Denee is a beautiful soul with a voice that's light yet incredibly strong... with a whisper she could bring the house to tears... if you don't believe me, listen to her sing "No One Else." Not since Pretty Yende (look her up while you're at it) have I been so enraptured by a voice so sublime!
Went to middle school where she went to high school (Trinity Prep in Orlando FL) -- I was in a production of "Ragtime" with her -- incredible to see her succeed & shine!!
She's right, seeing a black woman as a princess is super empowering. The little girl inside me who was obsessed with Disney movies is crying with joy, I'm officially so obsessed with Denee!! ❤
Michael Travis first off, she was a frog for about 80% of the movie, second, that's a cartoon. Seeing a real flesh and blood human that they can reach out and touch means so much more to kids than what's on a screen. Why do kids go apeshit when they go to Disney World? Because the characters they thought only existed on screens are now able to reach out and hug them.
I just finished listening to the recording and read the sliver COMET is based on. I knew she was gorgeous but you can tell by her personality she's just PERFECT for the role! Lovely and light and bubbling.
Beautiful woman! She’s awesome! Been watching videos after videos of her. She’s addicting! Lea Salonga is my first and all time love, and then this girl.
Supported her till she got political. Its okay to get political, but not in the childish way of just calling those you disagree with names instead of actually offering a well worded and dissenting argument
She is absolutely gorgeous and very likable, but it seems wrong that she plays Natasha Rostova. This character holds a very special place in Russian culture, she represents the very soul it. I know, I'll probably get a lot of hate for my comment, but how would you it if a pale Russian dude played Martin Luther King?
So... your argument for her playing a Russian aristocrat is an article, in which the author is bitching about white people playing characters of other races. Do you really not see the irony?
Liyah U I'm not arguing. The point that you've likely seen one of those movies and never batted an eyelash at the idea of race. I know I didn't, and I'm black! The point is, let it go. I'm not gonna argue with you. disagree if you like.

"The Hamilton assassins are gonna come get me."
No! Don't worry! You've got Pippa insurance. All Natashas are safe!
Daniela Rivera I LOVE THE WAY YOU SAID THAT!!! 😂😂😂

Catherine Olivia *channels Lin Manuel Miranda* BAHAHAHA
I'M CRYING PIPPA INSURANCE 😂😂
She better play Peggy or one of the Schuyler Sisters next! Someone call Lin!

Can we morph her and Pippa into one person and have them both play Natasha at once? If so, I think that the world will be perfect.

Liyah U Natasha is fictional, MLK is a real person
Her dress is too big. Or she is too small for it. Just saying.
