8 Sebastian made his first dime as an altar boy at funerals during his lunch break to contribute to the family.   Still sporting his Chicago accent despite leaving the Windy City in the early 2000’s to follow his dream in Los Angeles Sebastian began paying his comedy dues by night playing his brand of comedy in bars and bowling alleys while working as a waiter at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills. He eventually broke into the national spotlight with a 20-city tour in support of his one-hour Comedy Central DVD Special. Yet it wasn’t until Sebastian captured the attention of award-winning actor and entertainer Vince Vaughn who selected him to be one of four featured comedians in the critically acclaimed film “Vince Vaughn’s Wild West Comedy Show” that his comedy career began to explode.   Since then the 2014 American Comedy Award nominee for Best Club Comedian has established an avid fan following via national late night television appearances on “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” “Lopez Tonight” “Conan” and “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”. Sebastian is also a popular guest on such ground-breaking podcasts as “WTF with Marc Maron” in addition to starring in his own wildly popular “The Pete and Sebastian Show” podcast every Friday night. If that wasn’t enough Sebastian is currently writing a pilot for NBC alongside Austen Earl and Greg Garcia. Still enjoying the honeymoon phase with new wife and renowned L.A. based artist Lana Gomez Sebastian continues to develop new material at frequent shows at the Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard. Sebastian also routinely devotes time to The COMMIT Foundation which creates serendipity for veterans by fostering mentorship extending professional networks and promoting familiar camaraderie for our country’s military.  At the moment Sebastian says he finds himself ’happier than ever’…and he ain’t embarrassed one bit.
