15 Favorite Funnymen

Chris Rock

He's the comedian with the most Oprah Show appearances in our 25-year history, but that's not all: Chris Rock is also the person Oprah called "the funniest guy in America."

He's had many laugh-out-loud moments on The Oprah Show, but one staff favorite was his take on the hardships of marriage. "Marriage is so tough, Nelson Mandela got a divorce," Chris said on April 15, 2004. "He spent 27 years in a South African prison—beaten and tortured. Made to eat horrible food. For 27 years! He spent six months with his wife and said, 'I can't take it!'"
