True or Lie: I faked an American accent to interview Lady Gaga, AJ Odudu - BBC 

That probable would have ruined the 'joke'

Exactly!

Maybe they did but it was cut? But I was waiting for it as well

Surprised and disappointed

That's pretty cool man.

Slide into the DMS lol

Because like Sindhu said, you're bright!

With or without heels and a beehive on her head?

Most 'Brits' hate that. Very close to being called 'Bro' 😬

Plus her hieght was all wrong. Gaga is a tiny thing

i mean to be fair to AJ, lady gaga does usually wear like 6 inch heels everywhere she goes

Would be a tad different if all Rob discussed was Port Talbot. (But I'll add that I enjoyed the chat about Blackburn)

The simple ones are always a winner - look at Taskmaster (simple concept, but it must be a hell of a job coming up with the tasks!) or Qi, etc. Put smart/funny/entertaining people in front of a camera and let them get on with it ;-)

Mel B? I thought it might have been her as I'm not that familiar with these celebrity people.

@a A and scary spice was a judge on America's got Talent for years so clearly the accent is not really a problem there

Similar accent but Mel B is from Leeds so Yorkshire. Also Mel is in her late 40s now

The further north you go the more honest they get in my experience. (Unbiased Yorkshireman speaking ;-) )

Thanks for the thesis Paul :p

I wouldn't use the word "appease". As a non-native speaker, I can assure you that some accents are much easier to understand than others. I have less and less trouble with this issue as I experience more and more different accents (e.g., by watching shows like wilty), but it is a problem for many people whose first language is not English. Also, speaking about disability and discrimination, not everybody is equally apt in learning foreign languages. English became the "common tongue", we are the ones who have to make the big effort to learn your language. Do you really think it is fair to ask us to also get used to all kinds of accents, as well? It is far more reasonable to ask the English speaker to adjust a little and go easy on the accent.

Did you actually watch the clip? It wasn't true, this is the entire premise of the show...

£80 for a house? Crazy times 😂

Different?

@@_436F6C6D In a way but... Different would be a bit simple explanation

@Jack Yes, really. Thank you, you've made my day

Can you tell the difference between AJ and someone like David?

I’m assuming AJ has a very strong accent because she does kinda sound different, but not enough for me to not be able to understand her. She sounds similar to Mel B to me. Lee, David, and Rob all sound the same to me and if I met them on the street I would assume it was just a generic English accent. The only UK accents that are easily identifiable to a Canadian ear are Scottish (a really strong one like Kevin Bridges is very difficult to understand) and Irish which is actually very similar to a Canadian accent!

@@ejboy9 Same. I'm American

How does one shit in an accent?

incredibly means not credible.... is lady gaga that smart that it is not credible ? .. maybe, because i sure don't believe it :))

Let me get this straight... You're such an overly-defensive Ga Ga fan that you're accusing someone who is playing a game, the object of which is literally to deceive your opponents, of being incredibly false? Isn't that the entire point of the game? Also, I would think being 'vocal' and 'conscious' is the very minimum one might expect from an interviewee. Who wants to interview an unconscious mute person?

@@emdiar6588 ikr, they deffo dont get the show. I'd have to assume they arent from britain and don't understand our humour or something. also the way they said 'that one lady' came off just a little rude, in trying to defend their stan celebrity they fully disrespected another.

@@emdiar6588 you guys know she's not talking about the storyteller, right? She's talking about the woman who said Gaga is thick. I don't know or care whether she is or not, but I'd hardly say that insulting random celebrities is part of the point of the game

@@GayBennyyy She said 'that one lady' because nobody here in the states knows who she is. She's not a celebrity here.

The brewery really was knocked down

It's not that the conversation about things being knocked down was a lie. The lie was that Aj had faked an American accent.

No they dont, theyre's almost as many different accents in England as there are in America. You cant tell me a caveman,(Geordie) accent sounds the same as say Cockney,. RP, or Glaswegian.

@@treyjetson5320 Trey, are you from the U. S. or England?

@@Jacob_._Roberts I'm a trendy American that enjoys British panel shows.

@@treyjetson5320 Thank you, Trey.

Oop, watch out everybody, Mikey's emerged from the basement to tell us all that he's offended about the presence of nonwhite people on a panel show. Let's take a moment to thank him for that incredibly insightful and valuable information

He didn't mention anyone's race, you did. Good virtue signal and Middle Class snark though.
