Imipressive. Doing comedy in your own language is tough; in a foreign language, it's a huge challenge. She nailed it.
English is my second language. Actually it's very easy because most of the jokes i tell people, they laugh easily because they've never heard it before. Most of the jokes that natural born americans tell are recycled over and over so it's very boring and hard for people to laugh.
English is my foreign language. So, I'm so impressed. She really did it.
As a teenager I learned several foreign languages. One of the hardest things to really understand are jokes. I remember the first one I ever actually got in Spanish, and I was so thrilled with myself! I’m old now, and because I absolutely look like the Caucasian I obviously am, people are sometimes astounded when I start laughing at a joke they will say in a different language. When you judge a book by its cover, the joke is on you. I am so happy for this young woman!
Not only because of the language but also the culture difference that makes it challenging
@@wish2611 they do in textbook but it’s almost a cultural phenomenon that Japanese is bad at English. The younger are doing better but around her generation, most Japanese hate and can’t speak much which makes it more impressive.
i died when she said "I felt entitled" her personality is very adorable and her performance was really funny, love it
RIP
I literally said, "oh $#!+," and laughed out loud.
Aiko actualy defined what is an American.
Yes, she nailed it with, 'I felt entitled.'
Fun fact she was actually in the fast and furious franchise
Good thing I'm close to the floor if I fall off couch.
“now whenever I feel lazy and I take a nap, I’m like ‘I’m doing this for America’” is a mentality I will now live and breathe with thanks to Aiko Tanaka, great job!!
Amen amen! 🤠🥰🤪😇🌞🗽💐🍀🙏🤟🏽💖🪁🎂🦾🌟🥳🏍🪶🌻🦉🍓 wonderful peaceful and joyful blessings to ALL! 🫶🏼😀
The irony is so many racist Americans thought for years (and still do) that Mexicans were lazy who slept all the time (lookup Slowpoke Rodriguez) when in actuality, they are some of the hardest workers.
Wish I could sleep.
Someone needs to patent that phrase 😂
I'm guessing you didn't need her help.
This girl needs her own sitcom! Her facial expressions and the way she delivers her comedy makes her prime for her own TV Show. I'd watch, that's for sure.
no she doesn't...shes awful////
@@shmutzydawg Thankfully your opinion means as much as mine to the powers that be. Sucks that you are such a sad person.
@@shmutzydawg you dont need to share something like that, you better keep it to yourself and hope that she'll never read your stupid comment. If you cant make someone happy then at least dont make someone down with your action
@@laketosky-aerialimagery80 logged into another username to comment? Shes not a good comedian by any standards. She's bad. Straight up and straight down. If u think she's good, then you are either pandering or you're a complete and delusional fool.
@@shmutzydawgas much as i want to respect your opinion, but since you didn’t mention any reason, i’d say you’re just either racist or insecure of her comedic talent. 😂
As a fellow Japanese I’m rooting for her all the way!! So proud of her!! In Japan we don’t do stand-up comedy by a single comedian (we have duos / traditional single-comedian comedy where the comedian is sitting down / group skits etc but single-comedian stand-up comedy is EXTREMELY rare) so it’s so nice to see her throwing herself into this field, it must have taken a lot of practice, adjustment and experience to come to a stage like this. Go Aiko!!
She is no longer Japanese though. She became American. Americans like the attention.
@@tewaewae her nationality is now American but she is still japanese regardless
@@youtubeviewer604 nope. Japan bans dual citizenship. She is American of Japanese ancestry.
@@tewaewae I am aware they do not allow citizens to have dual citizenship if they are past the age of 22 but on a biological level she is a Japanese person born in japan therefore she is a Japanese person that became a American citizen because she forfeited her Japanese citizenship.
@@youtubeviewer604 exactly Japanese American. peace
"I felt entitled...I got sassy"
I laughed at all her lines till my stomach hurt. Love this funny woman!!! 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏💖💖💖
@@DL-ep5uk I have an Asian fetish so it would be yes for me, she was funny but nothing new
@@Brucelee89896 ….get help….
Finally a comedian who makes jokes that everyone and not just Americans understand. I'll be looking forward to her performances!
Her jokes was not funny as she made fun of the united states
@@rachelwalsh6116 that was the funny part lol
@@leluna888 that not funny as making fun of the United States is not funny to me as I love this country and so anyone who makes fun of the United States is hating this country.
