Fans at the D23 Disney and Pixar showcase today were in for a real treat. Not only did they get a glimpse into new trailers for upcoming feature films like ...

The song itself is a song of longing, and Bailey captures that perfectly, often in an underwater performance that looks to be a duplicate of the cartoon frame for frame. The Little Mermaid is currently set to be released May 26, 2023. Her performance is stellar, emulating Ariel's desire to be a part of the people. Bailey is in a costume similar to the cartoon version of Ariel, however, instead of a purple shell bra and a green tail, hers is much more iridescent. The clip itself took three days to film and clearly includes computer graphics because Bailey is underwater. The Grammy-nominated Bailey is not only an actor but also an experienced musician.
