Imelda probably wants YOUR bathroom.
She wanted everything else in the world, why not that, too?
This is Broadway, you know.
Everything makes cents.
Commercial theatre, what can I say?
Man, where are the Filipinos when you need them to translate?
Probably all off playing mah jong, fighting their chickens, whooping it up eating lumpia, you know the scene.
Okay, BITE ME!

LOL okay...I'm Filipino and I don't do any of those things...okay I chased a chicken once when I was 5, but that's it!
But now that I know what she's saying, it makes me laugh! It has nothing to do with anything!
Arnel akong ngalan Imelda (Arnel, my name is Imelda)
Asa man ang banyo 'ninyo (Where's your bathroom?!)
Basically, she's appearing to be some kook that pops out of nowhere, asking for the loo.
"I haven't got a pail."
"Find your grail, your GRAIL!"
"But it's not missing. It's right on the counter where it's supposed to- defying gravity, my giant cup's gone!"
"Five hundred, twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes. How do you measure... measure a year?"
"How many times do I have to tell you, it's five hundred twenty-five thousand, five hundred and eighty-five point thirty-two minutes. You will never graduate if you keep basing your math on showtunes."
"You ruin Broadway for me."
"As well I should."

Posted: 6/23/06 at 1:31amI actually think the Imelda Marcos idea is GENUIS. The other impersonators are instantly recognizable. If they were all this way, it would be boring. Having one that everyone is scratching their heads over, gives everyone something to think about. Then once her name is mentioned, everyone thinks Oooooh. . .then laughs. It's perfect comedy.
