About Roy ‘Chubby’ Brown
Roy Chubby Brown (born Royston Vasey; 3 February 1945) is an English stand-up comedian whose act consists of blue humour, a free speaking style and lack of concern for political correctness.Prior to his entertainment career, Vasey had a rough upbringing and left home at the age of fourteen, moving from job to job, eventually ending up imprisoned. Once released, he began his performing career alongside his cousins as a drummer in their band The Pipelines, who mainly featured at working men's clubs. When the group split, Vasey formed a comedy duo with a fellow ex-Pipelines bandmate. The duo named themselves 'Alcock and Brown', as they shared the same surnames of the pilots of the first transatlantic flight, therefore wearing goggles during their performance. The group eventually disbanded, with Vasey continuing as a comedic act by himself, retaining the goggles.
In 1972, Vasey's manager asked him whether he would try performing blue comedy, to which Vasey agreed. His initial performances as 'Roy "Chubby" Brown' were met with offended attendees, mainly Vasey being assaulted and sworn at. He eventually began to perform at larger venues, with his breakthrough coming in 1990, as Universal Pictures signed him to a home video contract, where he would release concerts annually every Christmas, eventually going on to sell 250,000 copies. They would also release U.F.O. in 1993, a film about Vasey's character being kidnapped by aliens. In 1995, his parody of Living Next Door to Alice hit the UK charts. From 1999, he starred in The League of Gentlemen as the town's mayor, of which the (fictional) town was named 'Royston Vasey'.
He released his most recent home release in 2017, and continues to perform concerts in the United Kingdom, and occasionally overseas at British tourist destinations. As well as his stand-up performances, Vasey also releases music albums.
