I actually thought this had to be fake the first time I heard it. Fake or edited. Or a parody or a big goof or something….you know, win a Gold Medal and then during the interview goof around by talking like Mickey Mouse. But by all accounts it’s real. So I’m not presenting this to laugh at this girl or poke fun, but merely to say this is actually UNCANNY. A big congrats to her on winning gold, but the bigger story here is this voice. Close your eyes and you’ll believe you’re listening to Mickey Mouse talking about how he just won Gold: “MICKEY MOUSE VOICE” RUNNER BLOWS AWAY CRITICS FOR MEDAL FINISH! Femke Bol, known for her viral “Mickey Mouse” voice, led the Netherlands to a gold medal in the 4×400 mixed relay at the Olympics.pic.twitter.com/WEtaX6ZXwo — Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal) August 4, 2024 NEW: The woman who previously went viral for her “Mickey Mouse” voice makes an impressive comeback at the Olympics to give the Netherlands a gold in the 4×400. Femke Bol chased down the US team in the final turn of the 4×400 mixed relay to snatch the gold from Team USA.

When Bol spoke to the BBC in March after setting the 400-meter indoor world record, she did so with a particularly high-pitched voice that some X users compared to Mickey Mouse. “I swear if you close your eyes, you could convince yourself Mickey Mouse has just broken the 400m indoor world record for the Netherlands,” one post was captioned. “I saw this last night and she just seems [an] incredible, nicest human being and it’s an amazing accomplishment. But aye, this is all I could think of. Femke Bol you are fantastic.” Olympic fans stunned by track star’s ‘Mickey Mouse’ voice after crushing USA’s hopes https://t.co/FVn9Dp9EKu pic.twitter.com/qjUXA1oQjg — New York Post (@nypost) August 4, 2024 Voices are crazy things, aren’t they? Of course one of the most famous was the high-pitched Mike Tyson voice with the lisp, coming from the most dangerous man on Earth! Another famous example is (female?) Brittney Griner’s DEEP MALE voice — close your eyes and it’s impossible to not picture a big manly man making this sound: You Won’t Believe Brittney Griner’s Voice I’m not sure I have ever covered Brittney Griner on this site before. I just don’t find “her” all that interesting. At least that was until today….when I heard a video of “her” talking. If you’re like me and you’ve never listened to her speak before, you might be just as shocked as I was to hear this. Understand one thing….. The video I am about to show you has not been altered in any way.  This is her real speaking voice. Just watch and listen and then watch and listen again with your eyes closed: DEVELOPING: Brittney Griner appears to have released another video since several people on the internet were in disbelief about her voice. pic.twitter.com/tvwM7yucen — Dom Lucre | Breaker of Narratives (@dom_lucre) February 25, 2024 Backup: This is Brittney Griner. The sound is not edited in any way. This is “her” voice. Simple question: Is this a man? pic.twitter.com/MUQvboXXvr — DailyNoah.com (@DailyNoahNews) February 25, 2024 I know some of you will say “who cares” so I’ll address that. I care. I care if someone blatantly lies to the entire country. I care if someone pretends to be a woman so that person can play women’s sports and beat up on bio women. I care if that person breaks a law in another country and we have to trade real and dangerous prisoner to get them back (why did we do that again?). So it matters. Truth always matters. And now for those people who will say that video is edited or altered, I’ll give you a bunch more all showing that deep, billowy, manly voice: After hearing Brittney Griner speak, there is no doubt in my mind that he is a MAN who joined the WNBA because it is easier, much like Lia Thomas did with swimming. We should have known because he’s the only WNBA player who can dunk a basketball. LISTEN and tell me I’m wrong pic.twitter.com/5BXwxX4lVz — Alexander Sheppard (@NotAlexSheppard) July 28, 2023 But that’s not all…. Not only does dude sound like a man, dude also LOOKS like a man and walks around shirtless. I don’t care how “flat chested” a lady may be, I’ve never known an adult women who walks around topless. Have you? Take a look: Why is Brittney Griner shirtless in this video with no bikini top or anything? pic.twitter.com/jqgAf9zlG4 — Alexander Sheppard (@NotAlexSheppard) July 28, 2023 Backup here: I asked Grok if Brittney Griner was a man and Grok said no, but then claimed she was a “lesbian” married twice to women: Hmmmm, what if she’s just a man married to a woman? What does Occam’s Razor tell us? The simplest answer is usually the right one. So let’s apply it here…. The person LOOKS like a man, SOUNDS like a man, and has been married twice to a woman. What is most likely…. Option 1 — a very strange sounding woman who has no breasts to speak of who is a lesbian married to women. Option 2 — dude is a dude. What does everyone think? I’m not making any claim, just asking questions and reporting what I see with my eyes and hear with my ears…. This dude Chris May seems to be piecing things together: pic.twitter.com/Vp73iIPARc — Chris May (@Mays_Media1) February 25, 2024

The International Boxing Association (IBA) on Monday said that two fighters participating in Olympic women’s boxing failed a gender chromosome test. The IBA held a press conference to address the controversy surrounding Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan and Imane Khelif of Algeria. Despite both boxers previously failing IBA gender tests, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has permitted them to fight against biological females and has repeatedly issued statements claiming Yu-ting and Khelif are women, and the testing is of no concern to the IOC. IBA CEO Chris Roberts said during the presser that test results for the fighters “demonstrated the chromosomes we refer to in competition rules that make both boxers ineligible.” Roberts further explained that Khelif and Yu-ting were informed that they tested for XY chromosomes and were given the opportunity to appeal the findings to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The IBA, he said, offered to pay the majority of the appeal; Yu-ting did not appeal, and Khelif appealed initially but then withdrew the appeal. ?HAPPENING NOW?

Some journalists appear to be arguing with Dr. Filippatos, demanding he further clarify whether Khelif and Lin were born female. “The blood result looks and says, the laboratories, that these boxers are male.” pic.twitter.com/lgs1vxPeb4 — REDUXX (@ReduxxMag) August 5, 2024 The IOC, though, is standing by its position to allow the boxers to fight women. “These athletes have been competing in senior competitions for six years with no issues,” IOC spokesperson Mark Adams said, according to ESPN. “These women were eligible for this contest, remain eligible for this contest and compete in this contest.” “I cannot tell you if they were credible or not credible [gender tests] because the source from which they came was not credible and the basis for the tests was not credible,” Adams continued. “For that reason there was no consideration of whether they were correct or not correct because they had no bearing for the eligibility of boxing here.” Khelif and Yu-ting have made it to the semifinals and are guaranteed to medal after quickly defeating female challengers.
