Cynthia Erivo gets forced into singing I'M A STAR by Scott Alan

[hellolovely]

how dare Cynthia be able to sing I'm a Star totally off the cuff with no rehearsal as a surprise right on the spot... she's TOO AMAZING. and I love her so much!!!!

[theaterguy]

She can just pull that out with no rehearsal? That's disgusting. I mean that in the most respectful way possible of course. So amazing, what a talent.

[barkingcatswow]

You didn't disappoint us as Elphie, Cynthia. You're amazing. Give us a live Defying Gravity now!

[charissa]

This is just wow. Her voice. All us musical theatre students just quit after watching this.
So yea i’m quitting

[showtunes]

Cynthia, dear Cynthia. For so long I've followed Natalie Weiss and lived vicariously through her innate ability to sing a number of styles and on que. However, lately you've stolen my heart. Thank you for sharing your talent with me and the rest of the world. :-)

[dustyhart]

I was there and Cynthia as always was a star!! X

[staceyjwonfor]

The most impossible song, and she just smacks it out with no rehearsal - Pure PURE vocal perfection!!

[BradyCT]

Years later... yes a Oscar nomination, Tony, Grammy winner.... I think a winner

[islandeatssand]

This is the first time I've heard her sing but damn, she's amazing. Love her tone. Before now I've only heard Alex Newell's version of the song.

[beylover]

the “i fuckin hate u” at the end is so funny 😭 but also I feel so bad this song is hard asf, good thing she is a brilliant singer!!!

[Starisborne]

Only her can do this the way she would do it cause this is breathtaking

[karibu]

I will risk everything
If that's what it takes
I can be what you want
I know all that's at stake

All the strength and the will
All the vigor and fight
When I stand on that stage
Watch my spirit take flight

There's a dream I anticipated
Just you wait--
'Cause I know I'll be celebrated

I just need you to see
All the hope and the drive
This is all that I know
It's what keeps me alive

I know everything I need to know
I know every song
Just give me a stage and strike the lights
I will prove I belong

I have dreamt wide awake
I have dreamt with my heart
All I need is a break
So that the real dream can start
