I am smitten at her poise. I am humbled by her spirit and focus. Her story makes me grateful for mine.
Right? I can't get enough of her or her story. She is just amazing

I'd say her life is a testimony, they even cut her stomach yet God kept her alive they wrote her off but they forget God was and he's still the one with the pencil ✏️ she came from zero to hero, there's is nothing God can not do.
What an incredible woman her mother is! Her father too for agreeing to a double adoption. But then they've adopted many children. God bless them. So many people are financially able but too selfish. If you can or won't adopt, support orphaned or disadvantaged children and families.
I saw her dance not to long ago at the Dutch National Ballet. She is a very good and beautiful dancer.
Inspiring and awakening, thank you and may the universe bless her parents, who saved two little girls from such a terrible situation.
I danced for 8 years growing up and one my good friends at the ballet school was African American, I always saw her as so elegant and beautiful no matter what move she made. She is an phenomenal dancer and her skin color and African body make her dancing all the more beautiful. God has truly blessed through it all
I love the way she said it she will prove people wrong. That's call teaching. We should teach people not to descrmnet against children .
I just feel the love and admiration from the lady host
Wanted to say the same thing
I am so impressed in your story. Remember one day your wond will beheald ,but your scars will stay for testimonies. I am proud of you.
What a beautiful girl--inside & out!
Thanks for sharing. This make me cry and happy. The story of this young lady is inspiring. Thanks
It Is always Worth it. You Are a role model
Bravo, well done my dear child, you're an example to my girls, you're lovely like a butterfly, they never have one colour,👏🏼👏🏼
that was the sweetest thing to say
When things easily taken for granted like the color of shoes and tights and the cut of a leotard aren't made for people who look like you, you subconsciously receive the message that the art form itself is not for you. I'm glad changes are being made in places most people didn't even know change was needed.
I appreciate the very wise elder among them!
She’s a total star! 🌟 💫💫💫
I just wanna hug her. She’s amazing human being❤❤

I'd say her life is a testimony, they even cut her stomach yet God kept her alive they wrote her off but they forget God was and he's still the one with the pencil ✏️ she came from zero to hero, there's is nothing God can not do.

RIP, beautiful brilliant Michaela 💜🩰
God had to be with this young lady. I thank God for the wonderful couple who adopted her and the other kids. They are the real angels on Earth❤
You Are Soo very Awesome ❣️

Ohh. BUT I have watched your since you were 15. You Go Woman
My girl you are so wonderful and an inspiration to all God blessed you honey love ya mama
You are a great inspiration Michaela .
Love and blessings to you 😘💕
I was very moved by your story. I wish you happiness in your future and am certain you will attain all your dreams. Gina Dodds
God blessed people who adopt her
I wonder where are those people that Ill treated her. She is really blessed. What cannot break you will mould you for better.
Thank GOD
Superstitions are the real evil. Grace guided her to Love and nurturing. A blessed child.
True.....im an African so i understand them well. I'm made so happy by her story, but the most important thing is missing - God's Providence! Imagine to know God loves you that much that he changed your life LIKE THAT, then add on top sent his Son to die for you. Grace indeed. Even her adopted Mother was spurred by God. Its what He does. Also i like how personable she is, but not arrogant. She has a quite spirit, i hope that never goes away.
I love this young lady and her awesome true story. But what I couldn’t Believe is how many times He interrupted her story to the point she was unable to share her complete thought.
I watched a competition with her...
Wow thankful for your life and progress my Sierra Leone sister you're a star
She told that little girl, "You will dance.."
Rock that pink suit, girl!
She is really articulate and self-assured. God bless her parents, they are in the hearts of God, the Almighty..
Poor girl who would of caused so much. Pain to a little girl such nasty words a little love an hope faith she made it congratulations 🎊 huni

The older man looks bored. On a positive note, her story was so touching
he looks drunk lol
I came here looking for anyone else who noticed that he looked like sour.
He seems really listening and respecting her rise and he’s into her every word
@@Tracy-hm3yi Stop judging other people for no reason.
You do not know how anyone else feels. Maybe that is his facial expression most of the time. He is there, and he is listening. He is not saying anything negative about anyone else.
Here just to see more of Matty and his current hair era
Our is a housome God
She’s just died! No one knows the cause. what a terrible, tragedy!
I hate that they keep making her explain that
Don't idolize any one we are all human just like you and they did not make you who you are. GOD ALMIGHTY IS A jealous GOD. I PRAY YOU WILL GET TO KNOW HIM.
You should you are not a mistake and there is CREATOR OF THE WORLD EVERYTHING AND EVERY ONE BELONGS TO HIM. THERE IS NOTHING TO GAIN FROM THE WORLD AND LOSE YOUR OWN SOUL. MOCHAELA DEPRINCE, I DECLARE YOUR HEAVENLY AND HOLY FATHER OVER YOU LIFE, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST HIS SON. GOD BLESS YOU IN JESUS NAME, MUCH TO LEARN EVERYTHING ABOUT GOD IN LIFE ALL WILL FALL IN PLACE WHEN YOU KNOW HIM MAY THE LORD OPEN THE DOORS FOR YOU TO KNOW HIM SO YOUR STORY WILL TRULY HAVE AND HAPPY ENDING. 🙏❤
This is an inspirational story. It is not about idolizing anyone. She is already happy. Her story will continue. It is not about to end. Other people tried to make her feel as if she was a mistake. She did not think she was a mistake.
She looks like lupita
My eyes too akh
