Story & Lesson Highlights with Roxxy Haze

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Roxxy Haze. Check out our conversation below.

Hi Roxxy, thank you so much for joining us today. We’re thrilled to learn more about your journey, values and what you are currently working on. Let’s start with an ice breaker: What do the first 90 minutes of your day look like?
It’s usually my plan-and-reset time. I want to set the day up for productivity. I’ll check emails and stretch, maybe do a little yoga, make coffee, and go over my schedule. On weekends the start of my day is honestly watching anime, especially if something new just dropped, or hanging out and heading to the gym. I try to get my workout in early on weekdays too to avoid crowds.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I’m Roxxy Haze, originally from Houston, Texas and now based in Los Angeles. I’m a multi-hyphenate entertainer. I’ve been doing stand-up since 2013—performing consistently since 2013—and I’ve been creating content since then as well. I’m doing stand-up comedy, anime-inspired and Toonami-inspired rap, gaming streams, cosplay, content creation, and I self-publish books. My life and my work mix nostalgia and fun with real heart, and I like performing in different formats—comedy sets, live music, and book events—so audiences get more than one side of me.

I’ve appeared on All Def, OWN, Amazon Prime, BET, and BET+’s The Hospital where I was also a writer, and I’m featured on BET’s Churchy (Season 2). As a writer I’ve contributed to Comedy Central’s Bring Back Laughs and development with Nickelodeon, and I’ve worked with comedians and creators like Tony Baker, KevOnStage, and Tahir Moore. Mine is not a story of quick fame, but of slowly building, learning myself, and building a real community.

I’ve been lucky to collaborate with brands I genuinely love—NASA, Crunchyroll, DC Comics, Fortnite, Mattel, Bandai Namco, Audible, and more—creating digital series in the gaming and animation space with All Def Gaming, GWB, and live programming at conventions such as DreamCon, BlerdCon, Anime Impulse, LA Comic Con, and Pasadena Comic Con. I’m big on community and helping other creatives grow, which is a huge part of why I wrote my book—so people coming up after me don’t have to guess in the dark.

I’m also part of a gaming duo with my friend Ms. Game Queen called 2 Player Mode (aka 2PM), and that partnership is amazing—we’ve done panels, interviews, and interactive shows together, bringing a true odd-couple energy to the gaming and con space. What makes our work special is that it isn’t just about followers, it’s about connection and creating rooms where intelligence and play get to live at the same table.

Right now I’m on tour with the Everywhere, Everything Tour, performing comedy, music, and promoting my self-published book “Half Famous” while finishing the Toonami/FLCL-style album “Never Knows Best.” I’m recording new long-form comedy clips, building new merch, routing more 2026 dates, and I’m working on filming a comedy special in March 2026.

What I represent is fun and magic and doing what you want—figuring adulthood out in public, without losing the feeling of being a grateful, laughing inner child, and bringing as many people with me as I can. I believe collaboration matters, hard work pays off, and community is the real currency. I’m getting to live my dreams slowly, not overnight, and I want my story and my work to be proof that there’s room for heart and laughter in every lane I step into.

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What did you believe about yourself as a child that you no longer believe?
I used to believe I wasn’t enough. I was always told I was annoying or too loud so I started shrinking myself. I was also told I was ugly and people would say hurtful things that stuck with me. I never tried to be in the spotlight because so many people said I never would. I stayed behind the scenes. I was a crew member or helped sew clothing for theater casts but I wouldn’t audition because I was scared to be in front of people. As I got older I realized performing, singing, and telling jokes was what I actually wanted and those things I was warned about being too loud or a lot have helped me today. Now I get paid to be loud and annoying and that’s kind of hilarious. The upside is I not only learned myself I also gained a deep appreciation for the people in the background. They are the heart and soul of production and I will never stop being grateful for everyone who helps make things happen.

When you were sad or scared as a child, what helped?
What helped me was TV and books. I grew up in a single parent home. My father worked a lot and my mother was never around and I would go months without seeing her. We were left home a lot so I always looked to TV and movies and found solace in those characters. In my head I would pretend to be brave. I would be Matilda and be brave or I would be Goku and be strong. The hurtful things people said about me, especially being told I was ugly, made those stories feel like a safe place when real life didn’t feel kind. It sounds sad, but I learned a lot through everything I watched and read. Loving books and childhood movies helped me become who I am, and learning about different worlds helped me as a writer and a content creator. All those things I consumed also helped me relate to so many people. Whenever I meet someone who has seen or read the same thing, we are instantly connected to the best parts of our childhood, and I will always be grateful for the characters and the stories that kept me company when I needed it most.

Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? Whose ideas do you rely on most that aren’t your own?
I rely on my brother the most. He’s been my comedy writing partner for years. A lot of our content ideas come from the stuff we watched growing up, and he’s really good at reminding me what’s funny about me. I run jokes by him and we often come up with new ones just talking on the phone. He’s also a rapper, Frankee Gold, so I can run bars by him too, and those background conversations have shaped a lot of my comedy and my music.

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: If you laid down your name, role, and possessions—what would remain?
Me. I’m not defined by any of this. I love what I do and I love getting to perform and chase my dreams, but that is not the sum of me. I grew up lacking funds, to put it nicely, and I’ve lived through a lot of loss. I lost things in a fire as a child and I’ve been homeless, so possessions aren’t what I value most. What matters more is being a good person, spending time with family and loved ones, and becoming the best human I can be. Everything else can disappear and I would still want to remain someone kind, grateful, and fully present.
