Nicki Minaj greets YouTube sensations on The Ellen DeGeneres Show

Ellen DeGeneres does it once again. She discovers another bright new star on You Tube. 
 
The sensational little Sophia Grace Brownlee, 8, and her cousin Rosie Grace McClelland, 5, appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Wednesday. The two girls performed Nicki Minaj’s Super Bass which went viral on YouTube.

The eight-year old Sophia had the crowd on their feet while she was rapping her way through the song. An astonishing performance, in which, Ellen surprised little Sophia with a guest appearance by Nicki Minaj.

Sophia was all glam and giggles as she met her favorite pop icon. Jumping up and down in excitement, she then ran over to Minaj and hugged her.

The young girls from Essex, England took You Tube by storm earlier this month with their rendition of Nicki Minaj’s Super Bass and Keri Hilson’s Turn My Swag On.

Minaj was so impressed and inspired by their performance she said, “I was calling everyone to see this video.” After the girls’ performance, she gave the young girls some advice. “You are incredible. I just want you to stay in school,” she told them. “Music is beautiful but stay in school. Put your books first and singing second.”

An impressive performance, a whirlwind of excitement, this is a star being born. Miraj commented, “I said ‘superstar’. Seriously, we are watching a journey that’s about to be amazing.”

You Tube is one of the most influential and trending social media platforms in the world today.  It is the place where stars are born and news events are captured.  For little Sophia and her cousin Rosie, their stardom is just the beginning. Catch the video on Ellen courtesy Warner Bros.
