Stereoboard has unearthed what has got to be one of the weirdest and frankly indecent videos on the web today - a clip of a woman, known as Mando, literally ‘blacked up’ for a cover performance of Stevie Wonder’s ‘Part Time Lover’ for a TV show.
Called ‘Your Face Sounds Familiar’, the clip - which you can see below - sees a contestant taken backstage after seemingly telling the host that she’d be performing Stevie Wonder’s ‘Part Time Lover’ for the audience and the judging panel.
But, simply covering the song wasn’t enough - she or the producers thought it was necessary for the contestant to be covered in skin paint and ‘blacked up’, and even pretend to be blind, in what is a seriously disrespectful display.
Painfully cringey to watch - though admittedly uncomfortably funny - the producers and contestant seemingly have no shame about the performance. But YouTubers seem to agree that its pretty messed up - one user wrote:
“What in the love of all that is good and decent... is this fucking madness!?!?!”
While another said:
“I have now seen the craziest thing will ever see.... right?”
Your Face Sounds Familiar has just been given its UK debut, having premiered on ITV back in June - the final takes place on August 3.
