Michael Yo is a stand-up comedian coming up under the wings of Chelsea Handler on "Chelsea Lately" as a recurring comedy panelist. Stand-up has become a staple for Michael and he is now headlining across the country. Michael is Hollywood's resident entertainment and pop culture expert. He can be seen on CBS' "The Insider" covering the latest in celebrity news and gossip, as well as guest co-hosting CBS' "The Talk," and appearing regularly as a hot topic talker on "The Wendy Williams Show." Additionally, Michael can be heard on SiriusXM as host of "Hits1 in Hollywood" weekday afternoons on channel 2. The self-proclaimed "Half-Black Brother with a Korean Mother" is known in the entertainment industry as the more respectful entertainment news correspondent as he will always embarrass himself more than his interviewees. Michael was born and raised in Houston and got his start in Austin at the popular central Texas station 96.7. After his stint in Texas radio, Michael moved east for college to his other hometown, Miami, where he was recruited by #1 radio station Y100. Following Miami, he made the move to Los Angeles where he's worked as a correspondent for "Extra," "E! News," and appeared regularly on "The Daily 10" and "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami." Michael lives in the heart of Hollywood with his wife and their French Bulldog Paul. Hide
