- I put as many different portrayals here as I could. If a certain actor doesn't appear here I either couldn't find or didn't have audio/video of them singing the song, or they didn't perform the role until after the video was published.

I love Ruthie's growl and Lea's clarity. They're still my favorite Fantine.
Agree.... I couldn't understand a word Edyta Krzemien was singing
mine too...
At least 4 disney princesses played Fantine then (Jasmine, Mulan, Belle and Pocahontas)
Leslie Elsa!
And Elsa
I was gonna say Elsa.. Making it 5
Ariel too!
@@yippedoodah Totally forgot the little mermaid happened on Broadway.. lol
I absolutely adore Ruthie Henshall's Fantine!
but why is nobody talking about caissie levy as fantine?? she leaves it ALL on the stage, she's so passionate and digs into the character, as well as having an extraordinary voice
i know right?
DUDE. She’s amazing as both Fantine and Elsa
SHES MY FAVE
Ava Pirie she’s my favorite fantine ever!
she is my favorite of all, she is just amazing
Rose Laurens is amazing too! She set Fantine for everyone and she sounded AMAZING as Fantine. Everyone did as well!
Patti LuPone, Ruthie Henshall, Lea Salonga, and Rachelle Ann Go❤💙💚💛💜

Fantastic Rose Laurens...
Imo Ruthie Henshall by far the one who has sung this song the best.
My only beef with this video, and indeed with videos comparing various Fantines, is that there is never audio of Kate Hathaway. I'm curious to know what Anne Hathaway's mother sounded like singing the role.
I know, right? Kate would have been fantastic!
That's literally why I listened to it tbh 😂!!
Everyone basically had to recreate everything Patti Lupone did in the original production. Shows become frozen and everyone following has to follow the character the originator created
Patti created the Fantine we all know. It's very hard to build a character from scratch. Very easy to add your flourishes to something that has already been built for you. Patti deserves credit from all.
Patti Lupone and Ruthie henshell are my favourite Fantine’s because they have amazing singing voices
1. Ruthie Henshall 2. Lea Salonga 3. Rachelle Ann Go 4. Sierra Boggess.
Jessica Keenan Wynn is positively the cutest fantine!
My favourite is Celinde Schoenmaker I was lucky to see her 4 times and she was amazing the first time and simply phenomenal the fourth, SHEER PERFEC TION. I DONT LOOK DOWN ON ANY OF THE OTHERS WHO HAVE PLAYED FANTINE BECAUSE TO BELT OUT THIS LES MIS CLASSIC YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN AWESOME VOICE.
Rose Laurens... wow.
Woah! Paige O' Hara (AKA the original voice of Belle) played Fantine on Broadway?!
I've been looking for audio of "Belle" as FANTINE everywhere!
Fun fact, Jana Werner (german voice of belle) played Fantine in Germany :D
Honestly, kind of perfect.
WHOA. Two Ariels, Cady, Elsa, AND Heather Chandler were all Fantine
And two Elphabas
And a Christine Daaé!
@@kp4692 that was an Ariel lol
and a Miss Honey
and a Jasmine.
caissie Levy’s performance gives me chills each time I watch it
I *love* that "throbbing"quality in Randy Graff's voice. Rachel York is probably my other favorite (I saw her in the role in 1992).
Judy Kuhn: I hear Pocahontas at the end "seemed"!
Rachelle Ann Go is amazing :)
I saw her a eliza in Hamilton
I love Ruthie Henshall.
Still to this day one of my favorite songs! Thank you for this!
Caissie Levy and Rachelle Ann Go are my favesssss
Holy crap, this is amazing!! You have so many recordings!!! Wow! I love all of the foreign languages!
Jan from The Office?? Guess her candle selling didn't work out.
Rachelle Ann Go is amazing and she is definitley one of my favourites! But I absoloutley love Celinde Schoenmaker!!! I feel as though this video didn't represent her very well but she is honestly spectacular!!!
To moi....there is only one Fantine and she is Ruthie Henshall.
Pure raw talent that always leaves you wanting more.
Bravo Madame Ruthie ! ⭐️⭐️👏👏👏🇨🇦
1. LEA SALONGA 2. Randy Graff 3. Rachelle Ann Go 4. Ruthie Henshall
That Korean set! Holy crap! That was beautiful!
