Seriously! I think Rosario’s voice was the best for the role - it has that sort of raspy rock sound - but Renee’s voice is arguably the most powerful and well-trained.
People who are hating don't realize how hard it is to jump, act, sing, dancing, twerk and be all round sexy while STILL looking fit as holy hell. Muggles.
I know this is old but I 100% agree; so many different skills going on here. Not to mention how dangerous a lot of the things she is doing physically is whilst still singing and acting at the same time
this performance is actually insane. this a true example of a triple threat. comparing renee's mimi out tonight performance to vanessa's makes you realize how freaking talented renee is.
I agree, but you do also have to remember that this was filmed in multiple parts. Some of it was the closeups and some of it was the live performance in front of the crowd. She is my favorite Mimi as well, but keep that in mind. They made sure it was perfect.
HOW DOES SHE SING WHILE FLYING AROUND LIKE THAT HOW DOES SHE NOT FALL OFF??? HOW DOES SHE CATCH HER BREATH??? HOW DOES SHE NOT GET DIZZY????? AND SHES UPSIDE DOWN?????? AND SHE SOUNDS PERFECT AND LOOKS INCREDIBLE AND ITS LIKE NOT AWKWARD AT ALL LIKE SHES SLAYING k can I just be renee
90% of these comments: Something that involves Hamilton 9%: Actually appreciating Renee's performance 0.996%: Other various comments 0.004%: This comment explaining percentages of different types of comments.
People need to realize you can't compare Rosario to Renee or any other Mimi on Broadway because live theatre and film are completely different formats. Of course this performance is going to be way different than the movie. No joke. You can't compare them unless you've seen them both in similar formats.
😂😂😂 who the heck compares threatre to film. With film you can do retakes. With threatre you can't and also in the film they are lip syncing and aren't really singing like in live threatre
Grofflin She's ripped holy fuck. She is life goals in human form, perfect body, perfect voice. I'm pretty sure she's an angel disguised as a stage actress.
Two things. 1. Of course, her little stint upside down is awesome. But I’m more impressed at her core strength staying upright and balanced when she’s standing on the high railings. And looks totally fearless doing it. 2. Her little run on ‘chrome’ still gives me life 10 years later. 😍
I don't get why people are comparing Renee with Rosario 😐 I think both are great! Renee is definitely more animated and energetic, and while some may say it's overkill, we need to remember that this is a LIVE MUSICAL, meaning no fancy effects - she has to make up for that somehow
Just saw Renee in Hamilton and got to meet her at the stage door after the show. I'm such a huge fan and have been ever since seeing her in this so many years ago. Gotta love her!
I love how she gestures towards her "scars"...so soulful, so powerful. And how she rocks each note while maintaining her balance on a skinny pole high above the stage---amazing!
The amount of hamilton references in the comments annoy me terribly. Appreciate this amazing performance for what it is! Renee's an incredible performer and her Mimi characterization should be appreciated.
Claudia Ciempka Yeah. I don’t like half of the Hamilton fandom. It’s so fucking toxic and it ruins the show. And when they see a cast member out of Hamilton, they’re just saying that it’s the same character from Hamilton. I hate it when people do that!!!! People need to realise that Hamilton isn’t the only musical to exist!
Sophie Andrew omlll that’s so true- like totally respect Hamilton, but the fandom is full of 12 year olds- that put historical characters in ships and take it way out of contact. They need to accept that the actors aren’t actually the characters they play and don’t need to be referenced to their one role in Hamilton to their other roles
Can we just appreciate Renee’s ability to keep a steady non shaken voice while moving around so fast like that?? Like HOW DOES ONE NOT LOSE BREATH!! I start panting after walking like five minutes
People need to stop talking about Hamilton on this video. Renee did so much more before Hamilton. You shouldn't define her by one role. Jeez people and it's ROGER. Not Rodger.
Funniest story. We're doing a musical theatre class and came up with a script. I chose this for a solo, in the context of the character trying to convince her friend to go out to have fun for the night. Girl playing the friend wanted to solo "Burn" from Hamilton, so my character name was changed to Angelica to fit lyrics from the song "Burn". I came to this video, saw the comments, googled, and found out she played Angelica in Hamilton. What are the odds??! 😂😂😂
When she sings “your on the line with a feline, of Avenue b” I go crazzzzyyy!!!! Like she sings that part soooo unique and powerful and just amazing! The drop of her voice on feline and the tone she has singing Avenue like pure gold
i don't see why anyone could dislike this performance. Everyone who does is missing one major factor, she's all over the place. she does more kicks and jumps and things than any other mimi in history, and she's not out of breath. She's not flat or sharp or dropping out words and notes she hit everything while being all over the place. Masculine? i totally disagree. This number is all about sex, she portrays how rough it can be. I guess i'm biased because i loved her in OLTL, but i loved it!!!
