Needless to say, "We Don't Talk About Bruno" is one of the biggest songs this 2022.

The Disney hit took over the world by storm in the first quarter of the year, with thousands of different covers, dance TikToks, and renditions, the Lin Manuel-Miranda track is all over the world!

The ensemble song from "Encanto" peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking Disney's longest-reigning chart-topper in the chart's history. Aside from this, the track sets a record for the most credited artist on a No. 1 track with six, Stephanie Beatriz, Carolina Gaitán, Mauro Castillo, Adassa, Rhenzy Feliz, and Diane Guerrero.

Since its release, the song has been covered, and performed many times, including a full live performance from the entire cast, well almost.

  • North Kardashian-West

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's eldest daughter, North West, performed the earworm Disney hit in the backseat of their car, jamming with her best friend, Ryan Romulus, dramatically, complete with all the hand gestures and actions from the film. Indeed, like his father, North is really a star in the making!

  • Angelica Hale

America's Got Talent finalist Angelica Hale stunned the world with her amazing, one-woman cover of the ensemble track. Channeling every character from the film perfectly, Hale made sure she enjoyed every bit of singing! Some of the comments on her performance even suggest she could actually be a singing voice for a future Disney Princess or character!

  • Oscars 2022

It was a shocker for everyone when the wildly-popular track would miss out on a nomination at the Academy Awards. One of Encanto's songs, "Dos Oroguitas" was instead nominated for Best Original Song. But to compensate for the public clamor for including the song at the awards ceremony, the Academy decided to include a performance of the song in the show, featuring the original voice actors.

While the performance was highly-awaited, many were disappointed when the original cast only sang a part of the song, not to mention Megan Thee Stallion's rap which many deemed unnecessary.

  • American Idol

American Idol Season 20 Top 10 finalists embarked on a "Disney Night," singing the chart-topping song with Dolores and Camillo's voice actors, Adassa and Rhenzy Feliz. The performance was a treat, many even favored this song better than the "botched" Oscars performance of the song.

  • The Hollywood Bowl

Everyone's ultimate dream to see the original cast perform the song live finally happened at the Hollywood Bowl performance of the hit song. Complete with the visual effects and the original costumes of the characters, it's like watching the movie come to life! Completely a surreal moment!
