Danielle Brooks is a once-in-a-lifetime performer. Her stage presence couldn't be stronger if she was 10 feet tall. Her rendition in the movie is gonna be a religious experience.
That is exactly why I’m here watching this video , I just came from the theaters , she was outstanding, she will take your breath away please go see it in the movie theater 🎭 it’s amazing 🤩
No microphones? The acoustics must be awesome, and she has a set of lungs.... She can sing AND act. Awesome in OITNB. PS, you would be a luhya/luo if you were from Kenya
OMG! This is Danielle Brooks! Tasty from OITNW! Just realised it now, way too late...Give this woman at least 3 leading roles in 3 quality movies. She will probably slay the HELL (pun intended) out of all of them. Sister, you rock! Big kiss from a white dutch gay boy from Amsterdam :-) -X-
I've read the book by Alice Walker over 15 times because it's that amazing and moving. Then Whoopie Goldberg's performance in the movie is just ecstatic. I wish my mother and I could have experienced this as well.
I wonder if we’re gonna have a West Side Story situation where two actors playing the same character in two different adaptations both recurve historic Best Supporting Actress Wins.
I wish my sisters and I could see this! My two sisters and I STILL quote parts of the movie when we see each other. And we all read the book in our teens and were so deeply moved. 💜
She betta blow! I love Danielle Brooks! An amazing and talented singer/actress. Love this performance! Always the best one. ❤️👏🏼 May I dare say better than the original?!
I really hate to say this but as much as Hamilton is a good show, and as good as Renee Elise Goldsberry is, Dannielle should have won the Tony cause dang does this woman know how to bring a character to life
While having the same imapctful quality, I love how different her version is from Felicia's. Feliciabwas mostly stoic and straightforward, with a cold deadass face. Danielle is louder, more bombastic, a bit sassier. But the soul for both versions is so inescapable and enjoyable. Perfect!!!
I saw it on Margaret Avery's Instagram, her and Danny Glover went to one of the plays. But I think it was the one where Jennifer Hudson played Shut Avery.
Sofia: You told Harpo to beat me?! Celie: Im sorry. Sofia: I love Harpo. God knows I do. But Ill kill him dead, 'fo I let him or anybody beat me! All my life I had to fight! I had to fight my daddy! I had to fight my brothers, my cousins, my uncles too! But I never, never, never, never, never, never thought I'd have to fight In my own house! I feel sorry for you to tell you the truth. You remind me of my momma! Under yo' husband's thumb, naw You under yo' husband's foot! What he say go! Why you so scared I'll never know. But if a man raise his hand...Hell no! Hell no!! Girl child aint safe in a family of mens! Sick and tired how a woman still live like a slave. Oh, you better learn how to fight back While you still alive! You show them, girl, and beat back that jive! Cause when a man jus dont give a damn...Hell no! Hell no!! Celie: What you gon' do now? Sofia: My sisters comin' to get me. I think I need a vacation on up and away from here. Celie: But Harpo yo' husband. You got to stay wit' him. I know you love 'em Sofia: When that man used to touch me He'd climb on top and start to rock me away Lord knows I still loves him But he tried to make me mind And I just aint that kind, hell no! Celie: Sometimes my husband get on me so hard, he hurt me all over. But he my husband. So I jus' talk to my ol' maker. This life'll soon be over. Heaven last always! Sofia: What you oughta do is bash Mister's head open and thank ol' Heaven later. You cant stay here, girl! Sisters! Sister 1: Hell no! Sister 2: Hell no! Sister 3: Hell no! Sister 4 (spoken): Hell no! Sister 5: Hell no! Sister 6: Hell no! Sister 7: Mmmm, hell no! Sisters (together): Hell no! Lets go! Sister 1: Gonna be yo; rock! Gonna be yo' tree, yeah! Sister 2: Something to hold on to in yo' time of need! Sister 3: Well, you too good for that man! Sisters: Man, that man! (I'm gonna take yo' hand!) Take my hand! Sister, you got to go! Sister 4: Dont be no fool! Dont waste your time! Sister 5: Any man who hurts you aint worth a dime! Sister 7: What he wont know til yo' gone Sisters: Til she gone! (Throw him away!) She be gone! (Sister!) Sister, you got to go! Sofia: Girl, you too good for that man! Let me take you away! (Sister!) Come on, go away! (Sister!) Dont you wanna go away? (Sister!) You gotta, you gotta leave today! (Sister!) Hey! Sisters: Sister, you got to say! Sofia: You got to say, you need to say, you better say, you oughta say! Sisters: Hell! Sofia: Hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell! All: No!! L
Danielle would make a great Wicked Witch of the West 😁👩🏾🎤👩🏾🎤👩🏾🎤🗣👀👀👀👀👀👀👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 she sho nuff has the voice for it!!! What if there was a 2nd Wiz👀👀 I mean.. there is more sequels & ect of the Wizard of Oz sooo why can't we do more😁😉😉🤔🤔🎬📽💽📺 #thewiz #evileen #wickedwitchofthewest
okay, so. LOVE LOVE LOVE cynthia. but it just her delivery on her spoken parts, i just can't get behind it. it's all so dry, dead and monotone. but her singing parts are FILLED with emotion and personality
I see what you mean. I do believe it’s based on how Whoopi Goldberg portrayed Celie in the film. It’s very similar, and monotone as well. Celie didn’t give us much emotion untilshe started gaining self-respect. And even before that all of the emotion she felt was narrated/in her own private thoughts.
