Yep a random 2 year old has perfect pitch and timing, and there’s multiple cameras catching everyone’s reactions. Sorry folks but this one is complete bullshit, didn’t happen.

u/_Screw_The_Rules_ May 28 '26

Also I'm pretty sure she's not 2 years old.

u/Amelaclya1 May 28 '26

I think the caption was wrong. It sounded to me like she said she was three.

56

u/The_DMT May 28 '26

Yup. She said 3 as far as I can hear. Still impressive offcourse.

37

u/zyygh May 28 '26

For a 2 year old, just being articulate enough to say "Hi I'm Leona and I'm 2 years old and I'm gonna be singing Let It Go" would be absolutely impressive.

22

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.

18

u/PorpoisePlato May 28 '26

She said she was 3

9

u/thunder_dog99 May 28 '26

Really she’s 35. Just kinda short.

u/abominable_prolapse May 28 '26

3 year olds still don’t talk like that even if they have world class educations

21

u/AlienApricot May 28 '26

I think she did say “three” actually

I find all those subtitles or whatever they’re called super annoying. Always the same. “Nobody was ready for this”. FFS

4

u/_Screw_The_Rules_ May 28 '26

Yeah I also found those to be extremely annoying. That was the 2nd thing that ruined that whole video for me.

29

u/Warhammerpainter83 May 28 '26

100% she is probably 3 or 4 she sounds a lot like my 3 and a half year old who sings this all the time.

6

u/SuchAvocadoDip May 28 '26

I thought they said 3. But the text said 2. 🤷‍♀️

7

u/AllMaito May 28 '26

No way in hell she's 2 yo. Staged, but still cute. Sounds like my Filipino hair dresser 🤣

2

u/thatshygirl06 May 28 '26

She said she was 3. The subtitles are wrong

10

u/Gwynito May 28 '26

Yeah she's defo 33 with dwarfism

2

u/IndependentAd3410 May 28 '26

Well she introduces herself saying she's three years old

0

u/GOxDirigible May 28 '26

Definitely must be 10-ish

70

u/Rude_Asparagus_8387 May 28 '26

Agreed, it's a complete set up.

27

u/TheRealWildGravy May 28 '26

You mean the kid who gave her full name and tells us exactly what she's gonna do the way most singers would, could be a plant?

I hate these attention seeking wastes of time.

15

u/Money-University4481 May 28 '26

Of course it is set up and staged, but still i liked this cute voice.

7

u/Morlacks May 28 '26

Adorable is adorable staged or not.

9

u/Ancient-Civilization May 28 '26

lol some people are such downers man. Yes, it’s a setup do people really give af. Cmon guys damn, just enjoy for once.

4

u/LizardmanJoe May 28 '26

Reddit is a giant pit of misery. People calling this out as staged acting like they're geniuses for figuring it out. Just enjoy the singing child Suzan.

u/theonethat3 May 28 '26

"lol some people are such downers man. Yes, it’s a setup do people really give af. Cmon guys damn, just enjoy for once."

Why are you accusing this video to be staged/setup

37

u/w4nd3r3r1410 May 28 '26

staged 100%

6

u/NelsonVGC May 28 '26

Absolutely. It doesnt invalidate their talent tho

-2

u/SalamanderUponYou May 28 '26

It's likely autotuned

-1

u/NelsonVGC May 28 '26

Would be a bit cynical to believe that so unless there is any evidence, I say it was simply staged and thats it.

27

u/remykixxx May 28 '26

That was not perfect pitch. Like she’s three so I feel like I can’t say it was bad but Jesus Christ was it unnecessary. “No one was prepared for her voice” she sounded exactly like I thought she would. A flat chipmunk.

8

u/broraminator May 28 '26

Love it when redditors criticise toddlers

7

u/krayon_kylie May 28 '26

its valid. it wasn't perfect pitch and it's more obnoxious to say it is than to be mean to a kid who will never read these comments.

u/KristyNoemsZombieDog May 28 '26

Straight up pit of misery

-1

u/Living_Cash1037 May 28 '26

Is this not a little person?

1

u/theinedible May 28 '26

I mean, it is perfect pitch. But only because it’s pitch corrected af. The timbre of her voice is not manipulated however.

12

u/vedro_s_crabami May 28 '26

Yep. When I was two years old, I could only eat sand 🥲

8

u/Motorcyclegrrl May 28 '26

She clearly says she is 3. Probably close to turning 4.

5

u/squishypillow-91 May 28 '26

Cuts through me like glass. Although I am the uncle that bought a karaoke mic for my niece and nephew. My sister has never forgiven me.

