Tedros "Teddy" Teclebrhan (born September 1, 1983, in Asmara, Eritrea) is a German-Eritrean comedian, actor, musician, musical theater performer, and web video producer. He rose to fame under his stage name, Teddy Comedy. The trademark of his "ethno-comedy" style is a blend of the Swabian dialect and *Kiezdeutsch* (urban vernacular).

He grew up in Belsen, a district of Mössingen near Tübingen.

Also in 2009, he made his musical theater debut in *Hairspray*, in which he played the role of Seaweed J. Stubbs. He gained wider recognition in 2011 through a YouTube video and appearances on the show *TV total*. That same year, he won the *TVLab* competition on the channel ZDFneo. In 2012, he launched his own show, *Teddy’s Show*, in which he portrays various fictional characters such as Antoine Burtz, Percy, and Carlos. Since 2012, Teclebrhan has been touring Germany, Austria, and Switzerland with his live stage shows. In the film *Halbe Brüder*, he played a leading role alongside Fahri Yardım and Sido. In 2019, he co-hosted the German Film Awards (*Deutscher Filmpreis*) together with Désirée Nosbusch. He also hosted the ProSieben show *1:30* and served as a member of the jury for the program *Famemaker*.
