Diva Plavalaguna The Fifth Element FULL DANCE HD

[@pastichegrizzly4168]

This song was the reason I loved the fifth element as a kid.

[@DocIlpalazzo]

+Pastiche Grizzly That an many other things also. This movie is by far the best. I love it.

[@scragglewaggle4109]

the movie is awesome and she is beautiful and her voice is beautiful

[@operadavis1462]

Pastiche Grizzly : A lot of depth and meaning this movie has in it.

[@TheMoviephr3ak]

This song is why I ripped out my stomach to check for hidden stuff!

[@estherday2239]

Pastiche Grizzly me too.

[@jartist4]

She did a beautiful job conveying the passion and emotion of the singer through her movements! I can totally understand why the actress felt disappointed that the scene didn't go uninterrupted in the film.

[@Kt-cn2rq]

Jason Andrews easy her hubby to be was porking Milla on the side.

[@GpD79]

Jason Andrews - I respect your opinion, but it makes me wonder if you're blind. This was ridiculous in the worst way. It's just awful. Thank goodness for editing!!!

[@clintstechtips6571]

more than 20 years later and this is still amazing

[@operationada]

this woman is a saint for saving this scene and stepping in when this role needed a face. all fifth element fans will be grateful forever!

[@secondghost]

Wow! I've waited 18 years to hear all of this.... I am now complete.

[@lahsmi]

+FlyingShazbot -.- lol

[@cuteesotheric]

+FlyingShazbot I feel you man!!

[@crissal3443]

me to

[@BesttBi]

+FlyingShazbot You and me both. Just... wow.

[@ErikM0985]

+FlyingShazbot *Looks and Bucket List* and... Check.

[@KombatGod]

Fun fact: originally the performer was supposed to only sing the first part, in fact the second part was not even for the Diva Plavalaguna scene and was supposed to just be background music for Leeloo's action scene, but the actress improvised the dance and the whole vocalization; you can see at the end of this video she starts cracking because she wasn't supposed to sing and dance any of that, it was all improvised. Luc Besson liked this so much that he specifically extended the Diva performance and changed the coreography of the Leeloo fight scene so that it overlap with it. Very talented performer!!

[@kampanomad1870]

HAHA they have to freeze their ass' off on the lunar surface instead. With Corbins mother.

[@LovisMirac]

I love this movie, the part of the diva, and this scene... but honestly I think the director knew what he was doing in the editing of this scene: her performance had a mysterious quality and was much more impressive, when you're only catching glimpses of it... and I think he picked the best gestures.

[@0221serendipity]

THIS is soooooo beautiful!!! It's a shame we never got to see the Diva's Full song with dance on the movie screen! Hoping that a special edition 4K DVD would include THIS scene!

[@batoversi893]

Sang by the incredibly talented Inva Mula, an Albanian soprano.

[@adnandsevdari9133]

yes it's very its Albanian soprano number 1in the world

[@alantan3004]

EpiritPirro 5k was like 100k of today?

[@christianscott776]

Alan Tan lol this was 1997 not 1960. 5k would've been like 8k

[@BrightS0l]

I thought it was Evgenia Laguna

[@urb-traymontlegend-p.9168]

The Diva is the very reason why I've watched The 5th Element more times than I can count! She was flawless💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

[@angeloveg90]

My favorite part from the entire movie !!!!!

[@verone3784]

I always loved how with her physical performance to the aria, she predicts her own death that happens minutes later, holding her stomach, then showing the imagined blood in her hands as she sings.

[@sythlorde]

Forget the movie! everyone remembers this, and her dance! LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanx for sharing!

[@garthst.claire3459]

I don't care for the rest of the movie, but the Diva's scene is one of my favourite movie scenes ever.

[@elrui3eonlinechannel]

It is taking my breath away each time I watch it again... Sooo perfect

[@S-Walt3r]

i can die in peace!

[@Wal_89]

we need this side by side with the movie footage! epic!

