When it comes to tickling the funny bone, comedian Celeste Barber is a whizz at making the masses howl with laughter.

The Aussie has made a name for herself with her stand-up shows, but of late, she's become infamous for hilariously imitating celebs on Instagram. Her recent spoof of scantily clad models had her 9.6 million followers in fits of giggles.

Usually taking jabs at the glitzy world of celebs and runway stars, her latest gag lands with an extra punch of comedy.

Celeste, flaunting her comedic chops to her legion of fans, took a stab at pulling off a basketball trick shot, inspired by a model donning nothing but a sports bra and cheeky briefs nailing a three-pointer. The influencer sported the daring ensemble and did a twirl attempting to net the basketball from afar.

While the model swished the ball through the net with ease, Celeste's attempt was comically off the mark, her effort diverging quite spectacularly from the intended target. Despite the mishap, her followers couldn't help but roar with laughter.

She quipped in her caption: "Hey, @aus_opals my contact details are in my bio."

Her parody sent the like counter skyrocketing, flooded with comments gushing over her antics. One fan exclaimed: "To be honest I can't believe how close that was. Skills." Another chimed in: "The first video made me uncomfortable! But you made me laugh. Love your content."

A third admirer confessed: "Well, I don't see much difference." Fans were left in stitches as the comedian demonstrated just how challenging it is to nail a three-pointer. They were equally entertained by her imitation of a model's outfit, which was a hit among her followers.

Celeste is known for posting comical parodies on her Instagram, where she recently poked fun at an influencer's "energy shifting" dance.
