The Multilingual Gibberish Girl

- TWO WEEKS AGO, OUR NEXT GUEST POSTED A VIDEO OF HERSELF SPEAKING GIBBERISH IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES. YOU HEARD ME. TODAY THAT VIDEO HAS MORE THAN 10 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE. TAKE A LOOK. - [speaking indistinct gibberish] I TELL--I KEEL IN MY BONES. DUMB THINGS, INNIT? IT'S LIKE A MIRACULOUSLY MARBLEIZING FELT PEN. LIKE A ORDINARY SENTENCE OF A MARINATING FOLLOW ROW. - ALL THE WAY FROM FINLAND, PLEASE WELCOME SARA FORSBERG. [cheers and applause] HOW ARE YOU? [cheers and applause] WELL, SARA, SO YOU LIVE IN FINLAND NOW OR HAVE YOU MOVED HERE SINCE? - NO, I LIVE IN FINLAND STILL. - STILL. AND WHAT'S--WHERE-- WHERE IN FINLAND? - IT'S THIS TINY TOWN CALLED PIETARSAARI. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TRY TO PRONOUNCE THAT. - PIETARSAARI. - YEAH, EXACTLY. AND, YEAH, WE'VE BEEN MOVING AROUND QUITE A BIT. LIKE, WHEN I WAS A KID, WE LIVED IN TEXAS AND WE LIVED IN ENGLAND AND THEN WE CAME BACK TO FINLAND. - SO AND WHAT GOT YOU TO START DOING ALL THESE DIFFERENT ACCENTS AND-- IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE SPEAKING THE LANGUAGE LIKE PORTUGUESE OR WHATEVER, BUT YOU'RE NOT. YOU'RE JUST SOUNDING LIKE IT. - YEAH, I'M JUST PRETENDING LIKE ALWAYS. - DID YOU HAVE ANY IDEA IT WAS GONNA PICK UP THIS MUCH TRACTION? - NO, NO IDEA. I MEAN, I LITERALLY PUT OUT THE VIDEO, I WENT TO BED, AND THEN THE-- LIKE, THE MORNING I WOKE UP, IT HAD HIT OVER 100,000 HITS. - IT'S AMAZING. IT'S REALLY IMPRESSIVE. SO IT GAVE ME AN IDEA. I'M GONNA PUT 45 SECONDS ON THE CLOCK, AND YOU'RE-- I'M GONNA TRY TO GUESS WHICH ACCENT YOU'RE DOING, OKAY? - GREAT. - SO... - OKAY. [speaking gibberish] - UH, FRENCH. - [speaking gibberish] - I HAVE NO IDEA. [laughter] - AM I THAT BAD? - NO, THAT'S JUST I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT LANGUAGE THAT WOULD BE. - [speaking gibberish] - I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THAT'S WHAT THE JAPANESE SOUNDED LIKE. [laughter] - [speaking gibberish] - I HAVE NO IDEA. [laughter] THAT'S AMERICAN? - OH, MY GOD. YEAH. - WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME? - IT WAS GIBBERISH. THAT'S KIND OF THE POINT, ISN'T IT? - OH, THE WHOLE THING WAS-- YOU'RE DOING GIBBERISH AMERICAN. [speaking gibberish] THIS IS THE STUPIDEST GAME I EVER-- [laughter] I COULDN'T GUESS ANY OF THAT. ALL RIGHT. [cheers and applause] SO I UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU FILM YOURSELF, YOU'RE BALANCING THE CAMERA ON ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT THINGS. YOU HAVE TO SIT THE CAMERA ON THINGS, RIGHT? - YEAH, I GET WHATEVER I FIND AROUND THE HOUSE. THAT WOULD BE LIKE, I DON'T KNOW, TEA BOXES, RYE BREAD, AND WHATEVER, SO-- - ALL RIGHT, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE YOU SOMETHING, A LITTLE GIFT SO YOU CAN STEADY YOUR CAMERA, 'CAUSE I THINK YOUR-- YOU DESERVE SOMETHING BETTER TO PUT A CAMERA ON. - THANK YOU. WHAT? A CAMERA TOO? - THE CAMERA AND THE STAND. [cheers and applause] THAT'S FOR YOU. - WHOO! - WE'LL BE BACK. - WOW. - ALOE BLACC'S GONNA PERFORM. - THAT'S SO COOL. THANK YOU. [cheers and applause]
