Carol Burnett was left stunned when a familiar face and a co-star delivered a surprise musical performance. The tune this individual sang was also very familiar to most, and particularly meaningful to Carol. Watch the short, but tear-jerking clip to see Carol’s look of utter shock and disbelief when this person stepped out on the stage.

Carol Burnett is a Hollywood icon and a comedic legend. She has had a long, illustrious and storied career spanning decades. If they were to make a Mt. Rushmore of comedy, Carol’s face would most certainly belong on that monument. 

While she is best known for her legendary television comedy show, The Carol Burnett Show, she also appeared in a handful of recognizable and iconic films. Of course, the one that immediately comes to mind is the 1982 musical “Annie.” That’s one that everyone is familiar with, even if you are not a fan of musicals.

In the movie, Carol played the evil Miss Hannigan. Starring alongside her in the film was Bernadette Peters. A clip posted on social media captured a special moment, a reunion between the two “Annie” co-stars.

It’s clear from Carol’s reaction that she was not made aware of Bernadette’s appearance beforehand. Her mouth is literally left hanging open as she takes the stage and sings a song that everyone knows and loves. She is just as surprised as everyone in the audience, who can be heard hooting and hollering at the announcement of Bernadette Peters. Bernadette beautifully performed the song that Carol would sing at the end of every episode of The Carol Burnett Show.

Despite being in her 90s, Carol remains relatively active, popping up in television shows and movies from time to time, and why not? If she is still willing and able to do it, more power to her. There aren’t many people who will say they’ve had their fill of Carol Burnett. She remains as beloved as ever.

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”
