Bill Bellamy to Perform at the Suncoast Showroom, 2/9 & 10

Drawing from his real-life experiences growing up in New Jersey, Bill Bellamy brings his clever comic routine to the Suncoast Showroom, February 9 and 10.

After winning numerous comedy competitions, Bellamy made his television debut on "Showtime at the Apollo." He caught the attention of comedy producers Bernie Brillstein and Russell Simmons, who signed him as a guest star of HBO's "Def Comedy Jam" in 1992. Bellamy went on to star in his own Showtime comedy special, "Booty Call," in 1996.

Bellamy became a staple of the MTV generation as host of "MTV Jams" in the late '90s. He continued his television career as the voice of the title character in "Cousin Skeeter" from 1998-2001, as a recurring character in "Men, Women & Dogs" in 2001 and 2002, and "Fastlane" in 2002 and 2003.

Bellamy made his feature film debut in 1997 in "Love Jones" and has gone on to star in numerous films, including "Any Given Sunday," "The Brothers" and "Lottery Ticket."

In June 2012, Bellamy's "Crazy Sexy Dirty" comedy special debuted on Showtime and is available on DVD. Currently, he stars in the syndicated comedy "Mr. Box Office."

Showtime each evening is 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available from $15.95, plus tax and fees. Tickets can be purchased at any Coast Casinos box office, by calling 702.636.7075, or visiting www.suncoastcasino.com.
