Ойын-сауық

Cynthia Erivo performs "Fantasy" & "Reasons" to honor Earth, Wind & Fire at the 2019 Kennedy Center Honors.
Cynthia Erivo is a British-born actress, singer, and songwriter. She is the recipient of several accolades, including a Tony Award and a Grammy Award, and has been nominated for two Academy Awards. She gained recognition for starring in the Broadway revival of The Color Purple from 2015 to 2017, for which she won the 2016 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, among others. Erivo portrayed the abolitionist Harriet Tubman in the biopic film Harriet (2019), receiving Academy Award nominations for Best Actress and Best Original Song.
The Kennedy Center Honors celebrates icons who, through their artistry, have left an indelible stamp on our collective cultural consciousness,” stated Kennedy Center Chairman David M. Rubenstein. “Earth, Wind & Fire’s hooks and grooves are the foundation of a seminal style that continues to shape our musical landscape."
In a star-studded celebration on the Kennedy Center Opera House stage, the 2019 Honorees were saluted by today's leading performers from New York, Hollywood, and the arts capitals of the world through performances and tributes.

Did you see the way David Foster was looking at her at the end of the show? I feel he wants to write for her. Would love to see what comes out of such a colaboration.

    Cynthia Erivo continues to prove herself as a masterclass vocalist and force of artistic excellence - from the treatment of the craft to the delivery of a truly stellar performance. The effortlessness and grace with which she takes you on a musical journey truly reflects the dedication, passion and grounded footing that all artists should have, or at the very least aspire to have. Truly, an amazing performance.

    Every man has a place, in his heart, there's a space And the world can't erase his fantasies Take a ride in the sky, on our ship, Fantasii All your dreams will come true, right away And we will live together, until the twelfth of never Our voices will ring forever, as one Come to see, victory in a land called, "Fantasty" Loving life, for you and me, to behold, to your soul is ecstasy As you stay for the play, fantasy has in store for you A glowing light will see you through It's your day, shining day, all your dreams come true Now, I'm craving your body Is this real? Temperatures rising I don't want to feel I'm in the wrong place to be real Whoa, when I'm longing to love you Just for a night Kissing and hugging And holding you tight Please let me love you With all my might Reasons The reasons that we're here The reasons that we fear Our feelings won't disappear Oooh, and after the love game Has been played All our illusions Were just a parade And all our reasons start to fade All our reasons why (All our reasons were a lie) All our reasons were a lie (After all our reasons) (Love was left aside) Love was left aside I'm longing to love you For one night

    I truly believe that Cynthia will win an Oscar someday either as an actress or as a songwriter. She will join the elite recipients of EGOT .... . P. S CYNTHIA HAS A GRAMMY, TONY AND EMMY...ONLY OSCAR IS MISSING. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE AND TALENTED WOMAN!
