Gabriel Iglesias Im Not Fat Im Fluffy

Gabriel Iglesias is an American actor and comedian who is best known for his loud aloha shirts, funny voices and animated story telling. Gabriel was born in San Diego, California and raised by his mother. His real name on his birth certificate is "Gabriel Iglecias" with a "C", and not a "S". The reason for the misspelling was because his father was not there for his birth so his mother thought that this was a funny way to get back at him. Because of his large frame, he is the self-proclaimed "Fluffy Man"; he says of himself, "I'm not fat, I'm fluffy." The nickname is derived from his own joke about what he calls the "Five Levels of Fatness." The five levels are (from lightest to heaviest) "Big," "Healthy," "Husky," "Fluffy," and "DAMN!" A sixth level, dubbed "OH HELL NO!", was added later.
