6 yr old Jarrod Spector (5th appearance) singing "Birth to the Blues" vs 9 yr old Countess Vaughn singing "What the world needs now" on Star Search 1988.
@@visaormastercard she can sing( carry a note), she just doesn't have much vocal talent neither does Aretha Franklin especially compared to singers like Mariah, whitney and Minnie Riperton
@@visaormastercard Maybe you don't read and comprehend well. I NEVER gave props to Mary. I simply stated an objective fact. Mary and Aretha (at the very minimum) both have the to sing( carry a note) but neither one of them have much vocal talent beyond that. When did I give Mary " props"? Learn to read and comprehend.
Both were talented children. While Countess did sing him down, I'm not surprised to learn Jarrod went on to do well on Broadway as he had a lot of stage presence here, and was quite the little performer. Countess, Countess, Countess...she was truly incredible for her age. So poised and seasoned for a kid! I hate that the industry never knew what they had in her as an actress or singer. Give her her flowers!
Brandy and Monica are into sacrifices AND kissing butt of the elite to stay relevant..(evil witches like Rihanna and Bey)!!!. Countess has progressive health concerns( thyroids i think)....
Because we wanted her to become the star she was born to be and still performing today and now that we know how the world and the industry works we know she probably didn’t get as far as Whitney and Brandy because of lack of promotions and her chubbiest lil self or some other unfair bull crap!
Believe it or not, he actually has a damn good voice now and is on Broadway. Look up “Jersey Boys,” he does an excellent Frankie Valli. These comments are so negative. He’s six here people, bring it ALL the way down!
Jarrod Spector was a cute singer, but not a very good singer. He probably would have been better if he trained his voice. I'd have given him a 3 to be generous, but he deserved a 2. Countess Vaughn did great and sang with passion. 4 from me. For 9 years old, she did wonderful.
I remember where I was when this episode actually aired. Her voice is so beautiful, all I could do is cry! When she won, I screamed so loud, I woke the whole house! Lol
I used to couldn't wait until star search came on back in the DAYS. I remember watching this episode of her also I remember she was playing on 227 back in the DAYS.
😍😍😍😍😍 Countess was born with a Gift she can sing so soulful she can sing but she SANG she hitting those notes Makes it so emotional and she was soo Cute as a 9 year old
Red Roses because americans are so superficial when it comes to looks...especially during the time she would have been her most successful singing (16-25)...she had to resort to some bullshit tv sitcoms because she was 'too fat of a female' to look good in music videos.
Oh please. He never shone. Speak about the real, talented, and clear winner here. I wonder why you chose to speak about the little boy who was just hollering. We all know.
Little white boy made it all the way to Star Search because "aw, he's adorable and cute when he TRIES to sing" ...a.k.a. white boy privilege (ya'll know I'm right - this has been going on for centuries) - It was his FIFTH APPEARANCE??? WOW! Countess came on and blew...him...away!!!! And then the little talent-less white boy who got this far just by being "cute" never stood a chance! LOL! Gotta give him credit that he held it together when he lost, because you KNOW he didn't see that one coming, having won everything up to that point just by getting by on his cuteness...and by being white.
Since my little girls are in love with Moshea show 2020. I wanted them to see Kim as a little girl. The good old days watching Star Search in the late 80s
DatGidiGirl S she suffer from thyroiditis so her voice suffers from that. the doctor told her on the show, she'll never be able to sing like she used to
Jarrod and Countess both achieved success. You can see on his face that he was about to cry. She was so excited to win. Love these throwback videos. You win some, you lose some. That’s entertainment. Gotta develop a thick skin early on so you can handle grown ups looking crazy as hell making fun of you losing.
"MS. Queen Countess At "9" Own THAT STAGE Sung Her Heart Out🎤🎼💟🎤🎼💟🎤Such STAR Power AND PERFECTION🎇🎇🎇🎇 AND SO Overly CUTE AND WeLL Mannered... Star Search 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Memories AND Love This PEACE 🎇💟🎤🎼😁😌🌟🎬😇💟🎼🎤🌟😌🎇....
LOL The little boy was cute, but Countess took you to church baby! When you go to church at that age..its just phenomenal....! I remember watching this when I was little. Kids we were so much more talented in the 80's as kids than now.
that little boy wasn't even singing, he was yelling... i heard ABSOLUTELY NOT *ONE* vocal ... how tf did he make it to semi-finals... i already know the answer
Countess was singing better than a lot of these girls today at age 9!
She sounds better than a lot of legends as well. Aretha Franklin could never sing this well and nor could Mary J Blige
@@jakemiles1427 Mary J can't sing.

