[Banquets/Drinking Parties] A Selection of Crowd-Pleasing One-Shot Gags for Women! (11–20)
Disneyland cast member
If you’ve ever been to Disneyland, you’ve probably seen one of the female cast members at least once.
They’re such a delightful presence that puts you in a great mood! Still, it’s true that their distinctive way of speaking and exaggerated gestures can be quite amusing to watch.
So why not try impersonating a cast member as a party piece? The moment you start talking, you’re sure to draw everyone’s attention! You could just imitate the way they speak and hype things up with some on-the-spot ad-libbing, too.
K-pop dance
K-pop dance is getting more and more exposure on TV and has become popular with a wide range of people.
If you’re a woman who wants to liven up the atmosphere not by going for laughs at a party, but by showing off your cute side, why not perform a K-pop dance? Mixing old and new hits in an omnibus-style routine—like Girls’ Generation’s “Gee” and NiziU’s “Make You Happy,” both of which sparked buzz—would be a great way to entertain people across different generations.
Depending on the scale of your party trick, teaming up with a large group to perform a full-on dance is also highly recommended!
Naomi Watanabe’s impersonation
Naomi Watanabe is a female comedian who is now active not only in Japan but around the world.
She became popular for her Beyoncé impersonations, and trying this act can really get the crowd going.
If you can imitate not just the dance but also the lip movements and facial expressions, people will take notice.
A tip she once shared herself was: “It looks like I’m moving my hips vigorously, but I’m actually just shaking my belly!”
Magic using hands
You stack your hands and grip one hand firmly, creating a side where the nails are visible and a side where they aren’t.
Normally, flipping the gripped hand over would alternate between seeing nails and not seeing them, but with a cue, both sides appear to show nails—that’s the trick.
It’s a magic trick done only with your hands, so the simplicity of not needing any other props is part of its appeal.
The secret is just switching which hand is gripping as you flip your hands, but if you focus on making the motion quick, it’s hard to notice even when performed right in front of someone—which is a fun aspect of it.
K-drama clichés
“Relatable skits” are a classic one-shot routine.
So how about performing some relatable bits from the recent wave of popular Korean dramas? If you include references to hugely popular, culture-shaping hits like Crash Landing on You or Squid Game, your material should resonate with many people.
For example, common tropes include things like eating instant ramen straight from the pot, or a cheating man getting water thrown on him.
Use these examples for inspiration and try coming up with your own original relatable skits.
Impersonation of Natsuko Yokozawa
Comedian Natsuko Yokozawa has gained popularity for her impressions that capture everyday scenes we’d normally overlook.
Her expressive skill and keen insight shine in signature bits like “The Music Teacher” and “That Slightly Annoying Woman,” which make everyone nod in recognition.
They’re great as quick party tricks you can use anywhere from big events to small drinking gatherings.
However, if you do a bit that makes people think of a specific person who’s present, it can get awkward later, so check who’s attending before deciding on your material.
Mario sound effect impression
Mario, the character who symbolizes Nintendo, is also hugely appealing for his distinctive voice.
Because he’s such a well-known character, impressions of his lines are likely to be easily recognized.
Since he’s a male character, matching the pitch might be difficult.
So rather than aiming for a perfectly faithful reproduction, I recommend focusing on conveying Mario’s vibe and practicing that bursting, energetic vocal delivery.
His lines are closer to sounds than words, so experiment with your vocalization to evoke the image of Mario.
Relatable things annoying women do
If you’re at a drinking get-together with lots of women, “relatable annoying-girl scenarios” are a great pick.
They spark the reaction of “I totally know someone like that!” while also getting laughs.
Since it’s meant to be funny, it’s best to imitate them with a bit of exaggeration.
Just be sure to choose your material carefully—if the model is someone too close to the group, it can kill the mood.
wotagei
How about we all try doing wotagei? You know, that wotagei where you dance sharply while holding glow sticks.
It may look like you’re just moving your arms, but it’s actually a pretty intense dance that uses your whole body.
To make the glow sticks stand out, it’s best to dim the surrounding lights.
Choosing the right outfits and songs is important too.
Chiemi Blouson’s “Career Woman” routine
It’s becoming a staple for party entertainment, isn’t it? Chiemi Blouson’s “Career Woman.” The boom has calmed down a bit, but I think it’s a great act because you can pack in lots of relatable jokes.
What really gets a party going are trending bits and inside jokes, right? Fill it with inside jokes that only the people there will understand, and put on your own “Career Woman” performance!
