[@Shea3224]

Jennifer Lewis is bringing The Soul back to American Idol that sadly left American Idol WAY TOO SOON!! The Soul that should still be on American Idol, PERIOD!! IYKYK!! 🗣️💯 💜💜

[@crzycolchris]

Yeah same that person in a costume gonna be sweating

[@MrFashionristic]

Absolutely

[@princess_tamia_25]

So happy that these incredible songs are being performed live!! 🎺✨ Jennifer Lewis is a legend. The Princess and the Frog deserves the recognition.

[@glamrockfoxy6667]

I said it was a man in that costume that man gonna be exhausted

[@marym6604]

That high leg kick surprised me I luv luv this lady reminds me of my auntie well done

[@rayvnsamone53]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@petercorzo3407]

So glad she’s okay after the scary moment she had been through. And what she does on stage was SO GOOD. She deserves big praises to the world.

[@ChristopherVargas-gy8vw]

Wait what are you talking about something happened to her?

[@darsenaultt]

??

[@TheRedcat14]

Jenifer Lewis came out all these years later (at 67!) and finally gave us this song live. This. Was. Everything. I was dancing in my living room!

[@Shea3224]

Jennifer Lewis is a LEGEND!! She didn’t just sing, She SUNG!! 💯 I LOVE Her So Much!! Give this Beautiful woman her flowers!! 😍🌹💜💜

[@JennaRiddle]

Jenifer Lewis totally nailed in this performance of "Dig a Little Deeper!" She's a legend in every amazing way! I love Jenifer Lewis so very much! I also love "The Princess and the Frog" as well!

[@tammysmith7345]

Jenifer Lewis killed it on the masked singer! So glad she was on here! I absolutely love her outfit!!

[@glamrockfoxy6667]

That person really hot in that costume

[@wade1593]

The princess and the frog is the only movie that has the princess literally work for her dreams.

[@schnitzel1024]

I’m sorry, Cinderella was putting in that work for years. It paid off and crafted her into the perfect match for the prince. Preparation at the moment of opportunity.

[@feleciajones2923]

Don’t be sorry, that is a bonifide way to look at working for the future.

[@firefirefire3277]

​@@schnitzel1024I beg to disagree. Cinderella just married herself into royalty just to escape from her step family.

[@ianschmitt4991]

I think you mean Tiana is the only Disney princess whose dreams are achieved by more than just marrying someone but yea

[@jaelyndajae2842]

This was LEGENDARY!!! I always thought this song was underrated!! Jennifer Lewis ate that up!!!!!

[@sindiswamncube346]

She is the G.O.A.T , Legend, Queen

[@azyurentertainment1496]

I was straight up crying through this!! I'm so incredibly HAPPY for and PROUD of Ms. Jenifer!!! She's my new inspiration!! Lord knows!!! 🙏🏾🥰🤗😄💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@jessicarechani875]

She’s still got it after all these years! Also, the day Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens at Disney World is the same day as my birthday!

[@glamrockfoxy6667]

That person gonna be sweating in that costume for real

[@glamrockfoxy6667]

It open up the same day as my birthday

[@azyurentertainment1496]

This song has "Don't Nobody Bring Me No Bad News" feels all through it!!! 😆🎉🎉🎉

[@andreiawashington7913]

So happy to see she is healthy and moving around well after her incident in Africa

[@clairemacmillan6374]

What accident

[@andreiawashington7913]

@@clairemacmillan6374Go find the video! My mouth was on the floor! Robin Roberts interviewed her. She fell 10ft from her balcony while on vacation in Africa. I don’t want to spoil it but I will tell you her head was about 3 inches from hitting a boulder when she fell if I recall correctly. It’s a amazing testimony

[@MsDisneylandlover]

Yes ❤

[@KevinETaylor]

SHE IS LIVING HER BEST LIFE X 70! WOW.....PROTECT HER AT ALL COSTS!

[@normanchen6510]

She sure rocked this one! I bet this is for the upcoming attraction 'Tiana's Bayou Adventure' in Orlando and Anaheim coming this year in Orlando and later in Anaheim. At least many will ride this for the 1st time when it's complete!

[@nate6801]

My favorite song...always replay about 6 times when watching the movie

[@ibstayfly]

I love her. I didn't know she could sing

[@doodlepops707]

Most professional actors can sing and dance.

[@muichiro-kun14]

[@janellasmith5734]

I refuse to believe that this wasn’t her favorite role 😂😂😂😂🥰

[@TheMarvelousOne1]

You better sing 🎶 that !!! Ms Jennifer Lewis !!

[@GodsChild4Ever446]

I met Jennifer Lewis in passing that turned into a short yet powerful conversation in New Orleans at an USCA CONFERENCE in 2003 where she was the featured artist and sang song from her one woman show. I am still laughing at the song about Dick Cheney😂. She is so adorable and so pleasant and gives the best hugs. ❤

[@calilady951]

I loved the video where Jenifer Lewis meets the Mama Odie created by the Disney Imagineers. I can't wait until our Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens in California. Disneyland, please make it happen before Halloween!

[@Metrius1989]

Legend and a legendary performance 🎭

[@Unique77783]

I literally just found out tonight that Jennifer Lewis was the voice of Mama Odie after all of these years after seeing a Instagram post 😂 woooow ❤❤❤❤ I literally just listened to this song this weekend as I've always found the song and movie inspirational to find ones self ❤

[@jgreen71991]

[@davonchill2akory224]

Love me some Mama Odie she reminds me of my grandma except my grandma was a Christian not Voodoo Preistess. But thats on my mommas side. But on my Daddys side Im creole and have a bunch of new orleans relatives so I might actually have a Voodoo mama in the family. I love Ms. JENNIFER LEWIS aswell, what a woman.

mama odie ❤️

[@jermaineellerbe6168]

It would have been nice for Jenifer to use the Moms Mabley voice she did in the movie.

[@unjaded2]

THAT WAS AWFUL , COMES A TIME WHEN THESE ONCE GOOD SINGERS NEED TO BE TOLD , PLEASE STOP.

[@JoeParrish-un4gn]

She is a good singer just hate her. Somebody behind a computer screen stopped throwing stones in a hiding hand. You got all that mouth behind behind the computer screen but you’re not gonna say to my face don’t make me report you in and sue you for harassment and bullying I have your information and I will report you don’t play with me. Keep that same energy when I see you, I don’t argue behind computer screens. I throw hands and my hands are going to do the talking. If you really want to go there you’re not about that keep it push pushing
