Mariah Carey Nails 'Bottle Cap Challenge' With Multi-Octave Voice
Another challenge has taken over the internet.
The Bottle Cap Challenge went viral when Taekwondo fighter and instructor Farabi Davletchin posted a slow-motion video on his Instagram account on June 25, showing him doing an amazing kick, knocking a bottle cap off a bottle of water without knocking over the bottle itself.
Davletchin then challenged Jason Statham along with Conor McGregor, Jackie Chan and Jean Claude Van Damme. A week after English action-thriller actor Statham posted his video, helping launch the challenge, many celebrities such as John Mayer and Guy Ritchie have since gotten into it with each attempt trying to outdo the previous ones. Take for instance, Kendall Jenner did it while riding a jet ski. Ryan Reynolds, on the other hand, posted a video of his artistic and hilarious fail where he slowly builds it up until, at the very end, he kicks the whole bottle and breaks it.
Some attempts were comedic, some were successful, and some were just downright impressive but none can beat what the “Songbird Supreme” did.
When Mariah Carey took on the challenge, she absolutely killed it.
The singer posted a video on Instagram captioned “Challenge accepted! #bottlecapchallenge.”
The video starts off with Mariah clad in glittering corsets looking as if she’s gracefully preparing to do a kick but at the very last minute, she takes fans by surprise by using her astonishing skycraping voice and hitting a high note, hand on ear, as the bottle cap magically flies off. The pop diva then smiles triumphantly as she walks away from the camera.
Ex-husband Nick Cannon wrote “Hilarious!!!” in the comments. Ruby Rose, star of “Batwoman,” also showed her admiration to Carey’s video writing, “This is what they call a win.”
Compared to many other viral challenges, the Bottle Cap Challenge seems fairly harmless, especially if you are physically able to pull off a roundhouse kick. Although, unlike the Ice Bucket Challenge, it does not have any agenda such as raising money for lifesaving research but at least people are not risking their lives eating Tide pods or jumping out of moving cars, injuring themselves in the process.
