00:02 Welcome to watch mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the celebrities with the best and most unexpected
00:14 Celebrity impressions we never knew these guys had it in them
00:18 Number 10 Benedict Cumberbatch
00:26 Benedict Cumberbatch is well known for a variety of roles including Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Strange in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
00:32 He's also gotten a little bit of attention for his Alan Rickman impression over the years
00:37 But you might not know that he's got a few more under his belt
00:40 Rolling down the street smoking in dough sipping on gin and juice
00:50 Cumberbatch has worked with a lot of celebrities over the years and he's especially good at differentiating between the numerous Chris's who appear in the
00:58 MCU you could do any impressions of your co-stars in strange situations
01:02 Do you feed me? Yes, so Chris Hemsworth at IKEA
01:06 We especially love his Chris Evans trust us the deeper you dive on this guy the more delightful celebrity impressions you'll find
01:18 For Evans, I'm sorry
01:20 number nine
01:22 KJ Apa when you think of the Riverdale cast your mind probably doesn't scream great impressions
01:29 But in at least one particular case you'd be wrong
01:32 KJ Apa who plays Archie on the show is pretty good at impersonating his co-stars
01:44 FB Jones
01:46 No got it correct in a video where he and a few others are trying to guess who is impersonating who his friends usually guess
01:53 His impressions fairly quickly. This is hot. I'm gonna try my best
01:56 Because he was on the south side
02:03 Yeah, and in a hilarious video posted to Camilla Mendez's Instagram
02:08 He does a pretty funny impression of singer John Mayer
02:11 It might be over-the-top, but you have to admire his commitment to Mayer's breathiness
02:15 Number eight and Hathaway and Hathaway is probably our celebrity with the most stereotypical
02:30 Theater kid energy and you know what we love her for it
02:34 Especially if it means she keeps giving us hilarious impressions of her co-stars football
02:40 football I
02:42 Like it. I like the St. Tennessee Titans. I like the the Patriots God bless America
02:48 We first noticed Hathaway's penchant for mimicry when she absolutely nailed a Matthew McConaughey impression
02:54 Seriously she might not have the voice perfect
03:02 But she's got the vibes and the cadence down pat her Britney Spears impression is also not to be scoffed at
03:07 Oh, baby, baby
03:09 We've been trying to get this one down for years and we haven't even come close to this perfection
03:22 number seven Chris Pine
03:25 Early on in the run of the late late show with James Corden
03:28 Corden gave us a delightful gift and that gift is knowing how good Chris Pine is at impressions on an early episode of Corden show
03:36 Pine wowed the crowd with his Christopher Walken impression. So there's this lion
03:40 The king of the jungle
03:44 We got a big man
03:47 He's under a tree in Africa so big
03:52 This is another example where maybe the voice isn't exactly right
03:57 But the cadence and mannerisms are amazing pine has a couple of other celebrity impressions ready to go in his back pocket
04:04 Including a spot-on Jeff Bridges
04:06 And a hilarious William Shatner seriously, is there anything this guy can't do spot
04:15 Can you fix it negative captain? I'm not familiar with the mechanics of plasma systems, but I do know someone who is my brother
04:23 You have a problem number six Christina Aguilera
04:28 When you think of celebrity impressions, you probably don't immediately think of anyone impersonating musicians singing
04:34 But if you consider it a little harder
04:45 It makes sense that amazing singers would be really great at impressions
04:49 And when you have vocal control like Christina Aguilera, you can pretty much pretend to be whoever you want
04:55 A
04:57 Gulera has shown off her impersonation expertise on shows such as the tonight show starring Jimmy Fallon her arsenal includes the likes of Cher
05:07 Britney Spears and even the lilting tones of Shakira. She also has a pretty good Samantha from Sex in the City
05:14 Who knew? Wow, I mean, I think you should
05:18 You have the blessing that would be fantastic
05:23 Number five will I am we're not sure how far down will I am his impressions go?
