Sean Samadi better known by his stage name Sean Banan is a Swedish comedian and musician of Iranian origin. His family immigrated to Sweden when he was just 2 years old and resided in Gothenburg. Sean Samadi took lessons in rumba, flamenco, rock, cha-cha-cha, ballet and street dance.[1] He then worked as a choreographer and dance instructor. In 2006, he appeared on TV3's now defunct dance program Floor Filler. He became an immediate internet phenomenon after appearing in an interview in 2007 ater answering some questions about his preferences and said he preferred "rumpa" (buttocks) to breasts.[2] "Rumpa" became a catch phrase he would use in many of his future gigs.

He played a traveling reporter in the 2010 comedy television show Cirkus Möller that aired on TV4.[3] The same year he took part in the in Kanal 5's program Djävulsrallyt in its third series.