[@G1manime]

I'm glad they didn't use the full footage in the movie. It would have been too much of her. I noticed some moves that were edited in which I liked in the movie better. I feel like she broke character toward the end. Not sure if she was trying to catch up with the music and vocals or improvising. Even though parts of her performance was cut, I believe they highlighted the best parts and even added a little to make it better. I love how she looked at 3:30. She looked the most like an alien from that angle

[@jonathanwalton4230]

She was wrong, even though she had a small part. We all saw and heard you!! I still cry evetytime i hear this song.

[@beerhoven]

I know she was disappointed, but he really did a great job editing her performance. It made it seem more powerful somehow, because we don't always see her.

[@joc6344]

That song, it's been a while! "towards the end, because a human voice can't change pitches that fast", I thought too. But I juste stumble across the article "Girl Sings The Opera From Fifth Element Considered Humanly Impossible" where they show Victoria Hovhannisyan performing it pretty accurately at The Voice in Russia. (That's what brought me here)

[@Arella17]

I've seen lots of live singers do the song as well. Its freaking scary.

[@joseline18]

Arella17 they never said the whole song can't be sing by a human xD

[@Najstefaniji]

i am in love with this girl. seriously, i can feel it, especially when she gave that interview youve uploaded 10y ago. thank you man. this girl is just good and natural, and beautiful, i hope she's happy and in peace somewhere

[@darya5293]

Actually she's the director of the last Johny Depp movie)

[@MellowJelly]

I just adore how she giggles when she ends it all.

[@dopedreamz]

Masterful... Don't worry miss, your performance as brief as it was provides the musical backdrop for the entire production. You can not think about the 5th element without this song playing in the background...

[@operationada]

YASSSS!!!

[@zzzpqd]

Mai Wei gave a stand out performance that amazes! I have seen her performance 20 times at least and every time I am see struck by what she achieved! Beautiful, exotic and beautiful, I can see she really is that Diva in real life! Stunning!

[@jeremyhernandez1837]

did anyone think at 2:05 she looked confused for a second and had a telepathic vision of what will happen next

[@gwadapeach]

+Jeremy Hernandez that's the way I understood the first time I watched. She felt it, like they have some bound...

[@valariejacobs2866]

lmbo...that was funny

[@ThePepii19]

for me I like to think is that she feels LeLo'a presence and knows who she is... and know what her presence means too...

[@RavenRobin18]

for me, it was that she knew what the song was about and was acting it out. at this point the singer is calling for her lover she thought she heard, she had been abducted and she was telling him that she had escaped his enemies and that she wanted him to rest (take refuge) at the fountain. but in actuality she was is hearing fantom voices and is going crazy....supper sad

[@flowerteen2009]

OMG! This performance was so UNDERRATED!!!...That woman deserves some kind of award and the costume designer as well. Magnificent performance!!!

[@henrikanchelia64]

i've always thought the last part should last longer....

[@alexandermendoza1359]

Un gran trabajo y una gran película 😍 la entiendo totalmente el mundo a veces no valora en su momentos las grandes estrellas fugaces

[@chandraharry5]

Very well performed. Beautiful. Finally I got the chance to see the diva. Performing whole.

[@sandrapanico6357]

Phenomenal performance! I saw this movie many times and this is still one of my favorite scenes. She deserves an Oscar for that routine.

[@dandymcgee]

4:28 - 4:38 is literally the most incredible sound to ever be produced by human vocal chords.

[@MsHojat]

Many parts -namely that one- were edited. In fact I_thought_ I recalled hearing that a few notes were swapped with musical a instrument, but maybe not.

[@remyrico321]

***** When composer Eric Serra showed soprano Inva Mula (who dubs the voice of the Diva) the sheet music for the Diva Dance, she reportedly smiled and relayed to him that some of the notes written were not humanly possible to achieve because the human voice cannot change notes that fast. Hence, she performed the notes in isolation - one by one, as opposed to consecutively singing them all together and they digitized the notes to fit the music. There are a few moments when you can hear the differences in the vocal tones of The Diva's voice.

[@sunriselg]

4:34 was computer-edited, if you listen carefully you can hear the difference.

