lol good accent, so-so material. her vietnamese accent is more authentic then russel peters chinese accent. but russel peters sh!t would probably be funny even without a good accent. and yeah at the end its gibberish i think, not 100% sure though.

She's cute, kind of funny, but she needs to quit grabbing the microphone

HAHAHA her accent is pretty good

ok, see, people like this who make jokes are funny because they have a grasp of the language, even if they're making fun of the accents. for example russel peters....and also mike myers, when he was imitating japanese in this one snl sketch. you can tell they have a grasp of the inflections...

as opposed to people like rosie o donnell....who spout stuff like ching chong, which is just based on negative stereotypes and has no basis in truth

Heh... Rosie O'Donnell's attempt to imitate a chinese person was terrible

Did she really speak vietnamese in the end?...
I kept hearing lam in every phrase she said...

Although I always thought Vietnamese women had that harsher sounding voice :D.
But well done.

The accent is good, but apparently the manicurist knows the proper pronunciation of every single word. :D

She's pretty funny. I am vietnamese. That is not anything close to vietnamese at the end. But the rest of it is pretty good. My guess is she is 1/2 vn and that's why she does it so good. Just like Danny graves the pitcher.

She has a myspace up and she claims to be Latino/Mexican with no mention of any Asian origins.
