And Rihanna is called 'Queen of Shandong Province' not only because 'We Found Love' sounds like '潍坊的爱' (Love from Weifang), but also because other songs of her sound similar to cities in Shandong or have meanings associated with Shandong. For example, 'Were Have You Been' sounds like '威海油饼' (Weihai fried pancake). 'Talk That Talk' is translated as '话说聊城' (Talk about Liaocheng). 'Do Ya Thang' is translated as '东营小事' (Things in Dongying). 'You Da One' sounds like '烟台吻' (Yantai Kiss). 潍坊, 威海, 聊城, 东营, and 烟台 are all cities in Shandong Province. Additionally, ‘Princess Of China’ is translated as '还珠格格' ('My Fair Princess', a popular Chinese TV series), where the main character was born in Shandong.
Noooo! Benedict Cumberbatch's 卷福 doesn't mean "curly blessing"! It means "curly haired Holmes"! Because the translation for "Holmes" in Chinese starts with "福"！ Benedict Cumberbatch is most well known in China for his portrayal of Sherlock in the BBC series, that's why people call hims 卷福！
I think that's more of a coincidence than anything. "Holmes" is translated into "福尔摩斯" in Chinese, and yes, "福" does mean blessing. However, "something 福" is the usual shorthand we use to refer to different versions of Holmes. For example, "老福" (老=old) means the Holmes from the original books; "米福" (米=rice) means Jonny Lee Miller's Holmes in CBS's "Elementary" --"Miller" is translated into "米勒", so that's another shorthand.
In China ，“the eldest cousin” refers to someone who is chic, cool and really genuine and down-to-earth .People want to be around them like they're family members.
'Unlucky' was Taylor Swift's nickname long before she became infamous for her love life. It has nothing to do with that. “Beautiful” in Chinese is pronounced almost in the same way as “unlucky” And “every time Taylor debuted a strong single aiming at the Billboard Top 100 ranking, she is bumped out so she’s “Unlucky,” but in a loving way.
You guys are absolutely hilarious. I can't believe you guys have analyzer channel! Always the surprise. If you guys do a kinder egg surprise video I guarantee that will have millions of views. For your new toy channel. I babysit and those are the videos my friend's child obsesses over. Oh and of course Legos. Wow I'm really happy for everyone's hard work in creating and developing each channel. From Beyond Science, Double Chen Show, Double Chen News, Strictly Dumpling, and now the Toy channel. Wow! Just blown away. Keep up the great work!
Hey guys, there is more to Rihanna's nickname other than "we found love". There is another song "where have you been", it sounds like 威海油饼 in mandarin. And 威海 is also a city in Shandong province.
The one for The Weekend killed me, I thought that was the funniest. Maybe it's cause I'm Canadian. BTW, you guys made a mistake on the chinese characters for Demi Lovato, you forgot to change it from the one for One direction.
And the reason for Chinese netizens to call Matt Bomer peacock is not because he is perfect but because the character he played as Neal in White Collar is such a playboy that every time he sees a pretty lady he will flirt with her and "show off" his charm, just like every time the male peacock sees the attractive female one it will spread its tail.
That's probably true. I'm Chinese and even though I'm not sure, I think her nickname came that way. In fact, when she first started to get famous, a lot of Chinese fans compare her to Mariah Carey and starting to call her 小牛牛.
That's exactly what it is. "Bus" is a horrible derogatory term for a woman. It basically means that anybody can ride her like some public transportation.
There is a big point you don't explain about Taylor's nickname. "霉" doesn't mean "unlucky" here. Chinese call her "霉" because it sounds like “美” (beauty). 霉＝mei＝美. Originally people call her "小美女" , which means "little beauty", since she always looks like a little princess. I think the reason why people change "美" into "霉" later on is just a special way to show their strong like to her. In China people like giving weird nicknames to the ones they love.
We called TS '小美女'(little beauty) before the album Speak Now released,but then called her '霉女'(miss unlucky) because lots of fans thought the lead single of this album 'Mine' could got No.1 at the Billboard HOT100, but unfortunately it met with an unauthorized internet leak, so her company had no choice but to release it before the due date, and finally peak No.3. Many of her singles sell well, but always got very close to No.1 at the Billboard HOT100 and never reach it untill We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together released. And '美女' & '霉女' have same pronunciation, so this nickname spreads.
