00:00We got some marching. Oh my goodness. What's up, Soror? Hey, welcome everybody. Welcome to Essence Festival 2023.
00:30Welcome, everybody, to the Disney booth here at the Essence Festival of Culture.
00:47If you came to have a good time this weekend, let me hear you make some noise.
00:52That's what I'm talking about. The energy is here in the booth already. Why?
00:56Why? Because Disney, we came to play. Let me hear everybody say, we came to play.
01:03That's what I'm talking about. We came to play.
01:07Now, speaking of play, there are so many ways for you to enjoy the immersive experience we brought to you here at the Disney booth.
01:14Don't forget, as you're going through the entire booth, we want you to take photos and we want you to use the hashtag came to play.
01:21And we want you to use the hashtag DisneyXEssence.
01:24Now, we're so happy to be here in the city of New Orleans. Y'all make some noise for New Orleans.
01:31So, look, since we're in the city, we were thinking, how can we celebrate this opportunity we have to be right here in the city of New Orleans?
01:38And you know what, y'all? I can't think of a better way to celebrate than with the princess who's from this incredible city.
01:48You know what? Can we make some noise for the incredible Princess Tiana?
01:53Y'all can do better than that. Make some noise for Princess Tiana, who has an all new attraction coming to both Disneyland and Disney World.
02:02Tiana's Bayou Adventure coming next year in 2024.
02:06Now, Tiana's been up to some incredible stuff, y'all.
02:09She actually has this incredible new spot called Tiana's Foods, where she's got all kind of stuff.
02:15She's great at giving out jobs, and she's also got this wonderful hot sauce line.
02:20Now, I know she's getting ready to have an incredible Mardi Gras, her and Prince Naveen, later on tonight to celebrate.
02:26But you know what? It'd be so cool if they did a little...
02:31You know what? That sounds like second-line music to me.
02:35It'd be so cool if there was a little second-line energy in celebration of Princess Tiana.
02:40Uh, uh, uh, uh.
02:47That's what I'm talking about.
02:49That's how you start off the day.
02:52Celebrating the one and only Princess Tiana, Tiana's Foods.
02:56I feel them bringing that second-line energy.
03:08Hey!
03:25Hey!
03:26Hey!
03:26Hey!
03:26Hey!
03:27Hey!
03:31Y'all make some noise.
03:32It's a party here, in the Disney Food at the Essence Festival of Culture.
03:36Bringing in the second-line energy.
03:39Hey!
03:39Hey!
03:39Hey!

03:45That's what I'm talking about.
03:46It's a party already.
03:48Why?
03:48Because we came to dance.
03:50We came to have some fun, but most of all, we came to play.
03:55I feel you.
03:56I feel you.
03:57Hey, hey, hey.
04:04That's what I'm talking about.
04:05It feels good already.

04:14I see y'all moving.
04:20I love it.
04:24I love it.
04:25I love it.
04:39I want you to hang right here for me.
04:41Everybody make some noise.
04:45That's the kind of celebration energy when we came to play.
04:50Why?
04:50Because it's a celebration.
04:52You know what?
04:53I know that's how Princess Tiana and Naveen are going to celebrate later on tonight.
04:57It would be so cool if she maybe stopped by before tonight's celebration.
05:03Anybody want to hang with my friend Princess Tiana?
05:07How cool would it be if she stopped by to hang with us a little bit before her party tonight?
05:12Everybody make some noise one time.
05:27She's been up to some incredible things.
05:29And you can find her in her all-new incredible Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Disneyland in California
05:37and at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
05:41Make some noise for the one and only Princess Tiana.
05:58Well, look at y'all.
05:59Y'all must be having a job at your time, huh?
06:01We are having an incredible time.
06:03Now, Princess Tiana, how are you?
06:04We are so glad you're back home in your city.
06:13Now, tell me this.
06:14You've been up to quite a bit recently.
06:16Tell us a little bit about what you've been up to lately.
06:18Well, sugar business is hopping around the restaurant.
06:21We are working on some brand-new recipes.
06:23Y'all know I love my classics.
06:25Gumbo, beignets.
06:26But we have a lot of new things coming in.
06:28Still stay tuned.
06:29Oh, we will stay tuned indeed.
06:32Now, before you go, I've got to ask you one question personally.
06:35How's your friend, Louis?
06:36Oh, Louis is doing swell.
06:39He's out in the bayou helping out Mama Odie today.
06:41But I will let him know you asked about it.
06:43Please do indeed.
06:44One more time, show some love to Princess Tiana.
06:49Thank you, darling, everyone.
06:51Now, if you want more opportunities to hang with Princess Tiana,
06:55you can do so in our character fan zone,
06:58which will be on the second floor of our character fan zone,
07:02where you'll have opportunities to meet Princess Tiana in her full gown,
07:06as well as checking out Tiana's Bayou Adventure,
07:10which comes to Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort next year, 2024.
07:16One more time.
07:17Make some noise, y'all.
07:21That second line felt so good.
07:23But did y'all peep who that was led by,
07:26would y'all make some noise for a New Orleans hero celebrity amongst us,
07:31the one and only second line shortage in the booth?
07:37You know what?
07:38I tell you what.
07:38Can y'all come hang with me on the stage?
