March 8, 2026Southside Bent is absolutely hilarious and extremely professional. Not only is he a great comedian, but he’s also an incredible speaker who clearly knows his craft. He actually married my wife and I, and the way he handled everything showed just how versatile and talented he is. From comedy to hosting to officiating, he brings a great energy and professionalism to everything he does. If you get the chance to see him perform or work with him in any capacity, I highly recommend it.

His style is bold yet thoughtful, mixing spiritual truth with street-smart wit. Expect laughs that make you think, and a vibe that feels like wisdom wrapped in wild fun.
“Benton Henderson: Life is my stage, and it’s been one blessed comedy.”
For 4 years, Benton has been lighting up rooms with high-energy humor rooted in spiritual truth and real-life experiences. Before comedy, He's been a superhero in the mortgage industry and during his time serving 4 years in the greatest military branch on earth THE US NAVY. He’s been Bouncer of the Year three times in a ROW, a Southern chef, barber, Sports and LIFE FIGHT coach, and even an ordained minister performing weddings and funerals. Add Christian rapper and Top General in prison ministry for over a decade to the mix, and you’ve got a man who’s truly seen it all. A pillar of the community, Benton brings laughter with a purpose—because when your life story sounds like a sitcom, the punchlines write themselves.
