Comedian and Host/Personality, B.D. Freeman has quickly become one of the most recognized faces in 'Pop Culture' entertainment on television. It's his uncanny ability to mine original comedy from the culture of American film, television, music, politics and people that has served to make him a fan favorite. But it's his natural charm and easy going style of delivery that has distinguished him from his contemporaries. Freeman is enjoying starring on Vh1's highly successful "The Greatest" series as well as VH1's newly re-booted "I Love The..." series. Over the past few years Freeman has honed his 'Pop Culture' comedy skills to a fine point while starring on shows such as VH1's Undateable and VH1's five part series, "100 Most Shocking Music Moments" as well as VH1's "The Great Debate." In "100 Most Shocking Music Moments" Freeman covered the most hilarious, unbelievable moments in music pop culture, and in "The Great Debate" Freeman delivered the final word on the most intense pop culture debates and questions of all time. Freeman also starred on VH1's four part series "Black to the Future," which aired continuously throughout the month of February 2009 on VH1. "Black to the Future" was created by the people who brought you VH1's highly successful "I Love The..." series. Told from an African American perspective from stars such as Freeman, Common, Jesse Jackson, Nick Cannon, and Marlin Wayans, "Black To The Future" gave viewers a giant dose of the music, movies, TV shows, products, fashions, fads, trends, scandals and major events that Black folks brought to the table from the 1970's till today. Freeman's talent as a quick-witted, fast, funny Host was highlighted in his role as Co-Host of the popular entertainment news series, "In the Cutz." As Host, Freeman provided viewers with an insider's look at happenings from all walks of entertainment including awards shows, red carpet premieres, insider parties and on-the-set interviews with stars of upcoming film and television projects. Freeman put his comedic skills to work by writing and performing his very own segment "My Take with B.D. Freeman" which featured his hilarious monologues that touched on a variety of topics each episode. "In the Cutz" was syndicated across 160 million homes nationwide. Freeman has entertained on several national television programs engaging the audience with his magnetic personality and gut-wrenching laughs. He has appeared on the Reelz Channel's series, "What I Learned About ___ from the Movies," and on "CD USA," DIRECTV's original series, which gave music fans a full hour of live music from today's hottest artists. He also emerged as a crowd favorite through his participation as a celebrity panelist on the "Greg Behrendt Show" and was featured across episodes for G4TV's "Filter" a countdown show highlighting topics that range from music and movies to TV and sports, examined from a man's perspective. Freeman's versatility is evident in the transition to his role on The N Network's "Degrassi: The Next Generation." The show featured him as Mr. Ellis, a funky and down to earth science teacher. Freeman easily embraced the character and the opportunity to move beyond his comedic persona and into a dramatic role. He proudly endorsed the messages and ideals of the show, and his performance brought a fresh and unique personality to an already amazing cast.

B.D. Freeman at an event for Stomp the Yard (2007)

Whatever you want to do in your life, you can achieve it. No matter what it is you can find a way to make it happen.

The truth is, all I&#39;ve ever REALLY wanted is to be the Host of my own
show! When I achieve that, I&#39;ll have achieved my lifelong dream!

I grew up watching Johnny Carson and Jay Leno and that was always the
brass ring for me, I&#39;d sneak up in the middle of the night to go sit
and watch Johnny Carson as a kid. I didn&#39;t even understand half the
jokes.

I can count the amount of lines I had on Mad TV on two hands! It taught
me a lot about how the shows work and how to carry myself in front of
the camera and get the jokes across. It was a good education.
