George Lopez is a successful Mexican-American comedian and actor with his own late-night talk show on TBS. But his most outstanding talent is an understanding of the nuances of race relations. “When white people get E. coli, the whole world fucking stops. ‘I have E. coli. I couldn’t go to Pilates, because I had the squirts. I’m so hot, and I’m depleted,’ ” he says in imitation. How did they get E. coli in the first place? Lopez has a theory: Talk shit about Mexican immigrants, and they will take the produce they pick, rub it on their taints, and ship it to Taco Bell. And he has a specific message for Latinas too: Stop over-plucking your eyebrows. Overflowing with equal parts snark and advice, Lopez will perform at Seminole Hard Rock.
