Masood Boomgaard

Self-help Singh is the alter ego of international comedian Masood Boomgaard. Described as a comedic alternative life coach and de-motivational speaker, Self-help Singh first appeared to Boomgaard in a vision after he fell and hit his head.

Boomgaard has since been sharing the “common sense wisdom” and de-motivational teachings of Self-help Singh with millions of people on the internet. The Self-help Singh live show is a hilarious yet thought-provoking juxtaposition of stand-up comedy, parody, and motivational speaking.

During his decade-long full-time professional comedy career, Boomgaard has performed in New York, London, Dubai and — during lockdown — in his father's garage. He lives in South Africa with his cat... for now.
