June 1, 2024
Palace Theatre

[@bwaygal4905]

Her vocals in The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes Blew. My. MIND. She is phenomenal. Oh yeah, Ben Platt is no slouch either!

[@movieshowdown5705]

Honestly - her vocals MADE the movie !

[@amandayoung8368]

the way she looks at him while he’s singing ugh so beautiful

[@chrisjenkins203]

And so FAKE!

[@ianlee4565]

Hearing Ben list off her accomplishments at her age is wild. Hearing her sing more than justifies it. I SO hope that I can get tickets for R+J while I’m going to NY this fall!!!

[@whatwhatwhatttttt]

she's been the lead/main love interest of all her films so far (WSS, TBOSAS, Shazam) and now the lead in her broadway debut her trajectory is actually insane

[@jillianjuliet]

i just love watching this girl live her dreams and being able to tell in every new milestone she is pinching herself. so so so well deserved

[@nadinepeels]

3:41 Rachel's "TO MEEEE" is such a great subtle belt

[@emiliaalvarezchaves4273]

Ugh! Right!

[@jacobmccain8794]

I've been following Rachel's career since she started in KZbin and knew that voice would take her wherever she wants to go! Just look at her killing it as an actress and vocalists!

[@davidshepard-alenko4232]

this girl is a star. undeniable talent and beauty.

[@mirandasarmiento]

only rachel could have an early broadway debut!! she’s such a star ⭐️

[@lucavandewalle2647]

@VJ-no9ug She just meant that her Broadway debut was going to be with Romeo and Julliet, but now it's before that in this show

[@bbcbbc1717]

She is amazing.

[@mirandasarmiento]

@VJ-no9ug she doing romeo + juliet this fall and that would (technically) be her bway debut

[@irisnomo]

@destructiondecaydesirealso sophia anne caruso but commentor prolly just means well with praising rachel

[@michelerobinjusko]

Ben Platt and Rachel Zegler have such incredible voices! Stunning duet!

[@ebonypegasus9864]

Well that was an amazing experience.... what a privilege to be able to hear that, especially with all the horrible hate going viral about Rachel right now. thank you so much for uploading her in a much more positive light. They both transported me to a higher place where people matter to each other.

[@kennedywestsideshark]

She won my heart in WSS movie when she belted "Oh no, Anita no".

Lyrics I could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes They've seen things that you never quite say, but I hear Come out of hiding, I'm right here beside you And I'll stay there as long as you let me Because you matter to me Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody You matter to me I promise you do, you, you matter too I promise you do, you see? You matter to me It's addictive the minute you let yourself think The things that I say just might matter to someone All of this time I've been keeping my mind on the running away And for the first time I think I'd consider the stay Because you matter to me Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody You matter to me I promise you do, you, you matter too I promise you do, you see? You matter to me And you matter to me Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody You matter to me I promise you do, you (Out of hiding I'm right here beside you) You matter too (As long as you have me) I promise you do, you, you matter too (Out of hiding I'm right here beside you) I promise you do, you, you matter too (I do, I promise you do, you matter to me) I promise you do, you see You matter to me

[@religionmusic1]

At this point I just want her album and a massive future to her!

[@redbunnytail9528]

I never seen professional level sing on stage. Everybody know of people, who 'say' they coulda been singer, though. And. When I think about it, 'Diva' and 'people think they this raw talent' have something in common. They spam the 'volume.' You know? And. Zegler sing and it hit many people 'sweet spot,' cuz she no sing too loud, make her point as express, sing the song. Platt, too. I was under impression Broadway, 'spam' the voice. This pretty cool. This the first time I seen Zegler do ANYthing. And. She not disappoint. This proof, she not a head case, like people say.

[@cherrynbo]

oh my god 3:34 was just so utterly gorgeous i melted

[@allyson--]

Hell yeah

[@maelyswega3045]

Thank you😌

[@Asmrqueen999]

Oh my goshhhhh goldddd

[@NadiaMichelle]

I can hear a bit of Celine Dion on this. But the must important thing is that Rachel has her own voice. I adore her.

[@Jirachiluva101]

She brought her full Lucy Grey accent to this one

[@PauTay942]

WOW

[@caiofreitas7682]

essa calça ta muito linda nele TT-TT

[@anrina]

I still remember Rachel going small-time viral in the Bway community for singing Les Mis during Broadway Flea with Chris McCarrell when she was 14(?) and thinking, damn, I need to see this girl in a Broadway musical. Color me surprised to see her pop up on the big screen years later everywhere. Can you be proud of someone you don't know? LOL. I'm still waiting to see her in a Broadway musical though... Not really interested in Romeo & Juliet. Anyways, you go girl!

[@Kendaroo]

Did they record this for me? My two fav singers

[@yayshowvids6427]

See that’s why I went that exact night and filmed this to put on YT 😂

Seeing someone (succesfully) struggle to sing this song reminds me what an incredible singer Sara Bareilles actually is. She makes it seems so effortlessly

yeah... sorry. I'll never get past her Snow White woke bullsh*t interviews. She's the very heart of what has gone wrong in Hollywood.

[@yayshowvids6427]

@@James-re6cothe only reason y’all even know about the Snow White interview is some other manbaby with an inferiority complex and a platform told y’all to be upset about it, and like the histrionic sheep you are, you did as commanded. For context for regular people who don’t go looking for ‘woke’ boogeymen as a personality, Rachel Zegler did an interview where she spoke on her version of Snow White not simply waiting around for some prince to rescue her - which some wildly insecure men are very up in arms about because their incel overlords told them to be. Meanwhile Rachel stays crushing it and y’all stay bothered, so is all this manufactured outrage even worth your effort? It comes off like curmudgeons shaking their fists at the clouds, but do you I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@yayshowvids6427 it is so typical for people like you to say stuff like this 🤣 and so typical for the other side of the extreme to be the way they are.. nowadays, I understand Plato's cave in a way I never knew I would when I was a beady eyed hopeful kid

[@sherzodanvarov5174]

Bro, are freaking crazy or what? I can prove that you think wrong, but hate someone bc she's playing Snow White and allegedly said bad things about her, I think that is stupid reason to hate someone. She said bad things about Snow White, what is wrong with that, has the earth stopped spinning or what? I don't know you old man or woman, but you are crazy if you really hate her for that!!!
