Suhaimi Yusof (born 1969) is a Singaporean actor, comedian, entertainer and radio personality, known for playing exaggerated Malay stereotype characters and for his spontaneity.
Yusof was born in 1969, in Jalan Kampung Tengah, Punggol, Singapore, the seventh of nine children. Yusof's mother, Fatimah Yusof (née Adenan, born 1940), was a homemaker and his father, Yusof Bujang, was a technician. The family moved to Hougang when Yusof was sixteen. Yusof was initially shy by nature, but soon realised his potential as an actor in secondary school, when his teacher selected him to perform a skit for a Teachers' Day concert. Initially panicking, he finally came up with a character named "Montfort Jackson", a spoof of American recording artist Michael Jackson, and received many laughs from his peers during his performance.
At an inter-school Malay debate competition, Yusof greatly impressed Zakiah Halim, a Malay radio veteran, with his performance. Following that, Halim offered Yusof a part-time job as a host on the radio programme Majalah Remaja, which was aimed at teens. After his studies and the completion of his compulsory national service, Yusof joined the Singapore Broadcasting Corporation (SBC) (now MediaCorp) as a full-time radio presenter, and soon he was hosting the morning radio show. Thereafter, SBC's television department offered him his first onscreen gig, co-hosting Potret Keluarga, a weekly family programme. Shortly after, he received another hosting job, this time on Hiburan Minggu Ini, an entertainment programme. Yusof was offered the role of maintenance guy Sulaiman Yusof in the sitcom Living with Lydia, starring alongside Hong Kong comedian Lydia Shum Din-Ha. He accepted the job, and his character proved a hit with viewers of the sitcom. It would be Yusof's first role in English television.