No, it's actually a ridicule from the anti-fans: "not so much as little 'beauty', more like little 'mold' girl", and fans couldn't see the scorn here and thought it's an endearment. It's actually funny
"公车“ means public vehicle. it does not means that Taylor Swift dated a bus load of guys... it means like a public transport, ”人人上过“ - Everyone's been "IN" her
Eminem, the "grandfather thumb" is a gangster reference. The triads are like the mafia, gangster families. So "Grandfather" is the same as "Godfather". It is like if the godfather/grandfather has a top thug. So as the English saying "has him under your thumb" means you have controll over them and can squish them when ever you want. The godfather/grandfather would have his top henchman have all the underlings under his thumb.
I think the eldest nickname for Lady GaGa is 'Thunder Empress GaGa' which is 雷帝 in Chinese Mandarin. Two reasons - firstly Lady has the same pronunciation as 雷帝 (Lei Di); secondly thunder in Chinese slang means shocking and wired, while Di in Chinese means King (empress for female). Therefore it is like king of thunder.... The reason is obvious, she's been famous for her odd (at least for many ppl) and shocking costumes/appearances/outfits/fashion style from long time ago.
it's not accurate though. She only has 8 ex boyfriends in 12 years. While Ariana has 7 exes in 5 years. But no one calls her anything. I find it really disgusting that people just pick on Taylor for no reason. Not saying Ariana deserves it too. But why only choose Taylor???
Lady Gaga has more than one nickname.1."夫人"means "Lady" 2."夏周柳" sounds like "下周六"in Chinese,that means "next Saturday" because Gaga once said "DWUW mv will release on next Saturday" but it didn't 3."鹅美凈" sounds like "amazing" because Gaga once said "Life is amazing".And the "鹅" means goose because in her song Applause 's mv ,Gaga looks like a goose in one modeling
The Rihanna's nick name also comes from a line in the song "The Moster". The line is: 'the monster that's under my bed', And it sounds like 盲僧在山东卖鳖(A blind monk selling soft-shelled turtle in Shandong province).
I could listen to Yi speak Chinese all day. I think she has a pretty voice XD. It would be really cool to listen to Yi talk about heavy metal in Chinese... Soooo cool.
The explanation for the nickname of Jennifer Lawrence is wrong. They call her 大表姐 （elderly cousin）because a netizen in a famous forum（百度贴吧）said that Jennifer is her elderly cousin and Jennifer told her that she would win the Oscar and she did. After that everyone in that forum use elderly cousin to refer to Jennifer...
The Taylor Swift bus thing -- Isn't their explanation of the nickname too innocent? If you call a woman a "gong gong qi che" it means that she's easy. It's one of the first insults I learned in Chinese.
This video is awesome :D Hiddlestoner over here, love to see that reference Yi 😂, Dan I'm with you Henry Cavil for the win and Cumberbabe here too so yeah this made me super happy lol 💞
iman cries over yoongi in Mexico we have some nicknames for it too like the glass water because you can't deny it to anybody, of the ambulance because it refuses no one. Or the pizza because when you call her she'll be at your door in 30 minutes hot and ready.
A Chinese guy doing an impression of a Chinese guy singing Karaoke in English with a Chinese accent. Not something you hear every day...hahaha Love these 3!!
Who else died laughing at The Weeknd's and Lady Gaga's nickname. So funny. I am happy I was able to laugh with Double (triple) Chen despite the lack of knowledge of Chinese.
Also Where Have You Been's pronunciation is so similor to '威海油饼' (Weihai fried cake, a food of Weihai which is a city in Shandong province), then fans found out that most of the song names in album 'Talk That Talk' have similor pronunciation to Shandong 's places and things, so fans make a joke that OMG! Riri love Shandong so much! She sinigs Shandong so many times just in 1 album! She knows so many places and foods of Shandong! She's definitely the prince of Shandong!
no, the nickname of Liuwen is because once a time, Liuwen was walking on the street, the her fan spotted her, and Liuwen said i am not Liuwen, she is my 大表姐, I will tell her that u like her. she mention this nickname from a show
Tom Hardy as 'always wet' because of his character in Inception Eames to the first place. Sounds like 一摸湿: when you touch (him) you get wet. And the extensional meaning is he has girls wet... so...
