Famous Maori alert!

 Jermaine Clement! Raised by his Maori mother, Clement is now a famous actor, comedian and musician.
In the late 90s, Jermaine teamed up with Taika Cohen, also known as Taika Waititi, whose father is a Maori of Te Whānau-ā-Apanui. The two formed the comedy duo called the Humourbeasts. In 2004, the pair toured New Zealand with their show called "The Untold Tales of the Maui", which rewrote the traditional Maori tales of the Māui.  

 
Nowadays, Jermaine is greater known as one half of the popular musical comedy duo Flight of the Conchords, along with Bret McKenzie. They are simply hilarious.

Here's a clip from their t.v. show to give you a little hint of what they're about:
