+OurlostIsland "Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?" "I HAVE" "Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?" "SOMETHING FUNNY..." That "something funny" gets me all the time
Griffin As much as that would be amazing, roles are dictated much more by physical appearance than by voice type or technique in musical theatre than in classical operatic roles where it’s dictated more by the type of voice you have. She’s truly fantastic, but myself being a big singer like her, I don’t see our roles expanding beyond older women, antagonists, and comedic relief because everyone wants the “classic” Disney princess look like Laura has.
@@lemonarizonatea This is exactly why I created The Broadway Body Positivity Project. We deserve better than to be typecast solely on our appearance. Plus size performers could easily master the ingenue, leading man/lady, etc. if we fight for an even playing field!
The Broadway Body Positivity Project it’s not even just about plus size, it’s about the disabled too. everyone focuses on us but never disabled actors who honestly need much more recognition
My organization advocates for Plus Size, Disabled, and Little Person actors, as well as other communities of people who made experience marginalization in theatre (e.g. actors with noticeable skin disorders, exceptionally tall or short actors). If you check out my Facebook, I post about all sorts of body types (@broadwaybopo).
John Parker Broadway did? How? :( Fat-shaming is uncool. I know Bonnie sang a song that was majorly self-fatshaming in Maybe this Time "I'll get skinny" so I'm not sure if you meant Bonnie and not Broadway (which was beautifully sung, although the humor was lost on me I still love her. )
I always think at 2:47 that there's like a third harmony coming but it's in fact an audience member screaming ON PITCH and in a way that makes it even more special.
It's still amazing to me that Laura Osnes' career started from a random tv competition that got her the part of Sandy on broadway and now she's like this famous star that people are obsessed with
She makes it look so easy. One of those people who has the voice, and the ability to perform physically at the same time in a very natural and charismatic way.
Right Laura did audition! I met her at a breakfast meet and greet, and she mentioned that at the audition, all the girls had to glide around with Heelies in crop tops😂
"Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?" "SOMETHING'S FUNNY..." I died on that part.. Hahaha.. I watched this video for 50 times, quite literally (PS: Is their pianist the conductor in Broadway's Cinderella?)
Dude.... the guy on piano is having the time of his life and I am living for how he is eating up this experience while playing some top notch notes for these beautiful singers.
I love that I keep coming back and watching this. Its just SO good. My favorite part is 7:12 when Laura gets into "princess mode" and Bonnie mouths 'what the f***' off to the side! HAHAHA!!!!
This is my comfort video and I can’t thank y’all enough for it. I have a chronic illness and my dog is dying and Ive been watching this on repeat because of the serotonin boost it gives me. Legitimately, from the bottom of my heart, thank you 💕
Bonnie’s range is incredible! I’m so glad I stumbled across this video as it introduced me to this amazing singer/performer. She’s super funny and seems like she has a great personality. I hope she gets more leading/main cast roles! Laura is absolutely fantastic as well ☺️
OMG - I would love to have seen this live. I would be so cracking up on both of them - they have great chemistry on stage. LOL! Laura and Bonnie are hilarious! My favorite part is Laura singing Colors of the Wind and we see Bonnie trying to upstage her like Aretha did on everyone during Divas Live 99! LOL.
Oh my goodness... This is so hilarious.. I played this over and over again for hours and still laughing... Genius!! Cannot stop laughing at the "Head Voice" part!! LOL
Um. I would like to see this Bonnie Milligan cast in literally everything.
Garrett Watts hey what’s up. How’s it going.

Yasssd
it’s like 1am for me and i’ve been going down this rabbit hole for 3 hours so far and I love it here
"Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?" "I HAVE"
All I want in life is Bonnie Milligan's range
WORD
And tone... and control... and literally everything
HON👏🏻EST👏🏻LY👏🏻
SAME
(me being a low alto)
"but if you walk the footsteps of a stranger -"
"JUST TRY IT."
"You'll learn things you never knew you never knew"
"IT'S A MAMA BEAR!"
+OurlostIsland "Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?"
"I HAVE"
"Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?"
"SOMETHING FUNNY..."
That "something funny" gets me all the time
*sound of someone banging a table in laughter*
its a mama bear!!! HAHAHA
lol good one
"You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew."
"ITS A MAMA BEAR."

“Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned”
“Somethin’s funny!”
THATS what she's saying! I kept hearing 'It's ObamaCare"
Maddie Jay yesss
@@starpupilz LMAO 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@starpupilz i should have not read your comment. Now i cannot unhear it
Bonnie, I hope Disney creates a role just for you in one of their animated musical films.
You are fabulous.

you don't know the meaning of "ANIMATED MUSICAL FILM" do you?

