Matt Walsh

Matt is a 55-year-old actor and comedian originally from Chicago, Illinois. He is best known for his work as Mike McLintock in Veep, a role which earned him not one but two Emmy nominations.

Alongside his successful TV career, Matt has also starred in some of Hollywood’s biggest comedy flicks including Ted, The Hangover, and Ghostbusters (2016). Matt has also held smaller roles in the likes of Elf and Step Brothers and taken on serious films such as 2018’s Widows. 

Fortune Feimster

Fortune Feimster – whose first name is actually Emily – is a 39-year-old comedian and actress.

You’ll most likely recognise Fortune for her role as Colette on The Mindy Project from 2015 to 2017, but Fortune had a successful comedy career before her acting took off.

Fortune made her debut on Last Comic Standing in 2010 and then was one of the Round Table Co-hosts on Chelsea Lately from 2013 to 2014.

I’m on the new season of Nailed It! (Season 4…episode 2). It’s a 90’s episode 😃 I could sit beside Nicole Byer all day long. She makes me laugh so hard. Jacques is so sweet. And I know these treats on the show are supposed to taste bad but I liked them 😂

Adam Scott

Any comedy movie fan will instantly recognise Adam Scott from his role as Derek in The Hangover and as Ben Wyatt in Parks and Rec.

But this Hollywood actor has movie he’s not all laughs in more recent roles opposite Reese Witherspoon in TV drama Big Little Lies. 

Gabby Douglas

Gabby Douglas has achieved more than many could hope to in their lifetime at the age of just 24.

She has three Olympic gold medals under her belt and is the 2015 World all-around silver medalist. Definitely a good choice to judge the sporting cakes.
