Comedian
Chris Tucker returns to The Pearl inside Palms Casino Resort on May 24, 2014 at 8 p.m. Tickets start at
$45, plus any additional service fees.
Chris
Tucker is best known for his role of Detective James Carter in the “Rush Hour”
film series. Starting his career as a stand up comedian, Tucker’s bold sense of
humor landed him a spot on “Def Comedy Jam” where he frequently performed in
the 1990s.
The
buzz that Tucker garnered from his many appearances as a stand up helped open
doors in the film industry. Following his film debut in 1994’s “House Party 3,”
Tucker achieved ‘cult classic’ status as Smokey in the stoner comedy “Friday.”
Tucker’s next big movie role was in the avant-garde film “The Fifth Element.”
Tucker’s
film career reached soaring heights as the star of the “Rush Hour” blockbuster
film series. The original, along with two sequels, grossed more than $500
million in the U.S. The success of the films enabled Tucker to negotiate a
salary of $25 million, making him one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood
for “Rush Hour 3.”
In
2013, Tucker enjoyed the buzz from a well-received performance opposite
Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro in the David O. Russell
directed film “Silver Linings Playbook.” Tucker continues to tour year after
year performing stand-up comedy around the world.
