my late brother was also amused by Oha's face after singing back in the early 90s. but he realized in the last decade that the song's lyrics was actually funnier.
I'm not black and when I seen this I was 6yrs old and I thought and still think she is a beautiful woman I'm not gay I'm just saying the dress her hair she is beautiful ✔💯❤
It’s funny because she looks exactly like my Mom. She was 22 when this movie first came out and everyone used to stop her to tell her that “she looks like the lady from Coming to America”.
carlos broughton i wonder what woulda happened if she actually disobeyed him and tell him what he wanted to hear? Like what music and food she really like. He woulda married her and that would have been the end of the story.😂😅😥😭😰
I feel really bad for her. Imagine being raised and brainwashed from birth to accept, love and satiate every single desire of this man only for him to humiliate her at the first meeting and then eventually reject her for some foreigner. I mean he didn't mean anything like that, but from her point of view, her life's purpose has been fundamentally destroyed shamefully.
What's even more tragic is that when it comes to the sequel, The daughter of the general (whose also the brother to the original bride) was raised the exact same way to like verything their potential suiter liked. It wasn't played in the way how this was which was in its time hysterical and actually a bit more tragic than anything.
@@kristinasmallwood3160 out of the thousands of ways they could have made jokes to laugh your head off in this situation alone, this isn't it. Believe me, I love comedy and I'm good at writing it. That's how I know when people get desperate without a genuine idea and just put in anything in the hopes that audience will laugh simply because of the genre. The same type of comedy done right is the "it's good to be the king" set piece from Mel Brook's history of the world.
Lamar Lewis That was the 80's. STD was quite a problem at the time. Also, Africa is a place very plagued by many diseases, like STD... I guess the joke covers those two. Different times.
He turned down an obedient, high quality woman who trained her whole life to be his wife; and married a chick from the Bronx who was dating a soul glo metrosexual. 3 years into marriage he's going to wake up one day and say "oh no What did I do?!"
Funny things aside, the girl has been conditioned since birth not to have a personality, to supress her own desires, that's years of therapy ahead, if she even wakes up to be aware she has a trauma.
This spoiled prince pranked the young lady like that, but that wouldn't fly in places like Wakanda or Telassar. I hope Miss Emani emigrated to one of those city-states, and built a life with a man who appreciated her beauty and grace, and treated her with dignity.
being a slave then being a wife. Is not love at all. It's partnership it works both ways. Communicate , trust but the biggest key of a couple i. Is understanding one another feelings.
O wow I just looked up this woman and she is still beautiful to this day. However i didn't realize she was from Toledo, OH. Hometown honey right there.
I feel so sorry for the girl, I mean her whole existence was made to serve him, having no right for personal opinion, for personal life, or interests. She is psychologically broken, there are things she would never be able to experience. I know it's a comedy, but there are cultures where this is practiced, and it is so demeaning and dehumanising. It's extremely sad.
That movie still exist in 2020. Cool. I learned my first English word that was easy to remember from this lol. When he said the "FCK"U. word. I didn't know you have to be trained to be a wife. Last time I check that is something from within. So basically its not you his married to its the person that train you. Any ways I could give to FCK about marriage. Its not a obligation its a given. Its not monopoly. 2. 1/2 of the time you married you still have to call another dude to do your plumbing and light construction work in your home cause your husband don't know how to do sht. Kind of like my dad. He don't know how to do no menlly work but him and my older sister know how to take advantage of women and boys and manipulate them. Oh, what pisses me off when dealing with these types of guys flattering themselves. for being the type of women that would want to get married. But they assume you referring to them. But yet they the dude that you not even thinking of as a idea husband.
It was her second role in a major motion picture, and one with this kind of star power including Eddie Murphy in his prime, and you think she should _not_ have accepted the role?
I assume that's her father accompanying her near the 1 minute mark? His dress and manner suggest that he is a highly ranked soldier in the Zamundan armed forces. He would have spent a considerable amount of time and money having his daughter trained to serve the prince as his wife. He would no doubt also be banking on a royal marriage as his family's way of ascending the ladder of Zamundan aristocracy. For such an ambitious and puissant man, the fact that Akeem publically spurred his daughter in order to marry a commoner would have been an insult and humiliation of the worst sort. Knowing the fractious nature of African court politics stemming from tribal affiliations and a reliance upon nepotism in order to garner loyalty and support (i.e. Uganda during Idi Amin, Zaire under the reign of Mobuto Sese-Seko) I think we can safely assume that Akeem and his chosen bride would've enjoyed a blissful couple of weeks as newlyweds before they were publically beheaded by a newly risen military junta, and their bodies thrown to the crocodiles as an example to the rest.
