And this is why they need to pay Taraji what she’s due cause she completely captivates you. My mouth was wide open during this scene cause I was so shocked by all the talent this woman holds within herself. I love Taraji ❤❤❤
She's done .This is a Warner Bros film..box office is declining and she gave the film bad press plus she's looking old and tired. She's done in Hollywood
@@krimsonedit3272You and you opinion are the only thing that’s old and tired. Taraji is a queen on screen and absolutely deserves her dues. You saying that is completely random and wild. She’ll always be great, but maybe the reason you can’t see that is you have no taste.
@@SalemGurl8701they’re not talking about the singing, they’re talking about how Taraji actually done this scene in a real swamp on a boat and not on cgi, considering how many movies nowadays would use cgi to film the scenes to avoid any accidents to happen during filming.
I have never saw her do a bad job in any movie. Benjamin Button she was amazing, and that TV show. I thought managers were responsible for negotiating their contract.
I feel like it should be noted… She can sing, but even she acknowledged the work and support she had to prepare herself for this type of Clare and professional style of singing!
I remember watching the 1985 Shug Avery and being taken in by her beauty and attitude. Then I saw this, and I swear I was speechless. She brought a whole new light on Shug Avery, and OMG that entrance is the best!!! They stuck pretty close to Shugs original dress, but this took it a step further and... wow. I caught myself singing this all day today. Red is a color that commands respect and attention here. OH and to see her walk right past Mister and go right up to Celie was the best end to this scene!!!
That’s me on the 🎷! It was a blast being a part of this film! FYI, it was first shot in the woods of Covington, GA then later inside a studio in Atl. Dope how they put it all together!
The whole jazz band killed it; sounded stanky and looked gritty in all the right places; the passion showed through in every one of the musicians movements, facial expressions; you all ere the epitome of the way it ~feels~ to play a gritty blues/jazz chart; us midwest classical kids with no swagger are taking notes of THIS video of how it feels to be in the pocket but ALSO to LOOK like the coolest jazz musicians ever ~bravo to you all in the back! We band nerds see you all lookin fine and cool and perfectly jazz I’ll sexy~ Thank you to all artists involved!! Super inspiring to see artists of different specialities work so damn well together.
One of those rare instances where a story is consistently done justice. The Color Purple is an amazing book, an amazing film, and an amazing musical both on-stage and on-screen. Now all they need to do is make it a tv show 😜.
Just saw the movie...this was excellent! Yes, Taraji gave a great performance and her singing was on point on “Push Da Button”🎶🎤🎵💃🏼. I can’t wait to purchase the soundtrack and DVD. Shug Avery showed out in this wonderful reimagined Color Purple Musical!!!! Thank you to the entire cast👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Fantasia par excellence made me cry a few times during her performances, Danielle, such a beautiful voice...ladies and gentlemen hats 🎩 off and a standing ovation!
Yall, give Taraji her flowers... Today!! She deserves all of them, I promise. She's been a beast since Baby Boy! Glad we're finally getting to hear her voice! She should have been using her actual vocals in all the prior work! What an incredible performance. Great job Taraji. I for one am excited for all your future successes, just as I was for all your previous successes. So proud of this woman. And even better, she's beautiful inside and out.
IMO Taraji was the STAR of this film. Danielle is getting all the buzz because of Broadway but Shug has A LOT of juicy screen time and lots of songs. And Taraji DELIVERS. Blew me away… missed her when she wasn’t on screen. She should be in the Oscar conversation for sure.
Absolutely loved everything about this scene of this movie!!!! The dancers took me there and Ms. Taraji P. Henson . . . . whooooooooooh baby yes ma'am!!!!!
@@ritagreenleaf3669 my partner and I saw it a few hours ago. He hates musicals , and falls asleep on most of the movies we go see lol , he actually loved the music and the film .
YESSSSS 🙌🏾 MA'AM MS.TARAJI 💪🏾 YOU DID YOUR THING AND SOOOO MUCH MORE!!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 YOU DEFINITELY DESERVE YOUR PAY FOR EVERYTHING YOU PUT YOUR ESSENCE INTO!!!!!🏆 DEFINITELY THE REAL MVP!!!!!💥 MAY GOD CONTINUE TO POUR HIS BLESSINGS UPON YOU!!!! I LOVE ❤️💞💖❣️ YOU PERIODT!!!!👑🥰🌹🙏🏾🖤😽
This woman is AMAZING! Yes! She needs to be PAYED ABUNDANTLY!!! I hope that Industry starts to GET IT RIGHT! That was such a wonderful performance! Taraji, you ROCK!
I keep hearing, "nominated for best supporting actress in The Color Purple, TARAJI P. HENSON!!!" whenever I see her in this movie! This scene was such an immaculate introduction to her as Shug Avery!