OKAY the lack of people cheering in amazement at 1:34 is disturbing - do you realize how hard it is to go full spread eagle oN A RAIL? IN SKINTIGHT LEATHER LEGGINGS? WHILE SINGING? AND ACTING LIKE YOU’RE NOT AFRAID OF FALLING BACK OR SLIDING FORWARD? nah, she hit that and took my breath away
Rosario’s voice, seriously? No shade to Dawson but you’re comparing a studio version to a live version... she got to stand still in a studio with headphones on and sing it as many times as she needed to and punch in every little part until it was exactly right. Anyway in terms of character I think Daphne’s voice suits Mimi the best anyway. It has that fat contralto timbre, giving Mimi the rough edge she should rightfully have
+Petr Loučka yeah it wouldnt be allowed on playback in live theatre especially in a play this big. honestly if you asked a musical theatre person if they mimed a song they would be pissed
The athleticism in the choreography is impressive enough, but the fact that her voice is so steady throughout the dance is insane
Seriously! I think Rosario’s voice was the best for the role - it has that sort of raspy rock sound - but Renee’s voice is arguably the most powerful and well-trained.
@@rzawilski Tamrya Gray has an amazingly powerful voice as Mimi as well.
"let's go ouuuuut toniiiight!"
"daddy said to be home by sundown."
oooooo
Daddy doesn't need to know.
Snitches get stitches, Peggy
She languished in a loveless marriage in London??? Pfft......
"Daddy said not to go downtown."
So she went upstate to take a break, and this is what happened. And Roger said no to this!
People who are hating don't realize how hard it is to jump, act, sing, dancing, twerk and be all round sexy while STILL looking fit as holy hell.
Muggles.
I know this is old but I 100% agree; so many different skills going on here. Not to mention how dangerous a lot of the things she is doing physically is whilst still singing and acting at the same time
Muggles yesss
1:05 stand there on heels. GURL
I am not a Muggle I am a Ravenclaw
Especially at 37
Only Renee can sing upside down. She's such a queen
You sound like someone who appreciates upside-down singing. Allow me to share ruclips.net/video/zHX8fQZ8bdY/видео.html.
finally not a comment about Hamilton! 😂
Every Mimi can sing upside down.
@@darth_kal-el yeah but not like queen Renee
@@darth_kal-el ikr? it's literally part of the casting requirement
So this is what Angelica was doing when they were upstate..
I'm crying
OH MY GOD
Physical_Fatality Im dead
I KNEW SHE LOOKED FAMILIAR OMG THIS ALL MAKES SENSE
LOL
this performance is actually insane. this a true example of a triple threat. comparing renee's mimi out tonight performance to vanessa's makes you realize how freaking talented renee is.
I can't hardly walk up and down a flight of stairs without breathing hard let alone dance and sing down them.
and in HEELS!!!
She's without a doubt the best Mimi. Not a second of it is awkward like with other performances as Mimi. She just nails it.
Juliette Wood yes
I agree, but you do also have to remember that this was filmed in multiple parts. Some of it was the closeups and some of it was the live performance in front of the crowd. She is my favorite Mimi as well, but keep that in mind. They made sure it was perfect.
Juliette Wood and she was 37, playing a 19 year old. She is awesome.
Rosario is the best
Juliette Wood I just saw this musical im Aruba. They were amazing! She rocked the stage!
No matter how many times I see this, I always have heart palpitations until Mimi is safely on the ground.
i thought i was the only one *pinches heart*
And rodger is penniless, hah, that doesn't mean I want him any less.
good one!!!!👍
Love it
At the same time she was poor too 😅
Yuss
HOW DOES SHE SING WHILE FLYING AROUND LIKE THAT
HOW DOES SHE NOT FALL OFF???
HOW DOES SHE CATCH HER BREATH???
HOW DOES SHE NOT GET DIZZY?????
AND SHES UPSIDE DOWN??????
AND SHE SOUNDS PERFECT
AND LOOKS INCREDIBLE
AND ITS LIKE NOT AWKWARD AT ALL LIKE SHES SLAYING
k can I just be renee
Lin Trash Well, she’s a professional actress. And they can do QUITE a lot in musical theatre without feeling tired or nauseous.
She is really showing why she has a Tony here
AND she was 39! Not even in her 20’s 😃
I know Mia Morrissey who is playing Mimi in Rent at the Sydney opera house next year and Can’t wait to see her do this!!!

