DeeOne Sets GWR for Longest Stand-Up Comedy
Popular Nigerian comedian and reality TV star DeeOne has completed his attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest stand-up comedy performance by an individual.
The comedian began his 52-hour marathon performance at 12 a.m. on October 2 and wrapped up in the early hours of Saturday, October 4, 2025.
Speaking after the event, DeeOne said the record-breaking attempt was meant to inspire Nigerian youths and dreamers to aim high.
“No goal is too high to achieve,” he declared.
The event took place at Pallazzo in Ikeja, Lagos State, and drew support from several Nigerian celebrities, including Pamilerin, Acapella, FunnyBone, Uche Maduagwu, Husband Material, EmmaOhMaGod, K-Solo, Constance Owoyemi, Akinolu Jekins, and Gbenga Adeyinka the 1st, among others.
DeeOne’s 52-hour and 42-minute performance is now subject to official verification by Guinness World Records.
