There probably aren’t many people who love doing impressions in front of others! On the contrary, more people likely find it hard to perform in public.

That said, there are times—at work gatherings, get-togethers with friends, wedding receptions, or parties—when you have to put on some kind of performance.

In this article, we’ve picked out impression material that’s likely to get laughs and is easy for women to try.

From bits that work regardless of age or gender to impersonations of various TV personalities—there’s something for everyone.

Keep these in mind as a handy reference for when the time comes!

Milet’s mysterious, commanding voice and distinctive singing style are truly captivating.

Just slightly exaggerating her way of speaking or singing can instantly lighten the mood.

When she sings, she skillfully balances breath and voice and delivers richly emotional performances, so if you keep that unique phrasing—and her cool, mysterious vibe—in mind as you imitate her, you’ll make a strong impression right away.

Create that familiar atmosphere everyone recognizes, and craft a warm, smiling moment!

Chanmina’s charm lies in her unique style and strong individuality.

The key to getting everyone hyped is to incorporate her tone of voice, expressive way of speaking, and fashion vibe.

Since she showcases a bold, distinctive style, even adding small touches like a hat, sunglasses, or some street-style poses will get the message across.

If you throw in rhythm-based gestures and free, expressive facial reactions, everyone will naturally smile and feel a sense of unity.

Going a little over the top is just right! Have fun being yourself and try expressing Chanmina’s one-of-a-kind character.

How about Winnie the Pooh, the Disney character everyone knows? Since it’s a voice imitation, it’s recommended even for people who’ve never done impressions before.

It can also be fun to do a Pooh impression and have him say things he normally wouldn’t, since he’s such a soothing character.

LiSA

LiSA

The powerful, emotionally charged ballad Homura, which became a big sensation as the theme song for the film Demon Slayer: Mugen Train.

LiSA is a popular artist known for her strong vocals and expressive delivery.

Simply imitating her tone and gestures—full of energy and passion—will spread smiles all around.

By incorporating poses like a deep breath before singing, cheerful waving, and gestures that reach out to the audience, you can more easily convey LiSA’s on-stage presence.

Tuki., who also performed at the 2024 year-end Kouhaku Uta Gassen, is also famous for being a singer who doesn’t show her face.

In places where many people know she doesn’t show her face, it might go over even better.

Face away from the audience and sing like she does; it’s a complete bit until someone jokes, “Show us your face!” Of course, it’s also fun to skip the comedy and just sing well.

Her vocal tone has a slightly chesty, enclosed quality, so keep watching her performances and practice to match her style.

[Momoclo MV] Go for it! Phantom Thief Girl / Momoiro Clover Z (MOMOIRO CLOVER / IKUZE! KAITOU SHOUJO)
“Let’s Go! Phantom Thief Girls” dance Momoiro Clover Z

The hit all-female group Momoiro Clover Z’s “Ikuze! Kaitō Shōjo” is a great song to mimic for a singing impression.

Since you can do it with multiple people, it cuts down on the embarrassment, and just wearing different colors makes it look the part.

Another plus is that the dance isn’t too complicated.

It’s even better if you assign roles to match the members’ personalities.

Sometimes deliberately mismatching can actually get laughs and make it more fun.

Definitely give it a try at least once!

Kumi Koda

Kumi Koda

Kumi Koda took the world by storm with the curious phrase “ero-kakkoii” (sexy-cool).

Even after becoming a mom, her energetic activities keep us excited.

If it’s a party mainly attended by people right in that generation—the majority being 50 and over—it’s sure to be a hit.

First of all, go all-in on classic Kansai dialect; if you can just master that, you’re already halfway there.

One of Koda’s charms is the gap between how she talks and how she sings, so keep that in mind.

Exaggerating a small glottal stop—like adding a little ‘ts’ at the end of words—will make it sound more like a singing impression.
