    Am I the only one who cries every time I watch the video? Like... she's just so humble, she wasn't expenting it and her speech was so honest and simple. I hadn't even watched the book of mormon the first time I watched this and I felt super happy for her, you can tell she's worked her way to the top.

    My friend and I got to meet her after the show the other night and she and the rest of the cast were THE nicest people taking pictures and signing autographs and thanking us for coming and asking us if we liked the show... as if they weren't the biggest thing on Broadway.. Kudos for such a talented sweet and humble cast!!

    • @princesslayzie
      @princesslayzie  7 лет назад +11

      Ozzie is Nikki's nephew (her brother's son). He was born with health problems, but I believe he's now doing better than was expected by the doctors, hence referring to him as a "miracle". As far as I know, she has no children of her own.
