This week’s That Grape Juice Cover Star sails in from sisterly trio Amor Kismet. Watch as the US natives take on Mariah Carey‘s latest Miguel-assisted single ‘#Beautiful’:

Absolutely beautiful!  Aside from the fact that the ladies are easy on the eyes, their harmonic twist to the duet helped make the tune their own without taking away from the performance (or what listeners expect from the performance).

No distracting melisma abuse, unnecessary belting, or overdone showy singing here – a trait that causes many a Youtuber to crash and burn.  The beauty of the sister’s performance was its simple, direct approach.  For that, we give the trio an A+!
