Johanna Colón is receiving some well-earned respect for her fierce dance moves to Aretha Franklin’s iconic song ‘RESPECT.’
The six-year-old dancer’s mom, Elissa Colón, filmed her daughter’s tap number at the Heather’s Dance Inc annual recital this past Sunday in Raleigh, N.C.
Elissa added the video onto her Facebook page, and titled the video “Johanna channeling Aretha Franklin!” And before she knew it the video went viral, collecting more than 34-million views in just two days.
The girl’s infectious dedication to matching Aretha Franklin’s demanding tone has made her a viral sensation.
Accompanied by two other little dancing divas, Johanna puts her sharp moves, exaggerated bops and sassy facial expressions on display.

In an interview with TODAY, Elissa said the tiny dancer practiced her routine "constantly" in the weeks leading up to the show.
Well, Johanna’s practice and dedication definitely shined through! This little dancing diva has a very bright dance career ahead of her.
