brought tears to my eyes. There is being your character and there is becoming your character. She became Effie. She was beautiful. Completely shot down and heartbroken after she was made to believe she was loved by that man. Amazing
She may have stumbled on the words, but who would have known, right?? She is absolutely amazing! That's what theater is all about. Not letting the audience know that you made a mistake.
the cold expression on his face when shes begging him to stay the glitter eye shadow on her eyes to makes it look like shes crying, its all works together !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its a great production of this play and i hope she goes on to greater things but she should work on her acting (no offense)
SERIOUSLY, this girl is AMAZING!!!!! I can't believe this is a high school production!! Little girl, get yourself on American Idol or even better...to Broadway!!!

tone it down ugly. i dont have to pretend to be a smart ass like you to give an opinion. "intellectually superior" please einstein, go with that crap somewhere else..not in youtube pleaseeee. jeezzz. *dislikes loosers that try to sound like they passed calculus in 2nd grade*
My god, I'm a musical theatre vocal coach, is this is one of the most amazing performances I have seen. Absolute perfection, stunning and moving!!! My best to you for a brilliant career.
She has an amazing voice. I would love to see her perform with an acting partner who gave her a little more to work with. She has amazing potential acting wise.

Jennifer Holliday would be crackin up right now she didn't know the words she just got up the and started singing and couldn't follow the music i don't mean to be mean but it's true bless her heart for trying though and may she have a great blessd(FLORENCE BALLARD,PATTI LABELLE,JENNIFER HOLLIDAY DAY)
Beautiful...u by far sang that song better then any other person on here ever could...U did Jennifer Holiday and Hudson unbelievable justice nice work!!! Bravo!!!!
i cant believe it...i am literaly in tears...like you can sing your ass off i dont care what nobody say...keep doin ya thing gurl cuz you worked dat shit
You'd cry, too, if you had that backup band ... but seriously, the lead singer gave a great vocal and visual rendition of this song. Hope we get the pleasure of seeing her release albums at some future time.
Because the vocals on this were so amazing it is VERY easy to forgive the lyrical mix up in the bridge. - Kudos to this young lady for a great vocal performance.
SOMEONE GIVE THIS BITCH A SCRIPT. 'TEAR DOWN THE MOUNTAINS' 6 TIMES. IM GONNA NEED HER TO GET IT TOGETHER. the pit should have quite after the third 'tear down the mountain'... thats all.
This was a much better performance of this song than any other cover!!! It had me in chills. This girl snapped, crackled, popped! She almost up there with J. Hud and J. Hol! Get it sista!
