Thank you for making us laugh so very hard on the Olivia Cruise. It was our very first cruise. And you help to make it enjoyable. Maybe, you will remember us my partner and I WON the newly wed game. I was the one who had on the rainbow wings. See you on the 40th cruise.

Gina, I just wanted to say thanks for making me laugh so hard on the Olivia Western Caribbean cruise. I really wish you all the best and hope that you make it to Atlanta or Tampa one day. Thanks again.

I stumbled upon you this morning while looking for good comedians on Youtube and oh my God (hope you don’t mind that I mention him/her)…you are hysterical! I would love to see you come to PA one day and do a show!! I live in the middle of no where…in the darn woods actually and I’d get in my car and travel just to sit in YOUR show. I’m originally from NY (not that you care) but now that we live in this God forsaken territory…I miss good comedians so thanks so much for making me laugh my …… off this morning!

Dear Gina
We attended last night at the South Bank, Overall I thought it was well worth the £12. I would come and see you again, I have been to many Comedy shows, following many British Comedians, Richard Blackwood, Kojo, so on.
I always enjoy when you draw on your childhood, when you talk about growing up and when you talk about your mum,
Mum: the dog is dead
Gina: crying, upset
Mum: go and put the dog in the bin

I first heard you talk about this at an Respect event at the O2 many years ago, funny then, when you asked the guy about his cat Monty, then touched on the cat being dead and having to make way for other rubbish in the bin, that was funny. I also like the way you touched on colour, the USA (Hollywood)
I wish you well with continued success.
I mean that.
Good luck and continue to bless us with your presence..

Great gig. Loved you at the southbank. It was an excellent performance. Next time on tour might be nice to have some ‘Saw Gina Live’ teeshirts with your image on it. Or just an image of you and the mic in the middle of a routine. This is winter season so if you a tour around this time next year get those ninja toilet stuff printed on cards. Mechanise it!

Great stuff!

Hi Gina

You left us in stitches at the Southbank show. My cheekbones are still aching from laughing so much. Please do come back to London in 2012 – I’m sure you could sell out a bigger venue than the Purcell Room!

Hi Gina,
Just heard you on Richard Bacon and could not agree more with you on the number of comedians from people of colour. I first heard you long ago on ‘Bouse + Skirt’ which whilst not as overproduced as some shows we get now was an oasis in an otherwise desert of diiference. Take care + hope to get and hope see you next year,
x Neil.

Hi Gina
Just a quick note to say me (white wife) and my lovely Nigerian husband had a truly great night last night sharing brilliant comedy with you and the crowd at the Albany Deptford London. Laughed till it hurt; you are really great at looking at both black and white life, just brilliant…loved it. Hope to see you again same place, same time in May 2012. Thanks for the fun, Elaine & Shedrack x

Hi Gina!

Fantastic show in Deptford lastnight!! We travelled all the way from Milton Keynes to see you. Would have loved to get you to sign my t shirt at the end as you were so kind coming out to meet and greet but we had to scoot otherwise would have missed our last train home! But loved it! Keep it up!

Hi Gina,

I was walking by the SouthBank today and saw that you’re in town. I could kick myself for not checking in sooner, as I was not early enough to get tickets for your gig on 30/11/2011.

I hope that you are planning more dates in the UK soon. The last I saw of you was your reality TV special – where you made colonic irrigation seem hilarious… LOL

Best wishes…

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add another date to your show in at the South Bank Centre (or any other London venue.

Went to the Harrow show. Sat behind Krishan the young lad you targetted ha ha. Brilliant show! So glad i signed up to your email newsletter so that i knew you was doing a tour of the UK. Came along as i had seen you at the Comedy Store Camden some time back and thought wow! When i heard you doing a show at Harrow i grabbed some tickets. Thoroughly enjoyed the show. Wanted to buy your dvd but amazon only seems to have the US Region version so not sure how to get hold of it?? Brilliant show, great night out.

Hello Gina,
You performed your radio play Gambling Rambling way back in 2002. I heard it and remember it. Is there any recording of it that can be made available to the public?

Hey Gina,
I desperately need you to come to Norwich and do another show….when you were there a couple of years ago,we were so happy to have you…being a Nigerian girl myself …grown up in Lagos I felt you were a kindred spirit…and besides I make the same kind of jokes about Nigeria and my family…..credit cards and all that…
We love you here, hope to see you soon…
Lots of love,

Hi Gina!

My partner & I (he greeted you in your language when taking some photos) saw you live in Barking the other evening. You’re the best. Very nearly passed out laughing throughout the whole show. Can’t wait for your next live appearance. Come back to see us soon.

Luv you.

|Hi Gina
Thanks for signing your DVD for my birthday on Friday (21.10.11)in Barking. It was soo funny that I had not taken off the selotane wrapper, before giving it to you. But I must say you were MUCH MORE funnier. Your show was BRILLIANT! Thanks for entertaining us and I will ensure we are on time to your next show, regardless of work committments.

Gina,

You are brilliant and you signed a copy of your DVD for us at the Southbank in the summer after another great gig! You are the most intelligent comidienne ever and as my wife is from Mauritius and I have Irish parents I totally get the immigrant thing. Your humour is always razor sharp and makes people think……well if they can think in the first place!

Looking forward to your next gig,

Ruba and Mike.

Hi Gina, nice to see you travelling all around the world, but equally glad you will be coming not to my borough, as I live in Ilford, but a barking next to me. I would love to come see you, as I think this will be the nearest I will get to you, the question is…Its my 50th birthday 26th sep 2011, and my fiance’s birthday 54th on 18th 2011, could I get tickets as a present to me and a present for my fiance, as he has just been away looking after his mother in JA, as she has been very ill, she has had to come back with him, it will be nice surprise for both of us, to get a night out…full stop, as I am unable to work due to RA and fibromaylgia, I am a full time mum, of a 11yr(17th sep 2011) mother to 3 other 31,28,22, but he has been unable to work for over 6 years, so money is tight!! Thank if can, but if not I understand. Love ya girl. Rose Solomon. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank again.

Wow!!! I have been waiting for your arrival and I didn’t even know it! You are the shit! It is so awesome to hear commentary from a global perspective from a black woman. I have lived abroad and I love hearing your observations because I have seen the same shit you talk about in your stand up. I’m so happy for you! I’m so happy that I know you are out there to spread the world and to let folks know that we see what’s going on in the world and we are out there experiencing it. I think you are on the Chris Rock/Dave Chappelle level and that is exactly what the world needs right now, a woman like you to tell it like it is. I saw you Showtime show and I was like jumping and hollering it was so funny. Keep doing what you’re doing. I promise to tell as many people about you as I can. Good luck and keep telling the truth; don’t let them turn your volume down!!!