Whatever on earth Taraji is asking these producers for isn't nearly enough, I know they barely pay her what she's asking anyway but frankly she deserves so much more because GOD DAMN!
Stop it! Now here you go cranking up more mess. Just stop it! First of all, if it wasn't for Oprah, we would not be witnessing Taraji showcasing more gifts as she is now. It's because of Oprah that Taraji got more pay when Taraji wanted her to ask the studio executives for more pay and its because of Oprah that this entire production was brought to life and so many black people were employed to be part of such a great production. So, just stop kicking up mess!
Taraji has an amazing voice like WOW she was an amazing part of this film it just makes me wonder why did she not sing in empire an amazing voice deserves to be heard
That dance breakdown scene was EVERYTHING! Gave me Goosebumps, reminded me of 90s MJ. SHOUTOUT to Fatima and all the dancers - they were dancing for blood!
When I first saw this (on the way to Florida on the plane), I was completely stunned😍😍not being funny but I would have killed to be next to Taraji P Henson she is so beautiful and talented. Charming and capturing her audience 😍
Taraji P. Henson you are a "Beast" as actress and a singer! Pay Taraji what she's worth...this SisStar is tested but ain't to be messed with Hollywood💕👏🏾🙏🏾💯
The fact that this is ACTUALLY her voice too and the director said she did it one take. She deserves whatever she asked for and SOME!!!!! Its takes SHEER TALENT to be able to do something in ONE TAKE!!!!! And the lights being off was a after thought. When they were doing a rehearsal the lights were off and i believe the backstage likes wwre peeking through, he said he had a cartoon lightbulb moment and said "LETS KEEP THE LIGHTS OFF DURING THAT DANCE PART." (Im just paraphrasing his words. This isnt what he actually said.)
And this is why they need to pay Taraji what she’s due cause she completely captivates you. My mouth was wide open during this scene cause I was so shocked by all the talent this woman holds within herself. I love Taraji ❤❤❤
She's done .This is a Warner Bros film..box office is declining and she gave the film bad press plus she's looking old and tired. She's done in Hollywood
@@krimsonedit3272the ageism and misogyny of it all
@@krimsonedit3272if that’s true I hope she goes out swinging. Bring down Oprah on her way out.
@@krimsonedit3272 Oh no baby! It's not over till GOD says it's over!
@@krimsonedit3272You and you opinion are the only thing that’s old and tired. Taraji is a queen on screen and absolutely deserves her dues. You saying that is completely random and wild. She’ll always be great, but maybe the reason you can’t see that is you have no taste.
🤩 The fact that Taraji was actually floating through a real drained swamp and not cgi is just 👌🏽
And using her own vocals
It’s not a drained swamp it was real swamp in Savannah ga. Between Savannah & Brunswick
The director said they drained what was there before and refilled it everyday or so it looked even in every scene. @Suavay5
Any singer can singer can sing on a boat… let’s not go overboard😂😂😂
@@SalemGurl8701they’re not talking about the singing, they’re talking about how Taraji actually done this scene in a real swamp on a boat and not on cgi, considering how many movies nowadays would use cgi to film the scenes to avoid any accidents to happen during filming.
Taraji was at her ABSOLUTE BEST in this movie. She gave everything and more! She deserves the compensation she is requesting.
This woman deserves her flowers 🌹🌼 while she's still here on 🌍
She been deserved her flowers and her dues since Hidden Figures honestly.
I have never saw her do a bad job in any movie. Benjamin Button she was amazing, and that TV show. I thought managers were responsible for negotiating their contract.
I agree shes amazing love it😊
@@kameshiaglover8654doing what she does best
the choreography was sooo good especially when the lights were off 😍
Best part.
The legendary Fatima Robinson did the choreography
That's what I was just talkin 2 someone, the cinematography was gorgeously shot, the lights and shadows? Just yes!
Nasty. Way too suggestive
I went to watch this with my mom 😂
No one can bring life to a character more than Taraji b henson 🔥🔥🔥
P Henson
Who that is?
The p is upside down❤
@@lizlisses😂
I feel like it should be noted… She can sing, but even she acknowledged the work and support she had to prepare herself for this type of Clare and professional style of singing!
Yup ! She could always hold a note , I love that she trained because she wanted to do Shug justice ❤️
This entrance was everything!!!!
Ciara is another beautiful brown girl treated like sh8t in this industry.
Everythaang lol
I knew Taraji could sing. Didn’t know she could SANG! Wow!
Of course since hustle and flow💯
I remember watching the 1985 Shug Avery and being taken in by her beauty and attitude. Then I saw this, and I swear I was speechless.

