Angela Hoover was a semi-finalist (top 20) on season 8 of NBC’s America’s Got Talent where she performed numerous celebrity impressions (Celine Dion, Sharon Osbourne, Kourtney Kardashian) garnering the praise of Howie Mandel. “You are the best celebrity impressionist working today.”
Shortly after AGT, Amy Schumer saw some tape of Angela playing a faking infomercial host on a project with comedian Tig Notaro, and offered her a role on Inside Amy Schumer. Angela has guest-starred on the Emmy Award winning show Casual, as well as Insecure, Lucifer, Just Roll with It, and was recurring on Disney’s Walk the Prank for 3 seasons.
Angela’s love for observing and imitating other people started in early childhood where every few years her family would move to a new state, (PA, NJ, TX MI, CA) picking up the mannerisms of whoever she was around. Her late father used to say as a little girl she was perfectly content playing on her own, observing other people. So basically, she was a 3-year-old stalker.
Angela’s impression roster includes over 40 celebrity impressions, including Kris Jenner, Martha Stewart, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Fergie singing the national anthem, Khloe Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and multiple Real Housewives. To see all of these and more visit her Instagram, @angelahoovercomedy.
As a working mother of 2, Angela has performed for numerous women’s/mom organizations across the country. (Check out what clients had to say on her RAVES page.)
Hoover wrote and performed 2 SOLD OUT one-woman shows at the Lex and the Comedy Central Stage at the Hudson in Los Angeles about her family’s move to Las Vegas during the housing bubble.
She is currently co-starring in “Fake News: A Trump Story” on Amazon Prime playing 5 characters including Melania Trump, Ivanka Trump, Sarah Huckabee and Kellyanne Conway.
