BroadwayBox is wishing you a FABULOUS Monday, friends. What better way to celebrate Sister Act's 9th Broadway Anniversary than with 9 fabulous videos of some fierce Deloris Van Cartiers in action!
Music legend Alan Menken and lyricist Glenn Slater penned this bop for the Broadway musical of the beloved Whoopi Goldberg 1992 film. The song captures the sass and splendor of Deloris spectacularly!

Yas we love original Deloris Van Cartier, Patina Miller. That belt at 2:32 and the final note! Star star star.

First off - outfit! GLAM! Secondly, thank you for the "hot shocking pink" at 2:20.

We couldn't not include Cynthia's! We just wish this was an official video. Effortless!
