Nine-year-old Angelica De La Cruz of the Philippines is seriously channeling Jennifer Holliday in her performance of “And I Am Telling you” from Dreamgirls for a Home Cable singing competition.
It is absolutely unreal, but not quite as cute as SIX-YEAR-OLD Amy singing the same song after the jump.
Wow! Now I want to see a three-year-old do it! These other girls are so over the hill. I don’t want to watch an old, washed-up nine-year-old when I could be watching a toddler convey the most complicated of adult emotions.
BONUS: Watch talented nine-year-old Angelica sing “Listen,” the new song written for Beyonce in the Dreamgirls movie.

wow, Angel’s was amazing-really powerful
Try to listen to CHARICE PEMPENGCO. She’s one of Youtube’s singing sensation. Absolutely Fantastic!
And Angelica’s rendition was nice too btw.
Oh, God, Derek.
Learn some culture that’s from more than just your teeny-bopper years.

Actually Derek he is right… Jennifer Holiday sang the song first in the stage version of Dreamgirls…If you haven’t heard Holidays version you should give it a listen because as good as Hudson was Holiday’s version blows hers out of the water…
um, derek u twat, u think he’d make that kinda mistake? go & do urself a favour: wiki jennifer holliday and/or dreamgirls, the broadway musical. n go bury urself somewhere. thx
Derek- Jenifer Holliday was in the Broadway cast. The original Effie. While J Hud did a great job on the song. No one tops the original!
To Derek: He said and meant Jennifer Holiday. She was the original character on broadway in the 80’s, and you can tell from the way the girl sings the song, that she had a Jennifer HOLIDAY recording. Sry,I just had to say.
Derek said: Im sorry but I have to say, in your description you say Jennifer Holliday, but its Jennifer HUDSON who did the song from dreamgirls
Darling, there were amazing things in the world of music and theatre before the year 2000. I’d suggest you do a bit a research before shooting from the hip…
In this case, google “1982 Tony Award for Best Lead Actress in a Musical”, and “1983 Grammy Best Female Performance, R & B”
Im sorry but I have to say, in your description you say Jennifer Holliday, but its Jennifer HUDSON who did the song from dreamgirls
This is sick. These Children have no idea the meaning of a song beyond mary had a little lamb and their freak parents are forcing them into these competitions and making them sing these adult songs. It’s gross. Let kids be kids and sing like kids.
ANGELICA DELA CRUZ WAS ONLY SEVEN YR OLD WHEN SHE SANG LISTEN BY BEYONCE IN THAT BULILIT SINGING CONTEST
