‘Jeopardy’ Contestant Hilariously Confuses Chaka Khan With African Royalty

Published

Sadly, the “Queen Of Funk” is not a title recognized as actual royalty.

Remember being in middle school and the teacher asking a question you just swore you knew so your shot your hand up like a rocket and confidently projected your answer to the whole class only to have it be completely wrong? Well Sarah Jett Rayburn, a contestant on last night’s Jeopardy, knows exactly how that feels except instead of thirty twelve-year-olds giggling at her she has the entire internet laughing at her gaffe.

During the episode, the Texan writer/stay-at-home mom chose a $2000 clue which read: “Here, as on each September 24, Zulus celebrate the holiday that was named in honor of this warrior leader of the early 1800s.” Now to be fair I don’t know many people who are versed enough in African history to have answered this correctly but I do know most of us probably wouldn’t have given the answer Rayburn gave…”who is Chaka Khan?”

In an all too relatable moment, Rayburn realizes her mistake and throws up her hands as if to say “What the funk was I thinking…?” The correct response was Shaka Zulu (sometimes spelled Chaka Zulu), the great warrior leader and most certainly not Chaka Khan…the every woman. Don’t feel too bad for Rayburn though, she ended up winning the night and brought her two-day total to $39,400. Could build a whole Chaka Khan shrine with those earnings.

A little aca-quarantine can’t stop these bad belters.

A lot of casts have been virtually reuniting during this quarantine with some distant gatherings more memorable than others. Of course, anytime the ladies of Pitch Perfect get together it’s a singing spectacular that goes viral almost instantly and this time is no different.

Elizabeth Banks and John Michael Higgins reprised their roles as the hostile hosts of the a cappella singing competitions, Gail Abernathy-McKadden-Feinberg and John Smith respectively, as they introduced the Barden Bellas. The powerhouse singers including Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, Brittany Snow, Hailee Steinfeld, Chrissie Fit, and Hannah Mae Lee then crush their rendition of Beyoncé’s “Love On Top.” And you know if you’re going to cover Queen Bey it better be good. Oh and streaming the song will not only sound good but it will some good too because proceeds from downloads of the cover will benefit UNICEF’s efforts to support children in Lebanon and around the world who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Aca-amazing!

Gay Couple Sends A Hilarious Video Message To The Thief That Stole The Pride Flag From Their Porch

Oh, rainbow you di’n’t.

A gay couple in Chicago became victims of theft when some jerk took the Pride flag from their porch. Rather than admit defeat, the adorable couple decided to fight back in the most hilarious way possible…buy and display more like flags…like a lot more!

Taking to TikTok to share their story, the couple begins by addressing “the person who stole the Pride flag off our front porch,” then satirically apologizing with “we’re so sorry a rainbow bruised your fragile ego.” The couple reassures the thief that there will be plenty more flags to come because they have “next-day Amazon prime.” The video goes on to show all the ways the new flags will be displayed on the front porch…including the magic trick in which one of the boyfriends pulls a never ending rainbow handkerchief from his mouth!

The whole video is brilliant and a great reiteration that we should never be ashamed of who we are. In fact, we should embrace it! The video ends with the gentle reminder that “you can keep taking our flag but you can never take our pride.” Amen to that!
