He believes that increased diversity in the media is one way to keep combating the problem of discrimination.’ Anywhere there is a lack of representation, be it on-screen or in life, is a problem. And I’m aware that Australia has a problem, too,’ Wayne told the magazine.

He spent much time Down Under and is set to return for a national tour in June. He has traveled across the country, playing at venues from Perth to the Gold Coast.

Wayne Brady Quotes

• My mom didn’t let me play video games growing up, so now I do. Gaming gives me a chance to just let go, blow somebody up and fight somebody from another dimension. It’s all escapism.
• You need a strong family because, in the end, they will love you and support you unconditionally. Luckily, I have my dad, mom, and sister.
• Always, I thought that common sense would prevail. But on a game show, there is no common sense.
• I’m an actor first and foremost, who happens to do improv. I’ve also done sitcoms, I’ve done stage.
• I like to be left alone when I’m not working.

Wayne Brady and Mike Tyson

He had an idea to remake the video with Bobby himself and Mike Tyson – yes, “Iron” Mike Tyson – as the third back up dancer. Watch as Brady and Tyson mimic the 80s dance moves as best they could and lip-sync along with Brown. Just seeing Tyson in those little shorts and suspenders is worth the watch.