@@rachelwalsh6116 that's your problem.. you should learn how to digest when people stating facts whether you like it or not.. do you like to be called beautiful when in fact you are ugly ?
I think, Heidi don't understand well
She's that kinda human who brings aura and positivity everywhere she goes 🤍
1000% and dropping all the little funny things in the group convo
With this performance it just hit me that none of the judges for America's Got Talent were actually born in America. Gotta love it 😊
Not only that but half the contestants are NOT from America either..lol
american always thought they represent the world
@@iamhardwell2844 😂 cry more. We do represent the world. Most diverse country ever. Even the people who hate it here, won't leave.
@@axeliosstonewall6235 they are there to earn money not loving the country
@@axeliosstonewall6235 yes, because moving your whole life to another country is easy. Go touch some grass
She tells the truth through her jokes ♥️♥️♥️
uncle rogers older sister
She is faking her accent. You can her her American accent underlying it.
@@wheelie642 of course its an act
OOOO does she oooo yeah were so lazy only country were we never stop working and we built the greatest empire on earth....
@@notademonrat yeah exactly,that's russia not america right
I performed in a prison. "It's important to have a CAPTIVE audience". Howie Killin the jokes!
That was the best joke in the whole thing
I actually heard this line from Micheal Jr some years back 😂😂 absolutely hilarious
I got captivated🤩
Loll What brilliant timing on that one 👏 his brain worked so fast! 😲
@Dylan Clarke, right?? 😆
She's so adorable. I'm a huge fan of stand up comedy and I enjoyed every bit of her performance. She's an inspiration. No matter where you're from, no matter the language barrier, you have what it takes to "wow" the world. Believe in yourself.
So making fun of the united states is an inspiration.
@@rachelwalsh6116 when doing stand up comedy, it's very important to make sure that the audience understand the jokes. The fact that she's from Japan, people doubted her, they thought she wouldn't do well at stand up comedy speaking a foreign language but she believed in herself, told the jokes which the judges and audience loved so that's why she's an inspiration. There are many people who aren't brave enough to do it but she did it and that would inspire others to chase their dreams. I really believe that anyone can achieve their goals if they work hard and believe in themselves.
Btw the jokes about America were hilarious, her delivery was awesome 🤣 it's just comedy, don't be sensitive, have a sense of humor.
@@dripxenseixensei3822 I do have a sense of humor but there are some things I won't find funny and making fun of America is one
@@rachelwalsh6116 I feel ya. In my opinion, America is AWESOME but I do enjoy a good laugh 😂
@@rachelwalsh6116 America is a continent. FYI
I've met her once in LA many years ago at a convention, she's actually a model. Cover of import tuner magazine as well. She super sweet, kind and extremely funny.
Yeah right. Me too.
Yep, I recall her from my import tuner days. Glad she's gaining some success and one where she doesn't have to sell her body
Oh yea i remember her from hot import nights. Glad shes doing great in other areas
I'm not surprised, she's beautiful and outgoing.♡
She was one of the hot girls at the begining of the races in tokyo drift. I think she was also in playboy and was on howard stern like 20 years ago. Shes been around for a very long time
The girl has been around for years, glad to see her on a bigger stage!!!
yesss! always loved her
Wasn't she in NFS Tokyo Drift?
Yep she was, and was also a top Japanese import model
@@G281088 Finally!!! I kept wondering the same thing. I kept thinking that this lady sure seems familiar. She's in the car when Han and the dumpy lead actor are drifting around the car with Aiko.
I thought she was already established, tbh. I’ve seen her on tv before. Had no idea she was in fast and furious tho and was an actor.
When she asked "Is this a rice crowd?"
I howled. That is so open-ended. 10/10
Proceeds to show some Asians 😂
I smiled, I laughed, I cried, and I was inspired. She "captivated" me
nah, u lying dawg.
Very nicely said. Me too.
@@josephk1798 no cap.
She has likeable personality
Dimples ♥️
She is hilarious. Her jokes are authentic and relatable. Also, her personality is quite different from the typical Japanese don't you think? and I love it. She's very beautiful too! Good for her!
