Stealing the Spotlight: Charles Alexis Guenard - Assumption University's Hilarious Headliner

Bonjour, mes amis! On this joyous occasion of French Independence Day, we have a tale of laughter, mischief, and a touch of magic that will surely tickle your funny bone.

In the world of entertainment, where laughter reigns supreme and magic dances through the air, one name has risen to prominence—Charles Alexis Guenard, better known as Charles the French. This charismatic visionary, born in the enchanting city of Lyon to a French father and a Thai mother, has captivated audiences with his unique blend of comedy, magic, and unbridled creativity. Charles's started his stand-up comedy career at The Comedy Club Bangkok and continues spreading laughter and joy to comedy enthusiasts worldwide with Comedy Club Touring. 

From an early age, it was evident that Charles possessed a flair for the extraordinary. At 18 years old, he embarked on a life-changing journey, leaving behind his native France to embrace the vibrant tapestry of Thailand. Little did he know that this cultural fusion would become the bedrock of his artistic expression and pave the way for international acclaim.

With a mischievous glint in his eye and a joie de vivre (joy of life) in his heart, Charles embarked on a collaboration with his comedic partner, Tada Piriyanupong, that would change the course of his career, creating a satirical video titled "How the iPhone 7 Should Have Been Announced." In a stroke of brilliance, Charles and Tada reimagined Apple's esteemed CEO, Tim Cook, as an "angry CEO who only wants to sell his products." The result? Viral success like no other, as millions flocked to witness their irreverent take on the tech giant's grandiose presentations. Recently, Tada and Charles brought home the top award on “Magic Wars” by Workpoint TV, crafting a mesmerizing magical show that dazzled audiences and judges, earning them the top prize and the title of “Best Magical Duo in Thailand”.

With an impressive digital footprint boasting over 150 million views on Facebook and 400 million views on YouTube, Charles the French has over 600 million views combined on all social media platforms! Apart from his online fame, Charles is an accomplished performer with over 2,000 shows performed worldwide.

As he embarks on a whirlwind tour throughout Asia, Charles the French has become more than just a comedic maestro. He has become a brand ambassador extraordinaire for his beloved alma mater, Assumption University. His tireless efforts and unwavering dedication have transformed him into a living testament to the university's commitment to excellence and creative brilliance.

For a front-row seat to this extraordinary tale, visit the Charles the French YouTube Channel. After the success of his comedy magic show, a new show “Singing Funny” has hit the stage, including songs such as the soon-to-be-famous "Here Comes The Secret", and ‘The Viral Song', or his not-quite-romantic "Perfect Love Song." Get ready to laugh and sing along! Charles can't sing well, but he can sing funny.

So, as we celebrate the spirit of France on this remarkable day, let us raise our glasses in a toast to Charles Alexis Guenard—comedy extraordinaire, magician extraordinaire, and all-around extraordinary entertainer. Prepare yourselves for a journey that will make you laugh, gasp, and question the very fabric of reality.
