Born Pedro Herrera III, this son of Mexican-American immigrants has built a comedy career through a combination of observational standup and Chicano-tinged pop music parodies. Some of his best-known bits involve the retooling of hits by Drake and Carly Rae Jepsen. Chingo’s music videos for “Hotline Bling Remix” and “Call Me Maybe (Pos Why Ju Hating?)” have racked up millions of views and he recently released a standup and sketch comedy special on Netflix—Chingo Bling: They Can’t Deport Us All. The first performance of his one-night San Jose run is already sold out. ¡Andale, güey! (NV)