I think shes from osaka or okinawa, people from there are more openly
@@Ok-oo2kh I know you don't mean to be rude but plz don't make assumption based on where they're from. Everyone's built different. FYI she's from Tokyo ;)
you should see a Japanese party. Shy is a pretence.
@@Ok-oo2khshe from Hawaii .
. . . I thought the same thing in and out . . !
"Because I felt entitled" - "You hold the door, you peasant!" I'm laughing so hard, she's so right, her slamming social commentary in such a polite way, she's amazing! I teared up when she talked about her Mom, she definitely has talent! 👍
I love it when comedy is also 100% true. Her comment about Americans being entitled is absolutely true
She's definitely going to get her own sitcom tv show. Just you'all wait and see. I said it here first.
I was literally going to comment the same thing ! That would be amazing
Her personality and quirkiness literally had me falling in love. She is going places, no doubt about it!
I thought of it first.
I joke your prediction comes true
I was thinking the same thing!!!
I really like her! Her personality is so warm and she seems very unique.
she is simple, natural and hilarious...i love her all in all as she is cute
She's so adorable, I love her energy. She did really well in presenting it especially given it wasn’t her native language.
I was just giggling for most of it but once she said "I feel entitled" I was cackling at every successive joke. She's brilliant, I love her.
She's so adorable and hilarious!
I'm glad she's living her dream and she's really good at English for just getting her citizenship and doing stand up! Absolutely fantastic.
I don't know why, but I fell in love with her the second she walked on stage, before she even said a word.
Most Asians can be hot when you see them in person because of their natural beauty, look up on their history of Japan, you're will like it
@@pedrocortes5973 Had nothing to do with what she looked like. It was something special she projected.
@@shawnuel gotcha
that's the magic of Japanese girl.
Gay.
She’s hilarious but can we talk about how GORGEOUS she is
You sound woke AF.
@@NoOneHere2Day she is pretty, how is that woke?
@@NoOneHere2Day 🤭 you've clearly never bothered to look up the definition of that word, bless your heart.
yeah waiting for that comment! she is really pretttyy!
Her jokes are so simple, yet her personality and funny disposition both gave her the public acclaim 🤔😊
She was hilarious. Everyone understood and related to exactly what she was saying!!! Funny that Americas Got Talent has a panel of judges that are all from different countries. Howie from Canada, Heidi from Germany, Sophia from Columbia, and Simon from England. She's going far in this competition. 💗🤣😂🤣😂
America truly is a nation of immigrants. its a good thing, it makes everything more interesting.
Ya, it’s called America’s Got Talent and no one on the panel is an American.
@@ladalekoehler2176 theyre all there to see if americas got talent
I was correct, I got it right
She's so funny, cute, and there's just something really warm and welcoming about her.
Mom is looking down so proud of her saying "That's may baby ".
Her mom also saying "yup she was also born in the rice field" 😜 jk
Mom: that’s my illegitimate child in a rice field
Her pauses and comedic timing is spot on. Plus she's beautiful to look at.
Agree she is cute
She started out as a model for import car magazines.
She's "spot on" and CLEAN! Everyone can relate to her, lol, and without humiliation.
She is "spot on" and very funny.
However, her regular act is very blue (do people still say that? Her set uses very rough language & is very sexual.)
Which is part of what makes her act kind of unexpectedly fun & inspirational.
A white or black comedian using overtly sexual graphic language is kinda normal and unsurprising.
But, coming from Aiko, it is kinda shocking, and subverts a lot of conventional "rules."
A really good comedian is not only funny, but helps people see things in a new way. Aiko, I believe, does that.
@@darinsingleton3553 Quote the sexual part.
@@theTechBee Perhaps, I didn't make clear that I was referring to her "regular" sets, which you can catch on many other RUclips channels.
She, wisely, cleaned up her set for AGT.
I would suggest that you might check out her other sets elsewhere, as they are also very funny and clever.
This once again proves that Mother's love and encouragement means everything to a child. Aiko is funny, sassy, quirky and very lovable for sure. But her mom was a brilliant mother. RIP Aiko's mom.
She's such an incredibly adorable person! It's hard not to like her ♥️
FANTASTIC she will most definitely have more appearances at comedy clubs
hopefully a HBO special
She is already well known......and this really is not one of her better sets.
