Singing For 40,000 People ♥ Follow Me, Fantine

[@emk2474]

I’ve never smiled so much and the little “see you all in hell” at the end has legit had my night and the “ I did a little plié” ❤️😂

[@lisa_vxng]

*plié

[@LizzieDeanMakes]

If it were me it would have been “I did a little pee - ey?” 😂🤣😂🤣

[@phoebes161]

I saw you perform in Hyde Park and went to the evening show of Les Mis with my grandma and I have to say you were spectacular ❤

[@merlinHPtwilight]

Jealous! That sounds like an amazing day! :)

[@phoebes161]

@@merlinHPtwilight It really was. It was my 18th and my grandma's 80th birthday present.

[@OlanKenny]

Yknow what? You're doing what you love surrounded by awesome people and it's so CLEAR you are in your element. Obviously you will have days with imposter syndrome and feeling rubbish, but these videos of pure positivity are just wonderful to see. I wish you and anyone reading this a lifetime of moments like this, where you do the things you enjoy with excellent people

[@FirstmateRouge]

I was hoping you would vlog this day so happy to see this video! And congrats on playing Fantine through july 2020!

[@loganh6086]

FirstmateRouge lol this didn’t age well

[@whatdoyousuppose]

What an amazing day to look back on! Also I had no clue you had formed a band with Celinde, Ben, and Ramin - talk about talent all around, wow!! Wishing you well, and congrats on staying on with Les Mis at the Sondheim!! 👏👏👏 sending all my love, be kind to yourself ❤️

[@liwald1744]

Seeing you walking on to the stage in front of thousands of people send shivers down my spine. How amazing for you to have these types of moments. Congratulations

[@hannahowen93]

I was in the crowd at Hyde Park, 5 rows from the front and I literally cried during your performances. You were spectacular and seeing you sing was a lifelong dream. Thank you for your spectacular voice and love for the arts 😘🙂 x

[@anika2238]

I shouted with excitement when you said you will be in Le Mis again!!! I read the unabridged of the book and have NEVER seen any play, movie or listened to any soundtracks. I moved to england 3 years ago and have waited for my opportunity to go see it in the West End as my first experience outside the book. I was so sad you were no longer in Le Mis by the time I moved here. I'd resigned myself to the fact that i wouldn't get to see you act in my very first Le Mis viewing but now I am absolutely ecstatic! I CANNOT WAIT!!! :)

[@Allons-yMoose]

I love this but gosh, I'm getting stressed out just watching this. How were you still alive after that day? 😳

[@rememberlaurien]

Best way to end the day, watching a new video from you and sipping on a cup of tea 💕

[@XandraLeigh]

Multiple points to this comment. “No pressure, no diamonds” resonated with me so much. My life has been so stressful between work and family/friend insane drama and trying to get everything together in my life. I am in awe over how far you have come in life since I started watching you. I’m 25 and sometimes feel very lost and unable to make anything in my life. Watching your videos and seeing how much you do and handle and the attitude you present to problems really inspires me and helps me remember that life doesn’t run me, I run my life. You’re an incredible creator of things and I am thankful that you share your life with us Carrie.

[@jayayay4271]

I may or may not have had a little cry at that clip of Carrie walking out on to the stage as Fantine in front of those thousands of people. The performance was stunning but to see it from that side... I cant imagine what that's like.

[@layla12348]

Carrie you are like my virtual big sister and I just have to say seeing your career grow and you growing in life makes me so proud to be one of your watchers. Thank you for sharing all of this over the last few years from your childhood room to your first les mis run to now singing in front of so many people and being an amazing author and unapologetically and authentically yourself. You’re the brightest star in a constellation.

[@darkangelw8472]

Awe, and congrats to Fantine. Ponine, does indeed knows her way around ;) (Eponine's errands, for everyone else)

[@sophiesmall1202]

So excited you're staying on for the reopening!!! And I can't believe how gorgeously you and Shan sang the I Dreamed a Dream/On My Own arrangement in the park - I'm a little bit obsessed still. Also, I wanted to say thank you - hearing you talk openly about the anxiety you feel on big, overwhelming days helps me to feel I can cope and achieve things, whatever the meddlums try telling me. Love you. xxx

[@theannaliviams]

Could you and Oliver ever (potentially) play Anastasia and Dimitri? I mean, do you think are you the right fit for the roles? Because that would be amazing!!

