Bruno Salomone was born an only child in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, to a Flemish mother and Sicilian father. His mother was a seamstress, and his father was an astrology-obsessed plumber. Salomone described himself as shy in school, but he grew his confidence by jokingly imitating teachers to his friends. He acquired a baccalauréat from Lycée Georges Brassens in the early 1990s. Unable to become a veterinarian, he began composing sketches he performed at various café-théâtres. He also performed at Euro Disney for two years wearing the costume of Goofy. He was featured in a 1995 promotional VHS for the launch of the original PlayStation. In 1996, he was on Graines de star, a French talent show where he achieved notoriety for his absurdist humor.

Salomone began regularly performing at the Le Carré Blanc café-théâtre in 1998. He quickly joined the Nous Ç Nous comedy trope, with Éric Collado, Manu Joucla, Éric Massot, and Jean Dujardin. They would frequent Patrick Sébastien's France 2 show, Fiesta. After appearing on the comedy show Farce Attaque with Dujardin, he subsequentially began a solo career in the early 2000s.
