During her appearance on The Tonight Show, Céline Dion and Jimmy Fallon challenged each other to sing a variety of unexpected songs in the style of various musicians. Céline’s Cher impression was spot on, but her Sia at the end made us spit out our coffee.

(PG-13: Language) With the exception of his Christopher Walken as the High Sparrow, YouTuber Scheiffer Bates’ impressions of Game of Thrones characters are as impressive as Jon Snow’s plot armor. “He’s good. He’s very good.”

Actor Ricky Gervais thinks that the guys on YouTube who rattle off a bunch of impressions are just a bunch of showoffs, and he told Jimmy Fallon that he can do it better. Though Ricky has a much looser definition of what an impression is than real impressionists do.

Redditor SentioVenia’s son’s friend works at Target and sometimes staves off boredom by using different accents when it’s time to advise customers that the store is closing. Okay kid which one is the real you?!

Impressionist Brock Baker returns with another round of hilarious vocalizations, this time taking on a variety of classic cartoon characters from Mickey Mouse to Hank Hill. His Zoidberg is so spot on, he could have stood in for Billy West.

(PG-13: Language) Impressionist Brock Baker used Face Swap Live to project the celebrities’ faces on his own while he’s impersonating them. The results are hilariously awful, but his voice is spot-on as usual. His take on Louis CK is uncanny.

Vanity Fair shares some of the impressions that didn’t make the cut in Ross Marquand’s nano-impressions video. They’re just as good as the ones in the final video, but they were excluded because they were too long.

Jimmy Fallon dusts off his uncanny Bob Dylan impression to cover Drake’s transcendent hip hop single Hotline Bling to the tune of Positively 4th Street. The flowered hat is a nice touch, even though it looks awful on Jimmy.
