Rex is the pioneer Filipino-American comedian ✊🏽 Saw him live in Hawaii some 9 or 10 years ago and I was crying of laughter! My parents are from the Philippines and I was born in the U.S. Most of his jokes are Filipino-culture focused so ppl who didn’t grow up in that culture may not relate to the jokes as well as someone who did would. But I think he is just hilarious 😂 and represents our culture well. Mabuhay Rex 🇵🇭
Y'all need to take a joke.... For all yall haters out there. It's only a joke... It's not serious. Doesn't mean it's an insult. I'm Filipino and I totally get it. It's hilarious. I'm also from the visayan region and I completely understand.
Seriously, I never knew he was on Lopez Tonight. Congratulations Rex! Thank goodness Daniel Gonzales told you to get out and tell those jokes of yours. -Much love from SF State
Hew flew at the San Francisco's Cobbs Comedy Club after this taping and he was off the hook. This was just a small part of a hella... I say hella... funny routine. The other stand-ups were funny ass hell too, but he was the headliner. My gut and jaw were aching after the show.
Love the vibe, the shirt. Mr. Lopez, thank you for giving a fellow Cali man the boost. Our ancestors Mr. Itliong and Mr. Chavez from the Cali fields would have approved:)
In Manny's defense, how well would most people make out in his particular dialect? Henry Rollins commented that English as a second language English is pure bebop. It is jazz. It is amazing to behold. Soak it up. Enjoy it. Understand this language we all share.
I am 1 of his (rex) many fans so I asked him if work for him and if theres an available job. Then he told me about the job opportunities in his other business the SBC. Then asked me if I have experience working in a company. When I said "yes" he offered me the above job. I asked him again if there's vacancy for my friend who recently graduated. So then he answered, "Yes", we will give the below job. Me for the above job and for my friend for the below (blow) job.
To all the people making fun of Manny speak English - shame on you! It is not funny as he not trying to make you laugh, he is communicating as best as he can without using a translator. At least he is trying, you dont need to make a joke of it or laugh st him.
Tito Rex humor is a lot of inside "Filipino" jokes and shares with everyone to enjoy. He's making fun of himself and others but on an entertainment level. Not to take to heart. I can enjoy his style of humor and I take no offense to it. I recommend his "Hella Pinoy" stand up.
I always thought that there was some sort of tension between Filipinos and Mexicans, particularly in boxing. Maybe it's true, maybe it isn't. But I think it's great how the audience (I'm assuming most of which are Mexican/ other Latinos??) was really cool with Rex up there...
filipino ako, and there's nothing wrong with his jokes its very funny......i enjoyed watching it... napaka-sensitive naman yang iba kung makapagcomment...i love the way he said filipinos are the lost latinos of asia,,yes indeed..bec. we colonizd for about 400yrs and the latin language is gone..lol
It was actually the Mexicans who ruled the Philippines for 250 years with the direct order from Spain. When the Mexicans in the Philippines started fighting for independence, the Spaniards didn't like it and regained power, then they ruled the island for almost another 100 years.
Lol I even watched manny's interview and I laughed so hard and I know a lot of Filipino act the same way I did and Seriously I'm not offended by this. Guys it's a joke and take it as a joke. Don't take it seriously. Even Manny pacquiao will laughed about this.
If you ain’t Filipino you won’t get it we can laugh at these jokes but others don’t know we all laugh at it it’s our culture our race we understand Pinay Pride
Thanks for keeping it real Rex...it's only normal for people to get butt hurt over the truth..just remember comedy is about laughing along with you.. Not at you.. Relax people.. It's okay..
honestly, i don't see why people are making such a big deal about it. Seriously, he's on the Lopez show. It's the same comedy but different nationalities. However, I don't see anyone bitching about how he's making mexicans look bad. Some people are just over sensitive or too prideful. I feel like a true filipino would actually relate to these jokes rather than cry about them.