WHY DID SHE NOT GET AS FAMOUS AS BRANDY, SHE KILLED IT
Brandy and Monica are into sacrifices AND kissing butt of the elite to stay relevant..(evil witches like Rihanna and Bey)!!!. Countess has progressive health concerns( thyroids i think)....
Thing is she can sing better than Brandy but it's all about looks and who the best sell outs in Hollywood not about real talent.
two words: shorter, chubbier. #hollywood
@@queenateeba4803 , i strongly disagree.
Cuz she not skinny .. Unfortunately its about looks and also promotion plays apart to .. Brandy had great ppl around her countess didnt
Why am I obsessed with these old Countess Vaughn star search videos 🤣
Maine Attraction me too at the moment
Cynthia Kila’ same
🤣🤣✌ me too
Me three omg I love these wish I was born back then😭
Because we wanted her to become the star she was born to be and still performing today and now that we know how the world and the industry works we know she probably didn’t get as far as Whitney and Brandy because of lack of promotions and her chubbiest lil self or some other unfair bull crap!
Man she could SANG! She blew him away! I'm sorry, but just tellin' the truth!
Lmao Countess was like, "You think you the shit, well I'm the big shit."
im cdfu
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
And is less time!
THIS BLEW MEEE
Countess sounding like a little Shirley Murdock back in the day! Lol
AJ Juicy Swear she does!!!!!
I was just about to say it
plot twist: That's Shirley's love child.
I thought she was more like a young Shirley Caesar.
I knew I caught those Shirley Murdock vibez! Get out!
yass Kim Parker you better sanggg boo! lol Countess was just destined to be a star!! That voice was golden at a young age!
*****
lol Hello! Yes that would be me! lol
I hope folks will never forget that Countess Vaughan is an exceptional veteran in the business and her talents are endless.
Her confidence and voice was wonderful! Plus she was so cute!
Ang Jo WAS!!!! U said it.
Countness is adorable!!! Her reaction when she won was priceless!!!
DANG MAMMA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Countess got pipes, very very good at 9 years old.
aww she sang her little heart out
Believe it or not, he actually has a damn good voice now and is on Broadway. Look up “Jersey Boys,” he does an excellent Frankie Valli. These comments are so negative. He’s six here people, bring it ALL the way down!
Wow....she just took that kid to school....
She reminds me of the sister on the five heartbeats
Right
It’s crazy because they went against each other too
They both competed with each other
Her performance almost made me cry 😭
She been having vocals🔥💯
Countess was a singing girl. Beautiful voice. It's sad that she suffers from thyroids disease and it robbed her of her voice.
Jarrod Spector was a cute singer, but not a very good singer. He probably would have been better if he trained his voice. I'd have given him a 3 to be generous, but he deserved a 2.
Countess Vaughn did great and sang with passion. 4 from me. For 9 years old, she did wonderful.
Jarrod sounds like any kid at any time.
😂😂😂😂😅😭😭😭😭
He won five, FIVE times! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
😂😂😂😂
Lol
she was beasting them vocals out as a youngin!!
What the hell was Jarrod doing 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Resha Wells Jarrod got robbed.
Girl he was being cute thinking that was gon make him win
Jarrod had zero chance of winning
I can't understand wdf he saying
😂😂😂😂😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
I remember where I was when this episode actually aired. Her voice is so beautiful, all I could do is cry! When she won, I screamed so loud, I woke the whole house! Lol
Countess's voice at this age reminds me of Shirley Murdock.
I used to couldn't wait until star search came on back in the DAYS. I remember watching this episode of her also I remember she was playing on 227 back in the DAYS.
You can see and hear it she is full of LOVE. She is singing what's truly in her heart. I got goose bumps just listening to her. WOW
😍😍😍😍😍 Countess was born with a Gift she can sing so soulful she can sing but she SANG she hitting those notes Makes it so emotional and she was soo Cute as a 9 year old
countess vaughn shoulda went pro she has an amazing voice
SHE JUST TOOK US TO CHURCH YA"LL
Awww......so beautiful. Made me cry. love you Countess
Why didn't we meet her parents?
brattiness22 That's the same thing I said!!
Right smh
Right
Same thing I said guess because the boy him and his parents was already rich. Her and her parents weren't rich they was rich in love not money.
u know white people think black families are a myth. that we hatch from eggs in a cabbage patch.
she has so much talent she should have been another Whitney Houston in Hollywood
Red Roses because americans are so superficial when it comes to looks...especially during the time she would have been her most successful singing (16-25)...she had to resort to some bullshit tv sitcoms because she was 'too fat of a female' to look good in music videos.
It's so lovely to see that Countess' mother dressed her as the beautiful 9 year old she it. today young mother's need to take note.
Lord have mercy that voice
You girls are so beautiful and your dance moves are🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
This kid turned out to be a 2014 Tony Nominee. He’s also starred in Les Miserable and Jersey Boys on a broadway as well .
I'm sure.
@@KingofgraceSARA 😳😂😂😂
Oh please. He never shone. Speak about the real, talented, and clear winner here. I wonder why you chose to speak about the little boy who was just hollering. We all know.
i remeber when i actually wanted one of those dresses! I miss the 80's and childhood!
The sigh she let out when he asked her if Her name was her name or a title. 🤣🤣🤣
Lol, it really is a title though. She didn't know.
I remember watching this as a kid. To see her go on to 227 was beautiful.
Who the hell told Jarrod Spector to get on that stage 😭 especially with Countess Vaughn. Whew Chile 👀☕️
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!!!! Right😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!!!!
i think she killed this song...she sang it better than dionne
Baby girl has so much soul! Yes!

