I can honestly say, and I know I'm not the only on, but not only has RENT changed MY life, but so have you, Nat. Following your struggles and wondering for weeks at a time if you were okay while you were gone. We care about you. As strange as that is, seeing as we haven't all met you and maybe never will, but we do. We care about you. You are amazing and I speak for us all when I say, I can't wait to see you reach your dreams. It so close now. You are fantastic Natalie, never forget it.
Stunning perfomrance Natalie. But, we've come to expect that from you. The stage truly is your home. I look forward to great things from you in 2012 and forward.
Natalie, I just started watching your videos a couple months ago when i was on a "Wicked" kick. You are an amazing performer. I'm so glad you posted this because i was just cast in Jacksonville State University's production of Rent. You have such a talent and I hope to see more come from you. =D
excellent job, Natalie! I'd been wanting to see your stage performances from "Rent" & "Cats". I'm so happy for you that you're getting to pursue your dream, you inspire me, & I wish you only the best! break both legs, girl! =D
I hope this means you're coming back to musical theatre! You have such a talent for it.
AND HOLY MOTHER OF GOD! You sound pretty much EXACTLY like Idina Menzel. (that's a compliment) You did such a great job! Wishing you the best for 2012! <3
Natalie…my dear, you worked that song like a hooker pole, LOL! I've been watching your videos and listening to your wonderful music about a year after the AvidActress007 phenomena took over YouTube. Your performances have made me laugh, cry, ponder life, and squee with joy. I hope you know that you’ve inspired and become a role model to so many aspiring artists, myself included.
The stage is definitely your home. You were the first youtuber I ever got into, I've seen every one of your videos and get so excited when I see a new one. I for one, will always be by your side cheering you on. Can't wait to see whats in store, I love you Natalie!
You OWNED it!! I remember the first video I watched of yours was Popular from Wicked and I said to myself "Who is this girl!?!?" I've never heard a voice like that outside of Broadway. She's gonna be famous!"
I feel privileged that I was present to see your performance live at LPC. You did an amazing job as always. You are a born performer and you keep getting better and better, to the point where you are now one of the best musical actors I've ever seen. Keep working hard and your name will someday be known by millions. Have a wonderful and successful 2012!
more than amazing! i too found you years ago and i haven't stopped following you. I know you'll reach your goals and i hope we still get to watch you the whole way through them. thank you for all of your time and devotion to us in youtube land :-) HAPPY NEW YEAR!
OMG. THIS IS INCREDIBLE. As good as Idina Menzal easilly. Natalie, I remember you a couple of years to go, I asked for you to look at one of my videos. I was only about 13. You gave me so much inspiration and left such lovely messages. I now have an album on itunes! I'm so glad everythings going so well for you! You're practically my hero! LOVE YOU! :D <3
we love you natalie, happy new year may all you wish come true, you can make them come true.it amazing looking how far you have come thank you just thank you <3
RENT is hands down my favorite musical! Loved you doing this!! Someone has already asked, but I'll ask too... ^_^ How/Why did this show change your life?
FANTASTIC.....enjoy your Journey....when you know you're on the right path you can feel it.....Happy 2012...We will be here to scream support and love for you when you need us! thanks for sharing with us!
Ah... I really love your voice, perfect Maureen. I hope you have a wonderful year and your dreams come true for you. Best wishes from me, your mostly silent, but still very much loyal fan.
so i'm only about 30 seconds into your performance but my gosh do you sound SO much like idina menzel. but that doesn't mean you're any less you and i'm sure you put so much of who you are into the character as well. back to watching. cheers!
You were perfect as Maureen, Natalie. RENT is one of my all-time favorite musicals, and you really succeeded in portraying Maureen well. My only regret is that I wish I had been in the audience! Anyway, I remember when you were just starting out on YouTube, and you were pretty amazing then - let alone now. Your future is very bright. I know we'll see you on Broadway one day, right? :)
This is absolutely AMAZING, Natalie! I cannot wait to see what you do in 2012 because there's no doubt that you'll be doing some stupendous things! Loved you since the beginning and will continue to support you no matter what!
WOW, LOOK AT YOU GO GIRL, I LIKE IT, HAHAHAHAHA, YOU DOIN THE DAMN THING, AING YA
