La'Porsha Renae - Diamond (HD)

[@carlosmoore8555]

Im here 5 years later to say this is one of the most memorable performances of Idol History!

[@dodomamed73]

This woman rocks! Impossible vocals....the best I ever heardef

[@muhindimucu5523]

This was all sorts of great

[@hiram357abiff]

Her and Adam Lambert were vocal assassins.

[@chrislyons6649]

I stg just unbelievable absolutely love her till this day

[@coachkeem3466]

Still Watching in 2022!! She made an IMPACT!!

[@wasongabeatrice]

Why is nobody talking about the eyes she is giving while murdering and tearing this song out.....daaaaaang

[@hiltonyoung3066]

YES!!! Those eyes!!!! Captivating!!!!! Hypnotizing!!!

[@CuirPhotodotNet]

I just think her eyes were perfect....that little bit of stagecraft.....

[@diaviangunner6554]

Yoooo honestly thought it was just me tbh❤❤❤. This girl is just so seductive with her voice... Then those damn eyes

[@lynnboog4231]

Euphoric 😩😤

[@pillowtalkwithtoni-marie5998]

Absolutely!!!!

[@itsrashard]

She sung this song like this wasn't even a competition. She sung it as if she was performing at her own damn concert. And her range Is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

[@VABreezy]

That she did! She had such poise, and commanded the audience like it was her show!

[@Zarumaans]

If she lacks anything, it's range 🤔

[@cantrellrobinson4841]

Jonas Jonsson HATER!!

[@Zarumaans]

@@cantrellrobinson4841 If someone said that Obama was the President of India, and you replied that he's not, then you're a HATER! Simply pointing out the fact that La Porsha doesn't have a wide vocal range (facts) makes me a hater? Please have several seats old lady 💁‍♂️

[@cantrellrobinson4841]

Jonas Jonsson wow really obama? first off that analogy made no sense and really had absolutely nothing to do with the situation at hand lol and yes HATER like why you can’t just be like it’s good y’all be trolling for flaws and replies smh and apparently she didn’t need all that range with the response them judges and that audience gave her so...🤷🏾‍♂️

[@lonebluewolfpublishing]

Every so often, I must listen to LaPorsha’s version of “Diamonds”. Phenomenal.

[@domoniquesanzeni6126]

Me too

[@tiannathegreat9647]

Me three!

[@nanalassovargas9501]

March of 2024 and I still can’t get enough of her voice.

[@Osbelkis]

Same

[@ninaneal30]

I could literally cry

[@breantaria]

when she said "you and I" at 1:11 I almost fell out....this is pure excellence

[@SippinwithYams]

Fr lol

[@ckay4469]

The chills I get from it every time is crazy!!!

[@Chezzgirl69]

Yass girl. I had to listen to it again & A-GAIN it’s that good! “ you and I -I....”👌

[@fuzellberger1146]

[@brusiqueirah5721]

[@allthingsmireille]

Those eyes... that voice.., just chills.

[@unknowntoall]

Mireille Kiala RIGHT?!

[@wandaword2568]

Ikr. I wanted to be that diamond with her being happy. At first sight...almost believed that type of connection was possible. Mmm 💎.

[@corneliuswashington-gp1we]

....when she does the things she does with her eyes....it's so cinematic....

[@ChiTwnLink]

I know a lot of times people say that the original cannot be beaten but I mean seriously this is one of those exceptions I think this version is a million times better

[@vickiefleming602]

Facts

[@Anwaryeow]

Not that they got beaten or what.. its their difference of identity and style.. obv majority will pick la porsha because she got a good singing voicee..

[@sandraestevez5151]

ChiTwn Juggalo ST8 FACTS !!!

[@wandaword2568]

She should remake this song, like Whitney did with Dolly.

[@blambrax]

@@wandaword2568 she can remake it a thousand times, she will never be a Rihanna, will never put it where Rihanna put it, it was number 1 in several countries.

[@williamskelton325]

I dunno what was better, Laporsha's singing or Kellys reaction to her singing.....amazing

[@ThinkingLikeAVIRTUOUSWoman]

2020 and still can’t get enough of her beautiful voice 🥰

[@latricet1873]

I thought about her yesterday and it came up on my youtube feed. I forgot her name, but I remember her singing this song..💕💕💕

[@jonnelosorio4597]

[@ckay4469]

Same! I still get the same chills as I did the first time I heard it

[@leanfort5250]

yep yep! and also have to come back for some Joshua Ledet version of James Brown - It's A Man's Man's World really. and you realized that they're both runner ups and both of their cover performances were some of THE best there ever was on live television! well i mean you really can't have everything right?

