  • After Greyson Chance went viral with a video of him singing a cover of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" at age 12, he became one of Ellen's favorite talented kids. Now at 21, Greyson returned to the show and talked with Ellen about why he decided to leave the music industry for a few years, and what a fan said that inspired him to come out as gay in a moving Instagram post.

    How is this young man so confident, calm, and well spoken? He seems so comfortable there.

      The biggest hurdle to be an artist is to have that confidence and fearlessness in front of people. You can see he had that from the start. Next, of course comes the talent, and he has that too. He's so likable too. A very nice voice even just speaking.

    How did I not see this in April?!?! I met him at Milwaukee Wisconsin pride fest shortly after this in June! also saw him in concert with Cody Simpson when I was 12. He was so sweet and he cares so much about everyone, he even spoke to my mom about random things. I got to stand next to his good friends father during the concert and got to hear about his friendship with his daughter and it just seems he surrounds himself with such positive people and energy. I love this.