I find it funny how well the guy on the right speaks English with so little accent but he can speak Chinese just as well. I have a Chinese friend who lives in Singapore and he mainly speaks English but he has the stereotypical accent and he's constantly making fun of himself. lol
Only a few people in China call Taylor bus Mei.They are Taylor's haters.Most Chinese fans love Taylor and she is very popular in China.And not only Taylor has such hater's name,lots of other celebrities also have name like that.Her other Chinese nickname MeiMei is just like a name of little girl,nothing offensive. Ariana is called little cow,because her voice sounds like Mariah Carey whose nickname is cow sister.But now most Chinese fans call her A Sister instead of little cow.
Double Chen didn't really get some of those nick names OR They just get those information from something written by someone who is not so good at Chinese.
Stone Face Girl hahaha omg! hahahaha I literally stopped the video to comment Stone Face Girl haha I mean I agree with China. Kristine has the talent of no emotion. XD
im chinese but not from mainland and when i went to LA for studies and met some mainland chinese, i learned this habit from them of giving ppl nicknames. so among us chinese we have funny names for the ppl we dont like/gossip about and everytime we talk about it we end up laughing in tears or on the ground.
Funny to know!!! Cuz my mom is turkish she does it to.. my dad is cuban even hè does it hahaha.. my mother inlaw curaçao she gives every celeb. A funny name hahahaahah!!!
The Jay Leno name was on point. Haha! He does the voice for The Crimson Chin superhero in Fairly Odd Parents cartoon. He lives in Chincinaty 😂. Yes I still watch cartoons. Looking forward to the new channel.
it's considered rude to show your teeth/expose your mouth as you laugh; similarly, when you eat, you chew with your mouth closed. also, it's more intended toward women as its considered unfeminine.
Fayerie Leow I enjoyed the video. I wasn't hating on them, I was just commenting on something they said so...I don't understand your sass. Not every comment has to be about the main subject of the video.
hmm Taylor is nicknamed Mei Mei because of her unlucky experience with the music awards in her early career. She got nominated for tones of awards for quite a few years without winning any. That where that came from. Has nothing to do with her love life. The 'Gong Jiao Mei' name then built on 'Mei Mei' and refer to the fact that a lot of people can 'get on' a bus (gong jiao).
1:02 "If you know what I'm talking about, you know what I'm talking about." That is the most useless phrase I've ever heard. If you see my point of view, you see my point of view.
What does it mean that I don't speak Chinese, I know very little of this culture but I find this and many of your videos awesome, informative and super entertaining? Please keep doing what you are doing
“Always wet” in fact is a common joke in Chinese used to call a teacher. Because “Always Wet” pronounce the same as “Teacher” in Chinese. People usually use it to call porn actor/actress, and sex comic book author.
And Rihanna is called 'Queen of Shandong Province' not only because 'We Found Love' sounds like '潍坊的爱' (Love from Weifang), but also because other songs of her sound similar to cities in Shandong or have meanings associated with Shandong. For example, 'Were Have You Been' sounds like '威海油饼' (Weihai fried pancake). 'Talk That Talk' is translated as '话说聊城' (Talk about Liaocheng). 'Do Ya Thang' is translated as '东营小事' (Things in Dongying). 'You Da One' sounds like '烟台吻' (Yantai Kiss). 潍坊, 威海, 聊城, 东营, and 烟台 are all cities in Shandong Province. Additionally, ‘Princess Of China’ is translated as '还珠格格' ('My Fair Princess', a popular Chinese TV series), where the main character was born in Shandong.
牛逼

LOL
My mother is Korean and the first time she heard Ellie Goulding, she said, "What is this sheep sound?! Why you listen this kind thing?"
Noooo! Benedict Cumberbatch's 卷福 doesn't mean "curly blessing"! It means "curly haired Holmes"! Because the translation for "Holmes" in Chinese starts with "福"！ Benedict Cumberbatch is most well known in China for his portrayal of Sherlock in the BBC series, that's why people call hims 卷福！
I thought blessing was a reference to his first name?
Benedict = blessing.
I think that's more of a coincidence than anything. "Holmes" is translated into "福尔摩斯" in Chinese, and yes, "福" does mean blessing. However, "something 福" is the usual shorthand we use to refer to different versions of Holmes. For example, "老福" (老=old) means the Holmes from the original books; "米福" (米=rice) means Jonny Lee Miller's Holmes in CBS's "Elementary" --"Miller" is translated into "米勒", so that's another shorthand.
