One-Shot Gags That Go Over Well at Parties and as Entertainment—Recommended for Women (41–50)
“Let’s Give It a Try” Parody Song: “Let’s Look Back”
How about singing a parody of WANIMA’s “Yatte Miyou”? Since it was also used in a mobile phone commercial, many people know it, so it should be easy to do.
WANIMA’s song itself is actually a cover—an arranged rock version—of the original children’s song “Picnic.” Let’s pack in relatable memories that everyone can connect with and turn it into a parody song!
Dance “Heavy Rotation”AKB48
Let’s dance to AKB48’s signature song, ‘Heavy Rotation’! When it comes to AKB group dances, having more people makes it look more impressive.
There are many moves, but they’re all simple, so I think it’s an easy song to dance to.
True to an idol song, the choreography is cute.
Coordinating costumes will make it even more exciting!
Chuei’s one-shot gag
Many of Chuei from Nagareboshi’s one-shot gags are the kind that make you burst out laughing.
Since many of them are short and high-energy, they’re perfect for drinking parties and banquet entertainment! It might feel a bit embarrassing for women to do facial gags, but making funny faces to get laughs is a big key point.
Do your best and ride the momentum to pull it off.
Dice stacking
Dice stacking is the act of stacking dice inside a cup.
It became widely known thanks to a TV variety show’s hidden-talent segment.
You can do it anywhere as long as you have several dice and a cup! By using centrifugal force to stack the dice inside the cup, it takes practice, but when you pull it off, it really excites the crowd.
Eyelash Toothpick Challenge
As a quirky party trick that gets everyone smiling at banquets or drinking parties, the “Eyelash Toothpick Challenge” is super fun.
Balance a toothpick directly on your own eyelashes or gently on false lashes, and compete to see who can keep it from falling the longest! It’s a light, slightly nerve‑racking game that sparks laughter.
Perfect for livening things up—cheer each other on with a friendly “You’ve got this!” and the mood will naturally warm up.
The best tip: relax and just have fun!
Finger tutting
Finger tutting is a dance that began gaining attention in the United States around 2008 and has since become widely recognized in Japan, using the fingers, wrists, and arms to express a variety of movements.
The waves, geometric shapes, and other patterns are astonishing—hard to believe they’re created with just the hands.
Since it requires no props and doesn’t need a large space like typical dances, it’s perfect for indoor group hangouts.
Why not start practicing steadily now so you’re ready to show it off?
Hige Dance
This is the Beard Dance that Ken Shimura and Cha Kato performed on the classic Showa-era variety show ‘It’s 8 O’Clock! Everyone Gather!’ It’s fun for all ages, so it’s sure to be a hit with everyone! Even if you adapt it into a women’s version, don’t forget the mustache!
