Hello, I'm Elyse Myers,
and you might know me from the internet.
And today I am playing Secret Talent Test with Cosmo.
So my secret hidden talent is, (drum rolling)
you're gonna have to wait and see at the end.
Okay, so, whistle with my fingers, okay.
(upbeat music)
(blowing)
(buzzer sounds)
Make a three leaf clover with my tongue.
I can only do the taco.
(buzzer sounds)
There you go.
Make an origami out of this piece of paper in 10 seconds.
(clock ticking)
(buzzer sounds)
I made a folder.
I made a taco.
(bell rings)
I need to perform a magic trick with a deck of cards.
Personally, I think it's pretty magical
when you can shuffle mid-air, (cards shuffling)
(bell rings) and do a bridge.
(people ooh and ahh)
- Magic.
Throw a ball in the air
and then clap 10 times before I catch it.
(clapping) (laughs)
Close.
(clapping)
(bell rings)
Oh, pat my head while I grab my, I actually can do this.
(bell rings) I can also do the thing
where it's like the music thing where you do this.
You didn't ask me to do that.
Okay. (bell rings)
Solve a Rubik's Cube in 30 seconds.
I saw Justin Bieber do this one time.
If he can do it in a car while singing,
I feel like I should be able to do it.
(Rubik's cube shuffling)
- Oh my God, I feel it's coming.
No! (audience cheers)
I could be in a car singing if you wanted me to be
but that would be a different kind of show, I think.
I'm just pretending at this point.
(clock ticks)
Okay, this is really, (buzzer sounds)
it's impressive.
My goal was actually to give it to you
exactly the way that you gave it to me.
But after moving it around
and I think, I actually don't know.
We'll have to watch it back.
I'm gonna try and make someone laugh in under 20 seconds.
Go. (clock ticking)
(squeals)
(laughs) (bell rings)
(laughs)
It's an old Darryl Jones Trick for you. (laughs)
In less than 30 seconds
you want me to read a page of book out loud?
Okay, is this a steamy romance novel?
(laughs)
"The halls were silent and empty.
Strange for such a large state.
They'd mentioned others the night before
but I saw and heard no sign of them.
A balmy breeze scented with," a word I cannot pronounce.
"I realize it only from Elaine's small garden
floated down the halls carrying with it a pleasant
chirping and abunting, a bird I wouldn't hear back home
for months if I only ever heard them at all.
I was almost to the grand staircase
when I noticed the paintings.
I hadn't let myself really look yesterday,
but now in the empty hall with no one to see me,
a flash of color amid a shadowy gloomy background
made me stop, a riot of colour and texture
that compelled me" (buzzer sounds)
(exhales)
I got like a quarter of the way through.
Is it really about sex or no?
Name all 50 states in under a minute.
We've got California, Washington, Oregon, Texas,
Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Virginia,
Michigan, Georgia,
Nevada, Arizona,
Ohio.
I've never taken a geography class in my life.
(laughs)
Wait, New Mexico,
and Florida.
And,
Time. (buzzer sounds)
I'm calling it. (audience laughing)
(laughs)
I'm gonna style a wig in 30 seconds.
We're gonna start with some just beautiful beachy waves.
Okay, great.
And, my favorite,
I've actually never done someone else's hair before.
I'm burning it.
Can this go under heat?
Okay, great.
Okay, I like to do beachy waves.
I like to do just one, that's perfect.
And then a bobby pin, and then it's pinned.
(clock ticks)
(bell dings) Perfect.
I've been looking for a color change.
(upbeat music)
All right, sorry.
I'm gonna make up a song as I sing it
for the very first time.

(laughs)
That gave off a lot of like "Elf" energy,
Will Ferrell just like, "I'm singing and I'm singing."
That was good.
Testing my psychic abilities.
I'm gonna guess what number I have.
I'm feeling over 10, less than 20.
13?
You guys, you can totally see it through.
(audience laughing) (Elyse laughing)
27?
Close. (buzzer sounds)
(laughs)
I'm gonna try and keep my eyes open for a full minute.
Ready, set.
Go.
(clock ticking)
(buzzer sounds)
(laughs)
The lights, it's the lights.
I'm gonna catch a gummy bear in my mouth.
(coil springing)
All right, close.
Can I try again? (laughs)
Ready?
(coil springing)
Nailed it.
(coil springing)
That was a close one.
It counts, rebound. (bell dings)
(laughs)
(ambient music)
So my real secret hidden talent is,
(drum rolling)
being able to tell when I meet a stranger
that they just got a haircut.
It's a feeling.
And also it's like, wow,
those are some sharp edges on your hair.
I usually always just go, "haircut."
And then they'll go, "yeah."
And I'm like, all right, cool, good talk.
That was great.
You can find me, Elyse Myers on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube.
Or you can hear my podcast, "Funny cuz it's True"
anywhere that you find podcasts.
Bye.
(ambient music) (laughs)
I just can't believe that's the secret talent I gave,
I'm so sorry.
I should have picked a different one, made one up.
(ambient music)
