This had footage from two different performances. The clips of Oprah reacting was from Jennifer Hudson singing the same song at the Kennedy Center Honors. That’s why it looked goofy at the end when Colbert popped in.
Bruh...lol... she PLAYED Harriett. But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch her 2pt. episode on the Terrell Show, where you can hear her raw, live, acappella vocals, bc she is really amazing.
i cant believe this is your first time seeing this i literally watch this performance DAILY SHE IS AMAZING. Tasia killed it too but Cynthia will do something to you
her version of this song DEVVVOOOOOUURRRRRSSSSSSS. I remember I actually saw her in the colour purple about ten years ago before it was west end and broadway!! also you’re not tripping lol whoever edited this video for RU-vid edited in Oprah, Michelle etc clips from the Kennedy centre honours, they weren't actually in the audience
I saw her perform this live on Broadway in 2016. The tears were real! On this particular day, she had a cold and a fever over 100, yet she had already performed this song in two live shows, and she had trained for 3 hours (because she was gearing up to run a half marathon some months later). She is a beast 💜💜💜💜💜
Please react to her oscar performance, she got a standing ovation it was incredible, absolutely perfect. She co wrote the song aswell and was nominated for it.
React to 2018's black girls rock aretha franklin tribute, there were jazmine, ledisi, cynthia erivo, etc. All performances were epic! Nice reaction btw!
Ok so its 2yrs later 2023 shes now playing effing Elphaba the Green One(😂😂). Like were gonna get a soundtrack with her singing the Wizard and I... are you kidding? Fantasia is in the new Color Purple Movie (though it should be Cynthia). The budget and set of Wicked alone i think i would choose that job. And shes also Bi... so im secretly tryna shoot my shot at her 😂😂
She has a song from Harriet called Stand Up. Watch the live (from an awards show). Also her and Shoshana Bean did a Taylor swift cover of I did something bad.
I see people suggesting her Oscar perf and I agree but I would advice to hear the studio recording first (which I was obsessed with) and even see the movie but that’s a different story.
Crazy thing is they edited this version. Oprah, Obama & Michelle were all actually at Jennifer Hudson’s show when she performed this. Their reaction was to her performing this at Kennedy Center Honors in 2010. Now react to that ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
