Mom’s can never get a second to themselves. Children will find a way to interrupt any moment a mother might have to herself.
Yes, that includes going to the bathroom. Mothers know this struggle all too well, but it does not stop them from trying to get a moment of peace. Cinna Hembree thought she had a moment to herself, so she started to record herself singing and performing the “Cups” song from Pitch Perfect.
Cinna’s son video bombed her moment “alone” and made sure the spotlight would be on him.
Cinna started her “Cups” performance as a soloist.
Cinna has natural talent as a singer and was performing at her dining table. Cinna and her children sing together often, so hearing their mother sing in the kitchen was not anything out of the ordinary. Her ten year old son, Tucker, walks by about twenty seconds into her home performance. He starts off without even glancing in her direction.
Tucker is a responsible, where it counts, ten year old as the first thing he does in the kitchen is check that each stove burner has been turned off!
Tucker was minding his own business but his mom was keeping her eye on him. Every mother knows when their child is about to be up to trouble. Tucker grabs a jug, of what might be tea, and starts to drink straight out of the jug. This is when Tucker finally eyes his mother and realizes she is not just singing to herself, she is recording her performance.
Tucker sees the camera and knows this can be his big moment too.
It does not take more than a second for Tucker to completely forget his original reason for entering the kitchen.
Tucker finds a place in camera view right behind his mother and starts his own performance. Tucker is going to his mother’s total hype man and dance in the background. He starts off subtle but that does not last long. Tucker is a complete showman and he wants the focus on him. He is a hype man no longer, he is the head performer. In Tucker’s mind his mother is singing for his performance and not the other way around.
“I was just recording myself singing because I was bored, it’s something I do quite often, so Tucker is used to doing things like this … It really shows the kind of boy he is, he’s extremely funny and always goofing off … I’m so used to him being funny and silly that it didn’t knock my focus to begin with, I just let him continue doing his thing,” Cinna said.
Cinna, as every mother understands, let her child take over her own moment.
Cinna did not let Tucker break her stride but even she almost starts to laugh at Tucker’s antics near the end. Tucker pulls his shirt up and starts to dance with the shirt covering his face. He had the perfect shirt for his impromptu dancing because there is a skull on the inside of his shirt. He has replaced his own face with that of a skull.
You must wait until the very end to see Tucker’s belly rolling skills!
Cinna ends her “Cups” performance and asks Tucker if his dancing was necessary.
“Yes ma’m, it was. Sure thang,” he answers with a smile.
Tucker has no regrets.
