[VapidFood]

This song is so inspiring and Anika is an amazing singer :)

[tflames99]

happy #BlackHistoryMonth ERREBODI

YES N DEEEED

[NoLongerASheeple]

stop with the incessant camera clicking!!!! -.-

[Smifarino]

I love her!!! She shows that Altos are just as talented as sopranos, and she doesn't sound like she's growling, or yelling like Jennifer Hudson when she sings.

[jariemonah]

Out of the three Dreamgirls Disney were choosing Tiana's voice for, I'm glad they chose Anika. It might be because she's the lesser known of the three (Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson), but her voice is perfect.

[AwesomeGirl9700]

I'm in love omg!!:D

[hanypatany853]

She's flawless.

[ToujoursLaMusique]

That last note.... Wow...

[LeahJadeClayton]

Whoaaa Shes got a good voice shes got sume swagger anall

[RicoValentineAbi]

SHE GOT IT ! thats fricken bomb ! she got one heck of a voice

[RicoValentineAbi]

[DymDsk]

[nikkib2903]

[miggleschick]

LOVE HER VOICE SHE IS SOO PRETTY

[Giqantic]

OMG A BLACK PRINCESS.

Oh wait, who cares.

[StrawberrySarah4eva]

she's the ONLY disney gal i actually like :3 She's so real though.. well.. except from getting the Prince at the end. real life the prince ends up being a complete Dickhead :3

[ChikoWhat]

Damn it Disney, just damn it.

[MissPrettyGorgeous]

love the song! disney needs to hurry up and make a hispanic princess

[rozluv2237]

i love this so much. but yeah know, i wish there was such thing as a filipino princess sometimes <3

[CanYouGetCrazy]

took them long enough for a black princess

[TheQuintheQuin]

just the way she preforms so relaxed and fun-filled is so birght! This put a wide smile on my face

[Aurora7]

She's brilliant!

[ADHDBasketcase]

Oh I love me some soul.

[cherrygal909]

She's a princess aswel as a dreamgirl:)

[DrPaynesTrain]

@10stargazer10 its because her princess was inspiring.

[vasalmon]

It feels wrong to be this attracted to a Disney Princess.

[vickygibran]

loooved itttt!

[springichoose]

my gosh the voice singers look like princess themselves!!!

[MattxDC]

@springichoose Disney incorporates the voice actors into the idea of the Disney Princesses.

Most recent Mandy Moore is an excellent example.

[caligrlie08]

first a dreamgirl then a princess...i love anika!

[StrandCassie18]

I LOVE YOU ANIKA, Ur so amazingly tab talented and you've got talent written all over you (expression).

[AimeeMations]

the 4 people who disliked this video have no soul....

[randommegs]

wish i could see her face more :(

[K8lyn1605]

whoa! Goose bumps!

[litcheerose]

She's perfect <3

[luckycharmzt20]

does anyone besides me think she looks like princess tiana?

[LeahJadeClayton]

@luckycharmzt20 Defo

[sango1161]

@luckycharmzt20 yea ha ha and she has the voice of her

[maireadisplendid]

@luckycharmzt20 i was just going to write that!!!

[areese12]

@luckycharmzt20 they did that on purpose.....

[Bratzs13]

@luckycharmzt20 she does

[thesilentkitten]

@luckycharmzt20 thats because tiana's face was loosely based off of her

[JohnGarrisonCovers]

@luckycharmzt20 Actually for this movie, they actually based the looks off the characters that played the parts. Just look at how similar they all look to their parts.

[sarahsedation]

WOWOWOWOWOWOW She may actually be my new favourite princess.

[singgurl366]

its like im watching the video right now. she's so amazing :)

[nicefanful]

she's so damn graceful! i love watching her sing

[RoseWind2]

I luv her voice!!!

[FiouxBey]

I like this better than the movie!

[Kleighrauner]

@FiouxBey that's what i'm saying lol.

[23kags23]

This princess has some major Swag.

[ChikoWhat]

@23kags23 I hate the overuse of swag, but this time it's so fitting.

I can't find a problem there.

[jennifermin15]

i wish i could sing like her... ;)

[BroadwaysDramaKing]

Well yeah she's amazing! She's originally a broadway star so she needs to sound perfect during every performance!

[LoveForMakeup31]

shes very talented and gorgeous :) we need singers like this now a days

[erinsun98]

her teeth make my eyes hurt

[MrDisneyCats]

She is one of the only people that sounds just as good live as professionally recorded.