She’s gorgeous!
So are you
They did her dirty in the sequel lol. She was still making animal noises and had the same outfit on 3 decades later 😂
Yes that was so unrealistic
That had me wheezing when I saw her still hopping on one foot and barking like a dog 😭😭
That cracked me up I know it's crazy 🤪🤪😧😂
They shouldve NEVER made a sequel 🤦🏼 You couldn't make me watch it 😆 This movie is perfect the way it is 👏
She aged well though😅
She's beautiful. I always felt bad for her.
XactlyCeSe1 why u feel that way?😱😨
@@lamarlewis8489 She is akeems wife after all😛😛

Felt bad? You some new. Age bitch.
She had no choice.

I hit the floor when he STOPPED singing. He stop in silence and looked like he was the S..T 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
His name is Oha.

He had to hold the door open for several seconds to get all of her dress in
Now are Days he must be very carefull of the metoo Moment Womans he is Making Woman to jump like a dog so always be carefull with the ladys
lmbooo
The opening song is hilarious and Vanessa Bell Calloway is a beautiful, chocolate goddess :)
So are u
I'm not black and when I seen this I was 6yrs old and I thought and still think she is a beautiful woman I'm not gay I'm just saying the dress her hair she is beautiful ✔💯❤
Yes
Mmo
Vanessa Bell Calloway is Drop Dead Gorgeous. She was the Diana Ross of the 80s.🤩😍😘🥰❤
What????Diana wasn't 90% prettier than Vanessa. I love Diana Ross and went to many of her concerts. Nay I'm with Vanessa 💯.
the way eddie breaks the fourth wall after she starts barking, hahahahah!!! gets me every time
Eddie breaking the 4th wall like Deadpool and Zack Morris!
Eriq La Salle (Darryl) broke the fourth wall too, later in the film as he was about to get busy with Lisa's sister Patrice
@@m64h hehe... "get busy" hehe
How did he break the fourth wall?
It's a John Landis motif. Notice Eddie breaks the fourth wall in Trading Places too and MJ in the Thriller video
I damn near killed my vocal cords trying to hold that last note😁😁
I know the pain
My favorite movie. Wow can you believe that it's been almost 30 years now.
35 😁
3:02 and she continued hopping on one leg going “oo oo oo oo oo oo” for the rest of her life because Akeem never told her to stop.
Lmao 😅😅😅she makes a comeback in the second movie
woow! correct!
@@GuRennexSilva I can’t believe there’s a sequel!!!

Dont give damm wat pple say . Love this movie . It was funny ass helll
But thats what people say! What else would they say?!?
@@good2btheking I agree, love this movie! But, actually it isn't well reviewed apparently.
@@good2btheking they probably say "I don't give a damn what people say. I love this movie. It was funny as hell"
That look that Eddie Murphy made to the audience (breaking the fourth wall) from 2:33 - 2:35 is PRICELESS!!!!
Gotta give it to Imani! That dress was slamming even though she didn't get Akeem!! That guy that's singing is hilarious! 🐕 👗 👡 👑 👩
2:33 Akeem looks at the camera and thinks: "This is not possible. This can't be happening..."
🤣🤣🤣
This move didn't come out in the 1970's it came out in the late 1980's.
"Coming To America" this movie came out in 1988 I went to the theater and seen it. I was 15 at the time
Jackass Dick title of the video says it
Exactly
Omg i would love to wear a dress like that when i get married. She looks sooooo beautiful 😍😍😍😍
Bra this will never get old😅😂🤣
I ain't gonna lie I love the dress and the hair 👍✔💯 on that actress ❤
Gotta love that 4th wall break at 2:34.
The first time I saw this movie and Olah started singing; made me laugh to the top of my lungs. Imani was a very pretty lady.
I think it is was Oha.
Whomever edited this video edited out
“A vision of perfection, FREE FROM INFECTION....” the best line IN that song. Just saying😊
Whoever.
