Jakarta –
DJ Andrea Henriette has been in the spotlight recently after frequently uploading funny videos and speaking Javanese even though he looks foreign. Apparently he had an unpleasant past that made him cry.
Andrea admitted that when she was little she cried because even though she looked Caucasian, she couldn’t speak English. Even though he himself is a descendant of Queen Elizabeth’s country.
“Dad is from England, mom is from Sulawesi. Born and raised in Salatiga. Now in Semarang. I used to cry because I was foreign but couldn’t speak English,” he said when met in the Mampang Prapatan area, South Jakarta, recently.
The owner of 86 thousand followers on Instagram @andreahenriette_ even took courses to speak English. He did this because he was often invited to chat in English.
“Often (addressed in English), not just outside the city, often in my own city. Take courses, and online courses at schools so you can speak English,” he said.
Andrea Henriette admits that he is more fluent in Javanese because he was born and raised on that island. He himself did not accept the condition that he could not speak English.
“I’m annoyed because I’m different myself, I don’t have black hair, I don’t. Then I can’t speak English. Yes, in the end I’m like this from Allah, I’m grateful, no, it’s okay,” he said.
Andrea also admitted that he had other frustrations apart from language. Because he is foreign, he often gets price shots from traders while traveling.
“In fact, sometimes there are sellers who give me food, I know the price is not that much, but they charge me because of their face, wow, this is probably a tourist. Then I reply using Javanese, the seller is shocked,” he concluded.
Now that content on social media is often highlighted, Andrea Henriette has appeared on TV shows several times. He is now even invited to appear in a comedy program on Trans 7 entitled Kampung Rasa with Parto Patrio, Dicky Difie, Rigen Rakelna, and Okky Lukman.
