Greyson Chance Meets Lady Gaga, Tweets Photo

By Zach Dionne Posted Jul 22nd 2010 11:23AM

Lady Gaga-coverin', Justin Bieber-lookin' Greyson Chance met his idol at one of her concerts this week, tweeting: "I met @LadyGaga! She was so kind, gave me some great advice and put on an amazing show!!" Greyson also shared a photo of the meet-up (above).

When the 12-year-old piano prodigy from Oklahoma set YouTube ablaze in May, he quickly appeared on 'Ellen,' where Gaga made a surprise phone call, advising him to "work really hard, and stay away from girls and be focused."

News came just weeks after Greyson's debut that Ellen DeGeneres started a record label and signed Chance as her first artist. In a simple statement, DeGeneres said: "Greyson inspired me to start a record label called eleveneleven. He is my first artist and we are making a record together." In a video message on her website, DeGeneres issued the singer a large check for $10,000.

Kelly Cheek, Greyson's music teacher at Cheyenne Middle School in Edmond, Oklahoma, told PopEater in May, "I have never seen anyone with his level or type of talent. We really hope he comes back to school for the rest of the year, but after this video, who knows what his future holds!"

DON'T BE A HATER....LADY GAGA HAS MEGA TALENT!

By Melanie

That's such a dumb thing to say. He loves her, and was super excited when he got a call from her. Imagine actually getting the chance to meet her.

Greyson Chance is an incredibly talented person. He is naturally gifted, and I will buy his CD. So glad he was inspired by Lady Gaga, another powerhouse with incredible pipes. Would love to see them on stage together one day -- :)

a parent should not tell a kid what kind of music to listen to its not being a good parent

So why if Miley is being too sexy for teens that Lady Gaga is an OK artist for a 12 year old boy? Talk about double standards. And I like Lady GaGa, but I'm just sayin.

Greyson Chance does the song better, has a better voice. Even though Lady Gaga can't be denied her talent and intelligence, the kid outdoes her. Part of the reason for this is the fact that he's fresh and she is burning out already from the obvious -- giving in to her fans and the paparazzi.
