About Mpho Popps
Comedian, actor, businessman, cool dad extraordinaire, Mpho Popps Modikoane is more than what the eyes meet.
His journey began like anyone with a “big dream”, in the casting line on the national comedy search tv show “So You Think You Are Funny”. This platform gave him the audience he needed to put himself out there as a serious comic.
With a great local and global appeal, Popps packed venues and line-ups from his debut one man show “Exhibit A”, his annual “Mpho Popps Birthday Comedy Special”, “Blacks Only”, club tours and festivals where he solidified his mark on the industry by leaving sore abs all throughout the country. This had then earned him a nomination for the first ever Annual Comics Choices Awards as best newcomer where he went on to win the award for “Break Through Act” the following year.