[@username951100]

You should check out throat singing :)

[@KNJpd]

Judith L Inva mula never computer edited, check out her videos you will be amazed.

[@soraninja]

It was this scene that really blew me away as a child :) I had never seen anything like the Fifth Element before and this scene impressed me the most. The Diva, the opera house, the audiences costumes, everything! If it was 1996 when this was released then I would have been 5 years old. Now I'm 25 and seeing this haha

[@kacake]

Obra maestra performance! She portrayed the Diva universe well. Exquisite otherworldly creation 😲🤯

[@JoseTorres-sl2eq]

This performance never will be reach by anybody. It's more than the song and the artist, is the deep feeling she deposit on this minutes what make unbelievable the presentation, I past all this years believing that more than a half of the sound was sound effects, WOW What a supernatural voice for a human female being. God, is a fantasy on real life. Mula Tchako you are a waking angel voice. Thanks for let us know you exist.

[@JMGShow]

They only edited out at least 25-50% of her performance really. They actually kept all of her characters' parts that were spectacle, animated, and movie worthy for the film. My opinion she had really nothing to be bummed over about it. This scene in the movie was actually one of my favorite parts and am glad I finally have the opportunity to see this now. I study stage, directing, film, acting, singing, and editing. It's a lot of hard work. I'm very glad she got that part. I'm just stunned she's French. I thought she was a black girl to be honest. Then I slowly started to do this research because I was sick and tired of myself assuming and theorizing who was behind the DIVA. I see Hollywood just did what they pulled for the Star Wars franchise. Two different people for one role... and they still nailed it and made a masterpiece.

[@Thestephenmerrill23]

Thank you for posting this. The Fifth Element is more than one of the greatest movies of our time. Like an enigmatic fractal, the Fifth Element's complex but simple weave of darkness and light is timeless.

[@Daniel-qw9ox]

Chère Madame Maywenn, si vous saviez à quel point j'ai été ému de voir et écouter chanter. Vous exprimer parfaitement les émotions de cette chanson. La façon dont vous bougez est très touchant. Sans connaître les mots de cette chanson je ressentais ce qui devait être exprimer par vous... Croyez-moi, si j'avais pû être assis à la place de Bruce Willis, j'aurais versé toutes les larmes de mon corps... pour être couvert ou protégé par votre énergie !! Sincèrement, très belle interprétation de votre part !! Félicitation !!@

[@sylviebasyl2835]

Mais ce n'est pas Maiwenn qui chante.

[@johnnyaingel5753]

Bravo well done one of my favorites

[@Bluntguts_]

This definitely feels other worldly

[@larrypierce2777]

Of all things noticed in the Fifth Element, this character was the most remembered. I thought she was fantastic. Always wondered who played the part. I'm spell bound! Love her performance!

[@RaleighBurke]

One of the greatest performances ever.

[@just_ed4434]

One of my favorites!

[@StewartMcCafferty]

If you song that good why would you feel so blue lol

[@bharatsonowal2495]

nice

[@navinbiotech010]

GOOD

[@trabajarhoradamenteesdehombres]

The melody became more famous than the film and that says everything about the quality of the voice of this great soprano.

[@NinaloveGod]

Diva is so graceful lovely and feminine 💙🩵

[@golivisuresh6390]

I saw this movie when I was 17 years old. I still can't forget this song

[@Vovanov18]

Maiwenn absolutely aced this role and performance. Every moment of this is magic.

[@kimrob8133]

By far one of the the best movie song performances yet

[@fishbonkers]

The person who played the diva is a very attractive woman

[@sarahjanereeve]

Thanks for putting this up. The Diva scenes are brilliant, not just for the Diva of course, but for Bruce Willis who stares in wonder, while still looking great! I guess that's called great acting without words, or something!

[@AbbyMore]

Probably the best scene from 5th Element!

[@BraveFox100]

❤ fantastic job as an actress and a fantastic job of her dressers and decorators! ❤

[@jefft6975]

Ahh so there are some part edited. I quite amazed with this song. Even the hand movement she's perfect fot this diva role. No other can

[@gulliverf]

I just love it! It creates the desire in me to hear more of this creative mix of opera and electronica. Such a wonderful, soul reaching, high vibrational and uplifting/emotional cocktail. There is clearly a market for this fusion, and a new musical genre was born!!!

