A six-year-old tiny dancer from Raleigh, North Carolina, is going viral for her especially animated routine to Aretha Franklin’s 1967 hit “Respect” at a recital Saturday night.
Johanna’s performance has racked up nearly 23 million views since mom Elissa M. Colón uploaded a video of it to Facebook on June 7. Colón told TODAY.com that her daughter didn’t know who the Queen of Soul was, but when she heard the song, she said, “Ooh, she’s got a lot of sass, mommy.”
