Greyson Chance album - Waiting Outside the Lines - cover released

Ellen, of course, is the founder of the record label eleveneleven and he was her first artist signed, so that bit of synchronicity makes sense. Did we mention that Madonna's manager Guy Oseary and Lady Gaga's manager Troy Carter are co-managing Greyson?

In case you forgot who Greyson is or you live under a gigantic moon rock that plummeted to earth eons ago, he skyrocketed to fame (and Ellen's attention) via YouTube, rather like Justin Bieber did, when his piano-playing performance of Lady Gaga's song, "Paparazzi" went viral.

OK, so he doesn't do hoodies or rap tunes and he hasn't started dancing or hanging out with Kim Kardashian, MIley Cyrus or Beyonce. Yet. But that's what we love about him. He's a normal 12-year-old boy. And he's got an amazing voice.
