right?? absolute bicep goals!

[@ivyblackwood6257]

I LITERALLY COULDNT STOP STARING THE FIRST TIME I SAW THIS

[@k.5425]

Right. Like...

[@starvender]

I just spent a min looking like an idiot throwing my fingers in the air and still can't do it

[@jlib7389]

megann me too 😂

[@floresamor4146]

I've been trying to do this for years. I'm African and I can't even do the African finger snap T-T

[@lilica1983]

You have to keep all the fingers relaxed. The middle finger and thumb touch but use no pressure on any of the fingers. Only the wrist does the job.

[@mugisama779]

no u only have to keep your index finger relaxed and your middle and thumb fingers rigid place them in a position where it looks like you are about to snap your fingers then relax your index finger and flick your wrist

[@hunnynary8695]

Ugh! I can't do it!!😭😭

[@shreyasjahagirdar7380]

All this snapping helped her build those biceps!!

[@idislikemints]

Andrea_ It was a joke, man.

[@Nini-ic6ut]

Ebony how so?

[@hitleroppar249]

+Ebony That's your opinion, a lot of fitness models are beautiful and Lupita looks good with her biceps!

[@NairobianMuse]

+Ebony you're dumb if you believe this😂😂😂

[@yohanaaliciarosario623]

Shut up!! 😂😂, you make my tummy hurt

[@mojtabatollo]

[@caroleecampbell7030]

We do it in Jamaica too.

[@NoName-be8vp]

Most Brazilians got African DNA in them, they’ve probably been doing it since the Atlantic slave trade and it’s been passed on to modern Brazilians bruh we never know 💀🗿

[@TheJohnnyblaze4ever]

[@nuruhnats20ntale14]

[@qhaweqhawe8300]

[@AmetafJohora]

im in pain

[@timv82]

It really is an international thing, not just African, they do it in South and Central America too

[@clairebaker5441]

Teenagers in the UK use this gesture a lot. Normally as a way of punctuation or showing off excitement. Pretty sure it came to the UK through African Migrants, so its cool to learn where its from originally!

[@standardprocedure7017]

YES ! During the 90s and early 2000's.

[@I.KUchiha]

Standard Procedure we still do it

[@hux2000]

I learned it when I was a kid in the 70s in London. My school was about 75% black, mostly Afro-Caribbean, so maybe that's where it came from.

[@standardprocedure7017]

Which part of London was your school in ?

[@tylersharpe9413]

I think Ali G might have made this popular in UK.

[@angelatircuit2355]

Well, I just confirmed that no matter the version, I can't snap my fingers. Complete silence.

[@MelindaGreen13]

Same here. D:

[@mugisama779]

u should stop trying it, especially if you are white, im not being racist.. its just that your fingers will will be all red. im kenyan and even when i do it the underside of my hand starts turning red. its abit painful when you do it for a while but we are used to it here

[@angelatircuit2355]

Nope, not white. But, I guess it's a skill I can live without.

[@jenniferlamont7460]

Snapping doesn't make your fingers red....

[@mugisama779]

they will if you do it too much to the point where it gets painful.. if i hit you anywhere your skin will turn reddish

[@jasminelynne8441]

I CAN'T DO IT 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@jbukenya80]

Jasmine Lynne a keep practicing. When you least expect it..POP!

[@wilynakarenina6712]

I think i can do it but the sound is not as loud as her😂

[@7orqu3]

Jasmine Lynne because ur not black

[@jasminelynne8441]

7orqu3 i dont think i have to be black to do it

[@tessarix]

Me either.Tried several times. My hands hurt now! [Warning: Do not try this if you have arthritic fingers! I mean it.]

[@omgarmyonces4176]

It definitely means your in trouble in Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@loreleiwahome298]

[@taurusguy9305]

[@terroralabruja]

I'm from Mexico and we do that finger snap also and it means the same thing. All of the Latin American countries do it also. So it means that we learned from the African Ancestors, the African diaspora.

teresaguerrasalazar yup

[@TheHeartsGirl]

teresaguerrasalazar about to comment the same, I'm Latina and remember my mum doing the finger snap thingy all the time.

[@mewiaz3]

We do it with a "lero lero" and multiple times, really fast.

[@tastyboogeryummmymmmm]

[@famousfarel2448]

When i was a child we would snap at people whenever someone hurt us indicating they're in trouble cause we were gonna snitch on them😂😂😂

[@nkosazanadweba7306]

I was about to rage because I was like "the fuck is she talking about?" Now I'm like "so, she means that". We used it mostly to emphasise that someone was in trouble.

[@honeyedits3071]

Tamar Lemma and latinos, you know that when mama does that she gonna kill you lmao

[@WinxMemberBloom1]

I'm Kenyan and idk how to do it 😶😔

[@terroralabruja]

I'm from Mexico and we do it also, it does mean the same thing. All of Latin America does it. I never knew it came from Africa, the African diaspora. Miss Venezuela in 2009 does it, just as she is called to answer her final question, she became Miss Universe.

[@cynthiamchechu4009]

Tamar Lemma we do it in Tanzania...but like multiple times. When a teacher calls your name to answer a qn and the answer is just at the top of the tongue...we do this. We do it when we trying to recall sth basically

[@monsteratesso]

[@sherandrea8381]

So, if someone wants to know, Africa diaspora means also Latinos or African latino's , West Indian or Caribbean

[@yupi9996]

I'm pretty sure it doesn't mean Latinos.

[@Undeniably_Me]

Andrea T ... Thanks for clearing that up, bc I only remembered seeing Latino kids doing it in school.

