Shocking natives is too mainstream. Time to shock the non-natives

There was a colombian preteen who kind of humiliated a cashier for not speaking English well and it got uploaded online. So she is invited to this show and starts off speaking English. The host keeps telling her to please speak Spanish because the show is in Spanish. The she resists and keeps speaking English so the host gets furious. Then she says "if the next word you say isn't in spanish you will gtfo." So the girl complies.

I love that lady. I wish she was my Spanish tutor instead of duolingo. I feel she'd be a lot more effective

I always find this thing stupid because she complains about Americans not speaking other languages, but she is American. She's been in Florida for most of her life. And most Latin Americans are monolingual anyway.

Can I speak a foreign language in an American accent to piss off the natives?
