Bio
Milonakis has a growth condition that gives him the outward appearance and voice of an adolescent boy. In his high school years at John Jay High School in Cross River, New York, he would use comedy as a means to cope with incessant bullying. "Humor is a great defense mechanism," says Milonakis. "If you're a serious, fat, young-looking kid, you're not going to be the most popular guy in high school."

A lifelong comedy fan with dreams of pursuing a career as a comedian, Milonakis began dabbling in comedy while working at his tech support job at a Manhattan accounting firm in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In his free time he began taking comedy classes at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York City and eventually started gaining attention on the internet for the homemade sketches he posted on his website angrynakedpat.com.

Milonakis' fame began as an Internet phenomenon after he released home webcam recordings of freestyle raps|freestyle rhyming, humor videos, and short films. Some of these include "Crispy New Freestyle", "Cuppy", and "The Super Bowl Is Gay." Comedian Jimmy Kimmel later recruited him for regular appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on television from 2003 to 2004.

Milonakis starred in his own MTV television series, The Andy Milonakis Show, which lasted three seasons between 2005 and 2007.

Milonakis appeared in the movie Waiting... in 2005 and its sequel in 2009. He has also appeared in movies such as Who's Your Caddy? and Extreme Movie.
