The most amazing X-rated magic act you'll ever see

This is the act I saw in Sydney. Warning: It's not for the kids. But it is for adults who want to laugh their asses off. Her name is Ursula Martinez. Let's see David Copperfield do THIS.

Her parents must be very proud.

Sure beats David Copperfield....

and one of my verification words was, yes, haystack

Rinaldo said...

Do we REALLY want to see David Copperfield do this?

I wonder what it is about Australian entertainment. They're the ones who gave us Puppetry of the Penis.

Julian said...

Don't blame/give credit to Australia! Ursula Martinez is based in London. In fact, she is on her way back to London now.

(I was speaking a couple of hours ago to a friend of mine who took her spot in tonight's Sydney show - but with a very different sort of act.)

Damn, I wonder how long it'll take YouTube to find out about this. They do not look kindly upon nudity on their site.

Paul Duca said...

She is a true magician--she knows just HOW to keep the audience looking where they are supposed to...

estiv said...

Nice example of how to put together a stage act: she does only one magic trick but turned it into five minutes of material.

Scott Mumford said...

I like how the audience is so mesmerized--that she has to prompt them to hoot at key moments...

I thought Ken's consistent complaint about WHITNEY and TWO BROKE GIRLS was about the plague of vagina jokes? At bottom (oops) isn't that what this routine is?

And I agree with you, estly: she took one threshold "palming a small object" magician-beginner's gag and conflated it into almost five minutes.

I'm with Rinaldo re Copperfield...great act!

Jack Eason said...

I wouldn't mind but she is so butt ugly! LOL

If you look at her website they must be. They are in a nude cabaret show with her.

If you think she is a bad magician, it is because she isn't a magician. She is a writer and cabaret actress and I think she is funny.

Apparently, Ursula never heard the show biz adage, "Always leave them wanting more."

Geez.

Johnny Walker said...

I've always thought her act would be better if she made the audience more complicit by adding a narrative of sorts. For example, she "accidentally" reveals where she's hidden the handkerchief, and so is forced to remove an item of clothing to show she can do the trick without using it.

Each time she hides it, she's "caught" with another mistake, growing more frustrated, until she's down to her underwear. I then imagine a moment when she finally thinks she's done it, turns around to pick up her clothes, and the audience sees the handkerchief poking out the top of her underwear. And so on.

I just think it would be funnier that way.

Here's Ursula talking about that video. The interviewer is annoying, but Ms. Martinez comes across very well: Interview link

It's a friction' multi-camera shoot, yet she somehow seems surprised that this video exists?

It's called *drum roll* THE ARISTOCRATS!

Could have been worse, she could have looked like Lisa Lampanelli or Joan Rivers.[and with all the facelifts J.R. has had done, that girl's vagina would have been up between her breasts by now]

jbryant said...

I wonder if she takes bookings for this routine when she's on her period. Maybe that's why she uses a red hankie?

Perry Lambert said...

Unbelievable...wow...what a great background!

Johnny Walker said...

@wavedeform I'm think she was surprised it was put on the internet. It's clearly professionally shot. Maybe the owners promised her it wouldn't appear online. Maybe they told her she wasn't being filmed. Who knows. I guess her show about it would reveal all, so to speak.

Craig Edwards said...

And all to the tune of "The Inspector," the cartoon version of Inspector Clouseau - with the voice of Pat Harrington - that ran with The Pink Panther for years! Magic and memories all in one clip! Nice one, Mr. Levine!

Hey, I liked it.

jbryant said...

At least this didn't involve ping pong balls.

The video was shot at Just for Laughs / Juste pour rire, the annual Montreal comedy festival as the sign on the curtain behind Ursula says. http://www.hahaha.com/ I believe all the shows are professionally videoed. The Canadian Broadcasting Company often and Canada's Comedy Network regularly have scheduled shows using video from the festival, but I don't think Ursula's act has yet been shown.

Infauxtainer said...

Don't know about you but delighted she stopped at her va-jay-jay.

jbryant said...

Next time, her finale will involve an X-ray.

Steve said...

I'm surprised that Ken thought that was funny at all, much less laugh your ass off funny.

It was campy, predictable, not witty, and tasteless. Other than that, hilarious. And the magician part of it was lame.

Nice body and very talented as well

Isn't that Ursula Undress? She was in one of the James Bond movies, wasn't she?
