IMPERSONATION ALLEY — I’m a big Matthew McConaughey fan.
From his cheesy chick flicks to his more serious Oscar-winning roles, I think he’s a great actor who is fun to watch. His Southern accent and well-known phrases only add to his movies.
Which is why when I saw a parrot named Einstein impersonating his “all right, all right, all right,” I was delighted and couldn’t stop giggling (my co-workers can confirm this.) According to the video description, the “Talking Texas Parrot” saw McConaughey’s acceptance speech when he won the Oscar for best actor for his role in “Dallas Buyers Club.”
Obviously after hearing McConaughey repeat his trademark phrase, the parrot had to try — and he’s actually pretty good.
The video was actually posted to YouTube in March 2014, but recently started going viral. Einstein the Parrot has a whole YouTube channel full of delightful videos where he sings and even dances.
Go ahead and give it a watch. I’m off to buy a parrot.
