Adam Hills On America | Happyism | Universal Comedy

[Applause] and look I feel bad dissing are there American people here there's a couple over there going woo just live The Stereotype uh mean I I love you guys I just think we we look up to you a little bit too much do you know what mean we try to impress you too much and look I love you because you're full of confidence you guys will sing your national anthem at the drop of a hat in fact the next person next to you is wearing a hat so let's try it where are you where are you from over here man' what your what's your name sorry Carrie Carrie do you know what Carrie was so American then she waited until the microphone got to her before she SP then where are you from Carrie Kansas Kansas I don't know why I'm speaking like this Carrie but uh all right come with me Carrie come on we're going to sing your national anthem we're going to show what Americans can do come with me watch your head on the camera there Carrie Carrie from Kansas I love your accent Carrie now uh how old are you by the way I'm 19 oh that was close I'm allowed to do this hi car how are you with your Anthem because my theory is that you guys can just bust it out without even preparing for it I know it as well so I'll do it with you oh okay okay look at that oh okay oh it's fine yeah it's cool okay you ready okay okay oh say can you see by the dawn early light you are nailing this what so we Jesus you don't need me at the Twilight last and bright stars through the perilous night all the LS we watch were so gently streaming I'm going to let you do the high note and the rockets the bombs burst in the air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there oh say does that star Spang [Music] ready all the land of the free and the home of the [Music] brave yeah my friend that was amazing [Applause] Carrie I know you're 19 and he's 12 but if I set you up with Josh it wouldn't look bad do you see what I mean that was unprovoked that was an American just popping up out of the crowd busting out their Anthem in tune nailing it walking off yeah suck that [ __ ] is see I was on an I was on an American show and sometimes it's fair to say you guys don't travel well uh I was on a show a TV show in Australia hosted by an American comedian and I don't want to name her um because I think she's brilliant I was really excited to be on her show but I I I was so scared to speak up but this is how she opened her show in Australia in front of 500 Australians like this hey Australia I've been here for seven days and I haven't seen one black person yet I and I was thinking well we don't we don't have many um I mean we have Aboriginal people but you wouldn't have seen them cuz they don't hang out at 5ar hotels mainly cuz we've treated them like [ __ ] so thanks for bringing that up publicly but I don't think that's what she meant I think she meant African-American people cuz that for an American person that's a black person she goes I haven't seen one black person yet I was like well we don't have many of those I mean we'd call them African Australians for a start but we don't have a lot of people of African origin in Australia mainly and this is what I wish I'd said we never imported them as [Applause] slaves I mean don't hold that over us don't diss US cuz you can't see a visible reminder of an awkward piece of our social history they like some German guy in New York going hey what's going on New York I haven't seen one former concentration camp anywhere and it's not just Australia I've seen black American comedians on stage in Ireland walk out and go hey what's going on Ireland you ain't got no black people here and you can hear the Irish audience go uh no uh we're Ireland it's it's a cold wet shitty rainy country they don't want to come like what's what's wrong with you people there's nothing wrong with them they just geographically don't have many black people there you know what I mean [ __ ] there aren't gingers in the Amazon but it doesn't make them racist [Applause] well who the who the downtrodden people who the people Everyone used to pick on and discriminate against but now they look up to cuz they got a kind of funky accent and the Irish are going oh you [ __ ] but you kept going so I haven't I Australia I haven't seen one black person yet next line but you got Asians every everywhere and again I'm thinking yeah cuz we're right next to Asia and then honestly she said this and they just won't leave me alone I know and the only way to sign that offensively is to do that they won't leave me alone that's the only way you can convert that into sign language you know and now two things Appo me about that one the Australian audience thought that was [ __ ] hilarious but do you know how outdated an Asians talk funny joke is in Australia we've had people from Vietnam and China coming to Australia for years they're now second or third generation do you know what a second do you know what an Asian Aussie sounds like right now good day I'm Darren Wong how you [ __ ] [Applause] going just it was from a different era again the equivalent would be me walking out on stage in New York going hey what's going on New York I've been here for a week and I haven't seen one Vietnamese person yet but you got blacks everywhere what you talking about Willis and look I don't it's too easy to just dis Americans outright because you're amazing Carrie you showed off what Americans do best just it's in your posture even the way Americans walk is incredible I have a game I play overseas which has picked the nationality from the way they walk that's great cuz you can pick Aussies a mile away Australians Australians walk like our fairly strong looking up could go anywhere you ever SE an Australian get on a plane we walk like this honestly an Australian on a plane looks like he's thinking so let me get this straight it goes really fast then up [ __ ] [Applause] incredible English people have a stoop you got guys have got a bit of a oh god oh used to be important do you remember do you remember for me the Queen's Jubilee last year summed up Britain to a tea pump and Circumstance and pissing rain honestly it rained on the queen for 12 hours straight which I think was just God's way making sure the Irish enjoyed it as well even English town names sound English I love getting on a train here and just hearing the next train is all stations to [ __ ] Fosters [ __ ] [Applause] Fosters