[@exiletheexile163]

its the best. i can see why he might have felt the need to cut it that way, he didn't want to push her too hard. but not including the unedited opera was a miss in terms of creating depth to the lore around the movie world's mystic traditions matching the real world's club scene at the time and those holy vignettes that you try to hold on to. a strange scene as he left her for Mila and there she is holding this place of transition in the film from hope to mystic certainty.

[@alexeilesukovvolkovich1114]

What an exceptional performance in its entirety, without the visual distraction of silly fight scenes. Thank You for posting this video c'est magnifique!!! Regards all the way from St . Petersburg, Russia.

[@Azrael-e3b]

This is by far the best interpretation of Gaetano Donizetti Lucia di Lammermoor

[@valariejacobs2866]

Yes! This is what I've been looking for! That was a great dance move she had done and the song! The song is beautiful. She has a beautiful voice. I as a vocalist think that it would be nice if the human voice could change that quickly and stay on key.

[@TheOnlyKevster]

Maiwenn, I'm sorry my dear but you are up for elimination. The time has come for you to lip sync for your life...

[@vladimirbmp]

TheOnlyKevster Oh god, I almost choked laughing. ♥

[@gumiho8352]

AND DON'T FUCK IT UP.

[@GabrielEduardo]

[@divanaklaoyts]

Literally a master piece ım obsessed

[@markiss5353]

she is amazing.. her song is one of my favorite parts of the movie.. even in the makeup you could see her beauty.. now to see the real person i am even more amazed..

[@chinoledesma3476]

beautiful and awkward dance!!! genius!

[@mousehouse3591]

Still love the Diva, just finished watching my dvd for about the 30th time, my favourite go to movie for in the background when I am sewing, but I always stop and watch the Diva. You brought a very unusual character to life.

[@sofimartinez1082]

La mejor ópera de todos los tiempos, una genia todo

[@kjy8519]

I remember even now, how much I had been shocked 20 years ago (when I was 12-year-old kid). Of course, it's very impressive again and again as when I met this scene 20 years ago..! Thanks!!

[@reganludlow1048]

I always felt that little side-step segment of her routine was awkward in the movie! They should have kept in this amazing choreography in!

[@davidguevara8867]

Who's still listening to this in 2017? I was 6 when this film was released and that was my favorite scene in the whole film, it's so magical it's almost like The Diva can speak to our souls!

[@MisNebel]

David Guevara I'm watching the movie again right now actually. I was 17 when it came out...still one of my favorite movies of all time

[@Onafee1849]

I just can't get over it how GOOD and PERFECT her voice is!! Especially the parts where she switches the tones so quickly! like around 4:30! can't get over it and can't get enough! I've never heard something like this..never saw a singer like her before!

[@BozoDel]

just so you know it, this recording isn't totally real, the hard parts are made with a computer. But there's a girl named Laura who does it for real, search it on youtube

[@Onafee1849]

yeah, I found it out as well..but although it's pretty impressive!

[@Onafee1849]

Daniel Piovezan and yes, I know this cover by Laura- it's amazing!

[@tomski787]

Onafee1849 Seen "little girl with amazing voice" on youtube? For an 11-year-old, it's pretty good...

[@losangele420]

read the description.

[@truefairplay5826]

An interesting coincidence that in this movie Albanian and Slavic cultures "come together". The Diva song is sung by Albanian soprano Inva Mula, while her name "Palvalaguna" is literally a translation of "Blue Lagoon" into Slavic languages, and the main role is played by Mila Jovovich, a person of Slavic descent. Hollywood as a Peacemaker...just kiddin'..it's "Money talks, b....walks" ;)

[@thekalib121]

I freaking love that dance she does!!

[@judginaharrigan5770]

It was angelic to me all the times I heard and saw this magnificent clip from the movie. People saw enough of you that it didn't matter if they shortened it. Your interpretation along with the beautiful vocals will be etched in those that saw and heard this. Head up...your were perfect.

