Dean Edwards is one of the most popular and richest Comedian who was born on July 30, 1970 in New York, New York, United States. Known for his Saturday Night Live impressions of Wayne Brady, Michael Jackson, and other celebrities, this popular comedian also had a career as a voice actor, contributing to both Robotomy and Celebrity Deathmatch.

After Eddie Murphy was unable to reprise his voice acting role as the donkey in Shrek, Edwards took over the role, impersonating Murphy’s voice in the 2010 Halloween special Scared Shrekless.

Edwards joined the cast of Saturday Night Live in 2001. He developed several impressions, including Michael Jackson, Wayne Brady, Chris Tucker, Don Cheadle, Colin Powell, Serena Williams, Nipsey Russell, Grace Jones, Randy Jackson, Redman, Denzel Washington, and Billy Ocean. Despite his penchant for impressions, Edwards didn’t get much screen time in his brief tenure on the show. He left after the show’s 28th season (2003), citing creative differences.

In the 2010 Halloween special Scared Shrekless, he provided the voice of Donkey after Eddie Murphy declined; as Donkey, Edwards impersonated Murphy’s vocal characterisation. Soon, Edwards got replaced himself when Eddie Murphy returned to play Donkey in the 2010 Christmas special Donkey’s Christmas Shrektacular.

He was born and raised in New York. Before becoming a full-time comedian, he attended college and served for six years in the United States Army Reserves.
