The final show is done and we hate to say it but good ridden's, he wasn't that funny anyway. Performing at a sold out MGM Grand, Las Vegas August 2, 2012, legendary comedian-turned-author, actor, and all-around media conglomerate Steve Harvey called it quits — from live stand-up performances.
Harvey revealed that it was the support of his father during a childhood incident made all the difference in the world. Thus, it stands to reason that one of Harvey’s recurring refrains during his three decades worth of shows.
Harvey’s life off stage reflects this same commitment in a multiplicity of ways, not the least of which is his legendary work with mentoring programs across the U.S. And from that, and other such work, Harvey will still be going full speed ahead. Just don’t expect to see him on stage live, cracking jokes.
Harvey, author of the national best-selling book-turned-movie, Act Like a Woman, Think Like a Man,shared that he wrote the book as advice for his daughters. Harvey has been giving straight talk advice to his audience for 27-years — and not only advice on relationships.
“Seeing him up there was nostalgic,” said Brandi Harvey, commenting on her father’s last show. “I can remember as a child going to see him; my sister and I use to watch my dad perform live, the ups and downs, before he became such a success.”
“I just want to thank everybody for 27 years of love and support and God willing I’ll do 27 more, it just won’t be at this. But I really just want to thank everyone!”, Steve expressed at the close of his last performance.
Don't worry there is still plenty of Steve Harvey to go around, with his books, movies, and radio show he settling in the new phase of his life quite $$$$$ fine.
