Celebrity Smart Ass Deluxe

“Celebrity Smart Ass Deluxe is a perfect marriage of a bulletproof method and commercial presentation all wrapped up into a wonderful new premium package.  AND thanks to the large index cards it’s using common objects everyone is familiar with. Celebrity Smart Ass Deluxe has a permanent place in my repertoire now...and you can add it to yours!”  -Bill Abbott 

Own the ultimate version of one of the new classics of stand up magic. Celebrity Smart Ass Deluxe comes complete with a set of large index cards with celebrity names pre-printed on them. And this is the largest Smart Ass deck that’s ever been produced, it’s a whopping 4 inches by 6 inches in diameter! The celebrity names can be seen clearly from the back of any large theater or banquet hall.

These pre-printed Smart Ass Index Cards are NOT over the counter index cards. We made these from the ground up and they are thick custom made cards with a linen finish, is similar to the way premium playing cards are finished.

And although they are not actual index cards they APPEAR exactly like index to the audience. The thickness accommodates large bold permanent marker on the cards with no bleed through.

With 2 new celebrity revelations to choose from, compact pop-up hamper for your volunteer to toss the cards into and a large black envelope with velcro enclosure tabs to keep the prediction safe, Celebrity Smart Ass Deluxe is the easiest addition to your show.

The Celebrity Smart Ass Effect:

You begin by telling the audience that you’d like to test their celebrity knowledge. Showing a box full of large index cards with celebrity first names printed on them you explain that you’re going to call out the celebrities first names and they’re to call back their last names. Going through the dozens of cards, you call out each celebrity's first name and the audience calls out the celebrity’s last name.  For example you say, “Paris!”  the audience says, “Hilton!”, you say “Leonardo!”  they say, “DiCaprio!”, you say “Lady”, they say, “Gaga!” etc.  To take the test to the next level you ask for the help of a celebrity expert from the audience.

A volunteer is invited to the stage, and shown a black prediction envelope. The prediction envelope is dropped onto the seat of a chair. And the volunteer is invited to sit on top!

Volunteer is handed the index cards and they’re instructed to cut half of the cards into each hand. Then dramatically they toss either half away into a mesh hamper you provide. Half of the cards that remain are cut by the volunteer and again either half is tossed away.

You spread the final half dozen cards left and the participant makes a final decision on one. The celebrity name is revealed to be Taylor (Swift)!

The spectator hands you the envelope they’ve been sitting on from the beginning and inside is a photo of Taylor Swift…at three months of age! A photo of a cute baby is revealed and the volunteer goes back to their seat to some polite applause and a lot of laughter!  You unfold the photo explaining that the you hope that no one is easily offended as Taylor is naked in this photo, and the baby is in fact, in the buff, when the photo is opened!  You then ask the audience if they think that Taylor looks cuter as a baby then she does now as an adult?  Suddenly you turn the large tabloid-size photo over to reveal a very large (grown up) head shot of…Taylor Swift!
