George Lopez has done just about everything that a comedian could hope to cross off of his bucket list. He’s been the star of two primetime sitcoms — the long running “George Lopez” on ABC and “Saint George” on FX. He’s had several stand-up specials on HBO and Showtime, and he received a Grammy nomination for his album Tall, Dark & Chicano in 2010. He’s performed and provided voices for characters in major motion pictures such as Balls of Fury, the critically acclaimed Bread and Roses and both Smurfs movies. He’s even hosted his own late-night talk show. So what’s next for the guy? Politics. Seriously. He said on “The Today Show” last month that he’s actually considering a run for Mayor of Los Angeles, California. Before he becomes the next Arnold Schwarzenegger (although we imagine that’s not a very high bar to meet), you can catch the local stop of his “Listen to My Face” tour at the Verizon Theatre (1001 Performance Place, Grand Prairie) at 8 p.m. Saturday. Tickets are between $39.50 and $59.50 at verizontheatre.com.
