Rita Brent is an award-winning comedian, musician, and military veteran whose talents were lovingly shaped by her mother, singer-pianist Dr. Angela Weathersby, in the Baptist churches of Jackson, Mississippi. Before taking the entertainment world by storm, Rita served her country as a drummer and sergeant in the 41st Army Band, then built a celebrated broadcasting career — from the halls of Jackson State University, to a beloved host and producer at Mississippi Public Broadcasting, to her current role as a weekly contributor on the Rickey Smiley Morning Show.
A true force on the standup comedy stage, Rita has graced the screens of Comedy Central, truTV, Circle TV, and CNN. She tours regularly with comedy giants like Cedric the Entertainer, Rickey Smiley, and many more. Her pen is just as powerful as her punchlines — she’s a three-time Writers Guild Award nominee whose writing credits include the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards, the People’s Choice Awards, GRAMMYs MusiCares, and The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
Blending comedy, music, and activism with unmistakable flair, her viral songs like, “Kamala,” “Can You Rock Me Like a Pothole,” and “Do the Hoochie Daddy” have become fan favorites. She also specializes in writing and performing parodies that bring levity to serious issues, amassing millions of views on social media.
Rita’s lifelong dream became reality in January 2025 with the launch of “Late Night with Rita Brent,” which was picked up to air on FOX40 and saw high ratings and viewership in its first showing on air. In April 2026, “Late Night with Rita Brent” received its first nomination for a Southeast Emmy Award. A proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated, Rita Brent is a singular talent — comedian, musician, writer, veteran, and now talk show host. She shines as a dynamic voice of joy, culture, and purpose, and she’s only just getting started.
