At least, that’s the case with [rapper Snoop Dogg](http://time.com/4702019/president-trump-snoop-dogg-lavender-video/) and [actor Laverne Cox](http://time.com/collection-post/3822970/laverne-cox-2015-time-100/), who both enthusiastically took to their Instagram accounts to show their excitement over a clip of three kids who performed a spot-on rendition of “Listen,” the song that Beyoncé memorably sang in the film version of the musical [_Dreamgirls_](http://time.com/4406714/beyonce-emmy-nominations-egot/). According to [_New Now Next_](http://www.newnownext.com/filipino-children-sing-beyonce-listen/06/2017/), the kids are finalists on the the Filipino talent show _Tawag ng Tanghalan Kids_ and were appearing on another show, _Gandang Gabi Vice_, where they performed “Listen” as flawlessly as the diva Queen Bey herself and promptly became an Internet sensation. > [](https://twitter.com/joshjenks/status/878006129032220673) The performance resonated with more than just people online, however, with Snoop Dogg reposting the clip with lots of emoji to express his hearty approval of the musical talent. Laverne Cox also approved of the young talent paying homage to Beyoncé and took to her own Instagram to share her support. After watching these clips, it’s not hard to see why Snoop and Laverne were astounded by these young singers. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4851394/viral-kids-singing-beyonce/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4851394/viral-kids-singing-beyonce/"},"headline":"Celebrities Are Freaking Out Over These Kids' Spot-On Renditions of Beyoncé","datePublished":"2017-07-10T16:24:27.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:45:14.902Z","description":"Even stars are part of the Bey Hive","url":"https://time.com/4851394/viral-kids-singing-beyonce/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","viral","Beyonce","kids","Snoop Dogg","laverne cox"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt78e2fec2506d4cf2/6988d50c86f68e0e816e57ea/kids-singing-beyonce.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt78e2fec2506d4cf2/6988d50c86f68e0e816e57ea/kids-singing-beyonce.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Beyonce \"The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour\" - New York","caption":"Beyonce \"The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour\" - New York","creditText":"Larry Busacca/PW—WireImage","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4851394/viral-kids-singing-beyonce/","name":"Celebrities Are Freaking Out Over These Kids' Spot-On Renditions of Beyoncé"}}]}] ```