[@Ravenprimrose]

I could see Oliver as Dimitri but I can’t see Carrie as Anastasia I can see part of her playing it. But the role is so.... I mean she could if Anastasia came to London. But the roles so childish and the roles Carrie plays are so grown up. I could and I can’t that’s the thing😃

[@jesscurtis4337]

your dress is stunning i love how all four of your outfits are so different yet almost so alike i can kinda see the correlation within the outfits and each compass direction that you all represent so cleverrrrr

[@missnugget2009]

Genuinely had a little tear in my eye because I’m just so proud of you! Never met you but just from watching you do covers in your bedroom to right now...amazing!!

[@bookishlifetime2801]

I really needed that pep talk that you gave yourself in the beginning. I am so stressed about this weekend (I am organising a weekend-long camp for 50 students) and I just needed to trust that it will be worth it. Diamonds are made under pressure 💕 Thank you Carrie 💕

[@courtneypaige4109]

Your channel is currently my new obsession and im binge watching xxxx

[@JustineDuhart]

Thank you for sharing such a special day. It was great to see snippets of it! And well done for holding in the nervous pee, I couldn’t do it 😂

[@beckemmen9702]

I love the videos you upload and my mum was watching over my shoulder and said she got goosebumps seeing you in front of that crowd! Amazinggggg x

[@SabrinaOlivera]

Can I just say I love that! No pressure. No diamonds. Love it❤️

[@emilyrowe8322]

I remember watching you in you bedroom rave about Les Mis, so this vlog made my heart bubble a little bit. You’ve come sooo far!!!

[@popstrieslife9850]

I love you so much, your such an inspiration and I really want to do what you do when I’m older xx

Carrie, I've watched your videos for years. I am so proud of you. Living your best life and loving it. Congrats!

[@livholness2593]

Hi Carrie, just got home from seeing you in Les Mis tonight. You and the whole cast were INCREDIBLE. Completely moved. Thank you xxx

[@kate2189]

Loved seeing a little clip of Rob Houchen at the end there, he's got a phenomenal voice! X

[@FoxyBlocks]

I needed a nervous wee after seeing all those people! So proud of you Carrie!

[@kiramarks3932]

Ben and Carrie together makes me very happy ☺️

[@HelloItsAK]

I’m so jealous of your incredible life, but at the same time, I get so motivated to get where you are. You are amazing

[@haticecetin9231]

You looked amazing and you were spectacular at hyde park!!! Can’t wait to see you in Les mis the stage performance!!!:)

[@nadjafreier5757]

Been crying happy tears throughout the vlog. You're amazing and you can be soooo proud of yourself!

[@basicqlycarter]

Congrats on getting in the actual Les Mis! I’m so proud of you!! 😄

[@fredthehorse]

i got such profound chills at that little clip of "shallow". that sounded truly beautiful god i'm jealous of y'all who can make sounds like that come out of your faces.

[@emilym5870]

thank you for vlogging this day Carrie it was absolutely beautiful xx Also that last clip had me in stitches!

[@MeganLensink]

those last few seconds omg that’s all i’m gonna be thinking about next time i’m there hahaha

[@katyknott6726]

your videos are so wholesome and heartwarming i feel a little flutter in my heart

This almost made me cry with pride. you are wonder woman Carrie x

[@storiesofblue]

Carrie, seeing you live your dream is making me tear up. I am so happy for you

[@rebeccamarples1298]

My dad was on vacation in London and just so happened to be a couple blocks away from Hyde Park and heard you guys singing. Lucky him. Love you fro the US❤️

[@meandendo]

Thank you for the music, the songs your singing!! You are a breathe of fresh air xoxo

[@cveal7225]

Did anyone else get super emotional watching Carrie walk out onto stage to all those people? Like, our girl did that. Wow! Beyond proud of her.