THAT PART OF YOUR WORLD HARMONY!!!
Geraldine Davila OMG YES THANK YOU. I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
my ears were blessed lol
goosebumps
Goosebumps
EXACTLY.
- "...or asked the grinning wildcat why he grins"
- "Something's funny"
Brilliant!
"You want thing-ama-bobs? Gurl, Ive got twenty"
I kind of feel like that part was inspired by Jeremy Jordan's Disney medley🙃 they're both amazing
now i REALLY want jeremy and bonnie to sing their hearts out together omg
That moment when she inhales and becomes a princess is everything.
reflection killed me... i mean it. i am dead right now.
+grunxs R.I.P.
We all expected the Lea Salonga's version. But she did the Christina's one, I bursted in laughter 😂😂
How's the afterlife? =)
7:18 - "It's not Disney... It's not Disney... It's Rodgers and Hammerstein". HAHAHA
Oh, i was wondering wat she sed lol
css rbr but the fact is Disney made a film out of it, so its definitely disney lol
Tim Tran Bonnie mentions that, but the song is not, it's Rodgers and Hammerstein. haha
Jamie O'Connell the Brandy version wasn't done by Disney
@@conho4898 wait is the Disney movie cinderella based of the musical??
Laura: Have you ever heard the wold cry to the blue corn moon?
Bonnie: I HAAAVVVEE
I want Bonnie to play Ursula so badly. It would be GLORIOUS.
Too bad Broadway fat shamed one of the most badass bitch big girl roles of all time...#shame
John Parker Broadway did? How? :( Fat-shaming is uncool. I know Bonnie sang a song that was majorly self-fatshaming in Maybe this Time "I'll get skinny" so I'm not sure if you meant Bonnie and not Broadway (which was beautifully sung, although the humor was lost on me I still love her. )
+Nic Mains I think that user meant because they cast Ursula as someone skinny in the Broadway production
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh.
Nah… definitely Ariel.
"eshshhsh, head voice" "oh head voice, got it." EFFING HIGH-LARIOUS.
You can tell when Laura is in princess mode by the shrieking breaths??
I always think at 2:47 that there's like a third harmony coming but it's in fact an audience member screaming ON PITCH and in a way that makes it even more special.
Right, it's someone screaming the 5th upper harmony in their head voice wtf
Why is no one talking about that insane harmony starting at 2:47 during "Part of your World "?! DAMN!!!!! That was perfectly brilliant!!!!! ❤😭🤗❤
Gina Rodriguez that.
YESYESYES CHILLS
How is no one talking about her part in Reflection "Somehow I cannot Highhhh-EYE-EYYYYED" TOOK ME OUT!!!!
“have you ever heard the wolf cry...”
“I HAVE”
i’m screaming sjsj
2:45 Um, why is Bonnie not more known? Cause she has an amazing range!
She's getting her moment now thanks to Kimberly Akimbo. I admit I didn't know who she was until I saw kimberly but now I am obsessed with her
I'm still amazed that neither of them laughed throughout the whole thing.
the Pocahontas bit was hilarious! these ladies are awesome
Someone in the audience has had two bottles of wine and is LOVING this!
Who wouldn't
The aggressive slamming/dropping of silverware from the absolute chaos of laughter during the Pocahontas bit is my ABSOLUTE favorite 😂😂😂
I loved Laura nodding her head and going "Yes," during her Reflection.
It's still amazing to me that Laura Osnes' career started from a random tv competition that got her the part of Sandy on broadway and now she's like this famous star that people are obsessed with
Also Bonnie's belt is RIDICULOUS
Her Christina Aguilera impersonation is to die for! :D
6:17 SOMEONE CALL NATALIE WIESS AND ASK HER TO BREAK THAT RIFF DOWN!! please
_kanona yasss Nat is a queen
SHE’S AN TONY WINNER BABYYY!!!
It’s about damn time!
Bonnie's random insertions during Colors of the Wind was hilarious to me. They were great together.
OMG when Bonnie went straight into "Reflection" cracked me up soo much because she is amazing!
So this is like the millionth time I've watched this...
Cynamin Newell
me too. My friend and I are gonna do it in a talent show. it's gonna be so fun. I love it
Kai Daniel cool
Awesome! film it ;)
WickedIceQueen
Ok
Laura Osnes needs to play Anna in Frozen on Broadway!!!
Alexis V agreed!!!!
Marika Marklin She's such a princess and she totally has the range for it!!!!
Bonnie should play Elsa.
@@Almando Oh gosh yes, whilst Laura is Anna, that would be amazing!
She makes it look so easy. One of those people who has the voice, and the ability to perform physically at the same time in a very natural and charismatic way.
when i'm sad
i watch this disney Diva off
and im happier that i was before :)
That musical phrase she does at 6:02-6:06 absolutely kills me every time I watch this video lol I literally cannot handle the Christina accuracy
My dream is to one day be upstaged by Bonnie Milligan like this.
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS
Whoah! Laura's rendition of "Part of Your World" is just as good as Sierra-I would never say better because nobody but Sierra could play Ariel!
I'd love Laura to give it a try.
It's funny because Laura actually auditioned for Ariel.
Right Laura did audition! I met her at a breakfast meet and greet, and she mentioned that at the audition, all the girls had to glide around with Heelies in crop tops😂
this is my comfort video. i've been coming back to it for years
Same.
The fact that i come back to this at least once a month just tells how much I LIVE for this.
Oh my gosh, I've never seen Bonnie Milligan but now I need to look up everything she's ever done. She's amazing!
Can we talk about the part of that world harmony for a sec cos that was beyond gorgeous
Oh my lord, these two. I just can't get over it
Well Bonnie, now you're not only a Tony nominee, but also a FREAKING TONY WINNER BABY!!!
So deserved
"Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?"
"SOMETHING'S FUNNY..."
I died on that part.. Hahaha.. I watched this video for 50 times, quite literally
(PS: Is their pianist the conductor in Broadway's Cinderella?)
The chemistry between these two and their voices together are FANTASTIC!!! SO Funny and So Good!
The way Laura started singing Impossible made my day😂😂😂
if you, like me, remember the whole scene of 'colors of the wind' from pocahontas, you died at "it's a papa bear".
+OurlostIsland i heard "mamma bear" O.o
I heard Papa bear.
Still watching it 9 years later! Iconic truly iconic
"I do like Whitney and Brandy's version..." Slayed me!
Dude.... the guy on piano is having the time of his life and I am living for how he is eating up this experience while playing some top notch notes for these beautiful singers.
I love that I keep coming back and watching this. Its just SO good. My favorite part is 7:12 when Laura gets into "princess mode" and Bonnie mouths 'what the f***' off to the side! HAHAHA!!!!
garrett commenting on this video twice about how much he loves it is the most garrett thing and i'm actually here for it
Imagine having a voice like Bonnie Milligan?! She really knocks it out of the park!
This is probably the BEST thing i've ever seen OMG XD It's hilarious!! and they're really talented too!! I replayed this wayyyy to many times!
8 minutes 37 seconds of perfection x
This is my comfort video and I can’t thank y’all enough for it. I have a chronic illness and my dog is dying and Ive been watching this on repeat because of the serotonin boost it gives me. Legitimately, from the bottom of my heart, thank you 💕
So glad to hear Laura singing Cinderella again
Oh my god this is fantastic. Bonnie is such a kick ass performer!
"because somethings funny" I ACTUALLy DIED

