Sixth grader goes viral with Lady Gaga song







In one week, an American sixth-grader has captured 1 million YouTube hits, a Facebook fan club and a spot on The Ellen Show, all from a Grade 6 school performance.

Greyson Michael Chance sat down at a piano for the Chorus Performance Night at his middle school in Edmond, Okla., and belted out his cover version of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi.”

The three-minute performance turns his audience of skeptical teenage girls into wide-eyed converts. The 12-year-old Chance, sporting a Justin Bieber haircut and shorts, gives an awkward little bow before dashing off-stage.

“I am very inspired by Lady Gaga and Augustana,” Chance says on his YouTube channel. “Lady Gaga is a freak but she has so much talent and her style of music is what I would like mine to be when I’m older. Augustana is one of the most underrated bands I think ever to step the planet. They have such a good concept with folk and rock. It is very sad that they are so unknown.”

Chance posted the video on his YouTube site, greyson97, along with two of his original songs, performed on his home piano. By Wednesday morning, the video had more than 1 million views and Ellen DeGeneres tweeted that he’d been signed to appear on her talk show on Thursday.

A Facebook site created Tuesday, called We Are Your Fans , had more than 2,500 members and was growing by 100 people an hour.

Certain antagonistic celestial alignments are stirring things up with certain people. It’s becoming obvious that some people love to argue. Although, you’re not particularly inclined this way, you will put up a good fight if necessity calls for it. A drama that has sprung up should not be allowed to disturb your equilibrium. It’s not worth your time, so stay clear of it.
