Iglesias worked for a cell phone company in Los Angeles and in 1997 went into comedy full-time, though it resulted in his being evicted from his home and losing his car. Iglesias often references his weight in his comedy, often saying, “Oh, I’m not fat, I’m fluffy”, elaborating that there were five levels of fatness, “Big”, “Healthy”, “Husky”, “Fluffy”, and “DAMN!!!” He later added a 6th level, “Oh Hell No!!”

In 2000, he appeared in season 6 of the Nickelodeon sketch comedy series All That, co-starring with Amanda Bynes and Nick Cannon. In 2007, Iglesias voiced an entire Mexican family in “Padre de Familia”, a sixth season episode of the Fox TV animated comedy Family Guy. That same year, he began voicing a recurring set of identical twin characters on The Emperor’s New School, a Disney animated series that he describes as his favorite voice work.

Iglesias was a contestant on the fourth season of reality TV series Last Comic Standing in 2006, surviving elimination to become one of the final eight comics. He was disqualified at that point for having used a smuggled BlackBerry to communicate with family and friends, which violated the rules of the show.

In 2011, Comedy Central debuted Gabriel Iglesias Presents Stand Up Revolution, a standup showcase series which Iglesias produces and hosts. Iglesias has hosted/co-hosted six episodes of Equals Three. In 2012 he played a strip club DJ and drug dealer in the 2012 film Magic Mike.

In The Fluffy Movie, Iglesias describes how at his heaviest, which he states was 445 pounds (202 kilograms), he was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes, and with his blood sugar spiking to over 300 regularly, was given two years to live by his doctor. He said the shock of being told he had two years to live prompted him to reevaluate how he took care of himself and explained that he decided to lose weight in order to ensure his continued presence in the lives of his loved ones.

Iglesias described the struggle to incorporate a healthier lifestyle, relating how he was told by a specialist that his heavy touring schedule precluded him from being a candidate for bariatric surgery, and how he resorted instead to weight-lifting, Diamond Dallas Page Yoga, and a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, which helped him shed over 100 pounds (45 kilograms).

Other notable alumni include TV personality-rapper Nick Cannon, actress Amanda Bynes, and comedian Gabriel Iglesias.

Gabriel Iglesias: Beyond the Fluffy, World Tour To Come To NJPAC

New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents Gabriel Iglesias on Saturday, June 15 with shows at 6:00 pm and 9:30 pm. The stand-up comedian returns to NJPAC with his brand-new, side-splitting Beyond the Fluffy World Tour.

Iglesias is one of America’s most successful stand-up artists, performing to sold-out audiences around the world and racking up over 380,000,000 views on YouTube. Last year, Iglesias was featured in The Hollywood Reporter’s list of “Top 40 Comedy Players,” placing him alongside the likes of Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, and Lorne Michaels. Iglesias’ performances are a riotous blend of storytelling, parody, character and sound effects that bring his personal experiences to hysterical life.

On the big screen, Iglesias starred in Magic Mike, Magic Mike XXL, AHaunted House 2, and in his own theatrical stand-up concert film, The Fluffy Movie. He voiced the role of Jimmy in The Nut Job and Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature, and also lent his distinctive voice to other animated hits like The Book of Life, Coco, Ferdinand and Show Dogs.



Among Iglesias’ extensive television credits are several Comedy Central stand-up specials, including Aloha Fluffy, a two-night event that drew over 15 million viewers. He is the star and executive producer of Mr. Iglesias, a new Netflix comedy series set to premiere in 2019, and he can currently be seen on Netflix in his latest stand-up special, One Show Fits All.

NJPAC is located at One Center Street in Newark, New Jersey.
