John Pinette
John Pinette (born March 23, 1964)[1] is an actor and stand-up comedian based in the United States. He has toured the comedy club circuit since the 1980s and has appeared in cinema and television. His routines primarily revolve around his weight, and his love for the buffet. However, in 2001 John lost an incredible amount of weight. He explains this in his new DVD I Say Nay, Nay, which was released in 2004, as being the result of a long training routine developed by a series of trainers so that he can become more healthy. However, he still maintains his affinity for buffets and has not lost his signature "cherub-like demeanor". Besides straight stand-up, John has done noteworthy impressions of The Chipmunks and Elvis Presley, also the Ewok from Star Wars and also is recognized as having an impressive singing voice, as noted by his modified rendition of Somewhere Over The Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz in one of his stand-up routines.
