Press Release Summary: Houston Comedian Ali Is The Only Southern Comedian To Appear
On HBO\'s Groundbreaking Show

Press Release Body: Houston, February 1, 2008 - Stand up Comedian Ali is set to
appear on HBO's Def Comedy Jam, March 9, 2008, at 8:00 PM exclusively on HBO. Ali
will be the second comedian from Houston ever to appear on the show.

While many viewers of the ground breaking series may not easily recognize Ali, his
determination and unique comedy style has made him a household name in Houston, TX.
He is very excited about being added to this season's lineup, and surely made
everyone laugh during the live audience taping held at Los Angeles' Orpheum Theatre
last September.

Ali calls Houston his home and credits local establishment Jus Joking in supporting
him during the initial phase of his career. Since then, he has been seen on many
shows including BET's Comic View, and Bill Bellamy's "Who Got Jokes."

Russell Simmons' Def Comedy Jam first aired in 1992 and was developed by hip hop
mogul Russell Simmons and veteran director- producer Stan Lathan. The show has
served as the starting point of major careers for comedians like Cedric the
Entertainer and Bernie Mac.
