About
Mel Jones is an energetic MC, an award nominated comedian, award nominated radio producer and presenter, a writer, director and all-round vibrant entertainer. Her career started taking flight when she was fondly received at the Spier Amphitheatre only 6 short weeks after doing her very first open mic slot. Since then, you may have heard her on KFM as co-presenter of the breakfast show, seen her on SABC3's Comedy Showcase, the Phat Joe show, the King Size Comedy Tour, the Blacks Only Comedy Show, Mind The Gap, The Heavyweight Comedy Jam, Kings & Queens of Comedy, to name but a few, on TV including Comedy Central, Showmax, SABC3 as well as a small role in a local soap opera on Etv. She is also hugely popular as a corporate comedian and MC. Mel also gives back to her community and doing so has earned her a title as one of 12 ‘Mitchell’s Plain Heroes’. These people were selected as individuals who uplift the community and inspire young people who grow up in similar surroundings.