[@Davieslisajo]

That just made me really emotional! I was out there in that sea of people and you were fantastic!

[@MJ_Penny_MT]

5:25. This lil speech is so sweet. I want all of this tattooed on me!!

[@aletheaaa]

So thrilled it's looking like I'll be able to see you in Les Mis!!! In 2015 when I saw you as Eponine and next year I'll be able to see you as Fantine, it's serendipitous! Feeling pretty happy about when I've planned my trip to the UK! Love from Canada!

[@henrietterowland7280]

I'm sitting here grinning from ear to ear with shear joy in my hart for you, you are amazing and I hope I will get to see you perform one day. I feel like a proud mother as I have been following you and your channel for about 4 years now. And yes I am old enough to be your mother. I hope you don't feel creeped out by this, I have only good hopes and wishes for you and am just fan girling, a silly thing for a woman of my age to be doing, but just so happy for you. Sending lots of love from an Australian Fan.👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺

[@ameliamorgan2287]

This took me back to my weekend at the Proms as a singer in 2017. It was at the hall, so more of a choral concert but it's such a warming and welcoming environment like no other I've performed at.

[@princessJayNay22]

That claping routine at the end was AMAZING!!! you aren't the only one who deals with nervous pees! I admit I deal with them too! Especially before having surgery.

[@alicem8081]

I'm so late watching this vlog, but oh my god I'm almost crying with how much happens in it! I mean, McFly sitting in the kitchen downstairs at the start, you getting to perform in Hyde Park TWICE and the announcement that you're getting to play Fantine when the Sondheim opens is just too much for one weekend! I don't know how you did it! Cannot wait to see the live cinema broadcast of Les Mis on the 2nd of December! 💜💜

[@lucyhannah8667]

I feel honoured for my auntie and I to have made a cameo in this vlog haha! Thanks for an amazing show Carrie! X

[@Deancolby]

All in a days work! I will never complain about my hectic day ever -:) Doing what you love to do -such a blessing (and hard work) Well done!

[@suzanneparkes8259]

I know that that must have been quite stressful but you also looked like you were having so much fun 😍 you clearly love what you do 😊

[@rosieevans5726]

Wow that’s one hardcore day!! Listened to you on the radio for both performances and you were amazing!! Xx

[@nikkirharvey]

Wow, what a day!! I am in total awe of how you pulled that off, you’re a superstar!

[@loz_nz]

I'm visiting London (from New Zealand) in December. As soon as I knew you were going to be in the reopening of Les Mis I knew I had to go!! I've got tickets for the matinee on my very last day. I'll be going straight from the theatre to Heathrow for a 16 hour flight. Totally worth it

[@MissTwilightHater]

8.00 made me quite emotional... look how far you've come!

[@jjamieallover]

omg the shot of you walking on as fantine in front of the sea of people made me so emotional

[@samraymond4464]

OMG IM SEEING U TOMORROW, I CANNOT WAIT!!!!

[@amybradshaw1066]

Fan.....bloody....tastic! Great Vid Carrie! X

[@Mia-mh1oi]

what an amazing day carrie - you should feel so extrodinarily proud of yourself!!!! for this day & of course all of your achievements, i could only dream to achieve as much as you at such a young age xxxx

[@kirstysmith5187]

I saw you in the matinee this day and you were so wonderful with such a calming and serene presence on stage...never would have known how crazy a day you had ahead of you! True professionals. Everyone in the cast is amazing and the entire concert was a magical experience😆❤

[@lauren-ve7ef]

Ohhhh this is just gorgeous 💕

[@anjjurrd]

the crazy life of carrie should be a new series thing. i cannot believe how you did That! you must have superpowers, i'm in awe.

So glad and grateful I got to witness this amazing Cardinals and Les Mis performance!!!!!

