I SPEAK SIX LANGUAGES is my favorite song from SPELLING BEE.

...And am absolutely charmed by this girl singing it.

Enjoy!

Completely endearing and nice to see her interpret the song having not seen the show. Quite the voice on her as well...

Any idea of her age?

Hard to say... I'm guessing in her late teens???

Young definitely.

More power to her. I wish more of the "professional" performers I see had a tenth of her enthusiasm for the art form.

So many performers these days come off like they are on stage just to showcase themselves for any visiting sitcom casting director.

She is so infectious! And what a great voice. Thank you for sharing this

Exactly

Although young, it doesn't seem like she is afraid to play the goofy/fun side of the song which is refreshing rather than simply relying on the "snooty" interpretation.

When not at work, I'm going to check out her other videos. If she has some sassy/rock spunk she'd be great in SA some day (soon)...

She has an amazing potential. She just needs to learn to control power and work on her annunciation a bit. With a good voice teacher and a bit of structured work this girl could a shot at a big future.

"A little about me:
Clearly I loveeee musicals! One of my goals is to be a performer. Although Broadway would be ideal and the ultimate, I'd be happy pretty much anywhere. I would love to one day perform at the Fox Theater in Atlanta since that is where I'm constantly seeing shows or to be in national tours.

My other goal is to help save lives. For as long as I can remember I've been interested in medicine. So my goal right now is to get into nursing school, get my BSN, move to NYC, or Chicago, or Atlanta or some major city and pursue my other dream of being a singer/actress."


If there were only more people like her in this world...

I kind of love this girl. Already.

I love that song too but my favorites are "I'm Not That Smart" and "My Friend The Dictionary". And the opening song isn't too bad either =-D

Well I actually listened to the whole video and then went to check out another one... so that's a good sign! She's really great.

As for her age, in her NO GOOD DEED video she replied 3 weeks ago to someone that she is 20.

"No Good Deed"

Just watch it for the riff on "supply" and "Fiyero"

Holy. Hell.

Probably. I think she rocks.
