Well done, all! Claire’s voice has lost the “little kid sound” and is maturing, and getting better and stronger all the time. .

[@kchasehenson57]

I see that too. Excited to see but sad too. She is definitely a star. 💜

[@bryttanigore]

@@911falseflagdonebybushrums3 she is still young and will grow to be an even better singer it is not an easy path. It is her choice alone to continue or not. To me it was beautiful.

[@katrinarehm9042]

@9/11, you do realize that she has pitch perfect voice? That is what a real voice sounds like, not the synthesize crap the artist now a days do. If you think you can sing better, upload a video

Kaila Dang I FRIKIN KNOW RIGHT!!!!

[@DajanaDarling]

It's always hard to believe she's not part of the Disney empire, but the film is great nonetheless.

[@vixiestarfire]

Dajana Darling she technically is now actually! Since Disney owns Fox now, and Anastasia is on Disney+ too! So like Leah in Star Wars you could say she is an adopted Disney princess :) haha

[@cf1179]

I totally agree

Claire is one of those wonder children. Perfect laugh, perfect voice, perfect everything, except there is always one flaw. Her flaw is being too freaking adorable and innocent for the real world.

[@robertj6175]

Unicorn Minion Chicken Nugget I pray so hard that the world doesn’t ruin her I hope your parents take really good care to not let that happen

[@yeetthetacoo4068]

Claire has a wonderful voice. Honestly, I'm not sure how people sing like this! And recently I listened to Anastasia for the first time and Claire does such an amazing job of covering it she got all the emotions and notes right, it's amazing! P.S. I like ur pfp

[@mellowyellow5865]

The problem with wonder children is they end up getting a lot of expectations for themselves, and it can be really a let down when they don’t meet them. It can cause really toxic mindsets too. Honestly I would hate being put all over social media just because I had good pitch and a decent voice. I just hope Claire gets to enjoy all the perks of being a normal kid, and never has to feel pressures of fame or any expectations. She really deserves to have a well rounded and good life.

[@melododie]

she's also incredibly intelligent for her age too

Keep supporting your cousin, maybe one day she/he will be something.

[@adondriel]

Imagine being 7 and having all this... Takes a lot of talent and training to get a 7 year old to stand still, let alone sing for a music video. Lol. Not to mention her voice is pretty damn good.

[@MistyeyedNStarrified]

Not every kid needs to be "trained" to stand still.

[@olgakononova6972]

Unless she used to be a singer in her last life and has plans to be a singer this time and loves it. So no need to make her.

[@alexisa.7149]

No need to train her she loves this and practically ask to do these things! She isn’t forced or trained this her natural self. She loves to sing and will try and take any spot light. She’s very smart. Very talented.

@@annakk Actually it can have a huge impact because of the development and maturity a voice has. At a young age, voice control is a lot harder. Not making fun and I totally agree with effort you get results , but I am just an informant. :3 have a great day

KippyMusic Maybe but when you’ve been getting singing lessons since you were 3, probably before that, voice control is much easier compared to someone who hasn’t had any singing lessons.
