Chineseboys (updated)



Just found out about Youtube.com yesterday -- like everybody else -- and promptly found this hilarious couple of chineseboys lip-synching to some Backstreet Boys songs. Part of their schtick seems to be the intentional (or not) inclusion of some guy working on a computer in the background. I think they're in some kind of college computer room in China somewhere, probably not speaking english.

Freaking. Hilarious.

Update: They now have four videos total posted on Youtube. After viewing their complete oeuvre (multiple times) it is becoming clear to me what they represent: an amalgam of puri-kura (the frame being the presence of some random dude working on a computer in the back), karaoke, commentary on the maudlin sentimentality (and universal appeal) of the boy band style, and Jim Carrey.