You were just about as hot as Taraji, #iamfrankhouston 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷#PushtheButton!🎵🎵
Wow! Amazing, you did well!
THAT'S SOOO COOL!!
One word amazing and that's not good enough ❤😊🎉💃💃💃
The whole jazz band killed it; sounded stanky and looked gritty in all the right places; the passion showed through in every one of the musicians movements, facial expressions; you all ere the epitome of the way it ~feels~ to play a gritty blues/jazz chart; us midwest classical kids with no swagger are taking notes of THIS video of how it feels to be in the pocket but ALSO to LOOK like the coolest jazz musicians ever ~bravo to you all in the back!

Thank you to all artists involved!! Super inspiring to see artists of different specialities work so damn well together.
Taraji will never fail to devour a character and portray them perfectly.
The last line before this scene:
"Shug wants to make an entrance"
GUUUURRRRLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!
Oh, she definitely pulled that off, and THEN SOME!
Nobody could have played this part better than Taraji!
I would have loved Janelle Monae, but no Taraji fits it better
The sequence where the lights went out reminded me of Smooth Criminal and I LOVE IT❤
I was thinking the same ❤
😂💯🍯🙋🏽♀️
I loved that nod to Michael
It was definitely giving that
One of those rare instances where a story is consistently done justice. The Color Purple is an amazing book, an amazing film, and an amazing musical both on-stage and on-screen. Now all they need to do is make it a tv show 😜.
Cause Alice and Rebecca Walker are right there exec producing making sure the vision is true!
This film version was not that great
😂
I had never heard her sing and she blows the roof off with this song!!!
You never seen hustle and flow?
Taraji saiddd the days of sleeping on her are ova. Sang Sis 🔥🔥🔥
The way Miss Celie is so happy and dare I say turned on by being chosen at the end! Oh my god!!!
Taraji deserve absolutly to win an Oscar 😍 wonderful!
This is why she’s one of my favs. Never gives anything but her best in all of her performances.
Believe it or not it's my first time hearing Taraji P Henson sing and she's good her vocal cords are good
Same here! The song was so good I bought it on iTunes a few days ago!
Check her out in Hustle and Flow
@@Lou8430 They mean where she's really show casing her vocals
Fef@@brettkimura
Watch I can do bad by myself,the movie she sings at the end
The Color Purple soundtrack is absolutely amazing. God, I loved this movie, both the original and the remake.
The Remake is way more better.
"She Can Catch A Fish Without A Hook!!!". This Film Musical Is Just Extraordinary!!! Taraji Is Stunning!!!
The fact that Taraji can’t even take some time off for work is ridiculous
Hollywood needs to pay her for the perfection she delivers
Most folks can’t take days off from work.
@@justthej ok, and your point is????
THIS MOVIE WAS SOOOOO GOOD
I really wanna see it!
@@brettkimurait’s wonderful!!!
One of the best musical numbers in the last decade
It's my first time hearing Taraji sing and all I can say is that Taraji is Thee Name 💜💜
She sung in hustle in flow she sung the hook to it's hard out here for a pimp.
she wasn't SANGin in that movie though, she admits herself (lol)@@kameshiaglover8654

Funny how Shug ran right over to Celie at the end, all hugged up with her instead of Mister 😂
I come back here faithfully to watch this! I hate that folks didn’t support this film cause it was really good!!
They thought it was a remake of the original movie but that's just not the case!! It was based off of the broadway musical!!
I aspire to have Shug Avery's natural confidence! ❤
Yall, give Taraji her flowers... Today!! She deserves all of them, I promise. She's been a beast since Baby Boy! Glad we're finally getting to hear her voice!

Taraji definitely bodied this!! THIS is why she needs to be paid her worth!!

