Assalamualaikum ~

When I was looking through the Home Page on Facebook . 

A friend of mine ( Kevin Anil ) posted a video of a famous Philippine girl singing . 

All credits should be given to him =)

Thanks Kevin for sharing that video , hehe ...

Anyways , here's some informations I took from Wikipedia.com :-

Maria Lourdes Aragon (born July 17, 2000) is a Filipino-Canadian singer from Winnipeg, Manitoba.

On February 16, 2011, a video of Maria Aragon performing a cover of "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga was posted to her sister's YouTubechannel to showcase Maria's talent to friends and family. The video caught Lady Gaga's attention and she was so impressed by Maria's performance that she retweeted a link to the video to her eight million followers, causing a sensation and launching Maria to instant international fame.^[1] The video garnered over 10 million views on YouTube in five days. In 6 days, her video, "Born This Way (Cover)" on Youtube had reached over 25 million views.

Toronto's Virgin Radio 99.9 was the among the first media outlets to reach out to Maria and attempted to fly Maria and her family to Toronto so that Maria could perform live on air. Those plans were cancelled due to the weather. During an interview on HOT 103 in Winnipeg, Lady Gaga called into the show to tell Maria how moved she had been by her performance. Lady Gaga then invited an already surprised Maria to perform "Born This Way" with her at The Monster Ball Tour concert in Toronto in March, an offer which Maria enthusiastically accepted. On March 3, 2011, Maria joined Lady Gaga on stage in front of a packed audience at the Air Canada Centre, where together they performed an acoustic duet of "Born this Way" with Maria sitting on Gaga's lap, playing piano and Lady Gaga working the pedals. At the end of the song, Gaga turned the microphone over to Maria who thanked the audience and Gaga for allowing her to perform.

Maria later rejoined Lady Gaga and her team of back up dancers for an uptempo finale version of "Born this Way" culminating in a group hug and loud cheers from the audience.

American talk show host Ellen DeGeneres took notice of her from Lady Gaga's tweet and invited Maria to appear on her show on February 21, 2011, where Maria again performed "Born This Way" on the piano earning a standing ovation from the audience.

Aragon is a fifth-grade student at the Isaac Brock School. ^[2] She lives with her parents, two sisters and a brother in Winnipeg.

She's awesome , right ? Haha ~