[@yupi9996]

Mariivoire okay It doesn't makes sense to label someone who's ancestors came to the new world as diaspora. They're pretty much the nationality in that country and have completely assimilated into that culture. However first gen up to second count in my opinion.

[@yupi9996]

Mariivoire Alot of black people don't know anything about African culture, and differences between regions. So I don't think they count as diaspora. I'm African

[@yupi9996]

BlindianBabe I thought she was referring to African expatriates.

[@ybabzzi]

It never crossed my mind that people didn't know how to do this, coming from west Africa we did this but I also did this in primary school in London.

[@Classof-wf5jw]

ybabzzi for real.

[@ClaudiaNkeji]

ybabzzi omg same!!

[@cenonya4967]

lol true

[@k.5425]

Same. I thought it was a normal something. We used to do it in school as kids when someone gets into trouble

[@pencilwisdom6161]

We do this in Jamaica 🇯🇲

[@Sesamsesam59]

well you are from African descent so

[@ayeshamartin_868]

Done in Trinidad too...most of the Caribbean islands. ..

[@ms.rstake_1211]

duhhhh... of course, you do you ...are a country of African/Afro-diaspora

[@TunTheOfficial]

Pencil Wisdom yup in that video. Hot wuk-Mr.vegas

[@Maameelle78]

Old traditions die hard

[@fadygabr1396]

Yea, I'm Egyptian so that's the very north of Africa and we do it too. However, it means different if it's done by an adult or a child, If a parent does it in front of a child it means "i will punish you" so it's close to the Nigerian meaning. and if a child does it repeatedly and quick it means they want to go to the bathroom urgently.

[@melanim9943]

I am just so confused why was she created so beautifully like the angles of her face, the way her features are laid out.... like what is this. This is not fair to the rest of the female population

[@V.E.R.O.]

It's called facial symmetry.

[@Siberius-]

​@@V.E.R.O. - Could be. But then as a side note, there's a load of really conventionally attractive women, who do not have perfect facial symmetry.

[@V.E.R.O.]

@@Siberius- I didn't say they were not attractive just less; still, the higher the symmetry the more attractive the person is.

[@Siberius-]

@@V.E.R.O. - That doesn't seem to be accurate in all cases. Also it can kill the unique charm real quick. Often we are attracted to people who have something that is a little different. There's various psychological effects going on here. But also it was just a "side note".

[@V.E.R.O.]

@@Siberius- True, beauty is subjective after all. For example, Channing Tatum is considered to be handsome by many women and some men, I can see that he's physically attractive but he does nothing for me. And it's not just the way someone looks, it's also their attitude, their body language, their voice, how they dress, specific features etc.

[@dropbearzzz]

Who else hurt their arm trying to do this? I don't think I'm doing it right haha it looks cool though

[@oomshaka6683]

All in the wrist

[@wheelzj]

It's always amazing figuring out these ancestral connections cause I didn't even know this was an 'African thing'! I grew up doing it on the daily in Jamaica and it means a myriad of things for us...including the punctuation bit that she mentioned.

[@Threegnito]

We do the same gesture in saudi arabia, its like ow snap or ur in trouble, like ooow he told mom on you snap snap snap

[@amaragrace94]

3jw lol yeah it means the same thing in africa too.

[@staystrongbeunbroken]

same thing here in brazil. the gesture usually represents like being in trouble with your parents or something

[@user-rf6dn1xm3g]

Mø Nälayé fucks up w you? Don't start racist bullshit

[@nadaezzat9799]

Mø Nälayé we don't want to know that, can't a comment just be a peaceful comment without someone starting theories and statistics? however, you are right sooo I kinda agree with you lol

Lupita is just a great woman. A terrific actress as well as an overall nice person. Thank you, Lupita.

[@egiphermutintamanengu2464]

I love how she says her name. I've heard a few girls here(Zambia) mispronouncing their names trying to make them sound more'fancy' when there's really no need.. Our African names are beautiful and should be pronounced with pride. Love you lupita

I am Brazilian and we do this a lot as a signal of " hurry up" or to show that you are in troubles. .. it depends from which part of Brazil you are😉 So amazing to know it came from Africa. ❤

[@blakejones409]

In Zimbabwe children use it to jeer a colleague whom is in trouble or will be when told on. We often join in chorus singing, "Je je je! I'm telling." Funny thing, I can only do it with my dominant hand as my left is too rigid.

[@eightysevenf]

It's Day 3 and i've finally got it!! Oh sNAP. Day 1: - This is ridiculous - Hurt my shoulder violently flinging my arm in the air - Discovered that if i rested my elbow on something, i could start to make a sound. Probably because it isolated my energy more towards my hand, rather than losing the energy moving my upper arm - Had to stop from the pain of my poor technique Day 2: - IMMA DO THIS. - Did it everywhere. Waiting for the bus, walking down the street, eating with friends, in the shower... - Bruised my finger flinging it down onto the tap while bushing my teeth - Learnt to go without the elbow support. Learnt to use my upper arm to just provide initial power, then let my forearm and wrist do the swinging - Discovered if I put a little Lupita attitude into it it got better, because it angled my body to throw my shoulder power into the action as well. Day 3: - Woke up and started snapping away. - Able to make a sound consistently, but realize I make the loudest sounds when I focus on pulling uP my hand, and less so on throwing. This makes it hit a nice strong peak acceleration at the bottom of the motion. - Snapping everywhere. Irritating everyone. Throwing shade all over the place.
