An American woman looking for love wound up in stitches after she changed her dating app location from her home in New York to London so she could hear "sexy British voices."
Once TikToker @teamfreebritney changed her location preferences on the Hinge dating app in the hopes of satisfying her craving for UK accents, she came across a profile for Harry Kersh from London.
She got the British voice she was looking for alright, but "sexy" definitely did not apply here.
What she got instead, however, was a comedic performance from Kersh that you could say was Oscar-worthy.
The TikToker's clip started out with her hand over her mouth while listening to Kersh's voice mimicking Kermit the Frog in response to Hinge's request for best celebrity impression.
While he nailed the timbre of the lovable Muppet's voice, the words out of his mouth were certainly not on-brand for the character.
The twist was Harry directly quoting Will Smith's venomous rant aimed at Chris Rock after he slapped him hard across the face at this year's controversial Academy Awards ceremony.
For those of you who were living under a rock, Smith physically assaulted the comedian on the Oscars stage after Rock used a G.I. Jane reference to make fun of Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head.
Smith's inflammatory words directed at Rock after returning to his seat were the ones Kersh used for the voice prompt but in the voice of Kermit.
"Ok, here's what it'd sound like if Kermit the Frog slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars instead of Will Smith," said Kersh in the soundbite.
He continued in Kermit's voice:
"Keep Miss Piggy's name out of your f'king mouth."
It was a riff on Smith's actual words, which were, "Keep my wife's name out your f'kn mouth!"
People were howling over Kersh's impersonation and they were also impressed.

The clip of Harry's impression of the irate frog racked up over 2.1m views and 418,000 likes.
When speaking to the Mirror about his online fame, Kersh said he found it to be "flattering."
"I'm finding [going viral] funny! I put it on the profile to get some laughs and I'm glad it's having the intended effect," he said.
Whoever said having a sense of humor was a sexy attribute really nailed it.
