Samoan Comedian (Chief Sielu Avea) 1995 Polynesian Cultural Center, Laie, Oahu, Hawaii

Ойын-сауық

My recording (hi-8) and experience of the first "Samoan Comedian" in the summer of 1995 at the Polynesian Cultural Center located in Laie, Oahu, Hawaii. For more information on Chief Sielu and his remarkable story, look for him on Wikipedia. I should also add that he starred in a "short" 20 minute movie aptly entitled "Chief" that was shown at the Sundance festival and is now available on a popular streaming service that rhymes with "dime."
Enable closed-captioning to understand everything being said. If you are patient and watch to the end, some wonderfully touching and hilarious moments are revealed.

I think it would be amazing if the sweet Japanese woman in this video sees this some day! Her interaction with Chief Sielu is, in my opinion, the biggest part of what makes this video a joy to watch (and share) again and again.

    We found him at Chief’s Luau in Oahu this past Summer. Always wondered what happened to him after he left PCC. He went on and started his own Luau company called Chief’s Luau. He’s still pretty funny as a host. Go check him out when in Oahu.

    Chief is actually a pretty good role model. He's strong, and physically intimidating, but well spoken, worldly and intelligent. Confident, but very friendly. He takes charge of the room, but also not afraid to have fun and look silly himself. He's basically doing a comedy show and teaching people survival skills at the same time, with jokes that are timeless and funny to people from very different cultures like America and Japan. Dude is a real Chad.

As tid bit of info, Kap (the guy you see climbing the tree at the end) is now the new chief and is hilarious. Also an artist and a painter selling his art at the cultural center.

In our local area we have a comedian who is funny even if he speaks a normal everyday conversation with a bit of a stutter, we called him a born and gifted comedian, his every word was funny, but if his joke was done by others its more like a cringe, that is why the comedian is an important role as their material really sums up their joke and their delivery is on point.

    He's really really good in his timing as well as his delivery lol he's in this, say, neutral territory, when it comes to humor, where it's generally understandable by anybody from various cultural origins. Plus the voice cracks 😆 it adds to his delivery. Most of all, it's beautiful when people still preserve the traditions of their ancestors despite advancing into modernity in a very fast pace
