FRAN CAPO
The World's Fastest Talking Woman
Dubbed "fast talker extraordinaire" by the Associated Press, comedienne Fran Capo doesn't mind if you call her "Super-Mouth." In fact, she's proud of it! Fran Capo is in The Guinness Book of World Records as the fastest talking female in the world - speaking at a rate of 603.32 words per minute.
"There are definite advantages to talking fast," says Fran Capo. "I save money on my phone bill, can order fast food in a snap, plus have talked my way out of more than one speeding ticket. Besides, growing up and living in New York, you have to talk fast!"
Fran Capo's fast talking, boundless energy, and unusual way of looking at life have earned her the distinct reputation as the funniest fast-talking New Yorker. Fran Capo has appeared worldwide on over 75 television shows worldwide including Good Morning America, Larry King Live, Geraldo, Rolanda, The Statler Brothers, and Entertainment Tonight. Capo also has been a featured guest on over 150 radio programs.
As a comedienne, Fran Capo has performed at major comedy clubs throughout the United States from Dangerfield's in New York to The Comedy Stop at The Trop in Las Vegas. Fran Capo also has appeared nationally on the college entertainment circuit, plus toured with rap artists The Fat Boys and LL CoolJ performing her original rap recording Rappin Mae.
On the corporate entertainment circuit, Fran Capo is sought after not only as an impostor speaker, but also as a seminar presenter. Her topics include: HUMOR - How to get what you want with a smile; MOTIVATION - How to use your inner strength to overcome self-defeating behavior; and PUBLICITY - How to grab the public spotlight without spending a penny on advertising. Fran Capo's corporate clients include Bank of America, Beneficial Finance, Citibank, Motorola, National Reinsurance, and New York Life.
Fran Capo also has achieved national recognition thanks to her numerous commercials. Capo's fast talking has earned her TV commercials for Nissan, Pitney Bowes, New York Life, Pudgies Chicken, EZ Mop, and USA Network. Radio listeners have heard Fran Capo fast talk her way through commercials for MCI, Bank of America, GE Capital, CNBC-TV, Flexon Eyeglasses, and 1-800-FLOWERS. She also has appeared in several films.
Several authors have profiled Fran Capo in show business books including, Comic Lives by Betsy Borns, Tricks of The Trade byJerry Dunn, and Revolutionary Laughter by Roz Warren. Fran Capo also has written two books: Humor in Business Speaking and How To Get Publicity Without A Publicist.
Fran Capo's most recent project is Fran's Fast Fractured Fairy Tales, an audio collection of ten classics from The Three Little Pigs to Rumplestiltskin. Told intelligibly at the speed of sound, Fran Capo intertwines her character voices, fast talking, and comedic ability to give these memorable stories a clever and humorous twist.
What's next for Fran Capo? "Maybe I'll do an audio cassette of War and Peace," she says.
