In April 2010, 12-year-old Greyson Chance went viral with his piano cover of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi,” which garnered millions of views and caught the attention of celebrities like Ryan Seacrest and Ellen DeGeneres.
His appearance on The Ellen Show marked the start of his career, where he was awarded a record deal and prizes.
Despite early success, Greyson later expressed disappointment with Ellen, calling her manipulative.
His 2022 album Palladium reflected his personal journey and growth. Today, Greyson’s story highlights how genuine talent and passion can lead to lasting success, even after viral fame fades.
