There are many new singers and performers that are becoming very talented at a surprisingly young age. Although a lot of new talents come to mind, perhaps the fastest growing one is Austin Mahone.
Austin is a 15 year old singer originally from Texas that started out by making cover songs from popular video clips. The young talent developed the skill to be able to sing on request and is not only entertaining thousands of his fans every month, but acquiring them faster than anyone else out there. Austin Mahone is surely on his way of becoming a very successful singer. Some may say that he is following in the footsteps of Justin Bieber, not only in his dressing style, but also in his personality.
Austin's friends and his fans are backing him up on his every move. Just recently, Austin posted a cover of the Mistletoe song by Justin Bieber and he has already received 2.5 million views on it.
Another interesting personality online that has been capturing a lot of eyes has been Keenan Cahill. Initially Keenan posted a few videos of himself lip-synching in his room. Due to the nature of the videos and his funny personality, the videos quickly went viral. Several weeks down the line, many celebrities were contacting Keenan to create lip-synching videos together.
Just like Austin, Keenan's fans went completely wild when 50 Cent showed up in the video lip-synching side by side with him. Several other celebrities later joined, David Guetta being one of them. While Keenan was lip-synching, David Guetta is mixing behind him.
They go through about 5 or 6 different songs of David Guetta and have a huge mega mix. It's like one big lip-synching contest. Once in a while David Guetta turns around and shows us what song is playing next. This little 3 minute video got them over 25 million views. The crowd just went insane for it and loved every single second.
Later on, Dj Pauly D from Jersey Shore decided to make a joint video with Keenan Cahill. It came out pretty funny and successful, yet stopped just under 5 million views. Later on, he also made a video with Tyra Banks. Although this one hasn't been as successful either, it's definitely attracted lots of media attention.
Many young talents are starting their way out on the internet now as opposed to the traditional ways of Hollywood or record labels. It's interesting to watch how the world evolves, especially in the media and arts industries. Keep an eye out for these two, you're sure to see and hear more about them.
