对于他来说,他有过11个名字,你知道,作为吹牛老爹开始,再来是牛老爹,之后又是肖恩·科博。他总是改变,他总是不断推陈出新。这也是我想和你谈谈的,因为我认为这会很有趣。我们在推特上也有这项比赛,那里的人会写很有意思的歌曲,一个歌曲名称就是“吉米·贾斯廷的头发少了”,这和我的想法如出一辙,而不是我们用这个标题,那会非常有趣,如果我真的把你的头发...你知道我在说什么吗?(你们想要他这样吗?)你知道我在说什么。你知道,给我一点……我这里有个修边器。请坐在这里,稍微往前一点点。
哦,不,不,哦,我的上帝,你真的需要剪掉一些吗?
是的,当然,我会剪掉一些。我的意思是,事实上,我要做的,我给你剃头,如果可能的话。你会让我做吗?
好吧。
是的,好吧,让我们开始。我们要休息一下。”永不说永不”明天开始和谁……迪迪,迪迪!
我认为你不应该这样做。
迪迪,记住。
这是两个大哥哥要教你做的事情。
别听他的,他喝醉了。
我们很快会回来,贾斯汀·比伯,特拉维斯·巴克和一个光头稍后回来。
我喜欢。我真的很喜欢。
我也喜欢它,这…
你们认为呢?你们喜欢吗?
我的意思是,你必须要剃光。
你看起来就像年轻版的莱克斯·卢瑟。
是吗?
是啊。
是的,我也喜欢。
你看起来像迈克尔·乔丹。
我看起来像迈克尔·乔丹。
是的,非常好,这个头型会对你的篮球生涯大有用处。
我不知道,我想,我想它会帮我在篮球场做一些高难度的滞空动作。
是啊,你知道,人们就不会关注你的头发太多,他们只会专注…
他们只专注我的美丽,柔软,圆润的嗓音。
当然,还有你美丽光滑的头。我想我们也应该剃眉毛。(你想做的,让我们去做。)你知道,让我们把整个事情做好。
这是一个伟大的你,(谢谢你。)我真的感到非常自豪,我从来没有给任何人剃过光头。
你会喜欢它的,光滑如球,它不是…
嗯,非常平滑,当我刮胡子的时候,我会完全疯掉。
所以你是光滑迪迪。
我是你知道我是什么吗?我是比伯的理发师,从现在开始请这样称呼我。
比伯理发。
是的,我很喜欢它,所以你认为孩子们会担心这个?
我认为女孩子们是会难过,但你知道,她们会克服这一关的。
是的,她们会克服它。
