DEVEN ON FILM/TV:
You've seen her characters on Harland Williams' Enter At Your Own Risk and CBC Comics!, Spy TV, Punched-Up with Tom Green, A & E's The Incurable Collector, and as the model-turned airline stewardess on Current TV.

Her two cameos with Guest House Films are: Phoenix and Back Soon where "fans will get to see Deven herself in a small but hilarious role as Trixie a girl out for vengeance." Trixie is a knife welding, lazy-eyed, brothel-trained prostitute.

In the reality-show spoof Matrimonium (Philly Fest Favorite) Deven's bizarrely observant TV show hostess role, Andre Genous, was lauded with:
"The real joy for me was to see a completely original character pop out in Deven Green's game show hostess. I guarantee you haven't come across this person in any other movie. In a film that was largely improv she delivers a daring and innovative creation. If there isn't an award for that there should be."

I'm judging you right now.

DEVEN'S VOICE:
Yes, Deven Green is the voice and writer behind the "Welcome To My ... Comedy Parodies." Covering 1980s culture including fashion, diet, make-up, and relationships as well as her insidious reworking of PSA's, Deven has certainly finger-blasted the zeitgeist out of the American lexicon.

You've also heard her characters on Howard Stern and Chicago's Mancow show in which she enraged callers to spew:
"you lady, are disgusting," "I wish you dead" and, "I hope you get hit by a bullet." Kudos Deven.

From podcasts like Doctor Floyd's Radio Adventures to the MySpace animated series, The Cubes, Deven has also done ADR voices for films such as Music Within, Knight to F4, Her Minor Thing and Just Friends. You have heard her dulcimer tones on commercials like Disney's Aladdin / Beauty and the Beast / Little Mermaid, Finlandia University, Ford Trucks and Northern Insurance. Listen

See the results of Deven working with deconstructivist artist Toban Nichols. In this appropriation, deconstruction and reformat of Vogue’s Book of Etiquette and Good Manners, 1969, (an opprobrium). Deven's voice brilliantly guides the viewer on this San Fran installation show now showing at Adobe Books' Backroom Gallery - San Fran.

Deven was the first 'moviefone' voice in Canada for Cineplex Odeon theatre listings.

GUEST DEVEN:

You can't shut her up or down.

Deven has been been interviewed on the Derek & Romaine Show in New York, The Stephanie Miller show on Clear Channel and The Jay Thomas Show on XM/Sirius Radio. She has been an invited guest comedy teacher for new to professional performer groups.

She shines during her regular guest spots on Mark and Fausto's Feast of Fun podcast (4 time People's Choice and Best GBLT winner!). From holiday to Oscar specials to updating The Ugly Ducking to talking about bunny buttons it is evident that the love between these friends continues long after the interview is over.

Feast of Fun

DEVEN'S WORDS:
Yes, she is one of a kind -- so are the word combinations she uses. Her comedy parodies are infectious, quotable and give Deven a distinct yet inscrutable voice in comedy. This rare written interview for Outrate Magazine proves that Deven writes just how she talks: Outrate Interview

Deven has a solid comedy writing background from shows like Friday Night Fix to sketch comedy shows in both Toronto (Watch Thin Women Eat, God Not Another Xmas with My Family) and Los Angeles (Sketch and The City, Best of Sketch and Beat This!).

Deven is the go-to speech writer for the Starkey Foundation creating personalized speeches for Marlee Matlin, Donny Osmond, Sharon Osbourne, Garth Brooks, Arnold Palmer, Larry King, Norm Crosby, Major League Baseball and Leslie Neilson.

You've seen alternative pin-up model and artist Trevor Wayne's images before. Working on his latest mini-mag "Milkmen and Money Makers" his pop-art images with be captioned by none other than Deven Green. Adult's Only

DEVEN'S INSIDER:
I bought our dear friend Nelson Aspen's book and what did I find on page 188:

"...My talented comedienne friend, Deven Green
(a cult-favourite for her brilliantly executed series of videos on YouTube;
in fact I'm proud that one in which I guest-starred in a self-parody, debuted at number 63 of all comedy videos; watch out Will Ferrell)..."

Lots of behind-the-scenes secrets!

I told you I was a pro figure skater. I recreated each jump, spin, footwork and fall sound for both ICE PRINCESS and BLADES OF GLORY. Look for my name in the credits.

I was also the youngest, in my home province, to receive triple gold-medal status.

Check out the short video of how skating is done for film:

"The caramel corn of your mind streams through fields of toe-nail refuse and dreams of beehive hair-do's. There's no sweeter treat than those meanderings that originated in your feet and sprang forth into the world unabated from the broken down refrigerator corners of your own personal universe."

How could I resist being the cover girl for the Recycler magazine.

Jealous much?

Joel said one day I may work my way up to the Penny Saver.

One man's trash is another man's wife.

There is nothing like performing in Vegas. We did week-long shows for Comdex and got on the cover of the Las Vegas newspaper.

We have performed many times in Vegas for private events like Hair Wars, corporate shows at the Venetian and Coverville 500!

Vegas is excellent when you spend other people's money.

As the host/interviewer of the stripper-fest 'Trash T.V.' it was one of the first projects Joel and I worked on together.

Joel was playing a purveyor of porn.

I'm sure this video won't come back to haunt us.

The following is a recap of the premiere episode of SPY TV which was the highest rated episode ever. I did 3 episodes.

"The final segment involved a husband, Nate, getting revenge on his wife, Keisha, for racking up over $1000 in psychic hotline calls. Keisha is a self-professed fanatic for anything supernatural, and they managed to get her to go to their “psychic,” Mistress Deven. Nate had provided her with information ahead of time so Keisha would fully believe in Deven’s powers. Then, Deven tells Keisha that she can feel the power in Keisha as well. She asks Keisha to use the power to read her, and then agrees with everything Keisha says. Then she urges Keisha to use her mental abilities to move a candle sitting on a wall ledge behind Devin. Unbeknownst to Keisha, there is a Spy TV operative behind the wall, ready to move various objects with a powerful magnet. Keisha looks very serious, like she’s straining herself to move the candle. Suddenly, it moves. She keeps moving that and other items, talking about how the effort is “draining” her. I laughed. Keisha tries to leave but Deven brings her back to try to get rid of the negative energy. She has Keisha wear a ridiculous hat and say magic words while the lights flicker and items fly off shelves. Keisha again tries to run, but Deven brings her back, “You’re…on…Spy…TV.”

The following is what happened in episode 2 of SPY TV! The pizza delivery man was not seriously injured but all major news stations picked up the story 'HOW FAR WILL REALITY TV GO?'

I played a patient dying in a seedy hotel-room surgery (you are looking at pig skin and intestines; it's not the real inside of my flat tummy okay?).
Every half hour we ordered pizza to urgently enlist a delivery guy to help the 'doctors.' Very funny idea until one of the pizza guys actually jumped out of the second-story hotel-room window thinking he was going to be operated on. For some reason I started laughing.
