Melissa Villaseñor

Melissa Villaseñor broke barriers by becoming the first-ever Latina cast member of "Saturday Night Live." A comedic impressions expert, she got her start as a semifinalist on "America’s Got Talent." Some of Melissa’s most memorable SNL impressions include Owen Wilson, Lady Gaga, and Dolly Parton.

An accomplished voice actor, she has voiced characters on several television shows including Nickelodeon’s "OK K.O.!" and "Rock, Paper, Scissors," and in films "Toy Story 4" and "Wreck It Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks the Internet," for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. Melissa was a guest on Jerry Seinfeld’s "Comedians in Cars Ge ng Coffee," and can be seen in "Barry," "Crashing," and "Awkwafina is Nora From Queens," to name a few.

Her multi-hyphenate talents range even further. Melissa hosted the 2021 Independent Spirit Awards, published a self-help journal ‘Whoops, I’m Awesome,’ recorded two music albums, had a Netflix special, and creates fine art.

Some of Melissa’s acknowledgements include Forbes 30 Under 30, Rolling Stone’s 50 Funniest People Right Now, and CNN’s Women in Comedy.
