About BEAUTIFUL -- THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL:
Long before she was Carole King, chart-topping music legend, she was Carol Klein, Brooklyn girl with passion and chutzpah. She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and, by the time she reached her twenties, had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock 'n' roll. But it wasn't until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice.
BEAUTIFUL tells the inspiring true story of King's remarkable rise to stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she made more than BEAUTIFUL music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation.

[@puppysa7102]

Melissa’s reaction is me if I ever met Melissa in real life tbh 😂😂😂

[@josedavila]

Yes yes PLZ

[@prescillavasquez7755]

Nah I think I would like start legit sobbing. 😂

[@user-rh2st7fv1d]

x2

[@myth332]

I SMELLLLL CAPPPPPP

[@remysato793]

Yep sounds accurate

[@jwest3511]

Why isn't she more famous? I've asked dozens of people if they know who Melissa Benoist is and they say, "no". She is a talent equal to any known stars.

[@drmayeda1930]

She has one show that was a hit but she came in at the end. Hopefully, Supergirl will get a long run at least 7 years.

[@anthonybaratta968]

Agree she was great in Whiplash & should be getting more work 💯!!! She seems really happy with playing Kara for now but I can’t wait to see her career take off in a big way... possibly even win an academy award

[@vincentcushnahan5292]

Why have I never seen her on Chat shows in THE UNITED KINGDOM

[@bobsquaretriangle3896]

And she is genuinely one of the sweetest people in the world as well.

[@madmax7201]

She definitely should be. Not for just fame. I have my fingers crossed she lands more roles in more big hits yet and truly feels happy and fulfilled with her work. I know I would be happy to see more of her 🥰

[@mscoolgirl798]

God, I didn't think I could love Melissa anymore than I already did. SHE'S SO ADORABLE 💕

[@mrlevittown]

mscoolgirl798 She's ridiculously adorable!! Too adorable for words. 😍

[@josedavila]

Yeah so great person. And it shows don't hide she is super SUPER get it 😜😜😜😊😊jajajaja

[@vincentcushnahan5292]

She is totally ADORABLE

[@madmax7201]

Ikr. I feel the same way. Whatever she is made of it's like not from Earth. It's Impossible how delightful she can be, I'm like GUHHH! Definitely extraterrestrial magic of some sorts.

[@KaraLuthorZorEl]

0:18 "I can't believe this" 0:26 "Oh my godness" 0:30 "oohh my god"! 0:39 "moooom"! 0:40 "oh may did you see it all"? Carole: "yes" 0:42 "ohhh my god" Carol shows Melissa how many people clap and probably tells her she deserves it.. 0:50 "no its you!!" Carole 0:51 "So worth it"

[@jackiefortis_]

Shes the actual cutest. Melissa in this entire video is my everything

[@richs3tube]

Melissa is a complete delight in every possible way. Not to mention just ridiculously talented.

[@jackiefortis_]

richs3tube EXACTLY

[@lmnopotay7433]

I can't believe it, my two girlfriend's on tha same stage. Carole and Melissa 😀😀

[@dwaynecox2002]

I love how she just straight up loses it. Melissa has no chill and that makes the surprise so perfect. You can see her go “MOM” at the audience at 0:39. Edit, thank you for all the likes!!!

[@ScottyColoradoKid]

Dwayne; I Know!! So fun!! What a sweetheart she is

[@carlwaring]

Would love to know what she said to Carol and what the reply was immediately after that :)

[@MagicTimeTravel]

@@carlwaring I think it's "Did you see the show?!" "Yeah!" "OH MY GOD"

[@ik1768]

Yeah🤣🤣🤣❤

[@anniepainter1212]

That was definitely the best surprise ever, Melissa must be so happy to meet THE Carol King

[@NEPatriot]

Carole King is one of Melissa's music idols.

[@NF41197]

I want to see her mom's reaction. It's great when she looks into the audience and says "MOM" in the middle of her shock. I wonder if her mom was in on this or if it was a total coincidence that she was there this particular night. Must have been awesome for her mom to see her daughter have this moment on stage with Carole King.

[@ellenw391]

Did you hear Melissa tell the story that the first album her Mom bought was Tapestry?! (Something I can SO relate to. I NEVER post anything that gives my age away, but the first album I ever bought was Tapestry too!!). So I'm sure this was amazingly special to her Mom on many levels. I'm sure it will be something that thrills them both for a long time!

[@ioana6827]

Her mom was actually there and her husband,Chris,was there crying

[@allenadesoto7069]

The “MOM!” at :39 has me smiling so hard. I’m so proud and happy for her, the joy on her face is so evident and she’s so deserving of this. So proud of her!!

[@NEPatriot]

If ever there was a moment to describe as wholesome...that seemed to be it.

[@ameliasaad2269]

Melissa’s reaction is priceless❤️

[@Shinnen79]

Melissa totally fangurled all over Carole! lol

[@AS-hc9zl]

SO AMAZING!!!! Melissa is so shook, I'm so happy for her for living her dreams!!!! And Carole is such a legend! I'm glad she could make it and not miss out on Melissa's performance!!!!

[@ScottyColoradoKid]

Gee ya think this might be a highlight in this young ladys' life? Melissa is from my hometown of Littleton, Colo...I'm still here...we were really proud when she scored Supergirl on TV, but being a musician, I am much more excited for her on this!! Yep, I wondered if anybody else caught her yelling "MOM!" ....Look! (and Caroles' bass player is also from Denver; she has a place in Boulder) but we all are so in love and proud of our Melissa!! (and Amy Adams is from 10 minutes south of Littleton, Castle Rock!!)

