Thailand Does Have Talent

Watch the video first.

Then go here for the backstory.

Imagine what kind of reaction this would get here, compared to the Thai reaction.

  1. I’m not an expert on Thai culture, but I can imagine some cultures where the reaction would have been far more negative.

    It was definitely surprising!

  2. I don’t think the US would have reacted negatively.  In general, we expect our entertainers to be freaks.  There are a lot more Lady Gagas than Frankie Valleys, and have been for decades.

    Please note that I use the term ‘freak’ in fun.  I also use it on my dogs, cats, wife, family and horses on a regular basis(especially the cats).
