Two videos spoofing prominent Asian American athletes are making their way around the internet.
The first featured actor and rapper Drake playing Manny Pacquiao in the recording studio. Those who’ve followed Pacquiao’s career closely know that the champ has dabbled in performing as a singer.
Don’t know if Drake is saying something about Pacquaio’s potential, but I have to say the video made me chuckle the longer I watched it. The video originally aired on the ESPY Awards.
I’m a little more ambivalent about the second video which is a takeoff of the buddy cop movie, Rush Hour 4, starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Subbing in for Chan and Tucker are likenesses of Jeremy Lin and Kobe Bryant.
Let us know what you think of either of these videos.