true but can we all just agree that Renee has such a good voice
anyone else here to hear her sing the word "chrome"???? cause im here for renee, and that one freakin word. jesus lord shes talented
i didn't pay attention to that, but now it's my favourite way of saying a word by anyone ever
Timestamp?
ellie taylor 2:30
Princess Marian thanks, idk why I couldn’t find that word 😂
It was such a Wickie moment it made me lol
I'll be jealous of that woman's body and talent for the rest of my life
And she’s about 50 now it blows my mind how good this woman still looks, sounds, and dances. And she has children! I’m super jealous lol 😂

Of course this performance is going to be way different than the movie. No joke. You can't compare them unless you've seen them both in similar formats.
I didn't think of it that way. I guess Rosario could of had multiple takes to get it perfect.
Do people actually not like Rosario's performance? I thought she was perfect for the role.
@@TheNotoriousDUDE I thought Rosario was the best Mimi ever!!! The quality of her voice is amazing.
😂😂😂 who the heck compares threatre to film. With film you can do retakes. With threatre you can't and also in the film they are lip syncing and aren't really singing like in live threatre
@@jennquinn1117 she also didnt sing it live
it's amazing how good she sounds when doing all that choreography. really impressive.
This woman is legendary she did that whole thing IN HEELS
I'm just saying, Mimi, if you love him, you could share him!
Ha!
Im in the living room stressin
😂👌🏼
She will never be satisfied
Omg i love this comunity😂😂😂😂😂
I live for the way she says "don't forsake me"
Kenya Gonzalez me too
oh my GOD do you have ANY IDEA what kind of breath support *from hell* she must have?
I love Hamilton like more than life (legit one of the biggest fans ever), but can we all just focus on her SIX PACK FOR A SECOND DEAR LORD
Grofflin She's ripped holy fuck. She is life goals in human form, perfect body, perfect voice. I'm pretty sure she's an angel disguised as a stage actress.
Nah yo. This girl is the best Mimi I've seen, hands down.
Agreed
Madison Oliver Probably one of my favourites!
Two things.
1. Of course, her little stint upside down is awesome. But I’m more impressed at her core strength staying upright and balanced when she’s standing on the high railings. And looks totally fearless doing it.
2. Her little run on ‘chrome’ still gives me life 10 years later. 😍
can we appreciate that renee did that whole number in stiletto boots
I don't get why people are comparing Renee with Rosario 😐
I think both are great! Renee is definitely more animated and energetic, and while some may say it's overkill, we need to remember that this is a LIVE MUSICAL, meaning no fancy effects - she has to make up for that somehow
Can't wait to see this beaut win her first tony next year for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a musical for Hamilton!
it happened!!:)
+Selena “Wiener” Montoya I knew it would!
Tyler Maxwell heck she should have won a Tony for this
TheForestFamily I don't think casts after the original can win Tony's
I loved Renee as Mimi, she killed it even tho she was 37 when Mimi is meant to be 19! She brings the energy and confidence Mimi has :)
No way!
RENÉE IS 45 AND SHE CAN DO THIS SHIT AND I CANT EVEN TOUCH MY TOES
Leona Abrera DAMn SHE'S STILL GOT IT TOO. Honestly, she's got mad skills.
None original Name she was 37 I think
renee's facial expressions always kills me, so much talent!
Just saw Renee in Hamilton and got to meet her at the stage door after the show. I'm such a huge fan and have been ever since seeing her in this so many years ago. Gotta love her!
I am so jealous! I would die to meet her!
SAY NO TO THIS, RODGER
+JuliaTheBookMonster I LOVE YOU
+Emma Mueller LOVE YOU TOO. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
+JuliaTheBookMonster Roger did a better job than Alexander
+Estelle T Ha! Too true.
You're my hero 😂👍🏻
Now Angelica, Rodger is just as broke as Alexander
+Sage Matise that doesn't mean she wants him any less.
daphne blake and he's handsome, boy does he know it
peach fuzz and he can't even grow it
she wants to take him far away from this place
Nicky Nichols she doesn’t need any money, she can get in for free
I love how she gestures towards her "scars"...so soulful, so powerful. And how she rocks each note while maintaining her balance on a skinny pole high above the stage---amazing!
That’s what a performance is ladies and gentlemen! She made it look so effortless even though that was quite the workout with vocals!
How is this even physically possible??
"Chrome" gave me chills. Just a small part of this brilliant rendition can be so effective!
love renee, one of the real gems of broadway - smashes it in every performance, not to mention she's swinging around and still sounding amazing
The amount of hamilton references in the comments annoy me terribly. Appreciate this amazing performance for what it is! Renee's an incredible performer and her Mimi characterization should be appreciated.
Violet Taylor 👏👏
she will never be satisfied
God, I hope she's satisfied
Wow, she is perfect for this role. I’ve only ever seen her in Hamilton and I wouldn’t have thought she’d suit a role like this so much.
I saw this before Hamilton
Angelica. We need to talk
Kiersten Simpson she really did have a phase there, didn’t she?
Kiersten Simpson This isn’t Angelica.
