Amber Daniels ChackoHeck to the YES!
An 11-year-old boy named Luke Chacko just won the Internet when he basically stole the show at Idina Menzel's concert last Sunday in Grand Prairie, Texas. The pint-sized singer shocked the audience (and the big-voiced songstress) when he surprised the crowd with his powerhouse vocals and belted out "Let It Go" from Frozen.
At the very beginning of the clip that went quickly viral, Idina plucks Luke out of the crowd and mentions that most boys who come to her show don't like "Let It Go."
"Every time a boy comes up, he tells me he doesn't really like this song," the 46-year-old explained. To which, Luke replied, "Heck to the no. I'm offended."
And then in no time, young Luke is crushing his own rendition of "Let It Go." Of course the audience couldn't get enough of it. He was so good that the Broadway singer had him sing it not once, but twice so that everyone could hear the star in the making.
"You are very special," said the season star. "We'll have to talk about this later."
And that's just what we did! Luke spoke to E! News and said singing with Idina had always been a "dream" of his. "I practice all the time, so I was prepared but I certainly didn't expect that she would ever really ask me to come on stage and sing with her."
As for what it was like singing with his idol? "It was a great experience. Idina was very kind to my mom, my sister Halle and me. She made us all feel special, and she was really funny."
It should come as no surprise that Luke's a big fan of Idina's pipes. Recently Luke put on a rousing performance of Menzel's beloved tune from Wicked, "Defying Gravity," during a local talent show.
This little songbird is certainly defying gravity with his big voice!
Encore, Luke! Encore!
