When Maya sang Twinkle Twinkle in Gwen Stefani's voice, she actually given us a hint of a beautiful singing voice she inherited from her mother singer Minnie Riperton.
She's funny..wholesome and talented and that has a lot to do with it :) Talented family. Mom is Minnie Riperton(Loving you) and dads was moms producer/husband. Jus lil facts.. She has 4kids! One has Minnie as 1st name.. another as her middle name. Miya's a good daughter and mom in this biz... Loved her mom! RIP Minne!
Her mom wrote that "loving you is easy because you're beautiful song for her." That's why at the end her mom sings "mya, mya, mya..." It's really touching.
+Mr.Magnifico there is a live version where she goes off and sings mya mya mya at the end. It might not have been in the official lyrics but it was definitely written for her and she definitely sang it like that before she passed.
There is no other woman funnier than her............... Since the 1st time I saw her on SNL many years back........ So awesome to have a woman like her to make us laugh! Gorgeously hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it....................
Maya Rudolph is the best female at impressions than just about anyone I've heard on TV/movies. She makes some of the best faces that you can't help but laugh! Love you Maya!
I love when Ellen knows exactly what her guest is doing, but she puts on that clueless smile and lets them desperately free-play for more time just to entertain herself and the audience. I love Ellen.
I noticed that your videos don't have captions available, I'd like to ask that you add them to be inclusive to the deaf community. Your support and consideration are much appreciated!
Her Gwen Stefani is more Gwen Stefani than Gwen herself.
right? ahahahah
Jajajajajaja
Leonardo Costa congrats on copying another's comment
I love her laugh so much :DDDD
Leonardo Costa I hate Ellen ' s stupid little face.
That Gwen Stefani! OMG!!! Can't get any better than that! lol

How do you know 👤👤👤👤

+Deb Hawkins so do i dude
"If you wanna twinkle with my little star"..she made it sound so suggestive lol

Well it's Rihanna after all ;-P

I loved minnie riperton
@@teresasmith2161 Me too❤❤
That is the most normal dressed celeb ever. 😊
Yeah i was about to say it. She is so down to earth, refreshing somehow
Was thinking that too:) how chill.
This was 8 years ago though
Hannah McCallum exactly. It was cool then to dress down
She looks like a WHITE woman
She had 3 SECONDS to think of a Gwen Stefani impression and she did that???!!!!! OMFG!! DAMN MAYAAA!! My favorite snl actress btw..!!!
Its tv... Dont take It literal
Kristeen Wiig is the best
Ian Cutamora different people, different opinions
She already had mastered that one. Still amazing though.
Her mother IS.THE LATE GREAT SINGER MINNIE RIPERTON
I love her Gwen Stefani voice.
that gwen stefani impression was so spot on
does anyone else notice how sang EXACTLY like Gwen Stefani's pitch? im so mind blown right now...
it's pretty impressive... and she has that mouth thing exactly down.
yoyo ma your mom called, dinners ready.
yoyo ma Calm yourself, child.
Her mother was Minnie Riperton. A VERY talented singer!
That's that Minnie Ripperton coming out on cue 😁 😅🤣😂
Maya is so f-ing spot on w/ the impressions. She's great.
David Maine
Love her.. she needs even more flowers then she getting.❤❤❤
her Gwen Stefani one was on POINT.
is it just me or is Maya Rudolph extremely attractive??
Just you, you special little snowflake
+Lisa Leuschner Andersen it's not just him, but I bursted laughing with your comment man ahaha
Absolutely! I've had a crush on Maya Rudolph for years! Not only is she beautiful, but she's funny, smart and can really sing!

+jchavfour not leave fiona apple for her attractive
Her mom is Minnie Riperton !!! So talented !
Her mom was the best. My aunt used to play Back Down Memory Lane so much.
Her mom wrote that "loving you is easy because you're beautiful song for her." That's why at the end her mom sings "mya, mya, mya..." It's really touching.
+greekcambodianlove I just Googled the lyrics and there is no mention of mya anywhere.
+Mr.Magnifico there is a live version where she goes off and sings mya mya mya at the end. It might not have been in the official lyrics but it was definitely written for her and she definitely sang it like that before she passed.
Thought she was white. Not biracial.
The key part of that Gwen impression was the vibrato. A lot of people miss that when they do an impression of her.
I'm stuck in another goddamn Ellen loop.
It's like being stuck in a Rube Goldberg device
Happens to the best of us
5 years later and I'm stuck too....lol
Haha ditto
A Maya Rudolph loop brought me here
There is no other woman funnier than her............... Since the 1st time I saw her on SNL many years back........ So awesome to have a woman like her to make us laugh!
Gorgeously hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it....................
The Gwen Stefani impression was so on point , holy shit.
Red Moon 96 racism is everywhere. Let’s be careful that we don’t fall into that trap, right?
Omg I was listening to the audio only but had no problem guessing who she was impersonating. Maya Rudolph is a comedic genius!
She killed them all! Most talented actress I've ever seen.
The Gwen impression was on point!
Nikita Fox “Nikita” if you are afraid to say BLACK LIVES MATTER out loud, then you are a RACIST.
i love how all her impressions are good and she kept saying "i'm terrible at this" LOL. what a talent, so adorable.
She is more Gwen Stephani than original Gwen,hahahaha!
Maya Rudolph is the best female at impressions than just about anyone I've heard on TV/movies. She makes some of the best faces that you can't help but laugh! Love you Maya!
She nail Gwen tho lmao
She is so freakin' talented. Love Maya so much!!!
Minnie Riperton's baby... ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Minnie

I was amazed by those impersonations. So, so good. I wouldn't have had a clue how to do Gwen Stefani, but she nailed it.
I know I commented before but the Gwen Stefani impression, so spot on. Maya Rudolph is a gem!
I love when Ellen knows exactly what her guest is doing, but she puts on that clueless smile and lets them desperately free-play for more time just to entertain herself and the audience. I love Ellen.
That Gwen Stefani impression was amazing!!!

Rihanna does not sound like that
That girl is talented!
Lmfao! I love Maya Rudolph. Her "Gwen" gave me life. Too spot on!

like Ellen didn’t know what was on the cards.

Maya's laugh actually sounds like a kookaburra.
Go Maya!!! She nailed Gwen Stefani
The first yearbook picture of Ellen looked like Glenn Close
I don't think I'll ever get over how spot on that Gwen Stefani impression was.
At first glance I thought the Rihanna photo was Goldie Hawn. I didn't know how she would make that work
Same! Lol
Me too! I only came to see Maya Rudolph impersonate Goldie Hawn!
Omg her laugh is SOOOO Connie from Big Mouth 😂
I absolutely love Maya Rudolph
I love Maya! Shes hilarious and I wish she was still on SNL :c
I never noticed how much Gwen Stefani sounds like PeeWee Herman lol
Can she please have her own show. MUCH NEEDED!

Maya is talented and beautiful!!
her gwen stefani impression in just a few noises is perhaps the most brilliant impression i ve ever seen..