she killed this here and KILLED it in the movie.
She definitely did
My fave song out of the movie
she's the same sophia in the color purple" movie?
Danielle Brooks is a once-in-a-lifetime performer. Her stage presence couldn't be stronger if she was 10 feet tall. Her rendition in the movie is gonna be a religious experience.
It truly was ..
@@amiiannyhm the movie was great and she did amazing
💯 💯💯
It was AMAZING in the movie
Can confirm… It was in fact a religious experience
I truly love audience reactions. Especially after she says she'd kill Harpo if he beat her
Theatre Freak Truth! Not only cause she delivered it so Intensely but it's a Mesmerizing Line lol
I just always love Danielle Brooks, she uses her whole body and soul in her performances. Coming here after the movie- she needs to be in more
Congratulations to Danielle! They just announced on ABC that she will be playing Sofia to Fantasia’s Celie in the film adaptation!
That is exactly why I’m here watching this video , I just came from the theaters , she was outstanding, she will take your breath away please go see it in the movie theater 🎭 it’s amazing 🤩
Danielle would make a great Effie White
Danielle is an alto not sure if she would be able to hit the notes 😟
@@andrewavila9594 that's my one concern. The role is pitched higher than she's demonstrated she can sing. Other than that, she's perfect.
Lonell Fletcher Yep ☹️
Umm no
Facts
Academy Award nominee Danielle Brooks! Congratulations! 🥳
Danielle can blow like that??? She kilt that song. I love her voice. thanks for posting these videos.
No microphones? The acoustics must be awesome, and she has a set of lungs....
She can sing AND act. Awesome in OITNB.
PS, you would be a luhya/luo if you were from Kenya
@@sanctusignis9746 they actually do have microphones, its hidden under their wigs/hair
She's Julliard trained!
This woman can SANG
Whew she had my heart the whole movie Oscar please 🙏🏾 ✊🏾💐💜
If this and Hamilton weren’t nominated in the same year she could’ve won her performance and vocals here are amazing!
I saw this musical live at The Armory in Portland. One of the best theater experiences I’ve had.
I also saw it there! Sep. 2018 right? It was the first High School field trip I'd ever been on and it was truly life changing. I cried a lot lol
UGH!!! I wish I could see this live!!! Such an AMAZING musical!!!
Hannah Rose Reviews I saw it live twice. It was amazing both times
I would not be surprised if Danielle happened to get a role playing the Late Gospel Legend Mahalia Jackson she would do the biopic justice !
Terrell Andrews oh my gosh yes
Terrell Andrews
Yes yes yes, and done by HBO
Yesssssssssss
I miss read biopic as biphobic for a second but she is agree! She is awesome.
Please let every director see this post because she is perfect. I can hear her right now singing Elijah rock!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Danielle str8 killed this yes lawd
HELL YES
Heaven and Earth!!!!! No words for the POWER!!!!!
"Hell, no!" Truer words aint never been said, gurl!!
OMG! This is Danielle Brooks! Tasty from OITNW! Just realised it now, way too late...Give this woman at least 3 leading roles in 3 quality movies. She will probably slay the HELL (pun intended) out of all of them. Sister, you rock!
