Area comedian not ‘Next Big Comic’

Local comedian Ryan Singer is not CMT’s Next Big Comic.

A comedian named Pete Lee beat out West Carrollton’s Singer and two other finalists in a national, online competition.

You’ll still be able to see Singer locally and online. He performs at Wiley’s and the Funny Bone, and even Canal Street. He also tours across the country.

He released a comedy CD, “How to Get High Without Drugs,” in 2009 which received good online reviews. He has a Web site with sketches at RyanSingerComedy.com.
