[@pau8154]

I can't imagine how painful it was for her to maintain Rosa's voice

[@jer9grant]

Oh, she talked a bit about that with her vocal coach on his podcast, Backstage Pass with Eric Vetro.

[@alexrose9507]

I know right!

[@Lissetete]

@@jer9grant do you happen to have the link??

[@floortjetwisk3499]

I noticed that her voice got lower through the seasons. really funny to see :)

[@joefreeman3087]

I literally just learned it wasn't her real voice, and I'm watching this to hear it.

[@TJ-xr2go]

Its like Rosa mocking us all through the entire video by showing her bubbly personality😭😂

[@azulaazula5901]

THATS SO PERFECT LMAOOOO

[@jem8483]

It’s awesome she can fake her voice for the whole video! ToT

[@nayeonflwrz6327]

OMG YES

[@Lissetete]

FR YO!

[@Lost_Cohort.13]

That's what i was thinking lmao im just waiting for her to get serious and say something Rosa like😂😂

[@Wiley_Coyote]

Her real voice will never NOT slightly freak me out. 😄

[@Strookers]

Same. Everytime I hear it, it weirds me out 😂

[@PrettyGirlGiGi]

I'm literally mind blown lmaoo

[@jaderamos3598]

@@PrettyGirlGiGi same!

[@Sleeepehead]

Absolutely yes

[@pamelaibarra790]

Lol watching Brooklyn nine-nine over the years, i was shocked when found out she was mirabel. She did amazing, but Rosa will forever be her real voice to me 😂

[@deepalisingh8937]

she deserves an award for portraying Rosa

[@ggt47]

Not really.😂

[@SouL-ob5wx]

No she deserves an award for acting like gina in this interview

[@laestrella9727]

Agreed

[@abdullahalshehri1793]

Plot twist She is repeating what Gina is telling her through hidden earpiece

[@masmodiba]

😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭 I LOVE THIS COMMENT SO MUCH

[@fineaswine5863]

Her hair is covering the ear piece. She even did her REAL voice for a while

[@susioeandno1else]

🤣🤣🤣

[@machin8593]

That would explain the top hat and handlebar moustache story

[@nayeonflwrz6327]

PLS

[@middleeastbeast81]

Jesus Christ, if this is her real voice/personality I just gained a whole lotta respect for her Brooklyn 99 performance

[@machin8593]

It is her real voice!!! Can you imagine her Rosa voice is the fake one?? It's mind-blowing how good of an actress she is

[@GamingLovesJohn]

Like Krysten Ritter as JJ.

[@AA-qb7ni]

When I hear her talk I think she's putting on a voice and she isn't 😂😂 She's amazing as Rosa.

[@gwenb8759]

That one time Rosa said "excuse me officer" when she was on disguise

[@dothmotherknowyouwearth]

God, I loved her as Rosa in B99. Can’t wait to see her in Encanto.

[@brianboru8858]

Mother doth not know I weareth her drapes, and perhaps she never shall.

[@kushalchakraborty8322]

I am afraid you cannot see her in Encanto. She has her voice in the film.

[@dothmotherknowyouwearth]

@@kushalchakraborty8322 mmh-hmm, yeah, that’s what I meant lmao

[@marssbarr0]

I LOVE YOUR USERNAME LMAO

[@yashada_]

i just realised she's in encanto after finding out the songs are written by lin-manuel miranda. this is a pleasant surprise to say the least :D she has such a good voice too like woahhh

[@angwoo82]

I thought that her B99 voice was her actual voice in real life lol. I love actors who have this superpower along with actors who can hide their British, Irish & Australian accents and do different American accents is so cool to me too.

[@robertfraser485]

1:24 It might not be "wild and crazy" but if ever I would recognize her on the street I would start singing: "Rosa...Rosa Rosa...ROOOOOO--sa...."

[@luhv_ems4818]

YES LEMME JOINNNNNNNNNNNNN

[@mackenziemc]

OMG her voice! It’s so odd hearing her outside of her role as Rosa

[@Othellovonryan]

Steph is an amazing actor, and I’m glad that she played a character that was bi- and I believe she I also openly bi herself. If I would meet her, totally couldn’t talk because I would be so nervous lmao. We love you Stephanie!

[@anikasarah]

stephanie is such a good actress ahd i absolutely adore her energy!! im so excited to watch encanto and i cant wait to see her in so many more things

[@happychaosofthenorth]

Stephanie Beatriz is my celebrity crush. I adore her. She's gorgeous, seems so sweet and fun and she's so, so talented! She was amazing as Rosa and I love her in Encanto and In the Heights. I can't wait to see where her career takes her next!!

[@rodaxel7165]

" Rosa, Rosa, Rosa" Doug Judy.