[@notmysecret9]

I'm crying just watching this, I can't imagine what Melissa must have felt!! Incredible!

[@LeenaSregneva]

Melissa mouthing 'mom' to her mom is the cutest thing ever

[@donaldmcauliffe7653]

Note Carole king gives 30 percent of the play to st jude hospital every year she never told anyone but many people know god bless her

[@hafsaxvi4027]

Melissa staight up looked like she was gonna pass out or throw up 😂 She's so adorable. A Great joy to be around I'm sure , beautiful, great actress a beautiful singer overall the best human being❤️

[@jwest3511]

I saw the play before this, was choked up by Melissa's performance. So glad she got to meet Carole... and what a better way.

[@supergirlkaramel4607]

Melissa's reaction is the best ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@julialovescimorelli5594]

This is sooo cute!! Btw did anyone else noticed she yelled “MOM” down the stage in 0:40

[@roberttheron4697]

Melissa's reaction was one of shock, appreciation, and admiration that Carole showed up to watch her perform, but to get a chance to have the opportunity to sing with the legend herself must have been an amazing experience for not only her but the rest of the cast as well.

[@nashua16]

Her reaction, isn't her reaction the most beautiful? Melissa is like a jewel.

[@amandagalley7764]

We were lucky enough to be there that night. This Melissa is amazing! That was a big surprise for us all for Carole king to show up on stage!

[@paolasolis2929]

Wow, you were so so lucky

[@nicolechung1649]

U were there????

[@martinslade777]

I was looking for a comment from someone that was there. Must have been awesome when Carol entered

[@jwest3511]

Just watch Melissa's reaction through this. She is fantastic, and she deserves the accolades from Carole. I saw the play, wish I could have been at this performance.

[@adeleolmastroni1545]

her reaction is the cutest 😍😍 and when she screams "MOM" at the public I lost it 😂😂😂❤️

[@EdInABook]

Melissa's reaction to seeing Carole King is so amazing!

[@foreveryours9081]

I’m so happy for her💕

[@ninagonzales3030]

Melissa Benoist is awesome! You are my hero! 💖💗😘

[@yasminjane143]

Melissa is such a sweetheart she is so adorable, she is talented gorgeous human being I love her so much 😊😊😊😊

[@emh6957]

Everyone’s commenting about Mellisa and I love her but can I just say... Kara is jumping up and down in the background and I just love her so much

[@vincentcushnahan5292]

Totally agree with your comment about KARA SHE IS

[@sharkyfernandez3294]

This was amazing to watch. Melissa's reaction and her calling out to her mum was the sweetest thing. Such a real person and a sweetheart. Good for her..

[@possummay]

I flew to NY t see this. I didn't see Carole King, but I realised just how talented Melissa Bemoist is. When she does another boardwalk I'll be there.

[@ratipandit1319]

Melissa is such a cute geek!

[@JaeymeAubreyAndrada]

This is seriously the best thing ever ♥ I'm so proud of Mel and really happy for her. :)

[@flyboy152]

Melissa fangirling to Carole is a lot like Carole fangirling when Aretha Franklin came out to sing "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman" at her Kennedy Center Honors ceremony.

[@annchirppieribbon8204]

Carole King has a lot of energy and vitality. I like her great music.

[@toomuchtv5768]

Just saw this today, Dec 1, 2022. My mom and dad would play this tapestry album until I was sick as a little girl. But I would give anything to be that SICK again. I am black, African American, and I wanted to hear Michael Jackson but i am SO HAPPY that i was introduced to different styles of music. I LOVE THIS!!!! YOU GO CAROLE KING!!!!!!!

[@tamiresmoreiradasilva1864]

I love melissa benoist...❤❤

[@victorsixtythree]

Love this! (Question: had they met before?)

[@richs3tube]

No.

[@shelbyguizar9036]

thinking about Barbie awestruck telling that old woman at the bus stop that she’s beautiful and her going, “I know that”

[@steelers6titles]

Laura is gone, Joni is ailing, but Carole is going strong. Nice to see an artist enjoy her own work so much, along with others.

[@talia3280]

Just when I thought I couldn't like Melissa more ... 😃

[@raquelmelo6951]

Meu cadê a beleza da Melissa o tempo está acabando para ele cara lá na supergirl elas é linda mais com a beleza da Melissa acabou

[@scottleung9587]

Supergirl just got a super surprise!

[@leonwatson4679]

Did Melissa just do this or did she do another somewhere else? Cause the one I have watched online cause I couldn't watch live didn't have carole King in it

[@elizabethfalgout]

Will Melissa be in the “beautiful” preformance that’s coming to the Denver center?

[@prit8730]

Elizabeth Falgout no... only in nyc

[@Yoursummertimefriend]

no I don't think so because she already have started shooting supergril

[@danielperrino3949]

melissa is really supergirl !!!! Like carol king!!!! Both are supergirls !!!!!

[@qwahaxahn]

A true blue Supergirl.

[@steelers6titles]

These were hugely expensive at the time. There was little, if any, color programming in 1954 (the Tournament of Roses parade?) Color videotape was several years in the future. Bonanza, the first color TV series, debuted in 1959 on NBC (owned by RCA). My guess is that these were bought by affluent engineers, et. al., in the TV industry as an investment for the future.
