FUIYOH!
Nigel Ng is a Malaysian comedian best known as Uncle Roger, the loud, loving, MSG-pilled internet character he created in 2020 after a particularly bad BBC fried rice video. The character has since racked up 27 million followers across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Threads, and a few Guinness World Records along the way.
His debut cookbook, Don't Mess Up Your Rice, lands November 3, 2026 — 70 authentic Asian recipes with a foreword by Gordon Ramsay. Pre-order it here.
Off-screen, he runs two restaurant concepts: Kawan by Uncle Roger in London, and FUIYOH! It's Uncle Roger in Malaysia.
In 2024 Nigel finished his first world stand-up tour. In total, he sold over 115,000 tickets across 4 continents establishing himself as a global voice in stand-up comedy. His stand-up special "The HAIYAA Special" is currently streaming on Hulu.
Nigel is currently developing a TV sitcom with Disney, a feature film and also an animated project based on his character — Uncle Roger.