[@HeliusRa]

for those who loved her performances... SHE HAS A KZbin PAGE!! and she puts records of some of her performances, i know you would love to hear them ;) and if u want, u can help promoting her a bit, by sharing her videos on other social network ;) its a good way, since the media doesnt seem to be helping her... she and we deserve to hear her

[@joemoore5312]

[@charissabrooks1345]

She has a beautiful voice and a lot of control. Omg

[@akevadurrett9075]

Ikr

[@zkyvn_6371]

Evan Seago How does that make since ,when some people have to teach their voice to do runs....I do understand what your saying, some runs are bad, some take control, I think hers are a little of both

[@unknowntoall]

This still is - and always will be - my absolute FAVORITE live performance on A.I. of all time. Frankly, it is my favorite live performance PERIOD - not just on A.I. - but of any place - of all time. I never get tired of watching & listening to it! Laportia Renee you are a beautiful woman with a beautiful gift of a voice - it is truly something to behold! God has definitely blessed you girl!!!!

[@tiannathegreat9647]

I agree 100%.She was and is Magic.

[@karenbrown9226]

she killed it I love her voice she should've won

[@midnyteblues]

I know right! She got screwed over. She definitely owned that entire season. One of the best singers to ever be on the show.

[@thedon0171]

[@thedon0171]

Wait when Hillary wins Donald slump pervertic ass going broke and also he going to jail i bet you a video coming and melania slumbucket better divorce his ass golddiging bitch and thats my final dont reply to my shit bitch

[@midnyteblues]

Haha Donald Trump supporter, don't worry about Melissa Meally, can't take much stock from someone that likes Nicki Minaj. Lol. From her comments I can guess that she also likes hip hop and rap but it's okay for those people to bash women, glamorise crime, and bump and grind in videos, and that's not perverted? Lol. Give me a break.

[@thedon0171]

You mean twerk movement please get a life by the i listen to all genres of music except rock and country so get your facts straight when you're talking to me babeee and I am a black beautiful woman did you see the video of Trump downgrading women and what if a man happens to have a daughter would you like this old ass touching her private parts oh okay facts+ information= my answer

[@GalactiKez]

3 years later and my entire body still gets chills and I’m still so annoyed she didn’t win. She deserved it. The producers should’ve just ended it here after this performance and signed her to everything. Such an extraordinarily gorgeous gift. My ears can’t get enough edit: 2022, still love this so much

[@joseeriichard]

I still get chills every time I watch this

[@frieda842]

Oh my!! God gave you his rarest carat diamond like He did Whitney! LaPorsha God's blessings and favor are upon you and your lovely daughter!!! ♡♡♡

[@onenirvana1]

Thank God for youtube. I come back often just to watch La Porsha Renae. Her gift is so outstanding. I love what Kelly Clarkson says. I have never come back to watch any Idol performer until she took the stage. She is the winner to me. Blessed.

[@Keeng_Aman_Duh]

The spell she cast pulled me in and I was mesmerized!!!!!!

[@rahayes68]

The single greatest performance in this generation... shaken every time I play this.

[@tanyaallen3564]

I am completely blown away by this phenomenal Queen each and every time I listen to her... This is my favorite song... I dedicated it to one of my best friends that passed away a few days ago. The pureness of her voice and vocal range cannot be denied, I'm feeling so much love and truth in this song... come thru Queen, the door has been kicked off of the hinges by the sheer magic of your gift... you are amazing 😍

2023 and I'm here for my yearly listening of this legendary performance

[@kurdisezzy1494]

Her voice has so much personality and it's extremely beautiful. She definitely deserves every artist to praise her.

[@louissmoot]

😂😂😂 every time I open my mouth all I would say is THANK YOU!! So vocally blessed ✊✊

[@noulanboushe]

she reminds me of jasmine Sullivan. they wasn't ready for her voice on this show. Omg but when she says "ONE right away" THE RASPINESS!! OHHH BOYYY I LIVE

[@brownbeauty39]

Her voice is so distinctive and beautiful 🌟💎🌟💕

[@haydenhobbs357]

[@XTheFireDemonX]

She sings with attitude. so powerful

[@KenH-pm2lh]

I can't ever listen to another rendition of this song. I get chills every time and I listen to it at least 5 times back to back. You're amazing LaPorsha

[@aka_izzy]

Still one of the best performances in television history. The show fell in my eyes after the terrible finale from her season.