90OZHOTTIE X me too
90OZHOTTIE X lol
90OZHOTTIE X we won’t speak of that thing
Sis went from singing like this! To do you love him😂😭..but she did good❤️
She has an autoimmune disorder. Took her voice.
She kicked his butt
I woulda been mad if I met her in the semi finals to compete again.
I remember watching this. I couldn't believe Countess' voice. ❤️
Countess Killed IT!!
Countess was so cute!! He voice was amazing, it’s a shame what the thyroids did to her voice, just isn’t the same
I’m glad I was able to experience this in real time as it aired in the 80’s! Great Tv! Great Talent
That little boy at the beginning....sing queen!
Wasn't he giving the dramatics and stage presence?
Call me blind---i dont see any competition here
Me either!
i wanted to see countess parents. wow this is cool
"WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW IS LOVE SWEET LOVE"💞
Hollywood Divas brought me here
Really Jerrod??????? Really?

I saw him the other month as the lead of jersey boys he did so good!
The vibe when you have quite literally been #thatgirl ! Astounding and anointed
The way she sings world is soooo cute bless her. And black mamas know how to dress their kids to the 9s!
countess is a really good
She was sooooo cute 🥺😍

I can't even argue with you there, but if I say it I am racist 🤷🏽♀️
😂😂 He shoulda saw it coming.
I think his singing was very good especially for a 6 year old. Vocal control was on point.
both of them did a great job
@@cherokeestewarthart9611 but it’s a singing competition there has to be a winner
I remember watching all of her competitions on Star Search. She went on to be on 227
Since my little girls are in love with Moshea show 2020. I wanted them to see Kim as a little girl. The good old days watching Star Search in the late 80s
I so remember the night my family and I watched this & was blown away!!! I was 12
a star was born priceless and priceless
My goodness that voice ❤️
I remember sitting in front of my grandmother's television for this episode.
she sounds off key in her new song but she was a great singer at 9
ikr
Who ever produced that needs to get fucking fired
DatGidiGirl S she suffer from thyroiditis so her voice suffers from that. the doctor told her on the show, she'll never be able to sing like she used to
She still could sing but she got sick.
OMG, I remember this little guy. Star Search was my favorite show back then. I never missed it!
Lol once that lil boy heard the first couple of notes fly out her mouth he knew right then.... HE FUCKED UP LMAOOOOO
This is before 227 ...🤗go girl!!
Black people are the best singers on the planet, hands down.. this shows is a perfect example of how you are going to get two prodigies in one show.
I love this.. Go young Countess☺️
I just got chills 😲
she had a cd in 1992
I lived in the same apartment complex as Countess Vaughn and Tatiana Ali in Burbank at one point.
These are nostalgic times I wasn't born then but I believe it to be more peaceful than now
Didn’t need the lil marshmallow in the beginning skipped his whole performance to get to her😂❤❤
Omg she is so amazing 🔥❤️

Watching this countess makes me want to watch the Parker's.
Portia Ferguson or Moesha
Or 227
I just did lol
They are so cute!😁😁😁
lil boy couldn't even speak well...
He's a little boy on television, cut him some slack.
But he now has a very relevant career... Come harder
Bernard Harrington what does he do?
JO MEAUX He’s on Broadway.
Afanlynness come on. Give him a little break. I think he is like 6 years old.
LOL The little boy was cute, but Countess took you to church baby! When you go to church at that age..its just phenomenal....! I remember watching this when I was little. Kids we were so much more talented in the 80's as kids than now.
I love this it's beautiful.
Almost every child on Star Child became famous. Too bad we don't hear much about those two today and ive always thought countess had lots of potential
Countess throwing her fists in the air, blowing off her component...😂
AMAZING COUNTESS VAUGHN!
2020 binge watching cause I miss the good ole days
Love this video; so good to see these again! FIVE Stars!
that little boy wasn't even singing, he was yelling... i heard ABSOLUTELY NOT *ONE* vocal ... how tf did he make it to semi-finals... i already know the answer
that boy is just wailing... no offence :P Countess was legit!!
lol, ive seen this video 100 times... big cousin definantly killed it.
She was so adorable.
