Meet the couple behind the Boston accent video taking over TikTok and Instagram
"Andover native Romano Duncan, 25, has the kind of "drawped ah" Boston accent that turned Rob Mariano into "Boston Rob" on "Survivor." The voice of Duncan, is, as one Instagram commenter said - perhaps without even knowing Duncan's name - "the voice of Dunkin." The internet has a new favorite video - and I dare you to watch it only once. In fact, I need you to watch this now."
"Lowell native Kacey Levesque, a 2017 University of Rhode Island alum, filmed her boyfriend Duncan, a 2023 Plymouth State alum, playing the popular " Say The Word On Beat " game at their Gilford, New Hampshire home in December. For the uninitiated, the online game, popular on TikTok, is exactly what it sounds like. A screen shows you eight photos - for example, bear, pear, chair, hair - and you say the words as they light up until your tongue twists."
A video filmed in Gilford, New Hampshire captures Andover native Romano Duncan delivering a strong, dropped-r Boston accent while playing the viral "Say The Word On Beat" game. The clip features images like bear, pear, chair and hair that prompt rapid repetition and escalating volume, culminating in chest-thumping exclamations. The clip was recorded by Lowell native Kacey Levesque in December and highlights both participants' regional ties and college backgrounds. The performance quickly spread online, drawing affectionate comparisons to regional icons and prompting enthusiastic viewer reactions and widespread sharing across social platforms.