[@eleanoradie6896]

Ahhh I met you on Friday! You were amazing and sooo lovely. You made my day ❤️ sorry for being such a mess though

[@bgeorgiam]

absolutely crushing it you queeeeen 🥰🥰

[@trootmgroo4440]

i had such a proud mum moment seeing you walk up on stage, literally started crying

[@leas6447]

I adore this last clip 🤣 Thank you for taking my mind off of thing for 10 minutes, I’m writing a major test in uni tomorrow and feeling quite anxious about it. But your videos never fail to make me feel better 🌻

[@aloffreda77]

These kind of videos make me wanna watch Les Mis every single day. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😍😍

[@maeveb2792]

Queeeeennnn 💕💕💕

[@XxLilxMissxStargrlxX]

So, lucky me, I managed to snag a ticket to see McFly at the O2 which I have been ECSTATIC about because this has been my dream for the last 12 years. On top of that, my boyfriend, who is going with me, surprised me this past weekend with tickets to see YOU in Les Mis for the next day after the O2 concert. Anyways, I'm so happy you'll be playing Fantine for longer. I remember watching your original cover of "On My Own," and I can't believe the amount of growth and success you've achieved! xxx

[@undyne9461]

Hope your having a great month carrie! UwU

[@LucyBishop]

Ahhh Carrie you were amazing! I was there, working backstage doing social media for Rock Choir, and unfortunately I only got to see you guys on the screens, as I was working hard, but you sounded amazing such a gorgeous les miz arrangement & the Star is born number gave me all the goosebumps! I’m a huge huge fan of yours so was hoping to catch you, but when I saw you arrive on the bikes I knew how crazy busy you were with a two (3!) show day! Anyway, I just wanted to say you absolutely smashed it. I saw your concert at Cadogan Hall last year, the night when Tom turned up and played the Tangled song with you...he actually used my photograph of you both on his social media! 😍👍🏻😘 Id love to come and see you as Fantine, I saw you as Eponine many moons ago, my first ever time at Les Miz (I’ve now been 5 times!!) will have to try and make it a 6th! Lucy xxxx

[@isabelahart9377]

Gosh the strength that would take going on that stage is insane!

[@Marja1992]

Carrie, you're an actual badass! So proud of you :D - from a long time viewer

[@jestem.mrowka.bigbitowka5238]

Damn.. when you walked on that stage in HP i almost cried.. like... i dont even know you, but i'm so proud. I really wish you all the best Carrie ❤

[@jc37371]

Saw you on the Saturday matinee and you were amazing!!! Cant wait to see you at the Sondheim! X

[@TheWannaBeAthleteIzzy]

CARRIEEEE!!!! WE NEED A NEW WONDER WOMAN EPISODE!!!!

[@kirstin9381]

I wish I could see you as fantine, she’s by far my dream role 😩❤️

[@creativereindeer]

aha yes limobikes! I used to work in TV and hadn't come across them before but they are THE BUSINESS for plopping talent on the back and getting them reliably somewhere pronto! 40k people is actually insane - whats more insane is that more than that crowd of people have - and regularly - watch your videos. Now THAT is nuts. I had so much nostalgia watching this as I originally found you when Ramin tweeted about your gig with him waaaaaaay back in the day, the first time! Great to see y'all together and boshing it. YES. :D

[@Grumpy_C]

I’m convinced you’re making your way through every female character in Les Miserable! I’m hoping to see you play Fantine, can’t wait!!

[@ourlittleways3451]

Proud of you Carrie

[@sharon4091]

I saw uou in Les Mis this day it was amazing...thank you. So funny to see what your doing while were watching the performance.x

[@svizerana]

I was so excited and scared for you watching you walking out to that crowd. that takes guts!

[@lucysp15]

That Cardinal's dress is GORGEOUS, where did you get it from? Also are you guys going to release original music or just do covers? (both are fine, I just really need to know where to listen to them ^^)

[@corrieisme]

Absolutely love the black lace dress Carrie wore on stage, does anyone know where it’s from? X

[@jusmarch3740]

5 minutes at a time...I need to start implementing that in my own life 💖

[@k1tkat-kate]

What a crazy day, Carrie! Also congrats on continuing your Les Mis journey! Anyone know if there's a way to listen to the concert after the fact???? I'm not from the UK and I'd love to hear The Cardinals perform.

[@lydia3111]