Such an adorable lady. Hope she goes viral.
the hardest part in entertainment industry is being a comedianne, its so hard to make people laugh …she is so natural
This little lady has it all going for her. Yes she is sassy and really funny with it. She's got awesome stage presence. Love her. 👌🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂💖
She gets you laughing then says something a little extra that gets you laughing even more at the same joke! 😂
I am watching this on my phone, on a train with my headphones in. By the end of her act I didn't even realize that I was crying until I absently used my forearm to wipe my eyes. Which led to me feeling more then a little horror when looked up and around and immediately realized that I got more than a little caught up by this hilarious comedy act, since I am stubborn about displaying private emotions publicly. I am laughing at myself right now! 😂🤣😂
So good to see Aiko appear on this stage. She cleaned the act up for AGT. That first joke would normally be ‘b*stard in the rice field’. Less impactful, but it still works. 😁
5Star Forevere Aikooo?!!❤
Her crying made me start to cry 🥲🥲🥲 she was adorable and funny and sassy and talented. I hope she goes on to do great things with her career
I love her!!! Her perspective on being an American, not originally from the US, is freakin' hilarious, and as someone from the US, we need more humor and humility. LMAO
I second that!
She used to be Import Car Magazine model & cover girl. It’s been about 20 years but I really enjoy seeing this side of her. Aiko is Awesome!
now you mentioned it, so i check further and internet said that she was in Fast&Furious Tokyo Drift, so i open the movie and there is a woman looks like her, but not so sure a with all that bitchy makeup that she played in that scene
And She Got a ( Like From Simon )
Well she was also in tokyo drift
SHE HAS JUST CREATED HER NICHE!....so relevant...she and trevor noah...brilliant, relevant, whimsical , personal...fits the whole agt package!...go girl..mama was right...global american comedy....
She send such a powerful message with laughter good for her 🙏🏻
I thought she was hilarious before AGT. I’m glad she killed it on National TV. Hope to see bigger and better things for Aiko. I’d hang out with her.
Performed in prison and Howie straight away pipes up with "It's important to have a captive audience". 😊
She is so likeable
Humble
Funny
The list goes on and on ❤️
Hope she's doing well and recogniseable and going tour getting hire in different comedy show after AGT journey .
She deserves it tbh 💯
I love the way she played on American stereotypes! The whole "I felt entitled" "I dont want immigrants to work either" was all really clever! Her outfit and personality just lit up the room! I hope she continues stand up, she's really funny!
There’s so much nuance that can make or break a joke especially the punchline, to pull that off successfully in your second language is extra impressive!
OKA NIGA NAIDES !!
I'm the only one who notices that anyone from the jury is not american by birth? Howie - Canadian, Heidi - German, Sofia - Colombian, Simon - British ... So this act was amazing because they all felt the comedy.
No you’re not the only one who figured that out detective.
Yes we know
Wow. You’re brilliant!
Sure you'll need to tolerate a few more responses like these.
So sorry Ana...."Judging" from that 1st trio of gems😂🙄
Music IS THE universal language, no translation required🙂
Comedy is a pretty decent second language, with translation if required.
Our "selves" are usually the best subjects of our comedic tales😂
You can tell she's genuinely such a sweet person, with obviously an amazing sense of humor - she's going to go far!
Rooting for her! She’s got a likable personality.
Her energy is so infectious and her reaction at the end is priceless! Had me smiling and laughing the entire time. I am a fan!
She's hilarious and I love her because she did not vie away from tackling issues of reality. I have this feeling that she was keeping it edgy and enjoying the risk as well!🤝❤️👑🥂
I totally agree. I think a sharp mind lurks behind that sweet facade! Its a rare quality that few possess, that balance of sharp wittedness and playfulness is hard to get right.
I hope she goes farr she was funny and absolutely loved her personality
far not farr
@@anonymous7964 i know how to type far i meant farrr
It wasn’t funny compared to other stand up comedies.
her subtle pauses and timing is amazing! She speaks slowly unlike the other comedians who talk too fast that I don't understand
That was lovely and funny...she got me smiling and laughing throughout...well done girl
Apart from her talent at stand-up she is also beautiful 🌹
Yes
Aiko was my Japanese teacher!!! Congratulations, Aiko!!! I knew you could do it! She's one of the nicest, and of course funniest, people I know!! 頑張って!! 👏👏👏🥳
I love "illegitimate child in the rice field". She was so funny and cute. 😄
She’s funny and I was laughing but idk my my brain just kept screaming she’s so damn adorable
We love her here at the laugh factory, I can’t wait for her to sky rocket ! She’s genuinely a sweet person , cheering for you aiko! 🫰🏼🫶🏼
FaZe in japan gon go crazy
IM HERE FROM PLAQUEBOYMAX'S STREAM, SHE TEACHED HIM JAPANESE
“True American because I felt entitled”
Accurate
😂👍Correct.
