I love how she laughs at almost everything Monk says.

She has immense talent. She makes it look so easy switching back and forth between monkey and her. Salute🙏

Ok, Im a bit late to the Nina fan club. AWESOME ventriloquist, brilliant comedien, fantastic actress (the character she has produced for the monkey is perfect). This particular routine really highlights her brilliance. Even when she completely exposes the mechanics of it all, its still somehow totally convincing.

[nsdesu]

She is so freaking brilliant and beautiful

[MateoKupstysChica]

this is one of the most amazing performances I've seen! the way she did the meta-reference was majestic! <3

[superviewer]

Talented in many ways. I can't imagine the learning curve of this skill.

[TheHorsebox]

Without doubt, the best ventriloquist of all time.

[robertfrost]

OMG I love this woman! Always a little twist in her shows, something new...just so funny!

[shadowjack]

Second time I've found this tonight. I laughed just as loud. What a fresh look at the art.

[whittakerdanielj]

I have seen this act several times. Amazing every time.

[marcos]

Some members of the audience looked so confused about the whole thing.

[faintsherin]

monk can't speak the bilabials /p/ /b/ but Nina is brilliantly using this particular accent to get around with it.

[Kenstar]

That was awesome! Ventriliquism is a serious skill

[laineywright]

I love this girl! Nina is so funny. I've watched a bunch of her Youtube clips and can't stop laughing.

[danitestalkr]

Oh wow, holy shit, the last bit, it's amazing

[leonardomattarmonteiro]

Wow!
Bloody brilliant!
3 minutes in & I'm already a HUGE fan.
Ventriloquists are demigods.
Err...DEMIGODDESS
I adore you NINA CONTI
✊🤘🤘🖤

[lavonclaxton]

Absolutely talented and beautiful great artist 👍✌️😆❤️

[miguelBT]

She’s clever using that particular accent because it leans into speaking thru the teeth.🧠

[williamrobinson]

This is a great version of the sketch. A few will have picked up on the Jim Henson reference. Wonderfully capable to be freaky at the end there. 🤣🌟👍
