KENAN THOMPSON

Kenan Thompson is in his fifth season on "Saturday Night Live."


Thompson has made numerous contributions to the show including impressions of Bill Cosby, Rev. Al Sharpton and Star Jones, and entertained us as DJ Dynasty Handbag, the scathingly fierce co-host of "Club Traxxx."


A native of Atlanta, Georgia, Thompson made his television debut as a member of Nickelodeon's all-kid sketch comedy series, "All That." He and his partner, Kel Mitchell, debuted in a spin-off show "Kenan and Kel" in 1996. Thompson also had a recurring role on the WB's "Felicity."


He recently starred opposite Samuel L. Jackson in the buzzed about "Snakes on a Plane" and will next be seen in the comedy "Wieners." Thompson's feature film credits include "Fat Albert," "D2: The Mighty Ducks," "Good Burger" "Rocky & Bullwinkle," "Heavyweights" with Ben Stiller, "The Boss' Daughter" with Ashton Kutcher, and "Barbershop 2."


Thompson lives in Los Angeles and New York. His birthday is May 10.
