Five Questions About Greyson “Paparazzi Kid” Chance, At Least One Of Which Will Probably Never Be Answered
5. So Ellen DeGeneres’ just-launched label eleveneleven records has signed Greyson Chance, the kid from Oklahoma who made it big on the Internet with his cover of Lady GaGa’s “Paparazzi” earlier this month. Ellen, you may recall, is a judge on American Idol. So does this mean that her label is associated with Sony Music, which has a link to the show?
4. Or is it associated with Interscope, home to Lady GaGa, which just last week was the label that had supposedly snagged the kid?
3. Is the timing of this announcement to the end of this Idol season a sign that Ellen, whose first year behind the Idol judges’ table was to put it politely “rough going,” might be leaving the show and embarking on her own musical career?
2. Or is it merely a sign that next season, the show’s 10th, she’s going to establish herself as the Alpha Female Of The Table, inevitably inspiring Kara DioGuardi to once again rip off her clothes in anger?
1. So Greyson’s whole “YouTube rise” was fake after all, wasn’t it? Can we believe in anything anymore? (OK, that’s an extra question. But it deserves to be answered, I think!)