[@iradenny912]

😂😂😂 That annoying song

[@arturocastroverde3349]

JUDYYYY

[@jwanie366]

2:47 I don't think any of them could've foreseen Brooklyn Nine-Nine lasting as long as it did. Stephanie was so good on that show and I'm looking forward to seeing what she does next!

[@Tessachantelli]

She looks like if Aubrey Plaza and kourtney kardashian had a baby😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@smolivesmolive2798]

She's literally older than Aubrey Plaza

[@betweentheripples8847]

@@smolivesmolive2798 That literally has no bearing on her comment. Hugs 🤗

[@azaria7528]

When she described the cast of bb9 I realized how all of them put their passion and personality into their characters cuz she described their characters personality

[@sanaaz2395]

Still so not used to her hearing her real voice after years of Rosa Diaz omg 😂

[@RookE2011]

Rewatching B99 I never realized she used her team voice in S1 but also I hate that I still get thrown off by her actual voice - icon

[@allisonpoynor4457]

It’s really freaking hilarious how everyone in the comments is talking about how they are surprised to hear her real voice cause of Brooklyn 99 but now there’s tons of us who only know her voice from encanto and it’s so recognizable. Haha

[@ais.t.7872]

I was thinking the same😂I haven’t seen that show i only know her voice as Mirabel’s voice so that’s really cool for me

[@rishikatiwari8792]

The only reason why people don't recognize you IRL is because you have such a different vibe than what they expect

[@ramirezrocharochely1211]

I love that she can do any role in a incredible way.

[@capetune2611]

Stephanie is just.. The best 😂🤌🏻

[@fruitofthejoot]

Stephanie is special. Her soul radiates and shines just from interviews, her energy must be even more vibrant in person.

[@mek0411]

The SHOCK I experienced whenever I heard her real voice was huge! Love this woman!

[@TimGildersleeve]

Adore her. She's the gushy center of Rosa.

[@Svengali764]

I already loved her.. I mean she is wow then I got to know she had astigmatism and she is legit almost blind and you wouldn't know from her acting. Mind blown!

[@sylvanus2554]

Stephanie Beatriz is such a down to earth and very charming person, I absolutely enjoyed watching the video. I loved her portrayal of Rosa on B99 and I still remember being somewhat shocked when I realized Rosa’s voice was not her voice irl. She’s a great actress and have enjoyed her other films too, o truly wish her the best and look forward to whatever else she will be in in the future.

[@yoosufsuhail8892]

I’m still having a hard time listening to this. Is this the same person who was in B99? If so, DAMN. She really deserves an Emmy 🔥😭

[@Val-wh7dv]

watching her grow from guestroles on jessie to this has been such a beautiful journey to follow- i grew up with her and im so proud of her

[@norkrabiengnaisuanlungban]

I have just finished B99 last week but still cant move on. To see you in encanto trailer make me so happy. Inspector Diaz.

[@MattG532]

I found out she was Mirabel's voice after finish watching the movie in the credits scene and i couldn't believe it because I wasn't able to recognize her, i only knew her from B99 and now seeing interviews and hearing her normal voice feels like I've been lied this whole time, what a wonderful actress

[@LyssusX]

Same!!!

[@alexrose9507]

I was smiling throughout the whole video and I didn't even realize! She is an amazing actress.

[@borahebangtan]

i love this so much for stephanie cause she's such an amazing person and seeing her as roza, and then in in the heights and now in encanto is all just 🥺🥺🥺 i love her!!!

[@GunnarTobus]

I’m not used to her being calm. Rosa has given me too many high expectations. But for real, she’s so sweet.

[@eliasjohnson101]

I love her so much as Rosa! Now that I found out that she also voiced Mirabel... I love Encanto so much 💖💖💖 That movie will always hold a special place in my heart! We love you Stephanie!!! Keep on Believing and Keep on Going 💖🙌🏽

[@rogueguardian]

Stephanie is so loveable ahhh I can't ❤️

[@silverstone3578]

I just after some episodes of the 1st season. What's a surprise to see the actor behind the scene like this. Apparently she did a good job acting as Rosa, a character with a complete different type of personality. Her acting + the editing gave the character a really really attractive voice!

[@frankheathersu9790]

She’s very gorgeous AND naturally funny. An icon

[@marion_t]

Stephanie Beatriz you will ALWAYS be famous . The LOVE OF MY LIFE .

[@velvet_veneer17]

I don’t think Steph or any of the creators of encanto know this but THANK YOU FOR MIRABEL! Seriously you have no idea how much I need her in my life! I am so lucky to say that I have the doll and call her what we know as “Sister”. #stephaniebeatriz #mirabelmadrigal #encanto
