Breakfast Club Names Hilarious New Co-Host
• iHeartMedia announced that Jess Hilarious has been named as the new co-host of the Premiere-syndicated The Breakfast Club, alongside DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God, weekdays from 6-10am, effective Feb. 5. She succeeds Angela Yee, who for the past year has anchored her own syndicated show, Way Up With Angela Yee.
“I’m very excited to have Jess Hilarious join The Breakfast Club. She is a force in her own right, an actress, comedian, podcaster, and now, the co-host of The Breakfast Club,” said Thea Mitchem, iHeartMedia EVP of Programming. “Jess was the standout choice to join Charlamagne and DJ Envy to build upon The Breakfast Club‘s legacy of entertaining, informing and enlightening the community.”
Baltimore native Jess Hilarious is a comedian, actress and storyteller who has been a standout on shows like Rel and Wild ‘N Out. With more than 5.5 million Instagram followers, and sold-out shows across the country, Jess Hilarious is more than a comedian — she’s a relatable, real-life figure who brings joy and humor to all who encounter her work.
“I’m looking forward to joining forces with one of the largest media platforms,” said Hilarious. “I’m confident that taking the third seat at The Breakfast Club will show people that Jess Hilarious is not just comedy, but culture.”