[@meganforest519]

This was beautiful!! 😍😍 I get this!! This song is so impossible to sing perfectly, that no mere "human" can sing it! She's from another world therefore she has the ability to execute it most gracefully! How extraordinary! 💖💖💕

[@lionsandmoon]

Maiwenn's concerns about lost elements are unfounded, imo. Besson's edits fully preserved the core choreographic and artistic intents behind this song, while simultaneously inserting elements that would keep a jaded audience from becoming impatient with the length. Maiwenn's artistry is fully present in the final cut that we see in the movie.

[@CreepPatterson]

An pasado los años y aun no dejo de ver esta magnífica voz es impresionante ❤❤

[@yearke]

Glad I finally got to see this full rendition! She does a wonderful job synching to the vocal and purveying emotion.

[@markcousins9337]

Brilliant. Should have been shown in its entirity in the film. The fight scene doesn't really add to plot.

[@MidnightSt]

it actually does, i think. not the story part of the plot, but the emotional part. it was the important breakpoint that has shown Lilu is vulnerable, whatever kind of "supreme being" she might be, and however cool she can fight. Without it, the rest of the movie would make no sense.

[@TheGuardianmercury]

The first part of this track, sung by the soprano Inva Mula, is called "Il dolce suono" and begins at 0:20, while the second part, "The Diva Dance" starts at 3:31 and is made of an special arrangement of diferent tones of voice of this singer by computer. Very well edited, thank you.

[@ANaturalAllure]

I remember being disappointed when they cut away from her as a child to go to the fight scene. I was mesmerized by her!

[@RowdyPumper]

Definitely worth preserving. Thank you.

[@PonchoSaGo]

I love the move she does at 3:50...

[@ellesmerewildwood4858]

I bought the soundtrack cd years ago just for this piece. Both parts are magnificent and this is the first time I've seen it whole. Thanks for the upload.

[@adrianaperea4407]

Mai Wenn should know that her act was the must beautiful fron the hole movie..may be for her that after the hole preparation the scene was too short but it was of great impact and the message was sent...

[@Sailo-11]

Inva Mula Tchako never heard her name before. I'd saw The Fifth Element movie when I was very young but I cannot forget this amazing opera singing sceen till today, I looked it up in the internet and see this amazing footage, and further more knows a lot more about the singer, Inva Mula Tchako an Albianian. Hats of to her, she is amazing, brilliant voice control

[@OfentseMwaseFilms]

Wow thank you for sharing this! This scene was just perfect

[@lthammox]

Lets just say that the editor did s fantastic job on this. Left in the best bits.

[@corone2018]

Very memorable scene best voice off all movies 🍿 👏 bravo

[@ryuu.hakugin]

The actress didn't sing it, it was an albanian opera singer that sing this song 😁

[@NomadOracle]

Thank you for this! Awesome beautifuly done performance.

[@tubechic71]

One of my all time favorite movies.

[@iActuallyLiveinUtah]

This song is one of the reasons why The fifth Element was so great.

[@victoriac.8137]

this actress is actually the director's ex girlfriend

[@ohheeyyytheree9026]

ex wife

[@vegeta9621]

And shes not an actress. The girl that was supposed to performdidnt show up and he begged hee to do it. Still terrible and the reason for it not being shown on the movie.

[@davmic2231]

Sorry, but Maïwenn (Le Besco) est bien une actrice avec environ 20 films à son actif (is still an actress, last movie in 2015) et une réalisatrice moins productive. Elle n'a réalisé que 5 films reconnus ("Polisse", only known in France I suppose - 5 movies as director). She was Luc Besson girl's friend during the making off "the fifth element". The real opera singer didn't want to play the Diva for the movie. Maïwenn accepted to play the Diva as an experience ; she was just in doubt for the playback and the choregraphy.

[@Sockboss1]

i bet

[@Sockboss1]

some wife more like gf

[@kelley7438]

Writer without words - it was so beautiful!

[@ryans413]

It’s by far my fav part of the film
