Show People with Paul Wontorek Full Interview: Cynthia Erivo of THE COLOR PURPLE

[@SwizzGuy11]

Earned every bit of that TONY! Give her 10 more. She's AMAZING!!!!

[@Athespian128]

Im so lucky I've witnessed her performance as Celie in person

[@chrisroderosvlogsroderos267]

Saw her the night before she won and went Tony Awards day and was COMPLETELY blown away by her 😭

[@christianwritesmusic]

Saw her 2 weeks ago and holy shit she's amazing

[@charissemarcia]

If I could even have an EIGHTH of her vocal ability and physique I would be happy for the rest of my life

[@jimmymcevoy4226]

I just adore her.

[@Max-do1mg]

I went to see The Color Purple right before Jennifer Hudson's last performance fully expecting her to steal the show with her powerhouse voice: then Cynthia sang. AMAZING! I got goosebumps everytime she opened her mouth to sing. Great show, absolutely stellar performances.

[@LemonadeIcedTea01]

I was fortunate enough to see her as Celie back in February and her performance completely and utterly blew me away. I have never been in a theater that's had the sort of reaction from the audience that The Color Purple did (and I've seen Hamilton!). I think both the audience reaction, and the fact that she performs the role with such power and emotion, is a true testament to her talent, and I truly hope she wins a Tony for her performance.

[@Jamie9356]

Agreed (and I've also seen Hamilton)... she was FANTASTIC!

[@Tyler-pt3pc]

Those last 10 seconds is a kid in a candy store ! I love it lol. She deserves everything coming to her, including this Tony.

[@Elizabeth-vc5tz]

When she said Pippin I damn near screamed bc SHE WOULD BE SUCH A PHENOMENAL LEADING PLAYER!!! Pippin was the first show I saw on broadway and Patina Miller killedt that role and so would Cynthia Erivo, just thinking about it makes my heart race

[@martha_s]

Oh my god, she's luminous.

[@jazzsquarerox]

LOOOOVE HER! This interviewer keeps interrupting people though, would've been nice to hear her keep going on her thoughts. But she is brilliant brilliant stunning! And don't even get me started live...when I saw her...OMG.

[@Endurance93]

I've been waiting for this interview for so long

[@footballfan7]

good grief. I could listen to her all day.

[@MrsKiarara94]

She is Splendid.

[@thekermitkid1992]

please come back to london!!

[@steph_pirouette]

OMG I LOVE HER

[@hmariah123]

Love this woman!

[@katelyn2306]

I would LOVE to see her in Corrina Corrina. Such an incredible movie

[@bway_car08]

I wonder if Cynthia met Patina when she did Sister Act?

[@jeffreykare]

I think she'd make a great Sarah in Ragtime.

[@chrisroderosvlogsroderos267]

AGREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@channingsmith454]

I would love it if you did this with Issa Rae!!!!

[@mikeanderson9205]

Her RP accent is lovely

[@sk8phan]

Arm goals. Haha. But really.

[@OsheyBaddest]
