Summary

Scott “Carrot Top” Thompson has been making audiences around the world laugh for more than three decades. After building a following on the comedy circuit that made people laugh nearly every weekend, his first television appearance was on “Comic Strip Live” in 1991. Things changed for Carrot Top forever in 1992 with his first appearance on “The Tonight Show.” That appearance exposed his unique brand of comedy to every home in America. After an impressive 31 appearances, Carrot Top had the distinct honor of appearing on the very last episode of “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.” Carrot Top’s other credits include hundreds of television programs including The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson,” “Late Night With Conan O’Brien,” “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” “Chelsea Lately,” “Last Comic Standing,” “Glee,” “Family Guy” and “The Ellen Degeneres Show.” Carrot top’s shows are a spectacle worthy of most arena rock bands and features lights, music, fog machines, and confetti cannons – all in addition to his incredible trunks full of props.