Filipinos are Asians not Latino, I think he is born in the U.S.A. the geography of the Philippines is located in the Orient an Asian Continent. We were colonized by Spain and by the U.S. and also occupied by Japan during WW 2, Spain change the history of the Philippines, some of the dialects are influence and have borrowed words from Spain, even our names are religion are mess up. Filipino race ethnically is Malay and other Asian Countries like Indonesia are our ancestors, Our first National Hero is Lapu-Lapu and he was a Malay who fought the Spanish. We also have Chinese influence. 🇵🇭 🇵🇭
Yes, Filipinos are Asian but to say that Filipinos didn't pick up some Latin (Mexican) culture and blood is actually pretty wrong. Rex is actually part correct. Filpinos need to understand when talking about 'Spanish influence" what they are really talking about is heavy influence of people/culture from Mexico. I will enlighten you here. When Spain colonized the Philippines, the DID NOT sail around Africa and around India towards the PI. The Spaniards landed in the Americas... AND THEN because they were so busy dealing with the other colonies, they had their territory The Vice Royalty of New Spain (Mexico) do ALL of the administration of the Philippines, in other words Spain did NOT rule the Philippines directly from Madrid, they had Mexico City do everything for them. The Alcapulco-Manila Galleon trade was the ONLY way Spain was getting to the PI for most of the 400 years of colonization. You know what that means?! It means that the MAJORITY of the "Spanish" people going to the PI were MOSTLY Mexican born people and then some Central/South American locals from the colonies. The Spanish influence that the PI got was heavily influenced through the people of Mexico NOT Spain. Sure there were some high ranking actual Spaniards in charge who went to the PI, but the majority of sailors going were from the Vice Royalty of Mexico. Not only that, Filipinos were manning the ships back to Mexico for almost 400 years! Both Filipino and Mexican sailors got off the ships and tried to escape the Spanish rule and fled into the country side of the Philippines and Mexico. It is truth that some Mexican blood got mixed in some cities in the Philippines, one of them was Pampanga! Also, in Mexico, Filipino blood was mixed in heavily in the cities of Alcapulco and Colima. The loan words from Spanish also contain words that are native to Mexico NOT Spain (nanay and tatay are words from Nahuatl origin, from Mexico). Speaking of WW2... did you know that the ONLY time Mexico got involved was to send an air squadron to help the Philippines fight off the Japanese!? It's because of the shared history between Mexico-Philippines. Refresh on history : ruclips.net/video/p6Y1_U8YWVk/видео.html
@@polepino This has no proof of whatsoever of the history you read was probably written by a Mexican Historian, Lap-Lapu the Datu of Cebu resisted the and fought the Spaniards before they even set sail in Cebu or even the other Provinces of the Country of the Philippines, Mexican that was send or landed in the Philippines was Probably the indios slaves of the Spaniards and maybe blend in with the Philippine Asian Culture, The Chinese, Malay, Indonesians already influence the Philippines even before the Spaniards was trying to colonized the Philippines, that's why if you know your History the KKK stands for katipunan Kataastasan Kagalang-galang ng mga Anak ng Bayan, A revolutionary secret operations against the Spaniards, that's why there was a war, and when Spain sold the Philippines for a cheap prize to the U.S., also a conflict occurred, That was the first Vietnam War in the Philippines versus the U.S.A. Mexicans were never there during WW 2, since the Philippines was a colony of the U.S.A Filipinos fight side by side with the Americans against the Japanese Imperialist forces, there was never a Mexican presence, the Huk Balahap also a secret organization guerrilla forces also provide help during WW 2 and all over the Provinces of Philippines guerrillas and scouts formed by the American military and defeated the Japanese Imperialist, Do your own research over my research and opinions.... "Filipinos are Malay by race and are Orientals"
In terms of the spoken language, pronouncing the words correctly is a must in order for the recipient (listener) to understand the message. Ever wonder why other languages's alphabets, or more specifically the vowels, are pronounced differently? Spanish vs. English? If someone pronounced the Tagalog word "tabo" the way English vowels are pronounced, would a native Tagalog speaker recognize the word?
also, there's a misconception that the languages of the phils are dialects. a dialect is american english, vs british english vs australian english = all mutually intelligible to each other, therefore 1 language w/ various dialects. bisaya is a language, as is tagalog, ilokano, kapampangan, etc. we have 170 languages in the philippines. they are not mutually intelligible to each other, therefore they are languages. a dialect would be the tagalog spoken in manila compared to batangueno tagalog.
@avatar3554 what are you talking about...Mexicans love Manny...sure they always pull for the Mexican boxers, of course they do, I wouldn't expect any less..But Mexicans that love boxing love Manny because he fights like a Mexican fighter, and they appreciate his ring skills. To top that off he's a class act. He never talk a bunch of crap, when he put Margarito in the hospital he was there to visit him. He's just good for boxing in general.
