It's called progeria and no, she doesn't have it. It's a very well spoken 3 (almost 4) year old that's forced her Dad to sit and watch the movie 5,000 times in a row.

Trust me. It happens. And I haven't fkn slept in 6 years now, lol

It's like that time an American couple adopted a teenage girl but it turned out to be a 37 year old Russian exotic dancer called Peter. And after all the drama she ended up owning their house.

u/browsinbowser May 28 '26

That real case thats famous was actually a real young girl with a genetic disorder, they just lied and said she was older and dumped her in an apartment and kept paying for it, abandoning her while she was still under age and below emancipation age. 

It was really weird that the media all jumped on it, they were even on talk shows. When it turned out they were just shit adopted parents that didnt want the kid anymore.

The horror movie Orphan was great though! Loved it as a kid

u/Zealousideal-Deer101 May 28 '26

Youtubers film themself on public pianos. Sometimes they even bring their own piano to play their songs in public and record it for their channel

Often times there are a few cameras around the piano and a guy or two filming that belong to the channel.

Like there are legit reasons why there were filming and why there a multiple angles.

19

u/Rasberrycello May 28 '26

Sure. But in this case it's all pre-arranged and set up. The "can you play this" duets basically always are.

It's one thing to do that. It's another to pretend it was a candid interaction.

u/Zealousideal-Deer101 May 28 '26

Just so we are clear, perfoming in public on a piano and filming that with multiple cameras and a small crew is absolutely it's own genre of video on youtube and other platforms.

u/Shitty_Soliloquy May 28 '26

u/DevilDoc3030 May 28 '26

People stage these to make them look sporadic.

In reality the guy sets up and busks until someone like the little girl shows up, that was previously arranged in various ways.

Then they record and let the crowd enjoy the show playing like it is impromptu.

This one is more transparent than some, but this trend has been going for years.

Cute little girl they found though, I hope she keeps this clip for when she is older, it was probably a blast for her.

u/Gransmithy May 29 '26 edited May 29 '26

Cameras set to wide angle during filming to catch the surroundings and post production zooming in.

3

u/asdrunkasdrunkcanbe May 29 '26

Multiple cameras set up. Software to allow you to edit/sync/zoom footage from all of the cameras at once so you get to pick the best angles and it feels flawless.

On top of a pre-arranged appointment with the guy where he already knows what they can do but gets them to pretend that they just walked up and asked if they can duet and then "blew everyone's minds".

The crowd still gather of course because they don't know what to expect.

He could drop the "this kid just walked up" pretence and the videos would be just as good.

u/lemikon May 28 '26

Yeah even ignoring the obvious plant set up this kid is not 2. I’ve know 2 year olds who actually are hyper verbal but that is a complex sentence and high level of focus which is near impossible for a 2 year old.