My favorites are Kerry, Ruthie, Caissie, Anne, Simone, Sierra, Na-Young-Jean, Rachelle, Rose, Claire, and Yuhko. It’s a lot I know but these women are incredible

Of the all the Fantines listed, I've had the pleasure of seeing Joan Almedilla, Simone, and Charlotte Maltby. All three were breathtaking, but Simone and Charlotte were just so damn heartbreaking.
Do you know were I can find Simone's video?
Rose Laurens (first singer) CRUSHED IT HARD. So much emotion
Debbie Byrne was Fantine in the Complete Symphonic Recording, it's a much better recording of her singing the song than what's here.
This must have been so hard to put together!!! Great job!
Rachelle Ann Go and Celinde Schoenmaker ❤️❤️❤️
Jessica Keenan Wynn was Fantine? Woah! Heather Chandler and Fantine are two very different roles yet she slayed both! Anne Hathaway was my fav tho😍😍😍
Ruthie Henshall is the best, by a long way. She encompasses Fantine's soul and heartbreak, perfectly.
Sierra Boggess was very good, though.
I saw her play Fantine, in the West End and she was fucking amazing.
I saw Rachelle Ann Go twice and she was sooo amazing!!
I love Judy Kuhn, Lea Salonga and Ruthie Henshall!
Alison Blackwell is phenomenal, would love to see her full performance.
they are the best...but Rachelle Ann Go is just amazing the new leading lady of cameron
Lea and Ruthie are the best for me and the new Fantine Rachelle 😁
Ruthie Henshall hands down.
Patti and Sierra are my favorites
And Jessica Keenan Wynn!!! (Who originally played Heather Chandler in Heathers the musical!!)
ruth henshall lea salonga have made the soulful performance, but all of them were awesome.
For my money Lea Salonga is the best one on here because of the sheer emotion she brings to it. She doesn't just sing it she acts it. But i have not been able to find Paige O Hara anywhere except on here and she sounds great too. But the sheer power and precision of Lea Salonga makes her the best for me.
Cho Jungeun is incredible!
So many incredible actresses have played Fantine. Pretty much all of my favourite performers have been there at some point.
I love broadway and I always have, I've always loved this one especially, and *especially* this piece, but it fucking baffles me that anyone at all can listen to these one after the other and then still attempt to claim that Anne didn't do it justice in the movie. She honestly reinvented this piece, this entire character. She finally gave Fantine the actual emotion her character has written. This piece in particular. No one has brought the emotion as well as Anne has. Especially not the anger. Everyone is quick to mention Lea as the best, but she portrays Fantine as this forever hopefuly and bubbly character. Every time I have ever seen her or seen videos of her, she smiles through out this entire piece, and most of the show in general. Also tends to have those few pretty actress tears during this piece. Anne is the first to have finally brought that real rough and raw despair, and finally the anger Fantine allows herself to feel.
Vixey Lazer amen. Amen. Watching this video getting more and more annoyed with everyone’s lack of pain. Fantine is supposed to be *broken* .didn’t get that from anyone apart from Anne Hathaway
She was by far the best from an acting perspective (she's a great singer too), but I think a lot of people didn't like the film arrangement.
I agree but the film media allows this with the camera close up and all. It’s different on stage, live.
HOLY COW.... does anyone have a full clip of Simone's performance?? Those few seconds (13:31) were breathtaking! I had no idea Nina Simone's daughter had performed this role.
I'm trying to find it... She was amazing
1:10 debra bryne is a perfect example that all vibrato is not good vibrato
Joan Almedilla, Lea Salonga, and Jessica Keenan Wynn❤❤❤
Go Rachelle Ann Go!!!