[theASIANpiglet]

@Nokian0619 I know right! Those cameras must have megaphones attached or something!

[Nokian0619]

Can those cameras click any louder???

Anika is not a princess, she is a dazzling queen with a phenomenal voice!

Absolutely breathtaking!!!

[MalloryLautner]

Her voice *-*

[AimeeMations]

I think Princess and the Frog is SO much better that Tangled for some reason

[0WhiteRice0]

@AimeeMations interesting.......

[chazmazzer]

Oh my word, look at all that talent....

[haccarnes]

"Princess and the Frog" is one of my 2 year old son's favorite movies (mine too). LOVE Anika Noni Rose! And yes, she is a princess!!

[battousaiblade]

SHE FUCKING NAILED THAT SONG

ESPECIALLY THAT LAST PART!!!

[2ne1YGwinwin]

I dont think she deserves to be a disney legend yet. she JUST became a princess not even 2 to 3 years ago. Ariel Jasmin Belle Mulan have been around for a while and they just received the award in 2011.

[cahbittrp]

@2ne1YGwinwin Mulan saved China, not married a prince or was born princess. She is the one that don't deserve to be called a princess.

[10stargazer10]

@2ne1YGwinwin I'm pretty sure it's just because her princess is black.

[samichchillin]

She is beautiful and very talented i wish someday i could be a princess for Disney!!

[MissJoTonka]

I just love her voice...

[patmon1293]

Her tongue is so white it's nasty

[MissErisfly]

@patmon1293 thts so mean. dont hate jst cuz ur jealous

[patmon1293]

@MissErisfly it's not mean, it's true. did you look?

[MissErisfly]

@patmon1293 its also racist!

[ohmywhyamIsofly]

She is so beautiful

[inuyashaluvskag]

man i loved her in deam girls.

[ChibiMayumiko]

Where does she keep the breath!? Gosh gosh gosh, I love her

[TheYendyGomez]

WE got a french princess, Chinese, princess, we got a few white ones, now a black one, were's the Hispanic one!!!!!!

[butterflyangel999999]

@TheYendyGomez EXACTLY!!!! ME & MY SISTER WERE DISCUSSING THAT THE OTHER DAY!!! i was like.....WHERE IS OUR HISPANIC PRINCESS?!! if you think about it..Disney's gonna get alot of business if they DO create a hispanic princess... but anyways refering to this song i fell in love with this song...i really wanna sing it

[HeroineWAO]

@butterflyangel999999 Disney said themselves they think they are done with new princess movies.

[ShaheenShine123]

@TheYendyGomez and an indian asian princess!

[ggloomdoom]

absolutely flawless.

[coleyduh]

By far my favorite disney princess!

[TheYorkielover35]

Sounds just like Tiana!! Her voice hasn't changed since '09

[xVivirDeAmorx]

@TheYorkielover35 well I doubt three years will change a persons voice that much

[sydthebunny]

I get that the voice is the focus...but I want her teeth XD

[kateyfeng]

She's in The Good Wife right now!

[MadTvLove09]

sensational! i will never get tired of hearing this :)

[OMGitzQuidijah]

Her singing is just amazing i wish i had her voice(;

[xxladybug94]

she's gorgeous <3

[theeGLAMstarr09]

@pmpblue She marries a prince. Go have a seat somewhere AWAY from the computer.

[metallikato]

It's, like, IMPOSSIBLE to sing this song without moving your body in some way! :D

[ohhkenziie]

She even looks like Tiana! She's so beautiful.

[dejagurlful]

WoW she is Amazing, Beautiful like all the other princess,She is an lovely new tradition to the princess family, she will fit right in :D , with her beautiful singing voice tht can only touch an angle from above, GOD bless her...what would we do witout her

[Puppyloves88]

Looove!!! :)

[ErinGrace29]

The music from this movie was fabulous.

[rere994]

She's better live than she was in the movie! Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?!

[MJAnnieH]

THAT WAS ANIKA WONDER. Sheesh. Beautiful <3

[XitsXonlyXaXdreamX]

but she's..............BLACK

[xKomadori]

@XitsXonlyXaXdreamX NOOooo. I thought she was green. .-.

[MeowzKitty]

@XitsXonlyXaXdreamX And beautiful

[orangeorangeoren]

@XitsXonlyXaXdreamX and you're stupid

[pmpblue]

good god tiana is not a princess she is a great singer but she is not a princess

[mommyimhungry]

@pmpblue she marries a prince, she's a princess.

