Howie Mandel had fun with fellow America’s Got Talent judge Heidi Klum’s new song “Chai Tea with Heidi” in a funny video on his TikTok account. Klum recently debuted the track, featuring Snoop Dogg, as a new opener for the upcoming season of Germany’s Next Topmodel.
Howie Mandel Dances to Heidi Klum’s Song
In a new TikTok video, Mandel appears in a split-screen with Klum, who dances to her song “Chai Tea with Heidi.” On Klum’s side, she busts a move in skimpy outfits and high heels. On Mandel’s side, the comedian stands in his closet, wearing different outfits as he tries to copy Klum’s moves.
At one point, Mandel even wears a blond wig while dancing to the electronic tune. At the end of the video, he appears briefly without a shirt on. As he wrote in the caption of the clip, “she couldnt keep up #try.”
Klum posted the black and white video of herself dancing on her own TikTok account, writing, “This was so much fun for me learning this dance.” She added the hashtag #keepdancing. Mandel clearly took her advice to heart.
The two America’s Got Talent judges have a cute friendship that they frequently share on social media. Klum told Jimmy Kimmel last year that Mandel was the “only person” who checked in on her every day when she was out sick from AGT in 2020.
Klum also taught Mandel how to walk in high heels on the show’s set last year. ““Heidi, my best friend Heidi, she doesn’t sit still,” Mandel told Kelly Clarkson. “She’s got the energy of a 5-year-old and I was commenting on the fact that I can’t imagine what it’s like to walk in heels.”
Mandel wasn’t sure the supermodel’s boots would fit him, but it turns out that Klum has pretty big feet, so he was able to try them on. The resulting video was hilarious.