@ronvalence yes he can in fact talk perfect tagalog. If you haven't noticed this is exactly how ALL comedians work. White people make jokes about whites, blacks toward black etc. it's no different. and he's not just making fun of manny for how he speaks, but towards the entire culture. Deep down inside, and you know it's true, most filipinos do speak that way with the distinctive accent. So if you're seriously offended, well you must be fresh off the boat ;)
Isn't it ironic when some Filipinos are offended by this comedian making jokes about Pacquiao and yet the majority of locals in the Philippines are making fun of him? Also, if they find this comment in wrong grammar, they will correct it. Ok I'm out.
i think he is a huge fan of MANNYS,, he even said he had bragging rights to ''SHOW OFF ''MANNY to his friends,, i do not hitnk he meant any harm, and i think MANNY would giggle too,,,
Filipinos also make fun of Fil-Ams who try to speak Tagalog. But the fun is not meant to offend. The ire is reserved for Fil-Ams who don't even try to speak the language even in the Philippines. If the US has a condescending term like FOB, then the Philippines, has "Amerikanong Hilaw" or worse "Amerikanong Pango."
That was hilarious. Wow, people, they're jokes. If you're offended, then you're wound too tightly. As an African-American married to a filipina (11 years), I've heard plenty of black comedians making fun of black boxers' english (i.e. Mike Tyson, Larry Holmes, Leon Spinks). Rex is not making fun of Filipinos. He's joking about how Manny speaks. Manny is laughing all the way to the bank so just enjoy the jokes. I love watching Manny fight but his post fight interviews ARE hiliarious.
@NamesROverated uhmmm... most Filipinos (Immigrants) in United States. Filipinos in Philippines? Only if they are old and/or on the northern parts (Ilocos Region) of the Philippines. Most Manilenos and Illongos speak like Fil-Ams and Most Visayans interchange e and i in sounds.
@indorock the thing is, he doesn't need to and he doesn't care. he has millions, he doesn't need to speak correct english grammar, accents, etc. there's no really advantage for him to speak good english since he uses his fists not mouth in the ring unless he works as an employee in abroad then yes there's an advantage but when someone has millions already, they don't think how they need to really speak good english since he can buy everything
When an English speaker who has never spoken Tagalog before tries to say the word "tabo", wouldn't it sound funny because it sounds differently? Maybe it's just me, but it sounds pretty hilarious (I've had non-Filipino friends say it). I'm not making fun of anybody, but I'm just trying to explain a perspective from a different angle. Anyway, my whole point to this is, words that belong in a certain language sound comical when spoken in an accent unfamiliar to that language itself.
@indorock he lives in the phil and doesnt need to learn english just to impress anyone... he's a fighter not a talker and he shouldnt know that much english considering where he came from and how he dropped out when he was in elementary
As a "mestizo", (my father is white), i never learned Tagalog. So all the real Filipinos called me a "Fake Filipino".LOL. still makes me laugh. Y sabes que? Los abuellos hablaron espanol. Oh, and a filipina once told me, with a straight face, "I'm 100% PURE Filipino. Still makes me laugh. As Navarrete says, they are MULTICULTURAL. "Chinese Mexicans". funny. great comedian
This wasn't that funny, SBC Packers is still my fave LOL. Audience here seem hostile about this kind of humor though, which I understand. I've been through that kind of treatment when I first moved here (U.S.). It was hurtful, yes, but later I realized that I can actually relate to why they would laugh whenever I pronounce words incorrectly. The way I see it, language isn't just based on word choice and grammar (written language), it's also pronunciation (spoken language).
Wow. Someone is really offended about this? Clueless. Fil-ams..yeah it's true we make fun of our accents. But it's with love. We make fun of the way our parents pronounce words, we make fun of our own culture. Again it's with love. Because we embrace who we are. Yeah I'm born here, but when I eat with a fork and spoon my other Fil-Am friends laugh..they're not making fun of me..they're laughing about how even though we're born and raised here somethings still get passed on.
When he was invited to New York to perform to Filipino events, after the first two words I walked out. Thank you. I’m filipino too. He is not we’ll known anymore Because people tired using all his stories about Filipinos.
@nenabunena oh come on, fob is hardly an insult. Well, I guess this just further proves that you guys can hardly take a joke. And besides, my post is somewhat true, natives or "fobs", generally can't take a joke cause it normally doesnt translate or the humor doesn't tranlate either.
the joke goes well for americans but it's a bit off bec pacquiao is a typical filipino name in the phils. no one would've made fun of him. i had a classmate with a filipino name, but her surname was 'sugatan' & she had a lot of peklat on her legs! yeck! now that would've been made fun of, but not pacquiao. anyway, regardless, love rex!
