In an exciting moment for both Evanescence fans and followers of the HBO series The Rehearsal, Amy Lee recently took to social media to express her admiration for the latest episode—which once again includes a rendition of the band’s iconic hit “Bring Me to Life.” This time, however, the performance is delivered with a fresh twist by Isabella Henao.
Amy Lee praised Henao’s performance, saying: “Isabella you were amazing! Love all the cool ad lib at the end and also super impressed you did all that in those heels!” Lee’s enthusiasm highlights how deeply she supports new interpretations of her work, especially in bold, creative contexts like this one.
The Rehearsal, created by Nathan Fielder, is known for blending reality with fiction in surreal and emotionally layered scenarios. While we won’t spoil the plot, this new episode offers yet another fascinating entry in the series—and “Bring Me to Life” plays a memorable part in its unfolding.
