Culture Cruise
Challenge 2: Who Am I?

Last week on the English, baby! Culture Cruise, the contestants had to find people to give them dancing lessons.

Now that they know how to dance like Americans, Captain Jeff asks each contestant to become a famous American person and see if people on the street can guess who it is. Get ready to see Hiromi pretend to be a 10-year-old boy and Ahmed pretend to be a young and troubled mother!

Discussion

As soon as the contestants mention skateboarding and animation, people guess that they're talking about Bart Simpson.

When Tommy is talking about Brad Pitt, it's a wonder that the man he's talking to doesn't guess Bart Simpson again because Tommy mentions "yellow hair." Hair that looks yellow is actually called blonde.

It takes the people on the street a moment to guess the third impersonation, Britney Spears. Ahmed says he's "the stupidest girl in the USA." Harsh! But it works. The woman guesses who he is.

The teams report back to Captain Jeff. Team Madonna gets there first again. Captain Jeff adds up the points and says that Team Tiger has 43 points and Team Madonna has 66.

Ahmed says the women have an unfair advantage because people are more eager to talk to them. Captain Jeff suggests that he make himself look prettier. You'll have to stop by next week to see if Ahmed and Team Tiger do any better at the third challenge, Find the Landmark.

Can you do any impersonations?
