Laverne Cox is known as many things: as one of the very few transgender actresses who’s making noise in the mainstream media; as “Sophia” on the Netflix hit series, Orange Is The New Black; and as the transgender celebrity whom D.L. Hughley once stated his Caitlyn Jenner needs to take notes from (FYI: Caitlyn and D.L. have both publicly thrown shade at each other in the past).
Back to Laverne though, she has just introduced the work to a brand new side of herself, which she says is a very vulnerable, uncomfortable move for her. She shook up the internet today, with her opera singing skills! And get this, the woman can SING! In her online message she wrote “Be kind it was for charity. I love opera and it’s super duper vulnerable for me to post this and open myself up to all your criticism. But I wanna share my loves with you. So here it is.” Check Laverne’s video posted below and tell us what you think…

See? Told y’all Laverne could sing. Her voice gave us vibes of the legendary 90 year old opera icon, Leontyne Price…
