Photos from Aboriginal Day LIVE 2012 – on APTN

Candy was a smash hit as one of the hosts on Aboriginal Day Live – National LIVE Televised music festival, celebrating National Aboriginal Day – live from Winnipeg and from Regina. Candy is Canada’s only First Nation, gay woman,stand-up comedian that has her own national prime time TV series, The Candy Show, that airs Thursday nights on APTN & APTNHD, as well as many other times throughout the week. Season 3 is currently in post-production, and will air later this winter.
On set of Candy’s show, The Candy Show, she conducts all her interviews of the Musical guests, in her giant big pink bed. APTN had a replica built of this big pink bed and a smaller stage built for Candy specifically to interview musicians on Aboriginal day LIVE – including, Inez and Joey Stylez.
WE have attached a handful of pictures from the night’s event. Please check out APTN & APTN HD to catch the replay of Aboriginal Day live broadcast – they usually replay it several times until next years broadcast.
Candy is the ultimate Canadian Entertainer – her very unique comedy style is not found on Yuk Yuk’s stage, or other smaller comedy stages. Candy Palmater’s stand up comedy is one of a kind, unique and absolutely hilariously funny! Young or older, everyone LOVES Candy. My dare – try not to laugh, come on , I dare you.
You can find Candy on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and of course YouTube!
Check her her awesome videos, some comedy, some rants, some make-up, some book reviews. if you have something you want Candy to rant about, please leave us a message through the website and let us know.adl2012-1adl2012-4adl2012-3adl2012-2adl2012-6adl2012-13adl2012-8forks-5-winnipegadl2012-15
