What happens when a sweet Oklahoma girl tries to share the stage with a bunny who has a Hollywood ego? Darci Lynne recently sat down with her famous puppet, Petunia, to perform a soulful tribute to Lana Del Rey. But the music had barely started before a big argument broke out. It is a rare look at what happens when a puppet decides she is the only real star in the room.
Watch the look on Darci’s face the moment her performance is hijacked by a Diva with long ears:
Who do YOU think won?
Petunia looks right at Darci and accuses her of stealing her thunder before making it impossible for the song to continue. It is a hilarious masterpiece of sass where Darci looks more defeated by the second. The puppet goes out of her way to ruin the performance on purpose, showing off an attitude that is much bigger than her fuzzy ears.
(Petunia really needs to work on her teamwork skills!)
One viewer said that they cannot stop laughing at the look of pure exhaustion on Darci’s face. Another person commented that Petunia is clearly the boss in this relationship and will not take a back seat to anyone. People are simply amazed at how Darci can play two different personalities so perfectly at the same time.
While this clip shows the funny side of their friendship, the bond between this girl and her puppets has deep roots in talent history. It reminds us of the first time the world saw what this duo could do on a much larger stage.
