Paul Foot (comedian)
Paul Foot (born 24 December 1973) is an English comedian. He commands a significant cult following called ''The Guild of Connoisseurs''. Foot is known for his musings, rants, 'disturbances' and apparent aversion to pop culture. The ''Daily Express'' likened Foot to "a rare exotic bird", whilst six national newspapers including the ''The Independent'' and ''The Age'' have declared him to be "a comedy genius".
==Biography==
Foot was born and raised in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire and has a younger brother. He studied mathematics at Merton College, Oxford. It was during his studies he first started performing stand-up. As of 2011 Foot has refused to discuss his years at Oxford or former pursuits as a mathematics student.〔()〕 Graduating from Oxford in 1995, Foot was head-hunted by a computer software company in the run-up to the dot-com bubble, however he loathed the industry: "I had to read manuals on HTML and just write websites from scratch. None of us really knew what we were doing".〔()〕 He started to pursue a career in comedy by doing open mic slots at various venues, in the hope that showbusiness would allow him to meet his idol Ella Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald died a few days after this decision was made but Foot determined to continue pursuit of a career in comedy.〔 He is openly gay. He has been described as "a little bit vegetarian", but has said that occasionally he does return to eating meat due to nutrition-related health issues.〔