So you call Elementary' holmes "Rice holmes"?
Profajl Nejm haha, basically.
So what is the rice representing in this case :D
In China ，“the eldest cousin” refers to someone who is chic, cool and really genuine and down-to-earth .People want to be around them like they're family members.

Another*
but they dont post in their spoiler alert channel(-_-)
Just a little extra information: 福 in the last one stands for 福尔摩斯(Sherlock Holmes).
Why is the Chinese name for Sherlock Holmes that?
+TheFeyRa not quite sure myself, we just grew up knowing this is the name for Holmes.
also "Benedict" means "blessing" in Latin too.
ITS ALL CONNECTED.
+金大恩（casprussian） Benedict is a blessing
Thats a translation based on pronunciation but because how different Chinese and English are so its kinda fcked up a way.
Hey guys, there is more to Rihanna's nickname other than "we found love". There is another song "where have you been", it sounds like 威海油饼 in mandarin. And 威海 is also a city in Shandong province.
This is by far the funniest.
You guys are hilarious! Some of those nicknames were spot on.
卷福(curly blessing) is actually Curly Holmes , because Holmes is translated as 福尔摩斯.
The one for The Weekend killed me, I thought that was the funniest. Maybe it's cause I'm Canadian. BTW, you guys made a mistake on the chinese characters for Demi Lovato, you forgot to change it from the one for One direction.
Canadians represent 🇨🇦
Hey Ur Chinese is wonderful lol

That's true but he is still perfect.
i'm at a coffee shop laughing by myself. the perfect breakfast watch. 😂
I think Ariana Grande is mini-cow because her first songs sounded like Mariah Carey. Especially her first couple of songs. (The Way)
She can also mimic Mariah's whistle tones.
She can also mimic Mariah's whistle tones.
That's probably true. I'm Chinese and even though I'm not sure, I think her nickname came that way. In fact, when she first started to get famous, a lot of Chinese fans compare her to Mariah Carey and starting to call her 小牛牛.
so...mariah carey is...big cow?
cow elder sister
UNLUCKY BUS AND LITTLE BROKEN TEAM ARE HANDS DOWN THE BEST.
Seriously I was in stitches.
霉霉is wrong explanation，这名字是她刚出道就有的，是吐槽她精彩提名各种奖项却拿不到奖

There's a Chinese typo error around 12:55 with Demi Lovato's Chinese name.
are you Chinese?
Yeah, it would be 呆米.
Yeah
+supernaturalgirl12 nw his username? And yes there is an error
Yeah
I agree with the Taylor swift ones they are perfect
And 1D , Kristen Stewart , and Katy perry

Chinese people call Jennifer Lawrence 'Eldest Cousin' because Lawrence is a watch brand and 'watch sister' is the same as 'elder cousin' in Chinese...
You guys are so entertaining and full of life. I found this way too charming for its own good.
"公车“ means public vehicle. it does not means that Taylor Swift dated a bus load of guys... it means like a public transport, ”人人上过“ - Everyone's been "IN" her
They know, but they can’t say that in a UA-cam video
What's funny is most of these go with their personalities!😂
Triple Chen
Chens' unite!
Coming soon.
im also Chen, this Chen 陳, right?
+HamasakiFanz yep
♪ But I know another Chen is gonna come, oh yes it will ♫
Yay it's not often you guys do a regular Double Chen episode! Lately it's mostly the News episodes.
Eminem, the "grandfather thumb" is a gangster reference.

Dying at Taylor Swift being the town bus. So accurate lmao
more like a tour bus, you get on, do some sightseeing, and you get off and the next guy get on
My mind went in a different direction
ahah....
it's not accurate though. She only has 8 ex boyfriends in 12 years. While Ariana has 7 exes in 5 years. But no one calls her anything. I find it really disgusting that people just pick on Taylor for no reason. Not saying Ariana deserves it too. But why only choose Taylor???
its a degrading name
This is absolutely cool to see these guys crack up about stuff we have NO idea about. lol
cause we speak a da english
I know 😂 I'm laughing with them because they're so sweet, but I have no idea why.
