Darci Lynne, Petunia and their hippo friend stun fans with a wonderfully weird vocal collaboration

There’s no denying that Darci Lynne Farmer knows how to put on a show.

The America’s Got Talent Season 12 winner has captivated audiences with her incredible ventriloquism and powerhouse vocals for years. But this time, she’s taking things to a whole new level with a wonderfully weird holiday collaboration that has fans going crazy.

Darci posted a video on Instagram featuring none other than Glee star Darren Criss. In the clip, she kicks things off by singing “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas” alongside her beloved bunny sidekick, Petunia. Just when you think it can’t get any better, the camera pans over to Criss, who joins in before introducing his own puppet—an adorable hippopotamus sporting a T-shirt promoting his Christmas album, A Very Darren Crissmas.

“Funny seeing you here @darrencriss!” Darci captioned the post. “How’d you know all Petunia and I wanted was a hippopotamus for Christmas?!”