Big kiss from a white dutch gay boy from Amsterdam :-) -X-
this is simply one of the best performances I've ever seen
Now Ik why Ms Danielle got that Tony Nomination sis!
If she doesn't get an Oscar for her performance in the movie, just shut the Oscar's down.
I've read the book by Alice Walker over 15 times because it's that amazing and moving. Then Whoopie Goldberg's performance in the movie is just ecstatic. I wish my mother and I could have experienced this as well.
Brianna Wedow what’s your email ? :)
@@colorpurplelover8571 are you still open to emailing it?
Come back here to watch this after finding out she was nominated for an oscar in a supporting role. Well deserved 🎉
I wonder if we’re gonna have a West Side Story situation where two actors playing the same character in two different adaptations both recurve historic Best Supporting Actress Wins.
I’ve loved Danielle since Orange is the new black and the color purple just made me love her even more so.
GET IN THERE, DANIELLE!!!! SANG!!!!!
Derrick Harley SHE GOT DOWN DEEP!!!
Came here after watching the movie. Danielle brooks is AMAZINGGGGG she can act her ass off and SING
Well she is a Juliard grad
tasty can sing
She sure can !
That was the first thought that came to mind...well first it was "Is that Tasty"?!lol
alex birger Tasty who? All I see is Sofia, Tasty long gone
My favorite part in the movie it was the hand language that took me over HELL noooo
Best award winning movie! Love the color purple
Most didn’t know that this song was in the stage play. I so wish my people did their research.
When I saw this man I am a man and I felt liberated hell NO!!
I wish my sisters and I could see this! My two sisters and I STILL quote parts of the movie when we see each other. And we all read the book in our teens and were so deeply moved. 💜
Yassss girl this how she made me feel playing Sophie in the new color purple movies yes girl ❤
I can’t wait for the movie, when she’s gonna sing this reprising her character as Sofia. 👏🏾👏🏾
She is a force!
Its a shame that I cant see this in a full version!
Im in love. Thank you for posting these!
So good! We just watched her playing Mahalia Jackson and I knew she looked familiar.
She betta blow! I love Danielle Brooks! An amazing and talented singer/actress. Love this performance! Always the best one. ❤️👏🏼 May I dare say better than the original?!
Taystee !!!!!! From Orange is the New Black you killed this song Danielle. Love your voice
I really hate to say this but as much as Hamilton is a good show, and as good as Renee Elise Goldsberry is, Dannielle should have won the Tony cause dang does this woman know how to bring a character to life
YES THIS ALL I WAS WAITING ON!!!
While having the same imapctful quality, I love how different her version is from Felicia's. Feliciabwas mostly stoic and straightforward, with a cold deadass face. Danielle is louder, more bombastic, a bit sassier. But the soul for both versions is so inescapable and enjoyable. Perfect!!!
I'm so proud of Danielle
The wish has finally come true
I love it
So beautiful
It's very beautiful
WHY IS HALF OF THE CAST OFF OF BROADWAY FIRST KIMOKO GLENN NOW DANIELLE
This is the best part of the entire show
I love the Original better. But this cast did amazing things !! I'm extremely proud of them. And DaniB is a POWERHOUSE
Chills love it
I love me some Danielle Brooks aka Tasty from OITNB.
I really identified with her character not being wanted by her mother.
Danielle brings it each time
She's remarkable!!
Wow my favorite actor from Orange is the new black ❤️❤️❤️
I like her to sing hell no on the color purple 3:50 3:50
saw this live in my home city and it was amazing.
I saw it on Margaret Avery's Instagram, her and Danny Glover went to one of the plays. But I think it was the one where Jennifer Hudson played Shut Avery.
This is the version..Jennifer Hudson is shug in this version
Wait a minute...I didn't know Danielle had pipes like that.
Danielle Brook is my girl and I Love My Girl Danielle Brook so much 💜
She better win that award
Danielle would've won a Tony if Hamilton had come out a year later or a year earlier.
She's giving Big Mama Thornton vibes and I'm here for it ✨
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!!!
She gone kill that role of mahalia Jackson
she could've played evillene in the wiz live!!!!!
That's what I'm saying 😲😲👩🏾🎤👀👀👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽

She's A BAD MAMMA JAMMA BOY! Gawt Damn!