[blackdymeond]

@pmpblue that's true, but neither are Belle and Mulan. Only Ariel and Jasmine are actual royalty before meeting the guy. that's y I love Disney! They celebrate the inner princess lol

[xxladybug94]

@blackdymeond

don't forget Rapunzel ;)

[inuyashaluvskag]

@blackdymeond don't forget cinderella and snow white. Cinderella was the daughter of nobiltity and Snow was a princess. :D

[ASKGS]

@blackdymeond snow white, rapunzel, sleeping beauty were also born princesses.

[dejagurlful]

@pmpblue u an ignorant person, all princess are beautiful!! they r unique in their own special way,and she is a princess u dummy because if she wasn't she wouldn't have been brought into the disney kingdom and had been introduced worldwide plus she actually was shown in the british palace with all the other princess as shown on disney channel, so u feel stupid!!!! next time think before u say things online!!!!!

[xxxLoVeLyBoNeSxxx10]

She is the best disney princess i think honestly her voice is so natural, she enjoys performing, i love the movie, and she puts a little soul into disney<3

[MHchick14]

om jesus her voice is sooo amazing i wish i had it

[1sabsfan]

how is her hair like dat?

[safara1011]

YES! My favorite movie, and my favorite song form the movie!!! THANKS!!!!! :D

[milkshakemaisie]

love her voice

[alonzo9772]

I like that that they went authentic and didn't just hired a singer for the actress.

[WearySoulsearcher]

omg, she's so talented! her style is so effortless, and flows so well! Amazing <3

[UnePetiteAmie]

I liked this movie.....but not a classic....at least not yet.

[perfection202]

I wish she would come out with an album.

[SchuttPants1990]

God, she's beautiful. And so talented.

[johnnydeppissohottt]

God, I love her.

[Tigresswoman97]

i love her eyeroll at 0:47

[KyleS546]

Sexiest women alive

[totalmollipop]

She just made me smile, she's got so much energy and life in her.

[BayMickie]

@RUmpelteazerCATS01 they based Tiana to look like Anika.

[meaganl124]

For me, she isn't special yet, cause it's been like 4 years- but the others have been classics for 20! So...in 15 years, I'll come back to Anika. ;)

But she's so fantastic.

[Atalla]

She's so pretty :) And what an awesome voice!

[TrufflesTheMushroom]

Didn't expect such a lively, sexy performance.

Dayum, what a lovely woman.

[RumpelteazerCATS01]

she acually looks like tiana

[cubancat27]

Damn she has good lungs!

[aranch97]

she is beautiful

[sexyTiffanyluv101]

O.o i got goose bumps amazing c:

[AngelicVampireShadow]

I don't see a few disney princesses in any of these videos and it is upsetting. Where's Pocahontas and Snow white? Sleeping beauty?

[koffiemokie]

@AngelicVampireShadow sleeping beauty was recorded in the 1959 i think sleeping beauty is not so got with her vocals these days Pocahontas was recorded by vanessa williams "ges she was occupyd" And Snow White was from 1961,,,same thing as sleeping beauty

[myXheartX4]

Anika's voice is amazing and she looks absolutely stunning! It is very cool to see her perform this because I was Princess Tiana at a fund raiser for my school! :D

[MIndless4RayRay]

She's Soooo Pretty

[MIndless4RayRay]

OMG , Amazing :))

[bcount1]

[karenmysterio619]

She inspires me to keep on trying in music, maybe I can get almost there in the music industry :) Thank you Disney!

[Fafnerluver922]

damn cameras ><

[esaladydimplez]

wat a voice!!

[maibunnygirl]

She's "almost" there? She IS there! She. Is. AMAZING.

[Tigresswoman97]

is she lip syncing? i don't think so, but it sounds a LOT like the recording...

[MissDevaigh]

@Tigresswoman97 I doubt it. She's trained. I'm fairly certain she worked on Broadway. Shed have to have pipes to do that.

[ra0mel0kod]

@MissDevaigh yea thats live, and she has a Tony, she knows what shes doing lol

[musicfreak1345]

AMAZING!!! OMG!!!! i idolize these four women in these videos

[Lullaby327]

I hate this song, but my goodness she's just so dang good at singing it! I listen to it just to marvel at how phenomenal she is

oh god, she's so gor