Sophie Andrew this is
Dorissa Claire No. It’s not. Reneè did so much before she did Hamilton. And Rent was YEARS before Hamilton. So it’s not Angelica.
Sophie Andrew r/whoooosh much?
I hate this comment section. It's all about Renee being in Hamilton and not even about her performance in the video
swag daddy honestly. Well I thought her performance was fantastic. Very strong vocals
Be it Rent or Hamilton, she is a badass!
Claudia Ciempka Yeah. I don’t like half of the Hamilton fandom. It’s so fucking toxic and it ruins the show.

I will just appreciate Renees performance instead of saying something bout Hamilton

Pauly Walnuts thank you for correcting people how to spell Roger's name.
Pauly Walnuts THANK YOU! Really! The people need to know that Angelica wasn’t Reneè’s only role!
My mom saw her on One Life To Live
i love her as mimi. she really portrays how flirtatious and fun mimi is!!!
i got here from hamilton, and now i love renee
RENÉE IS INCREDIBLE

yeeessss😭😭😭❤️
I love this woman so much.
Such talent in one performance. Love her pants!
Movie version will forever be the best for me.
This woman is amazing.
That was a well done low note. Nice lady.
Her voice is so powerful and all the dancing is just amazing, what a queen!
This performance is a drug to me. I always watch everyday. she's the best mimi
Woo!!! Renee Elise Goldsberry is so beautiful and amazing. feel so lucky to have seen the Broadway play Rent twice.
Renée could break my knee caps and I'd thank her.
a good broadway performer is something else. all that choreo and she still sounds incredible!! feat of power and precision
That one dislike is from Philip Scuyler watching his daughter Angelica.
DEAR GOD SHE'S SO AMAZING
The way she sings “chrome” is SO DAMN SMOOTH!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍
Oh my goodness, she's amazing.
She is a goddess, she can do dancing, acrobatics, sing, act, wear impossible outfits and, do it heels.
Angelica? Was this what you were hiding from us? Is this what you did upstate? oh my god the world's biggest mystery: solved.
Olivia Perez This is Renee Elise goldsberry, this was a long time after Angelica was alive
wow this woman got ENERGY...I-I-I could never...
she’s so amazing 😩😩
renee is great as mimi omg i love her
WHAT A QUEEN THOUGH WTF
This might be my favorite performance of Out Tonight from all of the mimi's I've ever seen.
i still come back to this in 2020
and here i am still coming back in 2021 lmao
This is why daddy doesn’t let you go downtown
Can I just please be Renee or just a fraction of how talented she is
Half of this comment section is Hamilton references 😂
Renee is such an inspiration for me !! She excludes confidence when she performs . I love that about her
What I love about this is that she looks like she's having so much fun...especially tawords the end...that's what makes it fun to watch.
Mimi is the most energetic heroin addict in the world :D but dang! Those moves, woman! And singing it all too. I'm in awe
she's so talented just amazing performance...
i don't see why anyone could dislike this performance. Everyone who does is missing one major factor, she's all over the place. she does more kicks and jumps and things than any other mimi in history, and she's not out of breath.

it’s considered bad theater etiquette to cheer while they’re performing
@@daniellelicht5093 never heard that rule before, but to each their own
37 years old! Renee is incredible
i cant stop listening to that amazing 'that you're online with the feline'. renee was such an amazing mimi.
MY MIND IS BLOWN. THIS IS SO GOOD.
I'm always terrifies when she stands on those bars.
Absolutely seamless hitting that high note
wow she looks the same as she does now wtf she looks so good!
Who knew Angelica was a pole dancer!!!
went here to cleanse myself after watching vanessa hudgens’ version 😭
Oh POINT! Iconic.
How can anyone sound that good while dancing that well
1:40 SLAY ME!!!!!!!!!! Renee totally made that riff her own omggg
she's good.
Renee's Energy+ Rosario's Voice+ Daphne's Looks= PERFECT MIMI
Rosario’s voice, seriously? No shade to Dawson but you’re comparing a studio version to a live version... she got to stand still in a studio with headphones on and sing it as many times as she needed to and punch in every little part until it was exactly right.
Anyway in terms of character I think Daphne’s voice suits Mimi the best anyway. It has that fat contralto timbre, giving Mimi the rough edge she should rightfully have
This is why we love Renee
she is outstanding! I love her performnace so much, could watch it everyday (and sometimes i do.) ^^
Watching this video, I simply cannot believe that it was a live performance. Who else think that the voice was on playback? :)
You underestimate the power of a thespian.
+Petr Loučka yeah it wouldnt be allowed on playback in live theatre especially in a play this big. honestly if you asked a musical theatre person if they mimed a song they would be pissed
She’s amazing in anything she does
This is the best version of out tonight I've heard live
