Andrew Dice Clay

Who Andrew Dice Clay is

American stand-up comedian and actor who rose to fame in the late 1980s with 'The Diceman', a brash, deliberately offensive persona. Alongside HBO specials, the concert film Dice Rules and Rick Rubin-produced albums such as The Day the Laughter Died, in 1990 he became the first comedian to sell out two consecutive nights at Madison Square Garden. He later won praise for dramatic roles in Blue Jasmine (2013) and A Star Is Born (2018) and starred in Showtime's Dice (2016–2017).
