Fábio Porchat (born July 1, 1983) is a Brazilian actor, humorist, comedian, television host and writer.
Before entering the world of the arts, Porchat studied Administration at ESPM in São Paulo, but decided to put studies in the background to focus on acting career. He moved to Rio de Janeiro and enrolled in the drama course at CAL - Casa de Artes das Laranjeiras. His TV career started when he went to the "Programa do Jô" in 2002, to present a parody of the sitcom "Os Normais" and then was invited for auditions for TV Globo.
In 2005, alongside the comedian Paulo Gustavo, Porchat took the stage first with a piece of his own, "Infraturas". The following year, the actor was recognized for participating in the first group of stand up comedy from Brazil, "Comédia em Pé". Porchat was in the show until 2011 and soon spawned another hit with the solo show "Fora do Normal".
Porchat's career took off with the comedy group Porta dos Fundos' YouTube videos in 2012, alongside João Vicente de Castro, Antonio Pedro Tabet, Gregório Duvivier and Ian SBF, where he participates in the creative team, screenplay and acting. In little more than six months of the project, the canal had reached the milestone of 30 million views.
In 2013 Porchat declared in an interview that he is an atheist.
