Jamie Kennedy performed to a packed house Wednesday night at Capt. Brien’s Off the Hook Comedy Club.

He poked fun at the fact that some people exclaim that they’re getting their picture taken with “Jamie Foxx” after shows.

He made sound effects of his father having his first birds and bees talk with him and performed several characters from different countries, like a police officer or a “bobby” in Britain — who politely chased down a bloke who might have had too much tea.

He said he often had a hard time not speaking back to people in their own accents. He performed an Indian cashier asking him for $27.50 in a similar voice to Apu on The Simpsons.

“It was awesome,” Marc Castro, of Marco Island, said about all three performers Wednesday night — Nery Saenz, Will-E Robo (who made fun of women who pluck their eyebrows so that they look shocked all the time) and Kennedy.

“Although he tends to stick to one genre, he was a pioneer in stand-up comedy — bringing the white boy into the hood,” Castro, a fan who has seen Kennedy perform live several times, said of the producer, writer, actor and comedian.

Kennedy co-wrote and starred in Malibu’s Most Wanted (2003) and plays B-Rad (Brad Gluckman) who is a wannabe gangsta in Malibu, Calif., while his father, Bill (Ryan O’Neal) is running for governor and doesn’t want his son to appear with him on the front pages of the papers.

“Though it won’t win any NAACP awards, Malibu’s Most Wanted is a nice forward thrust toward the played-out gangsta/mall-kid culture that too many suburban kids subscribe to. Since he’s lived with the character for a couple of years now, Jamie Kennedy has the B-Rad moves down in every detail,” wrote Brian Orndorf in a review of Malibu’s Most Wanted on the Web site www.celebritywonder.com.

Kennedy began his Wednesday night show with references to his B-Rad moves and likened Malibu to Marco Island with signature hand gestures. He commented on his visit to The Esplanade: “Yea, you got some B-Rads here,” he said. After a visit to one shop they told him to step off to the Smoothie King.
