They sound AMAZING together. Reba is still slaying it , love her

[@chocolateangel8743]

I always wondered what Ms. Reba would sound like singing this kind of music. I'm from the South and used to watch her T.V. show all the time (back-in-the-day). I loved the theme song!

[@RebaMcEntire-ip8vz]

Hello my fan ❤

[@steverdms]

Reba is a national treasure! Love her!

[@maudinerichardson3361]

Yes she is ❤

[@mccormick151428]

She’s the best as just as beautiful as ever

[@rebamcentiremusics1gmailcom]

Thanks I really appreciate your support.. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your kind gesture towards me and am most grateful to have you as my fan❤.

[@JBeezyJesusFreak]

In my mind she's my auntie🤗

[@RebaMcEntire-ip8vz]

Hello my fan ❤

[@kinfolk233]

This performance highlights the common roots between soul and country. It all runs through the South.

[@leonardoreyes485]

Took the words right out my mouth 👆🏻

[@JBeezyJesusFreak]

It does. I grew up on Motown AND Coneay Twitty 😂

[@kathykb8123]

Amen!

[@chocolatebooty81]

These are two beautiful legends you can't go wrong with a mix of country and r&b soul twang

How is Jennifer A legend please explain

[@Freetheguys24]

I love the fact that JHud matched Reba's vocals !!! They are both so legendary!!!

[@Rosannasfriend]

Reba McEntire is a wonderful singer. I love when she does her own version of R&B songs.

[@kurtishall9492]

I lived in Chicago when Jennifer Hudson's mom died. Senseless tragedy. Especially when her mom was going to move to (as the Beverly Hillbillies said) move to California. I feel the love in Jennifer's voice and the respect of Reba of the love of mother and daughter.❤❤❤

[@kurtishall9492]

And for those who said they never sang together, they sang Peggy Lee's cover of "I'm a woman,' with Kristen Chenoweth on her Duets album. It's amazing!!!!!!

[@SassiNicki80]

I love Reba ever since I was a kid. She is so authentic and beautiful ❤️

[@carrie4887]

[@MrGabito88]

The first time i seen your was in your reba show and then i found out she was a singer

[@anitahewitt6048]

They should do a duet. They sound so good together!!!

[@nhguar]

I have the biggest smile on my face just watching these two. Amazing talents! Much respect to Ms Reba. ❤

[@Jhud72]

Ms Reba did not come to play, her outfit was everything.

[@maudinerichardson3361]

She still looks amazing

[@coachtyce4584]

The "Ow" Reba hit at the end SENT ME. Jennifer seeing that Reba got up and getting up, and seeing she didn't walk out, and walking back to her. What a PERFORMER. This was EXCELLENT.

[@katarinaclaes96]

You and Miss Reba did an excellent job singing Respect by Aretha Franklin. 😁👏💖

[@thegodblogger3812]

I'd heard of Reba but my wife brought her music into the house and I've liked her ever since. Loved her sitcom too. Gotta get used to her playing the villain on tv these days.

[@abdieljp]

I have no doubt that Jennifer Hudson is the greatest female vocalist in our country today.

[@Metallicgld12]

I enjoyed this! Made me 😊happy. Reba's voice is polished and full of soul, character and presence. Wow, it's hard to believe she's almost 70.

[@LilliLamour]

Omg, to say I love Reba is an understatement. Such a treasure!!!

[@1drfulfree471]

I Love, Love, Love Reba the Singer and the Actress!!! I have watched every episode of Reba and am still watching the Reruns!!!!!!