I just cried... that was so funny omg you made my day 😂🙆
Thank you for this
I saw Patrice Tipoki (24:37) live and I teared up because she was so good omg
I saw her live as well and I was withholding tears from falling. so much passion
Caisse Levy and Anne Hathaway
On another note, Patti LuPone got called a clod to her face, if you know what I'm talking about.
my favorites
Ruthie Henshall : 5:28
Lea Salonga : 17:01
Sierra Boggess : 18:39
Anne Hathaway : 19:14
Erika Henningsen : 23:46
Rachelle Ann Go : 25:10
Debra Byrne for me. She acts as well as just sings, great emotion, you feel her frustration
Ruth Hanshell Ann Hathaway Randy Graff Sierra Boggess and Lea Salonga
My absolutely favorite performances on here. My Top 10: These are all Completely Different Interpretations that just vary from one another - Randi Graff, Judy Kuhn, Ruthie Henshall, Nikki Renee Daniels, Anne Hathaway , Cassie Levy, Jessica Bogart, Rachelle Anne Go, Kerri Ellis and Lea Salonga. Special shout-outs: Simone, and Maureen Moore.
Rose Laurens , Patti Lu Pone and Madelena Alberto. Hands down. The thing about these three is- They play fantine HARD SHES HARD bitter, angry, not romantic, thats cosettes role, a Fantine MUST BE HARD MUST BE ANGRY MUST BE BITTER.. These 3 in 30 years are the best.
I'll go for LEA and RACHEL
I’ve listened to Randy on the original cast recording so much she is Fantine to me but I saw it, 3xs on Broadway in the 90s and once in early 2000s that wasn’t my favorite.
Debra Byrne💗💗💗
Easy one - Randy Graff - always will be - her phrasing is unmatched. Listen to Orig Brdwy Recording
Of this bunch, I've seen Betsy Morgan and Caissie Levy live
Trying to find out what soundtrack I used to have by listening to this
I love Claire Moore, Ruthie Henshall, Jayne Paterson, Joana Ampil, Anne Hathaway, Rachel Ann Go, and Lea Salonga as Fantine
Love Celinde Schoenmaker and Jessica Keenan Wynn
Nice one! But you could have added Hiromi Itoh - Japan 1994, Marcia - Japan 2003 and Rumi Iryo - Japan 2003
How I wish to find Simone's version, because she was amazing!
I am very confused as to why there is no one talking about Rachel York, Shes freaking amazing!
I was on vacation in Mexico City in 2003 and I had the great opportunity to enjoy Les MIserables. That night I saw Alejandra Desiderio playing Fantine, she was understudy, my GOd! what a power! what a feeling! what a voice! strong, passionate...one of the best that I ve ever seen in my life.
I know broadway or an official les mis but Susan Boyle gave one of the best renditions
I love Daphne in Rent but just..... no.
If they decided to switch the song around and make it more gritty like the movie (yes I know this was 06) Daphne’s version could have worked
ERIKA HENNINGSEN?? AHHHHH
Ria Jones is the best followed by Ruthie Henshall, both musical theatre legends!!
I just love Jenna Russell's voice. I think their were better Fantine's, but her voice is just so different from everyone else's and I love it.
This is the first ever Les miserables video where not everyone comments about Lea's gracefulness
*looks at thumbnail
Oh cool, Walnut Street Theatre’s on here😊 (from PA)
I love Ruthie's but Lea's singing and acting are undoubtedly phenomenal.
elinore o’connell
Caissie Levy
Aww you left out one of my faves - Maya Hakvoort!
Ruthie Henshall the ultimate for me but to be fair all these women are amazing. x
Ruthie Henshall will always be the GOAT, no one else comes close, even the other greats are not on her level
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT KERRY FREAKING ELLIS !!!!
RUTHIE!!!!
I actually think Anne H captures the hopelessness of Fantine quite well.
My faves are Ruthie Henshall, Laurie Beecham and Lea Salonga. Anne Hathaway also did a great job. Definitely not Melora Hardin.
Lea Salonga is the best. She played Fantine on the West End and on Broadway and not just in the 25th Anniversary Concert.
16:30 Virginia Carmona is amazing!
man i love patti lupone but her fantine grinds my gears from the emotion she doesn't show
favourites are rachel york, ruthie henshall, rachelle ann go, gema castano, rachel beck, alice ripley, gunilla backman, elena roger, alejandra desiderio, betsy morgan, cornelia luna, cho jung-eun and celinde schoenmaker 👌
i always forget patti lupone ws fantine;. When i think of her i always think of sondheim
