Music fans dropped their jaws after listening to Reneé Rapp sing Beyoncé's iconic hit "Dangerously In Love" as a duet with EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) winner Jennifer Hudson on her eponymous talk show.
Rapp is a singer who recently dropped her second studio album, "Snow Angel."
The 23-year-old came into prominence for her well-received performance as Regina George in the Broadway musical Mean Girls.
She is also the recipient of the 2018 Jimmy Award for Best Performance by an Actress, which recognizes excellence among high school students performing musical theater.
When she and Hudson sang Bey's song from her debut album of the same name from 2003, audiences were blown away by Rapp's powerhouse vocals.
Here is a clip of the performance that was shared on X (formerly Twitter).

One with some serious vocal chops.

And finally, the Beyhive weighed in and maintained their Queen was untouchable.
@BeyLegion @JHudShow See, this what I be trying to tell people, Beyonce has made what she does look EASY! We sing along to her hits because they are beautiful and catchy, however when you start to break down her vocals - technically...now see, it ain't that easy. Here, this is a PRIME example.— Sloane Rivers (@Sloane Rivers) 1696865180
