Jiaoying Summers Live

Jiaoying Summers recently released her Hulu comedy special What Specie Are You?. She was named one of Variety’s “10 Comics to Watch” (2025), shining in her debut stand-up hour as she explores what divides us, what unites us, and what belonging truly means. Drawing from her life as a first-generation immigrant, she transforms cultural clashes, identity, and motherhood into razor-sharp comedy that resonates across continents.

An award-winning performer and Asian Hall of Fame inductee, Jiaoying is one of the most influential Asian voices in comedy today. She made history as the first Chinese comedian to headline and sell out the Apollo Theater in New York City. With over 1 billion views and more than 5 million followers, she is a global digital force. Her viral “Uber Karen” sketches and comedic breakdowns of English names have earned her a devoted worldwide fanbase.

Beyond stand-up, Jiaoying is the creator and host of the hit podcast Tiger Mommy, where she interviews comedians, artists, and cultural leaders in intimate, unfiltered conversations. She is also a successful entrepreneur and former Miss China, now owning and operating The Hollywood Comedy and The Green Room Comedy Café, two performance hubs dedicated to elevating diverse and underrepresented comedic talent.

Fearless, modern, and unapologetically sharp, Jiaoying Summers delivers bold commentary on identity, race, gender, and cultural belonging. She is one of the most dynamic and unmissable comedians working today.