How come a lot of Pinoy's are worked up in Rex's impersonation of Manny? Everything what he did was true, that's how a Filipino born from the Philippines (a Visayan one) probably from the South of the Philippines would speak english, if someone is not a fluent english speaker that is what you'll hear from them. Geez! 😱
@NamesROverated i agree with your post but your last derogatory comment calling him a fob is out of line. u filams have no pride in yourself & your people, you belittle them calling them names like fobs? u should check out maharlika's video on this issue. he's an american who notices filams denigrating millions of filipinos by calling them fobs from the motherland. most filipinos speak 3-4 languages, how many languages can filams speak? most dont even know what they are. bastos
@1natgeo i understand where you're coming from but you gotta understand that the audience isn't filipino and so his real jokes won't be as funny unless the audience can relate and understand so yeah o.O
The Philippines at on time had the 6th best education rank throughout the world. The teaching of English (hardest to learn) has changed the economy with oversea's workers, Call centers, and Foreign Investments. Erap (Shamed Ex pres.) changed speaking the way English in the Philippines. I hate to say it, but you can tell the educated ones or happy go lucky Filipinos in seconds. My Cousins can speak english when calling for money for load for cell phones. 10 years same Life same place. SHAME
@nenabunena there's a proper place and time to speak and learn a language. mind you, i didn't say he was dumb trying to learn a new language. i said he makes himself look dumb trying to speak it even when he's not ready to. don't try to change what i meant and make me look like the bad guy

Who is not taking a joke in here? Why are you typing this?

Wow. When talking like Manny he actually manages to *look like Manny*. That's some practiced talent right there.
I'm so glad I watched him live in Baguio
Congrats Rex! You've come a looooooooong way from the FIND conferences and sightings in the Philippines!
Love this guy. He even took a picture with my kuya and I.
Rex literally the funniest unsung comedian !
it's funny how he said " well we are Chinese-Chicanos and Malaysian-Chicanos" of Sout East Asia lol
Why he didn't go mainstream is beyond me!
I saw this guy perform a few years ago. Hella funny!
Rex, thanks for shouting out our family on camera!!! Its on our channel!!
The original G pinoy comedian!
IT'S
THE
NUTSHACK
+Portal Freak And before you ask, he was part this show's cast. He's Tito Dick.
Filipino Pride!!😂😂
Hew flew at the San Francisco's Cobbs Comedy Club after this taping and he was off the hook. This was just a small part of a hella... I say hella... funny routine. The other stand-ups were funny ass hell too, but he was the headliner. My gut and jaw were aching after the show.
Love the vibe, the shirt. Mr. Lopez, thank you for giving a fellow Cali man the boost. Our ancestors Mr. Itliong and Mr. Chavez from the Cali fields would have approved:)
Rex, sir, you did it again.
In Manny's defense, how well would most people make out in his particular dialect? Henry Rollins commented that English as a second language English is pure bebop. It is jazz. It is amazing to behold. Soak it up. Enjoy it. Understand this language we all share.
Yeah, thanks man for mentioning my country Malaysia !
Go Rex you are the Man!!!!!
OMG!COMEBACK IN HAWAII AGAIN PLEASE REX YOU SUPER FUNNY!!!!!! LOL
Just watch and try to enjoy the video. I'm Filipino and this was funny as hell.
I am 1 of his (rex) many fans so I asked him if work for him and if theres an available job. Then he told me about the job opportunities in his other business the SBC. Then asked me if I have experience working in a company. When I said "yes" he offered me the above job. I asked him again if there's vacancy for my friend who recently graduated. So then he answered, "Yes", we will give the below job. Me for the above job and for my friend for the below (blow) job.
I just got here because we have an assignment in our 21st Literature 😂 And we need to describe or express our opinions after watching this 😂
To all the people making fun of Manny speak English - shame on you! It is not funny as he not trying to make you laugh, he is communicating as best as he can without using a translator. At least he is trying, you dont need to make a joke of it or laugh st him.

it was just a joke, most of the pinoys off camera are also making fun of Manny's accent.
Uhhh that's Pinoy accent speaking in english duhh why get offended? 😂
"Miss your hilarious jokes, Rex... *You're one o' the very few funniest!* Stay *ultra safe* 💗 !"
[Regards, So.Cal USA🌹!]
u da man REX!!! bring it bak old skool n educate the young filipinos in tru pinoy comedy fashion!! lolol
I always thought that there was some sort of tension between Filipinos and Mexicans, particularly in boxing. Maybe it's true, maybe it isn't. But I think it's great how the audience (I'm assuming most of which are Mexican/ other Latinos??) was really cool with Rex up there...

filipino ako, and there's nothing wrong with his jokes its very funny......i enjoyed watching it...
napaka-sensitive naman yang iba kung makapagcomment...i love the way he said filipinos are the lost latinos of asia,,yes indeed..bec. we colonizd for about 400yrs and the latin language is gone..lol

Filipinos are everyone from white, black, to brown! Chinese, Spaniard, and Malay..... gusto ko ang pinays!