Finally!!! I was waiting on this. One of my favorite part in the movie. You better show them how its done Taraji!!!!
Whoever wrote this song is telling the truth and it had me blushing 😮screaming and shouting at the same time. Preach that!!! Tell it!!
Wow! I saw the show on Broadway years ago when it first came out. Taraji did a wonderful job. I didn't know she could sing!
Saw it twice in 1 week. Great holiday treat for sure! 💜👑
Albert was officially jealous of Ceily after this 🤣 that's right!!
Shug ran straight into Celie’s arms, Albert was pissed.
Same❤
Gross.
@@mytv89626what about any of this is gross?
WOW! She can truly sing
Listen, Mister's reaction at the end was perfect! 😂😂 and that is largely owed to the (comic) timing, please. ❤
Taraji’s voice was amazing.
Mr’s face at the end.Coleman Domingo is just soooo special.
NOTHING was more special than the relationship of c&s🙌🏿 and this movie didn't do that justice at all
I love Fantasia’s expressions in the clip!!!
Best choreo in the movie!! She killed this
Taraji deserves an Oscar 🔥
Wow! Excellent. Taraji ate it up!
Absolutely loved everything about this scene of this movie!!!! The dancers took me there and Ms. Taraji P. Henson . . . . whooooooooooh baby yes ma'am!!!!!
Taraji is a phenomenal actress! She is an amazing singer! She is truly a BEAST! Congratulations…I wish you the best!❤
One of my favourite songs from this movie!!!!!
Please dont say it was a musical😢
@@ritagreenleaf3669where you been at ? lol
@@Kenny-bu4uv I wanted to go and my friend told me i would not like it....too much damn singing
@@ritagreenleaf3669 my partner and I saw it a few hours ago. He hates musicals , and falls asleep on most of the movies we go see lol , he actually loved the music and the film .
I really hate that Taraji isn't getting her props for her stellar performance!
Taraji’s Voice is pressure 🔥
Taraji, P Henson did that🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Love the movie 🥰🥰🥰🥰♍️

So multi-talented. She never fails to amaze!
Taraji doing the damn thing!!!
This woman is AMAZING! Yes! She needs to be PAYED ABUNDANTLY!!! I hope that Industry starts to GET IT RIGHT! That was such a wonderful performance! Taraji, you ROCK!
This is my favorite song from the movie. It's so catchy and the chorography is 🔥🔥🔥
Taraji sang her face off 🙌🏽
Out of Jennifer, heather, and Michelle, I feel Taraji nailed it best
heather >>>>>>
You must be high
Best acting Taraji has ever done
Finally!!! I loved every performance in this movie
Outstanding performance!!
Taraji is something serious. She can act anything in front! Pay her worth! Name one bad Taraji movie!
This one of my favorite part of the movie.. entrance through the swamp.. gurlll! I pushed the button.
Girl has a beautiful voice. I love Taraji. Baby is fire.
I love Taraji P. Henson
The way taraji goes up to celie is too Cute 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🤌🤌😘😘😘
Love that
Ikr!!!!!💜
so cute i agree
Mister looks just like "whaaaa?"
Beautiful performance, from the queen herself!❤
amazing movie💜
I watched it twice
I can’t wait when it comes online
I keep hearing, "nominated for best supporting actress in The Color Purple, TARAJI P. HENSON!!!" whenever I see her in this movie! This scene was such an immaculate introduction to her as Shug Avery!
Nope. She shot herself in the foot with all of her complaining right before awards season. Not smart.
That part when the lights cut out and the horns hit!!! My soul got snatch!!!!!!!
Whatever on earth Taraji is asking these producers for isn't nearly enough, I know they barely pay her what she's asking anyway but frankly she deserves so much more because GOD DAMN!
Wow! Send her to Broadway! Get her a tour! Get her in the studio!
Oprah 😢is jealous of Taraji😅
Stop it! Now here you go cranking up more mess. Just stop it! First of all, if it wasn't for Oprah, we would not be witnessing Taraji showcasing more gifts as she is now.

She always give it her all ,very talented and beautiful 😍!
I love how much this sequence takes inspiration from Smooth Criminal whilst being very much it's own thing.
Taraji Fantasia Ciara Danielle Brooks Nailed this Color Purple (2023
She is right up there with j hud, jennifer holiday and heather headley! All were amazing! ❤❤❤

Taraji killed this song.
Taraji can sang!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is the best performance in the movie! Tph ate!
Wow!! Taraji is so talented!! She deserves to be payed more.

I like this color purple push the button by taraji p henson thank you for playing big fan❤
And she is ACTUALLY singing! 😭🔥🔥
Yes cause the original Shug sang to Tera’s voice
Taraji is amazing. Had no idea she can sing and dance 😍😍
The fact that this is ACTUALLY her voice too and the director said she did it one take. She deserves whatever she asked for and SOME!!!!! Its takes SHEER TALENT to be able to do something in ONE TAKE!!!!!
