Best Personality Ever

Ali is the best personality on television. I live in America and only found out about him from a friend but once I saw him I couldn't stop laughing. This guy is hilarious and would take America by storm if his show ever aired here. I recommend that everyone watches this guy at least once and I'll guarantee that you'll be coming for more.
