Reneé Rapp and Cynthia Erivo Believed in Themselves When No One Else Did

[@Lillyfreitag]

LOVE that they didn't censor reneé and just let her talk like she normally does

[@ismalaz9448]

but was she drunk? or is that her real accent?

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

@@ismalaz9448That’s her real accent, she’s just very chilled and relaxed. Super genuine, she never puts on an act for the camera she’s just always herself

[@KawaiiKandikidPLURR]

[@crazybomb888]

love that even tho cynthia is someone reneé considers her hero & looks up to, she still calls her "bro", "dude" & "baby". she's like talking to her peer and that makes her feel more genuine

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

Reneé truly has to be one of the most genuine celebs out there ❤ which makes her praise all that more significant

[@crazybomb888]

@@2tr6dinquwjos exactly. it feels more raw and heartfelt when it's not packaged in some way. like she said in another interview, she talks the same way no matter who she's talking to and i just love it 🩷

need to know their big three immediately!!!

[@Subsheroe]

@@sabrinarene6909 Renée’s big three is Gemini rising, Capricorn sun and Pisces Moon. The rising/ascendant in Gemini is the way your seen and that big smile she has is def Gemini rising. Cynthia is a Capricorn sun, Taurus moon, can’t find her rising sign. May be why she’s more reserved and serious.

[@lilyscott7983]

Renee is so real for praising Cynthia the way that she does. Can’t count how many times I’ve seen slime tutorials of her I’m Here and I’m still hurting performances

[@sunnybee9453]

not the slime tutorials😂

[@emmzzz_2043]

Both their smiles are just so sweet and magical!!!

[@ReeniEspino]

So many ppl spout the "be yourself" line, especially performers, but these two absolutely walk the walk. Not just talent like woah but drive and grit and little BS tolerance.

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

If anyone is new to Reneé, go watch her on “The Terrell Show” or singing on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” she’s SO insanely talented (and hilarious and down to earth!!!!) I’m jealous of you watching for the first time

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

also in the Hall of Fame of Reneé Rapp videos: - Reneé’s live performance of ‘Snow Angel’ on SNL, absolutely insane !!!!!!! - Reneé performing ‘In the Kitchen’ on Howard Stern - and ‘World Burn’ from Mean Girls Broadway when she was only 19 her talent is out of this world !!!

[@peapawwd31]

Totally agree 🩵

[@annamullin7973]

i’d recommend as well, from the archives, her award-winning performance at the 2018 Jimmy Awards! ❤

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

@ yesssss!! amazing ❤️ and her singing “dancing on my own” as a teen, so insane

This conversation seemed so healing for Renee. love that for her

[@nothinglikemusic3463]

I didn’t expect these two to be interviewing eachother. But I’m so glad that we got this video of these two meeting and talking to one another. These women are so talented in their own right. Renee is literally speaking for so many of us who have been inspired by Cynthia and look up to her. & it’s so wonderful to see the honesty of both of them, and their realest rawest emotions in this interview. It’s so beautiful and sincere and genuine of Cynthia how she was shocked that she’s an inspiration. To us she’s some sort of god of vocal technique, and acting. To us she’s a masterclass. But all she rly ever did was be herself, and use her talents, and she got into a position where she achieved her dream, but a position where she was also able to inspire ppl just by being herself & living out her dream. I got emotional watching this. I look up to both these women, I think they are phenomenal at what they do. And to see them talking abt how they got to where they did, to see them geeking out over each other, to see them in such a human way when I usually think of them as literal goddesses. It’s just so amazing.

[@2tr6dinquwjos]

Can’t wait for Reneé to also finally get all the recognition and accolades she deserves ❤ so so talented and such a cracking personality

[@ryasal]

I am OBSESSED with them!! they’re the perfect match for this interview, I’ll definitely watch this an abnormal amount of times 😁

[@Briana-Mars]

It's crazy how many celebrities and successful people talk about following their intuition, listening to their higher self, and manifestation, even if those aren't the words they use. It's so real. Nothing is a coincidence. You have your passions because it's what you're meant to do. We're limitless beings having a human experience for fun.

[@samara.ariel.jpg_]

feel so deeply everything they meant and said and their determinations. truly how anything can come about, believe in yourself first!!! i feel the same. i just know. there is a different path because of experiences that you and only you can bring to what you want and also deserve because its unique magic only you could serve. you will shine in what you want to do keep going keep manifesting and proving these bishes wrong.

[@dylanimanzi]

Oh, so what I'm picking up from this, is that I'm not batshit crazy for thinking what I think about myself constantly ?! And that I just have to hold onto it and keep moving...? Ok, bet. Thank you Rolling Stone ❤