I agree, it was “brilliant and hilarious.” I can’t wait to see what she does next
What a great act. I know this is weird and but she reminds me of old school stand-up comedians in the way that they both possess this disarming charm with just a hint of rascal... A sharp, clever comic with things to say and a personality to deliver them without insulting a single person in the room. I am definitely watching out for this one...
As an immigrant myself, this was both an adorable and incredibly impressive performance.
I'm SO glad Aiko is one of the 55 acts making it through.
I truly thank everybody involved in sharing this video with all of us… Including @Americas Got Talent…. So funny and so inspiring and so beautiful! God bless us all everyone… joyfully and Peace believe so thank U kindly Universe! Good luck to all & loving respect to all from Texas! 🤠🌻☮️🥰🌞🍀😇
If this wasn’t AGT, she already won! I laughed at every bit of her joke!
She killed it with " i felt Entitled" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Murder she wrote😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Love her💪💪💪💪
One of the few stand up comedians on this show that actually make me laugh
Same here. It takes a lot for me to laugh these days.
I swear she is the cutest thing out there! Had me smiling nonstop!
She looked like a professional who was just going on AGT to fool the judges. Awesome stage presence and humor
Thats because she is a pro, just like many many of these contestants.
Her story was so moving in she was so hilarious i love her we need more people like her 👏🏽💯
This is one of those auditions that's gonna be in comedian compilations 5 years from now. You don't just forget something like this.
I could literally listen to her do stand up comedy for days and days. 🤣🤣🤣
I laughed so I got tears of laughter.
She has to pursue comedy she is genius at it. ❤️❤️❤️
She was an import car model, was in tokyo drift also. she seems like a hard worker and is so funny, shes been on the grind for a long time now.
AIKO!! I remember her from All Def. loved her then, love her now.
Its very hard actually for japanese to speak english so fluent like her.she is so brave to overcome that
I think this is the third act by a Japanese act this season, and they’ve all been wonderful. She’s adorable and funny.
Aiko Tanaka is hilarious!! So glad the world gets to see her comedic talent! 🎉🎉🎉
She had another stand up for laugh factory! She almost hit a million. I really loved the jokes and humor. Thank you for making my day ❣️
With a few lines and she captivated the audience. Love it!
She's like a tiny sunlight in a cloudy day, i would pay to have someone like her in my circle
Good and bad feelings about this audition.
I'm so happy for her, but pissed at some people.
Remember when Asian women were getting attacked/ killed for being Asian and an immigrant.
Some Asian American women and high school students were even harassed.
I'm lucky because I'm a pretty big Asian male. No one ever threatened me as an adult, only as a child of 8 in the 60's.
Also, I think it helped that i rarely saw myself as asian, but American. So i didn't grow up with lots of the insecurities that many immigrant Asians have. I never knew it existed until i learned of it in my Asian American class.
Im soooo happy for her that I'm crying.
Great audition and congratulations on your citizenship.
✌🏼🦁
I hope Aiko wins AGT 2022. She is highly engaging and her content is widely relatable.
I didn't know immigrant jokes were this funny!! I love how courageous she is. As an immigrant myself, i do often get insecure due to the language barrier because my job is related to talking..Her mom's love must have given her bravery to go for what she wanted..So wonderful and beautiful....
She adorable and very beautiful also very hilarious I will live by her words when “ I’m lazy doing nothing I’m doing it for America lol
She is so adorable and funny. I love her personality 😍
Youre living your mothers dream and your American dream now!
Goodluck Aiko!!!👏💞🇵🇭
Damn, that was funny! 🤣
She is total chaos I love it
Wow an Asian mother supportive of something other than medicine and business. What an amazing mum I’m sure she’d be proud. Such a funny and sweet comedienne! 😂❤
