Kaylin, do me a favor.

You have to get this out of here.

I was invited over to help oversee a photo shoot that she was doing for a cookbook that doesn't even exist.

Yeah, but the camera's not on it.

She's in my underwear!
45
I don't know.
46
You did it?
47
Oh, my knees.
48
I walk in there, and there's two toasts, and then she flashes me and then she flashes me her vagina.
49
I was literally disgusted.
50
No, I know, but you seemed to flash your vagonia a couple times.
51
No, she didn't.
52
There wasn't one thing.
53
No, but when Kelly was at your toaster oven cookbook shoot...
54
Well, you don't wear underwear to shoot in.
55
That was so insulting.
56
I was really hurt by that.
57
She's a woman.
58
You were a woman.
59
She was her girl.
60
You took it as a personal insult?
61
It's not.
62
It's just rude.
63
Sonia, was your vagina rude to Kelly?
64
No, who cares?
65
All I know is the shoe came out fabulously well.
66
So all of a sudden, this huge woman man comes down the stairs, I thought maybe it was a drag queen, but it was Luann.

I did a.. the Social Life magazine did a thing on me.
68
Oh, good.
69
And I'm on the cover.
70
Oh, great.

I didn't know that.
72
I did a shoot and they told me that it was going to be an eight-page spread inside, or a six-page spread inside, and now it's gonna be on the cover.
73
Fantastic.
74
I know.
75
The pictures look pretty good.
76
Well, are they doing retouching?
77
They said they really didn't touch him up that much.
78
I don't know.
79
I hope so.
80
You just don't say to a friend, are they going to be doing retouching?
81
It's just not something that you say.
82
I can't find the help, I can't find the help, I can't find the help.

177
And make them look less chiclet-y?
178
Yes.
179
I think she doesn't need to bring attention to her teeth because she has so many.
180
It's possible by shortening the two side teeth, it's going to make the two front teeth look bigger and horsier.
181
So that's why...
182
Horsier?
183
Yeah.
184
Horsier.

She could hear her nannies getting up with them.
273
I was sitting there having a lovely moment with the ladies, and you came in in your Herman Munster shoes.

Oh, wow.
277
That is so rude.

What You'll Practice in This English Lesson
This lesson uses lively, conversational dialogue from a popular video to help you master real-world English speaking skills. You'll practice understanding casual tone, quick back-and-forth exchanges, and idiomatic expressions—all while improving your pronunciation and fluency through the shadowing technique. Whether you're learning English with YouTube or using a dedicated shadowing site, this video's natural pace and relatable scenarios make it perfect for honing your ability to keep up with everyday conversations.
Key Vocabulary & Phrases to Learn
- Ridiculous: Used to express that something is absurd or unreasonable (e.g., "Asking staff to unpack her bags is ridiculous!").
- Goes down easy: Describes something (like a drink) that is pleasant to consume (e.g., "This cold drink goes down easy").
- Exaggerating: Overstating a situation (e.g., "Stop exaggerating—it's not that bad").
- Oversee: To supervise or manage a task (e.g., "She was invited to oversee the photo shoot").
- Disgusted: Feeling strong revulsion (e.g., "I was literally disgusted by what I saw").
Practice Tips for Shadowing Success
The video's dialogue is fast and informal, making it ideal for practicing shadowing—also called "shadowspeaks"—a proven technique where you repeat phrases immediately after hearing them. Here's how to do it: First, watch the video once to get the gist. Then, play short 2-3 second clips and pause to repeat, focusing on matching the speakers' tone and rhythm. The conversational speed means you'll need to listen closely to contractions (e.g., "It's" instead of "It is") and casual interruptions, which are common in real English. For best results, use a shadowing site to slow down the audio if needed, but aim to match the original pace as you improve. Remember, shadow speak isn't just about words—it's about capturing the emotion behind phrases like "Are you kidding me?" or "Stop it, Don." By practicing with this video, you'll build the confidence to join natural conversations in no time.
Grammar in this video
The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:
| Structure | In the video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — a past action that still matters now | have produced · you've done · Have you ever seen |
| Passive voice be + past participle — the focus is on what happens, not who does it | was invited · was really hurt |
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