I don't think Manny Pacquiao's English is Freestyle, it's Visayan Accent (Not Illonggo though, they speak different English from most Visayans).
iamrenzi: I concur but stereotypes are so gosh darn funny!
Damn! What's Rex's weight loss plan?! Might finally work on me.

When an English speaker who has never spoken Tagalog before tries to say the word "tabo", wouldn't it sound funny because it sounds differently?
Maybe it's just me, but it sounds pretty hilarious (I've had non-Filipino friends say it).
I'm not making fun of anybody, but I'm just trying to explain a perspective from a different angle.
Anyway, my whole point to this is, words that belong in a certain language sound comical when spoken in an accent unfamiliar to that language itself.
Q: What Is Your Last Name?
A: PakYaw - PakYaw Too Bitch! :D
@indorock he lives in the phil and doesnt need to learn english just to impress anyone... he's a fighter not a talker and he shouldnt know that much english considering where he came from and how he dropped out when he was in elementary
As a "mestizo", (my father is white), i never learned Tagalog. So all the real Filipinos called me a "Fake Filipino".LOL. still makes me laugh. Y sabes que? Los abuellos hablaron espanol. Oh, and a filipina once told me, with a straight face, "I'm 100% PURE Filipino. Still makes me laugh. As Navarrete says, they are MULTICULTURAL. "Chinese Mexicans". funny. great comedian
This wasn't that funny, SBC Packers is still my fave LOL.
Audience here seem hostile about this kind of humor though, which I understand. I've been through that kind of treatment when I first moved here (U.S.). It was hurtful, yes, but later I realized that I can actually relate to why they would laugh whenever I pronounce words incorrectly. The way I see it, language isn't just based on word choice and grammar (written language), it's also pronunciation (spoken language).
Wow. Someone is really offended about this? Clueless. Fil-ams..yeah it's true we make fun of our accents. But it's with love. We make fun of the way our parents pronounce words, we make fun of our own culture. Again it's with love. Because we embrace who we are. Yeah I'm born here, but when I eat with a fork and spoon my other Fil-Am friends laugh..they're not making fun of me..they're laughing about how even though we're born and raised here somethings still get passed on.
When he was invited to New York to perform to Filipino events, after the first two words I walked out. Thank you. I’m filipino too.
He is not we’ll known anymore
Because people tired using all his stories about Filipinos.
@nenabunena oh come on, fob is hardly an insult. Well, I guess this just further proves that you guys can hardly take a joke. And besides, my post is somewhat true, natives or "fobs", generally can't take a joke cause it normally doesnt translate or the humor doesn't tranlate either.
the joke goes well for americans but it's a bit off bec pacquiao is a typical filipino name in the phils. no one would've made fun of him. i had a classmate with a filipino name, but her surname was 'sugatan' & she had a lot of peklat on her legs! yeck! now that would've been made fun of, but not pacquiao. anyway, regardless, love rex!
How come a lot of Pinoy's are worked up in Rex's impersonation of Manny? Everything what he did was true, that's how a Filipino born from the Philippines (a Visayan one) probably from the South of the Philippines would speak english, if someone is not a fluent english speaker that is what you'll hear from them. Geez! 😱
@NamesROverated i agree with your post but your last derogatory comment calling him a fob is out of line. u filams have no pride in yourself & your people, you belittle them calling them names like fobs? u should check out maharlika's video on this issue. he's an american who notices filams denigrating millions of filipinos by calling them fobs from the motherland. most filipinos speak 3-4 languages, how many languages can filams speak? most dont even know what they are. bastos
@skorpyonayts1169 lol "dog eat dog" that could easily be turned into a filipino joke there too xD
@1natgeo i understand where you're coming from but you gotta understand that the audience isn't filipino and so his real jokes won't be as funny unless the audience can relate and understand so yeah o.O
Good act, just need to clean it up a bit. Funny stuff!
@avatar3554 It's all good, We're Latino too :3
Mandalas bay where the shooting took place
The Philippines at on time had the 6th best education rank throughout the world. The teaching of English (hardest to learn) has changed the economy with oversea's workers, Call centers, and Foreign Investments. Erap (Shamed Ex pres.) changed speaking the way English in the Philippines. I hate to say it, but you can tell the educated ones or happy go lucky Filipinos in seconds. My Cousins can speak english when calling for money for load for cell phones. 10 years same Life same place. SHAME
awwwww the fakyaws...errrr i mean the filipinos lol
@nenabunena there's a proper place and time to speak and learn a language. mind you, i didn't say he was dumb trying to learn a new language. i said he makes himself look dumb trying to speak it even when he's not ready to. don't try to change what i meant and make me look like the bad guy