LOL im chinese! and if u understand chinese it's very funny!

You guys have great chemistry together. I love your enthusiasm.
Oh God the Lady Gaga one! 'Coming Soon'! Pffftttt hahahahahhhaa!!!!
Yi is awesome! Keep including her :D
the reason why Lawrence got the nickname as eldest cousin is that Lawrence is a brand of watch, and watch = 表 （cousin）in chinese~
I burst out laughing and my dog just looked at me like I was crazy! Thanks for the video!
Lol, I feel like all these nicknames are just roasts xD.
Like if you agree.
nah
It is the Chinese thing, you know who gave the nick name to 1D? that nick name which literally means little crappy band? Their fans.
Planarwalk and AllDayGames and HydraLegendz Fan SAme
oh my God is funny!!! chinese people is so good in creation of nicknames for foreigns celebs!!!!!!
卷福 Juan Fu means curly Holmes.
I could listen to Yi speak Chinese all day. I think she has a pretty voice XD. It would be really cool to listen to Yi talk about heavy metal in Chinese... Soooo cool.
My favorite was "always wet" for Tom Hardy. 😂
I'm pretty sure lots of his fans are always wet too 😂

I love the way you all seamlessly flip into Chinese.
You can't get it unless you know Chinese... :) HAHAHAAH GOSH
Uh......didn't they just tell us why it's funny?
and people keep saying that its Asian
What are you talking about? You mean mandarin? I used the word Chinese so there won't be misunderstandings.
This video is awesome :D Hiddlestoner over here, love to see that reference Yi 😂, Dan I'm with you Henry Cavil for the win and Cumberbabe here too so yeah this made me super happy lol 💞
It's so funny that I can't stop laughing with you guys even I know all the nicknames!
Languages are fascinating to learn about and this is really entertaining! I just found out about the channel and I'm a few videos in :)
😂😂 I laughed at Taylor Swift's nickname. I already knew that in Chinese 'public bus' refers to a woman who has dates a lot/sleeps with people a lot.
iman cries over yoongi in Mexico we have some nicknames for it too like the glass water because you can't deny it to anybody, of the ambulance because it refuses no one. Or the pizza because when you call her she'll be at your door in 30 minutes hot and ready.
ambulance? that is too kind. that type of lady is not "can't refuse", she "welcome" everyone.
THIS IS AMAZING. I LOVE THIS.
卷福= curly hair+ Sherlock Holmes
A Chinese guy doing an impression of a Chinese guy singing Karaoke in English with a Chinese accent. Not something you hear every day...hahaha Love these 3!!
Who else died laughing at The Weeknd's and Lady Gaga's nickname. So funny. I am happy I was able to laugh with Double (triple) Chen despite the lack of knowledge of Chinese.
I would love to see a video of mike trying to name all of the 1st gen pokemon! That would be hilarious!
Also Where Have You Been's pronunciation is so similor to '威海油饼' (Weihai fried cake, a food of Weihai which is a city in Shandong province), then fans found out that most of the song names in album 'Talk That Talk' have similor pronunciation to Shandong 's places and things, so fans make a joke that OMG! Riri love Shandong so much! She sinigs Shandong so many times just in 1 album! She knows so many places and foods of Shandong! She's definitely the prince of Shandong!
Oh my goodness, thank you for making this video I haven't practiced my Chinese all summer and I realized I need to study xD Great video keep it up!
no, the nickname of Liuwen is because once a time, Liuwen was walking on the street, the her fan spotted her, and Liuwen said i am not Liuwen, she is my 大表姐, I will tell her that u like her. she mention this nickname from a show
You're all a riot, I really enjoyed this episode.
You should have added Justin Bieber = 丁日
It has a vulgar meaning, and they don't do vulgar nicknames, no matter how awesome it is.
卷福's 福 stands for 福尔摩斯 (Holmes)~~
New channel subscribed!! Watched your videos for a year now. Love you guys!! XD especially Mike
Damn, China. You cold. Haha.
Thank you for making vids more frequently
I agree about Matt Bomer! He's definitely a peacock 🙈
These are awesome! Thanks guys!
Tom Hardy as 'always wet' because of his character in Inception Eames to the first place. Sounds like 一摸湿: when you touch (him) you get wet. And the extensional meaning is he has girls wet... so...
