In "Willie Barcena: The Truth Hurts", the comedian's latest comedy special, Willie isn't afraid to share his feelings on everything from questioning God, his explanation of natural disasters, a history of women according to the Bible, raising his sons, his revelation in a gay club, to marrying a woman with large feet. Filmed live in El Paso, Texas, "The Truth Hurts" is the third in a trilogy of critically acclaimed live specials, all dealing with Willie's propensity to tell it like it is -- "Willie Barcena: Deal With It" (Comedy Central, 2009), and "Willie Barcena: I Gotta Be Honest" (Showtime, 2012).

Willie's talents have led him to 11 appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and TV appearances on "The Wayans Brothers", Si TV's "Latino Laugh Festival" and "Moesha". Willie has proudly performed for our U.S. Troops in Afghanistan and has toured with The Latino Laugh Festival, Montreal's Just For Laughs and Que Locos.

"Willie Barcena: The Truth Hurts" is distributed by New Wave Entertainment / Comedy Dynamics, and is now streaming as a "Netflix Exclusive". Willie can be seen touring clubs and theatres nationwide throughout 2016 as well as international dates in Korea.