GOOD GAWD SHE FINE
and brainwashed
adams darwins how is she brainwashed? She was chosen 2 serve only him!😂😰😅No one made her do it😂😰😌😀
She's alright but Lisa was prettier.
Don Johnson
Both are fine. The skin shades of Black Americans are the best
Don Johnson Nah she is finer than Lisa.
Beautiful and still is today!
Never seen this movie but when i see a clip i was just amazed on how she looked
Vanessa Calloway is stunning in this movie. Wow.
She's your queeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEN to BEEEEEEEEEEEEE
😂😍❤💖😍👏
0:59
How did she manage to hop on one leg in those heels? I would have broken my foot. XP
Stevie Chan cuz u fat
Candypie 2010 well damn! 😂
She was trained for that shit since childhood.
@@candypietravels Says the one who has candy in their name and dougnuts as their picture.
Candypie 2010 🤩🤩😂😂😂
That’s the ideal spouse of all the men in the church I grew up in😬
Imani izzi is an unbelievably divine and drop dead gorgeous Goddess
When I saw this scene for the first time when I was six.... I died laughing at this scene. It was comedic gold!
I don't know why this scene creeped me out when I was younger! Watching it now idk if I'm still creeped out hahahaha
His singing had me and she’s stunning 😍😍😍😍😍
This is EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!
Dude, you cut out the funniest line of the song "free from infection".
Sharon Runly Nichols i always wondered what he meaned by that.
Lamar Lewis He meant that she’s free from sexually transmitted diseases so he can have sex with her without worrying about getting a disease 😩😂
Chim Cham do u know who the woman is standing next to semmie?
Lamar Lewis
That was the 80's. STD was quite a problem at the time.
Also, Africa is a place very plagued by many diseases, like STD... I guess the joke covers those two.
Different times.
But it doesn’t look cut. Wonder if it was edited out
💀💀💀When he broke out singing
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
2:50 AH! I SEE YOU TWO ARE GETTING ALONG! 😂🤣😂🤣
Excelente coreografía!! Magnífica
Best time in my childhood
it's crazy because so many guys would love to marry her for obvious reasons.
He turned down an obedient, high quality woman who trained her whole life to be his wife; and married a chick from the Bronx who was dating a soul glo metrosexual. 3 years into marriage he's going to wake up one day and say "oh no What did I do?!"
😂😂 right
2:30 when Eddie breaks through the fourth wall. Genius
How do you know that wasn't in the script
He's legit struggling with her in that room, trying to get to know her to no avail XD
She is super gorgeous 🖤🖤🖤🖤
This movie is a fucking classic.
Who's here after Coming 2 America?
I can’t believe they sing this song at weddings now!
Funny things aside, the girl has been conditioned since birth not to have a personality, to supress her own desires, that's years of therapy ahead, if she even wakes up to be aware she has a trauma.
Dream wifey, "Whatever you like..."
😆
2:33 he looks at the camera
That was deliberate fool, he wanted to show his disbelief that she was behaving like a trained dog.
2:30 I died laughing when he looked at the screen
The way he looks at the camera each time kills me.. xD
''Is she for real?'' 2:33
This IS The most beautiful movie ever made ,I'm crackin up e v e r y t i m e .
Best movie ever
Even when I was little I knew that would not be the life for me.#I have a mind of my own and I’m not going to like everything you like-period
I love this movie.
I just clocked King Willy from Predator 2 was her Dad. Awesome
poor guy didn't realize what he had.....
This spoiled prince pranked the young lady like that, but that wouldn't fly in places like Wakanda or Telassar. I hope Miss Emani emigrated to one of those city-states, and built a life with a man who appreciated her beauty and grace, and treated her with dignity.
🤡
Watching this again for the first time in a long time. It really sucks to be her.
Imagine in the sequel, 30 years later, and she's still doing that.
She is
Youre gonna enjoy the sequel then
Love them both💜
Love doesn't go by choosing some1 for some 1 else, instead by what your soul driving you to be with.
PREACH?!?!?!
I want a Barbie that looks just like her.
Is how he got so serious after singing that ??? Song
Not sure why but I wanted to watch the dance scene and this, which made my day!
This is an awesome movie haha
The singer is wonderful voice
