My Memoir, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record
Chaunté Wayans is a proud member of the legendary Wayans family, a multi-hyphenate actress, comedian, writer, producer, and advocate for LGBTQ rights, mental health, and addiction. Growing up in New York City she was surrounded by multi-talented, creative uncles like Keenen, Damon, Marlon, and Shawn who served as role models while she pursued standup comedy and carried on the family legacy.
Wayans is constantly creating and staying on top of her game. She is headlining her Technically Speaking comedy tour which takes her to major cities across the country. She is currently on HBO Max Marlon Wayans Presents: The Headliners as the sole LGBTQ performer in this one-hour long, noholds-barred stand-up comedy special. This comes on the heels of her critically acclaimed performance on Netflix Is A Joke: Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready produced by Wanda Sykes. Follow Chaunté @cwayans and visit cwayans.com.
