Dulce Sloan

Comedian and Actress Dulce Sloan was a correspondent on Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Trevor Noah for six years (2017-2023). She currently continues on as a contributor and has taken over the main chair as guest host multiple times since the departure of Noah to critical acclaim. This year she was nominated for a GLAAD Award in the category "Outstanding Variety or Talk Show Episode" for her interview with Sasha Colby during one of those guest host runs. Also under this banner, she co-hosted the popular podcast Hold Up with Daily Show writer and fellow comedian Josh Johnson. On the podcast, the two co-workers turned their hilarious, unpredictable, and legendary office banter into a weekly war of words about topics big and small, but mostly small.

Dulce's memoir written in comedic essays Hello, Friends! - Stories of Dating, Destiny, and Day Jobs was released last year by Random House. From a childhood moving between cities, starting her own business selling toys at a Miami flea market, to being a Black kid in a predominately white school, she's always used her masterful wit to challenge the status quo. Have you ever dated an adult who roller skated, or went out with a mechanic just to get free auto service? Yup, she's got that story for you. Her stories are both wildly entertaining and culturally resonant.

Her new Netflix set premiered last year as part of their new standup series Verified Stand Up with The New York Times lauding "In less than 15 minutes, her set packs a wallop."She can also be heard as part of the cast of FOX's hit animated series The Great North, currently in its 4th season, on which Sloan voices the character "Honeybee" alongside an ensemble of comedy heavyweights including Jenny Slate, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally, Will Forte, and Paul Rust.

In 2023 Dulce debuted as the host of The CW's new comedy game show The Great American Joke Off. In the series, Sloan hosts her fellow comics as they compete in coming up with hilarious set-ups for different punchlines or even using the texts on an audience member's phone as a springboard for jokes, all in a celebration of gags, wisecracks, one-liners and the art of joke telling.

Sloan recently appeared as a guest judge on the iconic long-running series RuPaul's Drag Raceand was a celebrity guest on CNN's New Year's Eve Live with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen. She is a regular guest on NPR's popular Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me and is a favorite on the talk show circuit with appearances on Watch What Happens Live, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and Sherri, to name a few.

On the big screen, Dulce starred in the action-comedy feature Chick Fight alongside Malin Akerman, Alec Baldwin, and Bella Thorne with The Hollywood Reporter declaring "Dulce Sloan...not just steal(s) the movie but make(s) sure that no one else even comes close." She graced the Fall 2020 cover of SLiNK Magazine where they crowned her "The New Queen of Comedy," and Rolling Stone recently hailed her as one of the 10 Comedians You Need To Know declaring "she speaks and they simply fall in line behind her."
