- The Muses from Disney’s hit film, Hercules reunited for the first time ever in a hilarious and heartwarming interview that commemorates the film’s 24th anniversary!
Fictional is proud to present, The Gospel Truth: A Digital Reunion with The Muses from Hercules. The conversation includes four of the five original Muses: Lillias White, Vanéese Y. Thomas, Cheryl Freeman, and Roz Ryan.
Hercules, which debuted to international audiences in 1997, featured The Muses, five Black female characters that not only narrated the film but were also the premiere voices in the iconic Hercules soundtrack. Fans will remember notable hits like “The Gospel Truth”, “Zero to Hero”, “A Star is Born”, and “I Won’t Say I’m in Love” which was most recently covered by Ariana Grande during the 2020 Disney Family Singalong. Most significantly The Muses were Disney’s first depiction of Black female characters in a feature-length film, twelve years before Disney’s The Princess & The Frog.
The conversation reveals little-known behind-the-scenes stories, including a tale of international superstar & R&B crooner Luther Vandross crashing a recording session to sing backup vocals in the movie. Most importantly it demonstrates the unique personality of each cast member and the friendship and sisterhood they share among one another.
This is a reunion fit for the Gods, and that's the Gospel truth!

Hiiiiii. I meant to ask you yesterday. How did you find this video?
I looked up the gospel truth on youtube to listen to it, and came across this interview.
They are such a huge part of Hercules, my favorite disney movie. Love their energy and they made some of my favorite disney songs. Absolute legends!
I feel the exact same way! Thank you for watching.
I don’t think they know how ICONIC they are!!! Omg!! The muses is the only reason I love and watch Hercules! I just got done watching it again! I’m also getting the muses tatted on me. That’s how much I love them! Thank you ladies so much! 💛🌞

I was 3 when I saw Hercules and also got the Mcdonalds toys in a happy meal. It was always my fave disney movie growing up and The Muses introduced me to female Soul/R&B/Gospel music and were a stand out to me and Im sure had a profound effect ethnically on me, as a person of colour. God truly shines through their voices. Thank you for this interview.
Awww thank you so much for sharing this background. Thank you for watching!
The muses are my favourite disney characters! These ladies have so much sass and there voices are soo groovy, its hard not to sing along with them😍
Feel free to sing along! Haha. Thank you for watching.
These singers are so amazing - not many songs can bring me to tears but the Muses are so perfect. Thank you for your music and thank you for getting together for this :D

Hercules is my favorite Disney movie & I don't think it would be .. without the magic of the Muses! Thank you all for sharing your gift with us, you all brought so much joy and soul to so many people in the world.
Leaving a legacy that will live on! I'll carry with me til I grow old and grey
Amen to this. They are such a gift to the world. Thank you for joining me in this celebration of The Muses.
This is everything! Why it doesn’t have more views blows me. But wow! Bravo for orchestrating this conversation!
Thank you sooooo much. It really means a lot. If you know anyone who loves The Muses as we do, please feel free to share!
I just re-watched the movie a few days ago and found this video. Such a great reunion panel. Their songs are definitely one of my favorite parts of the movie.
Thank you for checking this out. Glad you enjoyed.
Actually, the reason why I watched HERCULES when I was a child is because I love watching the MUSES sings 😄❤️
Same here! Glad you found this. Thanks for watching.
This was so incredible!! Thank you for creating this moment and for all the black people that contributed to the space! I feel so blessed!! My heart is so full! 💛💛💛 #bringthemusesback

Hercules soundtrack is my favorite Disney soundtrack BECAUSE of the muses. This was beautiful!! These WOMEN ARE AMAZING!! Why haven’t I seen this sooner!!?! 💜
So glad you're with us now. Thank you for watching.
I'm a born 90's Disney fan from Philippines 🇵🇭 I'm glad you Muses are safe and sound during this coronavirus pandemic started last summer of February. Once again, Keep safe always hug's back to you Dear Muses the iconic female dancers in Disney's Hercules (1997) Keep safe. Wear your facemask and maintain distancing.
a film about the muses? Are you kidding me? I’m all in! I’ve always loved the muses! I thought they were interesting goddesses! I want melpomene as The narrator and protagonist of the film! She needs to be the star of the film who carries the story over! Most people think that Calliope should’ve been the protagonist but hear me out Calliope is great! And I think she is a good girl! However, I feel bad for the goddess of tragedy because she never really gets The amount of love and respect she should be getting because she’s a goddess after all! And goddesses need respect and love. I feel like even though she may be the goddess of tragedy and tragedy has a bad reputation, that does not mean that the young girl needs to stay hidden in the underworld forever! It simply means that she needs to come out of the underworld and be vulnerable with us and share her experiences with us! It’s time that she gets to be the star of a Disney film and a Disney princess she can become after going through a long heroes journey. Another thing Disney likes to do is make people cry and this film could be no different because if the goddess of tragedy was actually the protagonist of a film for once I’m sure her story could make people cry! If Disney made it sad enough! And it would turn into a roller coaster of emotions! And I think people would watch this film if they wanna cry that kind of thing it reminds me of something like Bambi or Dumbo or inside out.
Since Disney is good at playing with your emotions, I’m sure this leading lady, could definitely even play with the producers emotions! I mean I think that it would be super emotive, the film, and a lot of unfortunate things would happen to the poor protagonist! But she’d have a happy ending so yeah but the film would be really sad, kind of like the hunchback of Notre Dame. And it probably wouldn’t be as dark as hunchback but it would be pretty sad. That’s what I think would happen! And I believe that, MELPOMENE would have a lot to say! She’d have a lot to say, a lot of songs to sing, and a lot of emotions to be reckoned with, she has a lot of feelings to express, and she ain’t afraid to express her heart and soul, that is, if she comes out of the underworld, she can show her experiences to us. However I feel that whenever she’s upset, her reactions to being upset, are probably going to break someone’s heart! Depending on how severe the reaction is. Just saying. Judging by what Disney does! They could make the poor protagonist as emotive as possible! I’d be both happy and sad for her!
I loved every minute of this! They are ICONS!
I’m so grateful you took the time to watch.
Fantastic interview - the personalities, the stories, and the energy were all sensational.
Thank you Fredia & Fictional team for reuniting these wonderful goddesses, let’s #bringbackthemuses!

Divaaaaaaaa!
Ack!! I ADORE the Muses in this film! I really hope with the live action they get bad ass women to play them, they need to be played by awesome singers.
Thank you for watching! I’d love to see a live action version as well.
Waaaaaa ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for watching !
Charlieeken here :)
Hail New Jerusalem! 😊What a glorious interview🏞️
I absolutely loved the Muses. I'm pagan or at least trying to be and am deeply interested in the Muses as my possible patrons
Best of luck on your spiritual journey. Thank you so much for watching as well.
Hold up one of the muses is missing from this interview
Holy cow you’re right! She goes by the name of, TERPSICHORE! She’s missing from the interview! I noticed! It’s a tragedy she couldn’t make it. I hope she’s doing OK though. And that’s the gospel truth.
Thalia was casted to play zendaya’s grandma in the show kc undercover
This is so good to know! I need to watch this show!
As much as I love this soundtrack, I have to disagree with you on the best soundtrack. This definitely #2, but Tarzan is still #1 for me. I agree with everything else, and it is surely a close call, but Tarzan just slightly wins out
Do they have Instagram IG?
