These are the translations (English, with Kanji, just Hiragana and Katakana, Romanji) used in the video.

"She had a diamond hidden in her hand."

彼女は手に隠れたダイヤモンドを 持って いました

かのじょはてにかくれただいやもんどをもっていました

Kanojo wa te ni kakureta daiyamondo o motte imashita.

"He entered the room with a glass of champagne."

彼はシャンパンのグラスを 持って 部屋に入ってきました

かれはしゃんぱんのぐらすをもってへやにはいってきました