This was hilarious!! It was just amazing. It was practically like stand up comedy. So clever!!
I find it funny how well the guy on the right speaks English with so little accent but he can speak Chinese just as well. I have a Chinese friend who lives in Singapore and he mainly speaks English but he has the stereotypical accent and he's constantly making fun of himself. lol
I love this channel!!!
“unlucky bus” means she's been ride like a public transit, duh
Only a few people in China call Taylor bus Mei.They are Taylor's haters.Most Chinese fans love Taylor and she is very popular in China.And not only Taylor has such hater's name,lots of other celebrities also have name like that.Her other Chinese nickname MeiMei is just like a name of little girl,nothing offensive.
Ariana is called little cow,because her voice sounds like Mariah Carey whose nickname is cow sister.But now most Chinese fans call her A Sister instead of little cow.
dangerous woman by ariana grande:单脚拉屎的女人
For you western English noobs: dangerous sounds like danjiaolashi or单脚拉屎 meaning shitting with one foot on the ground
单脚拉屎哈哈哈哈笑死我了哈哈哈哈哈
Please do more names this was hilarious!
Queen of Starbucks LOL
I think 卷福 means that he is a curly haired Sherlock Holmes, 卷 is curly, and 福 is Holmes.
Benedict literally means blessed in Latin...
Loving your videos 👍
Now I want to learn chinese.
good luck, the language isn't easy to learn, but it's BEAUTIFUL
I'm from hong kong but i never found the beauty of Chinese.... sad
I love your profile pic.
Love your shows and thanks for the hot oil recipe
Double Chen didn't really get some of those nick names
OR
They just get those information from something written by someone who is not so good at Chinese.
And now she has that much more songs that are bops
you guys should do a teaching segment. like "Learn chinese with us" or something...
A new channel!
Stone Face Girl hahaha omg! hahahaha I literally stopped the video to comment Stone Face Girl haha I mean I agree with China. Kristine has the talent of no emotion. XD
im chinese but not from mainland and when i went to LA for studies and met some mainland chinese, i learned this habit from them of giving ppl nicknames. so among us chinese we have funny names for the ppl we dont like/gossip about and everytime we talk about it we end up laughing in tears or on the ground.
Funny to know!!! Cuz my mom is turkish she does it to.. my dad is cuban even hè does it hahaha.. my mother inlaw curaçao she gives every celeb. A funny name hahahaahah!!!
The Jay Leno name was on point. Haha! He does the voice for The Crimson Chin superhero in Fairly Odd Parents cartoon. He lives in Chincinaty 😂. Yes I still watch cartoons. Looking forward to the new channel.
why does yi keep covering her mouth when she is laughing she got a cut smile lol
asians do that
it's considered rude to show your teeth/expose your mouth as you laugh; similarly, when you eat, you chew with your mouth closed. also, it's more intended toward women as its considered unfeminine.
Its a polite manner way of laughing. Don't show your teeth
Are you guys going to do the part 2 ?
carly rae jepsen released one of the best albums last year and y'all gonna say she's just a 2 hit wonder...ok.
Fayerie Leow I enjoyed the video. I wasn't hating on them, I was just commenting on something they said so...I don't understand your sass. Not every comment has to be about the main subject of the video.
agree.
hmm Taylor is nicknamed Mei Mei because of her unlucky experience with the music awards in her early career. She got nominated for tones of awards for quite a few years without winning any. That where that came from. Has nothing to do with her love life. The 'Gong Jiao Mei' name then built on 'Mei Mei' and refer to the fact that a lot of people can 'get on' a bus (gong jiao).
There's a few naughty innuendos on your list,such as ''Coming soon,Always wet and Furry and cute''.

can you do something like this for korean idols? zjznjssk it would be interesting since they know them better amd they even have hanja names
“Always wet” in fact is a common joke in Chinese used to call a teacher. Because “Always Wet” pronounce the same as “Teacher” in Chinese. People usually use it to call porn actor/actress, and sex comic book author.
Yi, you might as well do the whole video in Chinese, you were talking chinese for most of it
That's the thing with bilingual people, yknow, we switch languages as we like (if the other person is also speaks the languages)
Yeah, I tend to drift into chinese if all my group speaks it
Did you even watch the video?
+chillchillpill yes
Then shut it with the snaky comments.