[@jeanbcook]

I couldn’t agree more

[@conr.3624]

My thoughts exactly. Devastating

[@ApexPredator429]

Almost a year later and still salty she didn't win.

[@KMims747]

Jacob East #metoo. Like a bag of lays potato chips. Years later.

[@melissawatkins6159]

a year later after a year later...and im still salty too lol

[@debrahollinger7167]

Jacob East more than a year for me! She’s so blessed! Thank you Kelly Why don’t you both do a song together?

[@angalenetaylor9173]

Me too! She should have won the first night she sang. All her performances were so perfect. She was the only reason I watched American Idol. I fell in love with her. Because she was just an awesome singer. She could take the old kid's song Row Your Boat. And sing it and make it a hit! Beautiful! And amazing.

[@rogueacademic]

she was a homophobe who got what she deserved

[@bloodboughtsaint3189]

I still come back to this video from time to time. Love it.

[@kingtristo9738]

Still here in 2019 and it’s still like the first time hearing it all over again

[@paulmalloySrSyekenDa1]

Totally agree mad that she didn't win and haven't heard any music from her yet this performance was fire 🔥🔥🔥

[@christinan6450]

Wow!!!!! This woman’s voice is kissed by the most high. She has staggering control, pitch perfect, just beautiful to listen to. What an awesome talent.

[@tshegofatsophatlha8890]

The low vibrato she sings at 0:24 on the phrase "diamonds in the sky" sounds like some Goddess from a golden throne in Egypt that came to slay and gaaaaard did she serve us

[@AndySaenz]

That was just a beautiful, sexy, mesmerizing performance from La'Porsha! WOW

[@angelaw933]

I always wondered if the other contestants were feeling like..damn...we gonna lose to Laporsha lol

[@ibrahimmohammed3599]

I didnt wonder i knew they probably hated her.

[@4theLoveOfMuzikk]

Angela W lol!! right!

[@meldan9025]

Angela W they wanted to hate her but she's just that good

[@risanaomi4958]

What are you people saying? All the other contestants LOVED her. She was in her own league, and everyone knew it.

[@GCNMMA]

Almost everyone in the top 10 wanted her to win lol. She was loved

[@62Marmar]

This is the best version of diamonds hands down to this day !

[@gidgethrobowski3860]

Amazing, what a voice.... She took that song, made it her own, and unapologetically did it better than Rihanna.

[@blambrax]

Gidget Nope!!!

[@blambrax]

@Jude Fernandes Rihanna doesn't have to learn anything from her. I think she has alot to learn from Rihanna."Rihanna Created A $600 Million Fortune-And Became The World’s Richest Female Musician"

[@jesusduarte2410]

While we were yet sinner, Christ died for us kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKHVdZ-pZ9OVZ5Y educate yourself Rihanna sings better

[@skylarwhitmore8860]

Sia is the creator, Rihanna is the original, and La’Porsha is the reinventer

[@nanakwabenatv6014]

I agree way better than Riri 😅😅

[@_LisaRee]

Exactly! She sang this like she wrote it, produced it and experienced it. Absolutely Amazing.

[@hortenserolle9535]

Wow! Wow! Wow! Every part of her sang!!!! Spirit! Soul! And body! Amazing vocals!!!!!

[@BNelly901]

The way that guitar haunts her voice at 1:12 mark...JEEEZZ gives me goosebumps. The cadence of the drums...just raw!!! #beautiful It's a shame she didn't win!!!

[@latonyamsummers1]

[@rossanaglasgow2561]

Kelly Clarkson said to La Porsha "you gonna win", she knows class when she hears it, but of course America voters did not agree They gave her 2nd, but that has not stopped her, she is unstoppable with her new hits. Go girl continue to share your voice with the world

[@benjaminmokotjo1661]

[@jordanlomax8446]

I am still amazed by this and it’s 2019, I refuse to let this women’s voice be forgotten 😫

[@kathylyndsey316]

She captured the essence of sensuality in the words of this song in a way I'd never noticed before (even though I've listened and sung along to this song many times).

[@brandonnelson290]

She absolutely shattered this song! Rihanna can't sing this anymore, lol. Omfg!! One of thee BEST performances, I've, EVER SEEN/HEARD! WTF!! I was acting like Kelly and Jen.. Wow!!

[@michealmanson3423]

Saw this live and had the same reaction as Kelly. Holy Smokes! Still the best live American Idol performance ever!