Bonnie’s range is incredible! I’m so glad I stumbled across this video as it introduced me to this amazing singer/performer. She’s super funny and seems like she has a great personality. I hope she gets more leading/main cast roles! Laura is absolutely fantastic as well ☺️

How have I never heard of Bonnie Milligan before? 😍😍😍
Check out Head over Heels OBC recording
Bonnie Milligan; Wow! Totally gave me a new appreciation for 'My Reflection'
Anyone else thinks she'd make a really good Tracy Turnblad from Hairspray?
Yep! Definitely can see it!
I can see her playing Belle in Beauty and the Beast, or any Disney Princess.
@@OzAuthor same. With that voice , create a whole new Princess FOR her
I've watched this like 5 times. Obsessed.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I’m soooo happy Bonnie got her Tony!
A wonderful Disney voice, especially from Bonnie!!
Still one of the best things ever.
Why is Bonnie Milligan so slept on? She's absolutely incredible, and such a joy to watch.
Bonnie is AMAZING! Dude. What an amazing performer, voice and shes got an excellent sense of humor. LOVE!
The thing that gets me wbout this is the people slamming the tables, and how you can hear the silverware clanging. 🤣
bonnie please be in everything ever.
I am a Vocal Performance coach in the Boston area....showing this to all my "Princess students"!!!! Magical!!
Now that's Tony Award Winner Bonnie Milligan :)

My favorite part is Laura singing Colors of the Wind and we see Bonnie trying to upstage her like Aretha did on everyone during Divas Live 99! LOL.
I’ll never get over how beautiful, talented and funny Bonnie and Laura are! This is perfect.
Best video duing quarantine days. Who’s with me?! I’ll never get tired watching this over and over again.
I watch this video at least once a week, it’s my happy place.
Okay but this is also the best audience to have ever existed. I felt that energy and now I wanna go perform somewhere. 😂🤩🙌🏼
Every few months for the past seven years, I come back here to watch this video. It’s genius!
Oh my goodness... This is so hilarious.. I played this over and over again for hours and still laughing... Genius!! Cannot stop laughing at the "Head Voice" part!! LOL
Oh God Bonnie what a voice!
This is singularly one of my favorite videos on youtube. I can't even. All the evens...... can't. No cant's. I love these two women.
SO GOOD~! 5:20 "the grinning bob cat why he grins? "Somethings funneh~" I think I pee'd a lil hahaha.