05:28 But we've got to give it up to him for at least one
05:31 Will I am is known for being one of the main members of the black eyed peas?
05:35 But his talents go further than producing and singing
05:37 I got that hit the beat the block you can get that bass on below a few years ago on an episode of the Graham Norton
05:44 Show will I am whipped out an impression of Michael Jackson that made us do a double take Michael Jackson called
05:50 Hey, what's Michael?
05:53 Yeah, so I heard you guys are doing a show tonight, yeah, we going at 9 o'clock
05:56 All right, so I gotta put the kids to sleep
05:59 Will I am seemingly grabs this impression out of nowhere doing it so nonchalantly?
06:04 We're not even sure he realizes how good he is at it
06:07 The impression is great and the story he tells about Prince and Jackson interacting is hilarious
06:13 Michael Jackson leaves and goes home and says leave me in the house for breakfast
06:17 So I go to his house for breakfast knock on the door first words. He says
06:21 Why was Prince playing the bass in my face number four Matt Damon?
06:26 You've been so generous with your abilities and talents over the years with us in
06:31 Bringing to us this remarkable impression of Matthew McConaughey
06:35 If you're a person who has been on the internet this long you've most likely seen one of Matt Damon's amazing Matthew McConaughey impressions
06:42 Sure, Matt go ahead and take your shirt off talk to that president. They have over there
06:49 Me and him are gonna take our shirts off
06:50 But the actor doesn't have just that one voice in his back pocket
06:54 If you dig a little deeper you'll find videos of Damon impersonating celebrities like John Malkovich and Jack Nicholson
07:00 and it was just me and Jack in the room and
07:02 He turned around and he goes out of nowhere
07:06 He goes, you know
07:07 I never would have made it this far in my career if I wasn't a great
07:12 Writer if we're being honest, we're pretty partial to his Malkovich impression from the movie rounders
07:18 Damon has always been a great storyteller and that combined with his over enthusiastic Malkovich impression is hysterical John goes
07:26 If you don't have my money then you
07:30 Number three Sarah Paulson
07:35 Sarah Paulson is probably best known for her work with the likes of Ryan Murphy on shows such as American Horror Story
07:42 How long had it been?
07:44 20 minutes
07:47 20 hours, but what we wish she was known for are her stellar comedic chops and more importantly her celebrity impressions
07:55 Paulson does a wonderfully accurate drew Barrymore, which you've all probably seen. Thank you. I'm just gonna I'm just I'm so honored
08:03 Being attendance today. Okay, however, we're more in love with some of her other impressions her completely over-the-top
08:09 Sandra Bullock is pretty ridiculous, but her Kathleen Turner is almost there and her Holly Hunter
08:15 We couldn't have done it better ourselves
08:17 Seriously, if you close your eyes, it's like hunters in the room
08:21 Number two Bono
08:27 All right. So this one is really just one celebrity impression, but everything about it is so funny
08:33 We had to include it. Actually, I feel like the rock star on that occasion
08:38 Bono is known for a lot of things namely being the you to front man and his philanthropic work
08:43 But one time during a panel at the Clinton global initiative, he wormed his way into our hearts for something else
08:50 Bill Clinton was late to the event. So Bono took it upon himself to help out
08:54 Now what first of all, what was your reaction when you heard Bono?
08:57 Pretending to be you
09:00 It was pretty good. He scurried over to Clinton's chair and began talking as if he was the former president
09:05 signature Southern rasp and all when I first met Bono a
09:11 Hey walked into the Oval Office and I actually I thought it was a member of his own road crew
09:18 Bono's impression is pretty spot-on and it made it even better that Clinton gave Bono a try later on the Irish we can imitate anybody
09:26 But alas I've been singing so long and screaming loud at these concerts that I'm horse

10:01 Scherzinger has a number of singing impressions under her belt and she knows it's about more than just the vocal talent
