Sommore has appeared on a host of shows including touring with and hosting Russell Simmons' Def Comedy Jam, BET's Live From L.A., and Showtime At The Apollo, and her quick verbal wit has added a new dimension to stand-up comedy and generates much demand nationwide.

In 1995, her classic stand-up act earned her the Richard Pryor Award for Comic of the Year. As the winner of this prestigious award, she was selected as the first female host of BET's Comic View. She hosted the show for an entire year, which brought her into millions of homes daily. Also in that year, over 20 million viewers got to see Sommore's brilliant stand-up comedy firsthand when Oprah Winfrey handpicked her to appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show.

In 2000, she was one of the few comedians chosen to be a part of the highly successful Queens of Comedy Tour. The tour garnered Sommore a wider fan base and got her registered in Guinness' Book of World Records when she performed to an audience of over 50,000 people in Atlanta, GA; no other comedian has ever accomplished that. Other noteworthy accomplishments for Sommore include several appearances on The Hughleys, and an appearance on the HBO Special, SNAPS. Rapper/Actor Busta Rhymes even penned a song after her, entitled. "Gimme Sommore."
