Hello, welcome. Do you know who this amazing young woman is?
If you said "Auli'i Cravalho," then you are correct! If you didn't, it's OK: just know that she's about to be your new fave. You might know her as the voice of Moana in Disney's Moana...
...or as the girl who absolutely KILLED IT at the Oscars singing "How Far I'll Go" on Sunday night.
Girl hit EVERY. NOTE.
She was more poised and elegant than we peasants shall ever be and she is ONLY 16 YEARS OLD.
When Lin-Manuel Miranda is your hype man, you know you're Pretty Good.
A 16 year old Polynesian just performed at the #Oscars ✊🏽@auliicravalho, you did that 👏🏽
The performance understandably gained her quite a few new fans.
I like you, Moana girl, you hella likable
Auli'i usually rocks a Moana-esque flower behind one ear when she's on red carpets...
...but for her Oscars red carpet debut, she was all minimal class. Friendly reminder: this girl is 16 YEARS OLD.
And despite her obvious maturity, she's still an adorable teen.
She's as charming as her on-screen Disney princess persona.
And she's just getting started. Next, we're going to see her in Drama High, an upcoming scripted NBC show about a high school theater program and the spirited teacher who leads it.

Basically, get ready for the Age of Auli'i. We're living in a blessed time.
Speechless. ❤
