Shelby Chong

Comedian Shelby Chong is known as Tommy Chong's favorite co-star on the big screen and in live stage performances. Fans remember her as the sexy "French Fifi" in Things Are Tough All Over (1982), the "Princess" in Cheech & Chong's the Corsican Brothers (1984), and the blond body builder that Cheech got choked up over in Nice Dreams (1981). She has associate producer credits from several Cheech & Chong movies. Shelby went on to appear in several other feature films, television, and theater, including Tripwire (1989), The Spirit of '76 (1990), Far Out Man (1990) and "General Hospital". She has been seen on HBO, Comedy Central, and The Howard Stern Show (1990). She stepped onto the comedy stage in 1996 during Chong's world tour as a show opener and has toured every year since. In January 2000, the official announcement was made that Tommy Chong had replaced Cheech with a new comedy partner - the duo "Tommy Chong & Shelby" was born.
