MotorCity Casino Hotel will welcome comedian Anjelah Johnson to Sound Board on Thursday, December 4, 2014 at 8:00 p.m.

Anjelah became an internet sensation with her viral video "Nail Salon" which led to many stand up and performance opportunities. That same year, she joined the cast of "MADtv" as a series regular, which spawned another internet sensation "Bon Qui Qui." This original character, a disgruntled fast food employee with no filter, has been enjoyed, viewed and replicated by over 55 million people worldwide. After recording and releasing three songs and two music videos as Bon Qui Qui, Anjelah signed a record deal with Atlantic records to release a full album. The songs and the videos are currently available on iTunes and YouTube.

In addition to stand up and music, Anjelah has guest starred in a number of TV shows including The Shield, Ugly Betty, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. In 2010 Johnson starred in Our Family Wedding alongside Carlos Mencia, Regina King, and Oscar winner, Forest Whitaker. She also lent her voice to box office hits such as Alvin and The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel and animated film Marmaduke.

In June 2009 Anjelah recorded her first one-hour special for Comedy Central and Warner Brothers Records titled "That's How We Do It". Her second one-hour special, The Homecoming Show, aired on NUVOtv in July of 2013 and was released later that same year.
