Each day, the Bbox team trolls YouTube for the hot clip—sometimes it's a brand-new moment and sometimes it's a throwback to an oldie but goodie. No matter what praise hands are shot up, pearls are clutched and the repeat button is hit.
"Move" from Dreamgirls (Heather Headley, Audra McDonald and Lillias White)
Ulterior Motives: Well friends, it's back to school, work, and that non-summer schedule this Tuesday. It might be a struggle to get moving with summer in the rear view mirror. Let us help. In late September 2001, three Broadway superstars came together as The Dreams in The Actors Fund presentation of the spectacular Tom Eyen/Henry Krieger musical Dreamgirls - Heather Headley as Lorrell Robinson, Audra McDonald as Deena Jones and Lillias White as Effie White. The trio performed on "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" and if this doesn't energize your day - watch it again!
Ultimate 🙌 🙌 moment: Lillias is giving you such a magnetic and captivating performance. The thrill of 1:22 to the riff as smooth as silk from 1:26 - 1:30. We are thoroughly obsessed with the groovy, dancey, magnificent moments starting at 1:40 - 1:52 but we need to break down what follows. Lillias starts singing her syncopated lyric with camera cutaways to Audra and Heather literally flashing to the superstars that they are (Audra at 1:57, Heather at 1:59) that we are living for. 2:02 to the end is wonderful. Did we pick one moment? Let's watch it again!
