Like A Mother

I first saw Cocoa Brown in Tyler Perry’s Single Mom’s Club, in which she plays a down-and-out mom with a husband and son in jail and struggling to find child care while she waited tables at the local diner. In real life, Cocoa is a very real single mom of a 3-year-old, and she is killing it in her career as a standup comic and actress. Roles include Jennifer on Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse series on TBS, and the upcoming miniseries American Crime Story, in which Cocoa plays Queen Bee, a pivotal juror in the OJ Simpson trial. In this hilarious interview, Cocoa shares her story about: Leaving corporate life to pursue standup comedy Breaking into Hollywood Dealing with an unfaithful husband Raising a son without an involved father Being a single mom with the help of her tribe of five amazing gay men Dating as a single mom Her standup album, One Funny Momma   Loving this podcast?
