Jiaoying Summers is a comedy powerhouse on a rapid rise blending fearless, dark humor with a deeply personal and refreshingly global perspective. Born in China and now based in Los Angeles, she turns cultural clashes, immigrant identity, and motherhood into razor-sharp comedy that resonates across continents. With over 1 billion views online and a loyal fanbase of 4+ million followers, Jiaoying is a digital juggernaut whose content regularly goes viral—most notably her “Uber Karen” sketch and her irreverent takes on English names by roasting their meaning in Chinese.
Jiaoying made history as the first Chinese comedian to headline the iconic Apollo Theater in 2023 in New York City. She was also inducted into the Asian Hall of Fame, cementing her place as a cultural force. Jiaoying is the host of the hit podcast Tiger Mom (MILF), where her magnetic personality shines as she connects with fans and guests on a more personal level. She is currently on her international tour, “Jiaoying: What Specie Are You?”, having just wrapped a 27-show, 20-day run across 9 cities throughout Asia and Australia—all sold out, she is now onto her US leg of the tour that runs through the end of the year, hitting all the major markets.
Whether on stage, online, at home as a mom, or CEO of Summers Group, Jiaoying brings an unfiltered, modern, and global comedic voice that resonates with Gen Z & Boomers alike. Her bold, fearless comedy—blending immigrant identity, dark humor, and viral social commentary—has made her a digital phenomenon and a can’t-miss performer.
