Cori Gonzalez-Macuer: Promo Girls Aren’t Models

Cori Gonzalez-Macuer presents
Promo Girls Aren’t Models
While some people do anything for their 15 minutes of fame, Cori will do anything to take the piss out of them.

In a world obsessed with fame and all things superficial, one man is keeping it real. After spending the last couple of years working in the entertainment industry, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer has been witness to the lengths some people will take in order to be famous. Whether it’s promo girls sleeping with rugby league players, ex NZ Idol competitors having public holidays named after them or former sports starts milking their fame for all it’s worth, celebrity has a way of making any idiot think they can make it to the big time. Promo Girls Aren’t Models will expose the seedier side of New Zealand’s celebrity culture.

Billy T Award winning comedian, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer, returns to the New Zealand International Comedy Festival with a brand new show. The last year has seen him perform all over the country as well as being a writer and presenter on C4’s award winning Jono’s New Show (Best Entertainment Show – 2008 Qantas Film and TV Awards). With more live stand-up and TV projects in the works, Promo Girls Aren’t Models will be a great taster of what Cori has in store for the comedy public in the months to come.

Comedy Festival sell-out in 2008

Proudly supported by The Rock (The radio station. Not the wrestler. Although he seems like he would support the arts).
