Kameron Evan "Kam" Patterson, born April 10, 1999, is an American stand-up comedian and actor who joined the cast of Saturday Night Live for season 51. He first gained attention for his appearances on the Kill Tony stand-up comedy podcast.

Patterson grew up in Orlando, Florida. While attending Orlo Vista Elementary, his second grade teacher allowed him to tell jokes in front of class as a reward for finishing his schoolwork. Before pursuing comedy, he was unsure about his future and considered firefighting, becoming inspired to perform while working at Foot Locker and receiving motivation from his co-workers and father. In 2021, he began performing comedy sets at open mics in Orlando. In 2022, he was invited to open for comedian Jason Banks, then moved to Austin, Texas, where his appearances on Kill Tony dramatically increased his profile.

Patterson's "I Like Rocks" joke became a viral fan-favorite moment on Kill Tony and a recurring routine during his appearances on the show and in his stand-up. He performed with Kill Tony at Madison Square Garden in 2024 and toured with the show in 2025 as one of four comedians called "Killers of Kill Tony." In October 2025, he joined the cast of the 51st season of Saturday Night Live, making his first appearance on Weekend Update during his debut episode, with memorable turns playing "Black Snape" and Michael Irvin. In 2026, he appeared in the comedy film Busboys and co-stars alongside SNL castmates Marcello Hernandez and Ben Marshall in the upcoming Netflix comedy film 72 Hours starring Kevin Hart.
