00:00Brrrr.
00:01Brrrr.
00:02Brrrr.
00:03Brrrr.
00:04Brrrr.
00:05Brrrr.
00:06Hi, I'm Cynthia Erivo, and we're playing Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
00:11I'm not sure I have expensive taste.
00:15I'm not necessarily about how much it costs, but how it makes me feel.
00:20Now, I mean, here's the thing, regardless of which is more expensive or not, I'm not
00:29I'm not wearing these, because they're way too low.
00:32These are definitely higher.
00:33What do you look for in a good heel?
00:35Height.
00:37A lot of height.
00:41Oh yeah, but who cares about that?
00:44I'm not really an open toe girl,
00:47because I think you can get a bit more
00:48out of your close toe shoes.
00:50You can get more adventurous with the design on them.
00:53It's all quite soft, isn't it, this one?
00:55Well, actually, I don't know.
00:57Let's have a look.
00:59I'm gonna pad a bottom on that,
01:02way up here, and this one does not.
01:05This here is not necessarily padded hard,
01:10but I think it's these.
01:15Yeah, the color and the height.
01:24Headbones.
01:26These look, I really like the aesthetic of this.
01:29I'm used to seeing headphones like this.
01:32Ooh, they fold.
01:33That's cool.
01:36Is that connected?
01:39Base is good on it.
01:44Okay, not bad.
01:50Okay.
01:51I like these.
01:52I like the sound on these, and I might be totally wrong,
01:54but the sound is good on that.
01:56I'm gonna pick those.
02:01I thought I was gonna go with these, and I wasn't sure.
02:04I was like, am I just going for the aesthetics of it at all?
02:06Oh, well, here you go.
02:07Here you go.
02:14Two microphones.
02:15Is it for, like, karaoke or something?
02:17Which I never do, by the way.
02:19Welcome to use Bluetooth microphone.
02:22Okay.
02:23Power on.
02:25They're very, very chatty, aren't they?
02:27Do I need to speak into them?
02:29Oh, there we go.
02:29There's a speaker on either side of them,
02:31so you can hear oneself very clearly.
02:34One, two, one, two.
02:35Well, that's nice.
02:35There's a nice little reverb on that.
02:37That's very much clearer.
02:38And it would be hilarious if this was the most expensive one,
02:41because you should be upset with yourself if this is the case.
02:44What's your most unusual warm-up routine?
02:47I don't know that this is unusual,
02:49because I think most singers know how to do this.
02:51But it's just a trill, which is just a...
03:00I'm gonna go with this one because it just sounds nicer,
03:02but I'm sure I'm wrong again.
03:06Oh, good.
03:07At least I know something about sound.
03:15Okay, we have a nail polish, I believe, here.
03:18One is very, very bright.
03:20Let's see.
03:21So this is like a slightly muted, more army green, I guess.
03:24Less bright.
03:26Can I have some swatches, please?
03:27Thank you very much.
03:28Oh, that's very much nail varnish.
03:30You can smell that from a mile away.
03:35Pigment's very good.
03:37Lovely.
03:40Let's do the other one.
03:42I don't know that I would wear either, but I've probably worn something similar to this one.
03:47I haven't necessarily worn something that's as bright as this.
03:50Oh, that's good.
03:51Good old pigment on that immediately.
03:53Not necessarily a color that I would wear, but it's gone on very well.
03:59One brush is really, really wide. One brush is quite thin.
04:03I think this is the more expensive one because of the brush on it and how much pigment you get when it gets laid down.
04:11I may be totally wrong, but I think it's this one.
04:14You have peppermint tea, but there's more mint in this one than there is in that one for some reason.
04:29Regardless of what the cost is, I'm not drinking this tea because this, I think, is a green and peppermint, which is not fun, but this is very, very minty.
04:42This is like much lighter in here, and I can't tell if it's because it's not been steeped for long enough, but there's as much as you're going to get.
04:54Do you want to try it again?
04:56Do you want to try it again?
04:58Do you want to try it again?
04:59Do you want to try it again?
05:00Why on the Earth?
05:01No.
05:06It's like drinking an essence.
05:08I don't know which is more expensive, but I'm going to go with this one because it just tastes nicer.
05:16See?
05:17Told you!
05:23We have earrings here.
05:25One of them has a pierced back, which is better for me,
05:30and the other has a clip back.
05:33They are very dangly.
05:35They're both gold.
05:36One has a pink center.
05:38I don't know if I would wear
05:39either one of these earrings, to be honest.
05:42I think this is backed on leather.
05:44These feel quite light.
05:48These are, these are also quite light as well.
05:52I mean, I honestly couldn't tell you
05:53which is which, to be honest.
05:56Um, I mean, I guess I'll say this one
05:58because there's a lot more to them.
06:03Yeah, I figured, because not my style at all.
06:06Neither one of them.
06:12I have no idea.
06:13I couldn't tell you, for the life of me,
06:16what is more expensive between two pairs of black spectacles.
06:19I don't know.
06:20They're both spectacles with black frames and square.
06:25One is slightly shinier than the other, and one is matte.
06:30And it really just depends on what you want.
06:31I mean, one is just frame, one is a pair of readers.
06:36Well, I'm gonna assume if these are a pair of readers,
06:39they're easy to get.
06:40So I'm gonna pick this pair.
06:42I think we have roasted edamame beans here.
06:55I like the color on these more,
06:56because they're a little darker.
07:03I have no thoughts yet.
07:04That seems to have a new flavor, which is interesting.
07:12I don't know. I can't tell.
07:14They taste better.
07:15And I might be wrong, but maybe I just am a cheap date.
07:19So we'll go with this one anyway.
07:23Told you.
07:25It is what it is.
07:26I got a three out of eight, and that kind of stands to reason.
07:30That's all right.
07:32Be sure to check out my new album.
07:34It's called I Forgive You.
07:35Enjoy.
