I think this is the worst challenge

'cause I take compliments like a grandma takes tea.

Like, thank you.

Thank you son. Thank you so much.

(upbeat music)

Hi, I'm Winston Duke.

And I'm Letitia Wright.

And we are doing a compliment battle for Teen Vogue.

(dramatic music)

Okay, you first.

Oh yeah, you ready?

No actually, me first Okay.

Keep flying that flag bro,

Great to show the world, ha, you cracked.

Great to show the world how important it is to dream

and indeed hard work pays off.

Proud of you.

Aw.

That was your first compliment.

Letitia.

(laughing)

You are so easy.

Okay, go ahead.

Letitia, you are so inspiring.

I can't wait to watch Black Panther.

That's so sweet.

Okay, I think you're gettin' a crush.

Don't, don't, don't, don't get a crush.

Dreams really do come through.

Winston Duke, I feel personally inspired by your story.

Keep soaring higher and the world is about to see greatness.

We are counting down to this.

Pressure for you.

(laughing)

That's a lot, right?

You know, but we already did the work, so it's there.

He's really amazing as M'Baku.

And she is the princess Shuri.

(laughing)

Obviously, I was hype to see Black Panther

before this episode of Black Mirror really solidified

how ready I am for Letitia Wright to snatch

my hair follicles as Shuri.

Why would I want to snatch anyone's hair follicles?

(laughing)

Oh, God.

Thank you, but no thank you.

I don't wanna snatch anyones--

Are you mad?

That's a com--

Sometimes you gotta give the people what they want.

They're talking about like snatching wigs off

and stuff, that's just really weird.

Okay.

Great job, Winston.

You're an inspiration to many Tobago Youths.

Dare to dream.

Dare to execute that dream.

This is so, I'm gonna cut to Cella.

And bark it from the mountain, the mountains.

I have been watching.

From the mountains.

Give Letitia Wright all the awards right now.

Wow.

Exclamation point.

She's amazing in this episode.

I can't wait to see more of her in Black Panther.

Hands, hands, hands.

You got three of them.

#blackmirror.

That's so dope.

I'm most excited about your performance.

You are killing these looks, oh my god.

Oh, well.

Did I write this one?

I think this one, this one is me.

Big up Letitica Wright, heart, Guyanese flag.

Gine, and he was gonna say--

Guyanese flag.

She's acting in the upcoming Black Panther film, fire.

That's amazing.

I told you, I'm such a grandma of compliments.

That's amazing.

These kids these days.

Amazing, this film is so important

and socially and politically groundbreaking.

It is, it is important.

It's really important and it's gonna offer

a lot of people to see people who look like them

in positions of power and have agency in their lives.

That's pretty fun, it's pretty cool.

Yeah, it's pretty dope.

Letitia Wright is unbelievably amazing.

That is all, #humans.

That's so kind and sweet.

Last one.

Winston Duke is one of the best actors out there.

Saw him POI.

I look forward to the day wins an Oscar.

Aye.

[Letitia] POTUS.

Aye, that's the best compliment.

You wrote that yourself.

These were really great.

I would just tell Letitia this stuff all the time.

I think she's unbelievably amazing, that's all.

Awe, compliments are cool.

I get really shy with stuff like that

because you know, if it gets to your head

you'd be walking around telling people,

where are my rose petals.

So I just kind of say bless you like a grandma

and just move on.
