KEVIN HART | Before They Were Famous - BIOGRAPHY

Kevin Hart was raised by his single mother in Philly, while his jailed, coke-addict father hung over their family like a dark cloud. Things were tough and money was tight, Kevin slept in a bunk bed in a hallway and would eat tuna and sardines from a can for dinner. He used humour to deal with his troubles early on but the funny man didn't consider trying comedy until after graduating from community college. When he did finally get up on stage he fell in love. Sadly, the audience didn't feel the same. With no signature style, and him being too afraid to talk about his own life experiences, Kevin went through years of getting booed off stage. But when he finally decided to open up and poke fun at himself and suddenly things started to click.
