Ken Jeong honored as “Breakout Comedy Star of the Year”

Ken Jeong, one of our favorite comedy actors, will be awarded “Breakout Comedy Star of the Year,” at the Just For Laughs Comedy conference in Montreal later this month, reports The Hollywood Reporter.

Jeong returned as the hilariously inappropriate Mr. Chow in The Hangover Part II to shamelessly remind audiences why they loved the first movie. He can also be seen in Transformers: Dark of the Moon as Jerry Wang, Venom in the upcoming movie Zookeeper, and Señor Chang on the NBC’s Community.

We’re excited to see Ken Jeong receive the recognition he deserves!
