20 Famous Black Child Actors You'd Never Recognize Today!

[@tracyculver9998]

To All the Actors I love your movies and I pray you keep focus and enjoy life

[@takiraneshon]

😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@ShellyBelle1019]

Maestro Harrell did not sing for the original Lion King. That was definitely Jason Weaver…

[@TronClaude]

And he was in "The Wire" (one of his biggest roles)

[@carlaanderson6987]

Yep it was definitely Jason Weaver

[@TronClaude]

@@carlaanderson6987 like most definitely. That info can be found on a simple Google search. How did they miss that??? 🤔

[@OMStudios65]

I was just about to correct that but I see I wasn’t the only one that caught that mistake:)

[@ItsCashComedy]

How the heck Joe Torey make the cut 😂 😂 😂 he wasn't a child

[@OrangeArdmore]

Born in 1965.

[@thablackkat9905]

Right?

[@Randa_T.]

I was just asking that too lol. That was so out of place.

[@kryptism]

😅

[@LaQuetaWorley]

😮😢👋🏾🙋🏾‍♀️❤️‍🩹💔 Yeah why punky Brewster and her cast isn't on here ? This was part of a lot of children's lives too And Joe Torrey shouldn't be here😒😏

[@quentinmitchell4568]

kyla was also on call me kat, fat albert, dr dolittle, the parkers, love and basketball and let's stay together

[@UpliftingJas]

One of the Barney first movie

[@jadegriffin6610]

Plus one on one

[@Butterfly-vy6hz]

Jason Weaver did the Lion King soundtrack as young Simba…

[@HisgGalore]

Thw iconic them song tho 🤷🏿‍♀️ im clueless 😢😅

[@DjSanchezE355AMG]

Facts!!

[@lyrich5213]

I’m confused why they wouldn’t fact check before putting these videos together

[@antonioyoung7219]

BIG FACTS!!!!!!!!

[@socarrier1877]

Yeah Jason said that Lion King money is the gift that keeps on giving

[@SeekingGreetings]

One thing about our Black child actors and actresses is THEY attend school, get their education, and degrees. Not all the boozing and destruction that some child actors endure and succumb to.

[@akinyianderson4075]

Get it right ! Jason Weaver sang the theme song to the Lion King and is still making money from the franchise!

[@MsLissa816]

Maestro did play the role of Simba, in the Chicago stage play Lion King... The maker of the video didn't provide the facts correctly

[@DOUG-E-BEATZ]

Kyla Pratt was my crush as a youngin. Glad to see her still doing her thing ❤

[@WhiskeyNTea]

As a woman. She wasn't my crush but I named my daughter after her!

[@ronsims8581]

You just pissed me off with Sean Nelson! Don’t ever disrespect Big Mike from The Wood. One of the greatest movies ever 👊🏾

[@Kekeluv26]

And “The Corner”

[@ChocolateEarth]

"Child Actors." Why is Joe Torry on here? lol!

[@twinzworld7268]

I was thinking the same thing....Alot was wrong with this video anyway, smdh

[@dharris2981]

I was waiting for someone to point this out!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@iamtinaexeinmyopinion]

You beat me to sayin it 😂

[@OrangeArdmore]

Excellent question. I sped thru most of this nonsense. If I haven't seen you since you were a child actor I knew you aged out of the industry. A lot of times that cuteness doesn't follow you into adulthood. If that was all you were relying on as a child actor the phone will stop ringing. I must've sped right on past Joe Torry. He was never talented as an actor or comedian imo. Just bad overacting in everything he ever starred in. Dude was 25 years in his first film and 26 years old when he was first cast in a television role. I have no idea why he was part of this video.

[@skylarmccloud4080]

Ross's son look just like him. So glad that so many of them chose education.

[@faliciacooper9202]

One of the picks was Ross son

[@machellovelivelife658]

Kyla Pratt birthed her twin!

[@davidrobinson8]

I went to school with Vanessa Baden... Very cool ppls! Proud of her success!! Go Noles!!

[@Busyhandman]

Give him a break you know he ain’t grow up on Gullah Gullah. However it did irk me the way he said especially when the pronounced right the theme song he should know better.

[@sandraclarke3633]

​@Busyhandman This narrator is not a real person, it's AI. That's the reason for the mispronounciation.

[@Busyhandman]

@@sandraclarke3633 it’s still nasty work

[@DancinMike_12]

Noah Gray-Cabey is also on the Hit show “All American”

[@MyName12340]

Alot of inaccuracies and misinformation in the video.

[@maryperry6573]

Don’t just say it Explain it

[@DollyMat]

Exactly ​@@maryperry6573

[@QueenSugar72]

​@@maryperry6573 exactly! Smh

[@naytee4507]

Is quite disturbing when you know that some of these videos are made by people who are not of the culture, but they are getting the views and likes as if they are part of the culture. You know this because they make obvious mistakes and don’t mention more popularevents in the peoples lives. They only know what they know, but they don’t really know.

[@angelaburress8586]

Y’all just make a problem where there is none how miserable do you have to be🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️???!!!

[@maryperry6573]

Idk why that’s a “disturbing problem” for you😅 but you need to focus that energy somewhere else -sincerely a black woman of the culture ❤❤

[@reen4117]
