Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias – Bio

Iglesias is one of America’s most successful stand-up comedians performing to sold-out concerts around the

world. He is also one of the most watched comedians on YouTube with almost a billion views and has over 25

million fans across social media. In 2018, Gabe was included in The Hollywood Reporter’s “Top 40 Comedy

Players” issue alongside comedy giants Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock and Lorne Michaels. The comedian has also had

the distinct honor of being one of the few to headline and sell-out Madison Square Garden in New York, Staples

Center in Los Angeles and Sydney Opera House in Australia.

Iglesias is the star and executive producer of Mr. Iglesias, the multi-cam, Netflix original comedy series, which is

currently streaming Part 1-3. Iglesias plays a good-natured public high school teacher who works at his alma

mater. He takes on teaching gifted but misfit kids to not only save them from being “counseled out” by a bully

bureaucrat Assistant Principal, but also to help them unlock their full potential. In 2020, the show won best

Primetime Comedy at The Imagen Awards, which recognizes positive portrayals of Latinx actors/actresses in the

entertainment industry.

In addition to the Netflix comedy series, Iglesias penned a deal with Netflix to release his next two stand-up

comedy specials for the streaming service. The first, titled One Show Fits All, was filmed in front of a sold-out

audience at the Toyota Center in Houston and debuted in January 2019. His third special for the streaming

service will tape in the fall of 2021; both of these specials are follow-ups to his highly successful 2016 special, I’m

Sorry For What I Said When I Was Hungry, which was filmed at the Allstate Arena in Chicago to two sold-out

shows with a total of 20,000 fans in attendance.

The actor/comedian also hosts Nickelodeon’s comedic competition show, Unleashed. The series brings the most

impressive animal acts together to compete on-stage in front of a kid jury and celebrity judges Peyton List,

Preacher Lawson, and Utkarsh Ambudkar for the title of “Most Entertaining Pet” of the night. It was the #1 live

action telecast spot with K6-11 through its first season.

Feature film credits include co-starring roles in Magic Mike, Magic Mike XXL and A Haunted House 2. Gabriel’s

voice has been heard in many animated films over the years. He voiced “Speedy Gonzales” in the highly

anticipated film, Space Jam: A New Legacy, which released July 16th in theaters & streamed on HBOMAX. In

2017, Iglesias voiced the role of “Head Clerk” in Pixar’s Academy Award nominated animated film Coco. He also

voiced “Babo” in Ugly Dolls, “Rufus the Dog” in Sony’s Golden Globe nominated animated holiday film The

Star and “Cuatro” in Fox 20th Century Film’s Academy Award nominated animated film Ferdinand. Gabriel is one

of a handful of comedians with a theatrically released stand-up concert comedy film, The Fluffy Movie.
