Whoopi did an awesome job doing the voice of Shenzi, and it's SO cool that she played Shenzi on stage once again for a while. Not to mention portraying Rafiki!
i loved it how she was the VOICE of Shenzi and during one Part actually do the Very character in the Show that she voiced that's how i view her as one of my childhood Idols
I wish they trained her to play Shenzi only for one night, because all she had to learn is to manage her puppet head piece, & maneuver in that suit & I guess, hand stilts. That way she can maneuver faster. Other than that, she remembers her lines from the show. No problem. Easy peasy breezy!
Take 1: Something exciting I'm supposed to yell, but I forgot what it was. Take 2: You won't find him here! The king has risen! Nope, he has returned! Take 3: Whoo, look at Whoopi flyyyyyy... Yes, it's me. Who'd ya think it was?
KingdomHeartsFan3211 can we just appreciate the possibility that she knew this would be aired and said all those things on purpose just to make us laugh? If she did know, she has a good sense of humor 😅
This video just makes me laugh an smile so much that my whole body hurts! I love Whoopi and the show is amazing! Definitely wish I was apart of that audience that night! X'D
That was my favorite part! I've seen the musical twice now, and that just made me crack up!! (It's a funny scene anyway, but then to have Whoopi get the lines wrong made it that much funnier!) XD
every one watching the show in the beggining: yawn...... whoopi: UR ALL GETTING A PAIR OF FREE TICKETS TO THE LION KING!!!!!!!! EVERY ONE: AAAAAAAAAH OMG YAY WE LOVE U WHOOPI AAAAH YAAAY!!! if a person hears the word "free" THEY GO WILD !
@CleeGuy2009 well actually if you look at the mouthing and hand expressions, timon is the one waving and you see his mouth moving, and pumba is just looking....but honestly doenst matter who said it cuz it made the scene funny, it didnt matter who said it
