Halle Bailey Watches “The Little Mermaid” In Theatres Wearing A Disguise

Before she took on the role of Ariel in Disney’s live-action remake of The Little Mermaid, Halle Bailey was best known for her vocal talents alongside her big sister Chloe in their R&B duo. Their debut project, Ungodly Hour brought them massive success, but we have yet to hear a sophomore effort from the siblings. Instead, the older of the two has been focusing on her solo career with In Pieces and a movie called Praise This. At the same time, the younger has been gearing up for her feature film debut which finally took place last week.

Halle has unfortunately faced considerable racist backlash for taking the traditionally white role as a Black woman. Nevertheless, her performance proves that she was the perfect pick for the role, as many critics have already stated. While she likely already knows the script like the back of her hand, the 23-year-old wanted to get the authentic theatre experience. In order to keep a low profile, she donned sunglasses and a COVID-19 face mask to conceal her identity.

Rather than sticking with Ariel’s signature red style from the film, Bailey also opted to sport thick twists of hair, making her almost more mistakable for Chloe. As Uproxx notes, she appears to have been viewing The Little Mermaid at Americana at Brand’s AMC in Glendale, which is an area that celebrities have been known to frequent. Based on the TikTok she posted this week, the “Do It” songstress doesn’t appear to have broken her cover.

Elsewhere on social media, the Atlanta native shared an adorable video of her and her boyfriend DDG exchanging countless smooches following the conclusion of the worldwide Disney media tour with co-stars and executives who helped the long-awaited film come to fruition.
