My heart will go on uh this one an extraordinary beautiful beautiful voice that was three-year-old
Angelica Nero singing Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On alongside Pianist Emilio last September.
The clip has now been viewed more than 600 million times and counted. Do you even know
how much that is? It's easy to see why and and guess what everybody Angelica doesn't just sing
she also plays the violin. Hello. I know it's incredible I mean what were we doing it for not
that. We are so excited to welcome four-year-old Angelica along with her mom and dad Olga and
Steven. Thank you so much for being here. Happy holidays. Thank you for having us. Angelica
it's such an honor to meet you. You're so incredible. 600 million people have seen you
you are only four years old. What does that feel like? Good. Yeah. I bet. Is that the best like
when you sing? Does it make you feel really good and does it make you smile and feel happy?
Yeah. Yeah. Is that why you like to sing? Yeah. Yeah. And your mom and dad it's so lovely to
have you both here today. When did you all realize that she had this gift? Very early on actually
pretty much as she just started speaking her first words. We noticed that whatever she was
doing she was humming to melodies and she was doing it in a perfect pitch and she was always
coming upbeat and she would know when to enter into a song which is kind of rare for that age.
Oh yeah rare for anyone. A toddler. 18 months old. Yeah. It's so wild. Angelica we're seeing you at
the piano. We understand you do more than just sing. Tell us about the musical instruments you
play. I play violin and piano. You do? Which is easier or harder? Easier. Which one? Piano or
violin? Both. Easier than singing. Now are you two musically inclined? Not really. No. We don't
really play instruments and we don't sing. She came out learning how to sing and singing to the
songs on the radio. It's remarkable. And I saw before Lauren in the video she was playing with
her little violin. It was like the most adorable thing and you all had that made just for her? Yes.
Yeah. Tell us about it. Did you have to have a special one for her? Yes so usually small violins
they don't sound really good. They sound terrible not like bigger violins and so I found the only
one violin maker in Germany who makes these small violins that sound good because it's very important
you know it's more fun for a kid to play when they hear a nice sound coming out of the instrument so
that was. And her parents were saying that she practices an hour a day on the violin. Oh my
goodness. And what's up with this Lady Gaga thing? What happened with Lady Gaga? That was the song
she heard on the radio and so a music video and she's also a dancer. Oh my gosh.
This is incredible. And she said I want to do that. I want to be Lady Gaga so we we created a music video
for her. Oh my gosh. And Angelica we heard you sing Celine Dion which blew away everybody. Who are
your favorite singers? What are your favorite songs? Lady Gaga. That's your favorite? Yeah.
And then I know that Christmas is just two days away. Have you written Santa a letter?
No. We have to do that later. You have to do it later. Yeah. But you're gonna give us a special gift today
because I understand you're gonna sing for us. Yeah. What are you gonna sing? Do you know? I'm gonna
sing Rudolph. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. That's the song that you're gonna sing for us?
I cannot believe that. I am so excited to hear you. You are so incredible. It is our honor to
have you here. Before we get to that performance let's put some information up on our screen
because you can follow Angelica on Instagram and TikTok at the Angelica Nero. You see it right there
