All she did is sing a song that was written for her by a white guy

[@user-nr9gx7ss5x]

I know that casual rasism is bad, but her case is better than Aurora's. I mean, that one spent most of the movie asleep!

[@gingerisevil02]

And brother bear too. Lots of movies will turn the characters into animals if it's a POC.

[@snooopyland]

Who is the pianist? He's funny.

[@lelliephant]

Richard Lin Benjamin Rauhala, the one who uploaded the video.

[@JulianneHannes]

But she does have a point, Tiana shouldn't have been a frog too and not for 70% of the movie

[@JulianneHannes]

***** And they better have another and another in the future and with various personalities and attributes. Tiana better not be the only African American Disney princess, the first but not the only

[@4dultw1thj0b]

Honestly they really ought to make Aida into an animated movie. That way we get not just one but two new African Disney Princesses!

[@corsariocapitao]

Julianne Hannes Mulan was a man for 90% of the movie...

[@literallyfiguratively5658]

Julianne Hannes yeah but it's not like her race was erased and she was an animal 90% of the time. There was actual controversy over Tiana being the first black princess and some parents were even boycotting the movie because they couldn't stand the thought of a black princess. Mulan was based on a true story and you can't compare her being a man (which the audience was aware of the whole time and it was still obvious she was a girl) to Tiana being a frog.

[@JulianneHannes]

Luisa True but she was the first Disney princess to kick ass and take charge

[@chaysethepurplewolf2060]

"Then I spent half the movie sweeping the floor... and the other half as a frog." I honestly was filled with utter shock at this line, can't believe that she actually called the movie out like that, but man I'm DAMN glad she did! Definitely does take some strength and confidence to say a line like that without any hint of hesitation.

[@faith4disney]

He gives this line to everyone who sings this song lol

[@EpicFandomVogue]

She actually SOUNDS like Tiana!!! ❤️

[@rat5800]

Akure Phénix bruh. She voice-acted tiana.

[@jeeslu12345]

Well holy fuckballs! She is Tiana! I'm with everybody below. If ever Princess and the Frog becomes a Broadway musical, Adrienne needs to be Tiana!

[@steffismile14]

well she is kinda right but lets be fair Tiana is probably the most hardworking disney princess and she didn't aks for a man to come and make her dream come true she worked her ass off for it and she was happy doing it and was still able to smile and didn't give up ..she's my favorite princess and thst actress has an amazing voice wich i really like

I don't have time for dates That's just gunna have to wait a while Aint got time for messing around And it's not my style This old town can slow it down People taking the easy way But I know exactly where I'm going I'm getting closer and closer everyday! And I'm almost there...! I'm almost there People down here think I'm crazy But I don't care! Trials and tribulations I've had my share But there ain't nothing gunna stop me now Cuz I'm almost there! I remember daddy told me Fairy tales can come true But you gotta make them happen It all depends on you! So I worked real hard each and everyday Now things for sure are going my way Just doing what I do Look out boys I'm coming through! And I'm almost there...! I'm almost there People gonna come here from everywhere And I'm almost there...! I'm almost there There's been trials and tribulations I know I've had my share But I've climbed a mountain I've crossed a river And I'm almost there I'm almost there I'm al-most- there...!