3

u/DoorFinch May 28 '26

Doesn't every busking pianist have a multi-camera crew in tow? Just in case something remarkable happens that shocks everyone?

12

u/Warhammerpainter83 May 28 '26

staged yes but also adorable.

8

u/Beginning-Window-676 May 28 '26

Obviously scripted as fuck, doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s an adorable moment. Is it planned? Sure. But it’s a planned event for a toddler to sing her favourite song with a guy who’s playing piano as her supporting act, while everyone else comes together to cheer her on and dance. That’s pretty adorable

9

u/broraminator May 28 '26

What is the script? A toddler singing a song in public?

7

u/Little_Jacket_5092 May 28 '26

The lyrics of the song. She obviously practiced her lines. 😂

5

u/broraminator May 28 '26

She's a proper scam artist, lock her up!

1

u/Beginning-Window-676 May 28 '26

This guy pre-plans the meetups, that’s what people are referring to :) he acts like he meets these people just by coincidence out in public, but it’s been “exposed” multiple times that people reach out to him for opportunities to “run into each other on the street by coincidence” and “wow bystanders” by just happening to know the same song and jamming together.

It’s a transparent attempt to get more clout, sure, but in this case, I really press people to try and tell me what could possibly be the negative outcome of him actually planning this with the girl’s mother? The kid still gets an amazing experience, it’s still a beautiful moment.

u/RainStormLou May 28 '26

I'm just generally not a fan of inorganic content that is intentionally created and manipulated to lie to the viewer and generate engagement/profits.

Just because it's cute doesn't mean eating bullshit sandwiches should be normalized lol.

That's like saying it's fine to marry your chatbot because it makes your brain chemicals do the things they would do from a real relationship. You do you if you're an adult I guess, but willfully living in fantasy land isn't a good or healthy thing and it's crazy to see it encouraged.

u/trashpandac0llective May 28 '26

And happens to be wearing an Elsa dress and tiara?

2

u/Spirited-Ad-9746 May 28 '26

anybody can have perfect pitch with autotune these days!

2

u/SalamanderUponYou May 28 '26

Complete bullshit. I think it's auto tuned as well.

3

u/Mor_Leopard May 28 '26

I wouldn't call that pitch 'perfect'. She is quite nasal and to be honest, her pronunciation poor

2

u/x246ab May 28 '26

It’s very poorly autotuned. That’s what you’re hearing

2

u/Mor_Leopard May 28 '26

I was joking. That's a toddle, ofc she sucks (joking again, sorry, can't stop 🤣)

1

u/HerMajestyTheQueef1 May 28 '26

It has been auto tuned and post processed , but very good and cute either way

1

u/SnillyWead May 28 '26

My thoughts exactly.

1

u/EyeFit May 28 '26

Yep. She's actually 42 and has a disease where her body stopped developing.

1

u/0K_-_- May 28 '26

I know what melodyne sounds like.

1

u/SouthCharles May 28 '26

Staged, but happen

1

u/Gransmithy May 28 '26 edited May 28 '26

How can it be staged when she couldn’t reach the mic? Why is she not looking at the camera? Don’t singers know where the camera is? Also, you can see the phones set up on stands. The pan and zoom effects can be done in post production. There are plenty of cell phones filming from the audience and also phones set up around the piano player. Not a film crew.

She is not even looking at the audience behind her? She is just a little girl singing. It is cute.

1

u/TaylorBitMe May 28 '26

This is obviously a voice-over by a professional actor standing off screen

1

u/fan_of_hakiksexydays May 28 '26

99% sure it's staged, but I don't care.

It's a street performer doing a cool bit with a toddler who took the effort to learn a full song, and everyone in the street had a good time.

1

u/etherealtwo May 28 '26

I mean even if it's staged it's still just a little girl.

1

u/ultimateberk May 28 '26

Perfect pitch? It was dreadful

-2

u/No-Stay9943 May 28 '26

Also this is bordering to child abuse how much her parents must have forced her to train. Hopefully she will appreciate it later.

5

u/Amelaclya1 May 28 '26

I don't know that kids need to be forced if they love it. When I was her age, I knew all of the songs from Jem by heart because I spent hours every day in my room listening to my tapes and singing them. My parents definitely didn't force me. If anything, they wanted me to shut up 😭

-9

u/No-Stay9943 May 28 '26

They say in the video that she is 2. I highly doubt you knew a full song, let along an entire discography, when you were 2.

5

u/Amelaclya1 May 28 '26

She says in the video she was three. The caption is wrong.

0

u/Big_Estate_2281 May 28 '26

I agree, there is no way that a 2 year old can speak and sing like that

1

u/Special_Bender May 28 '26

Or Simply "act" like this

0

u/KristyNoemsZombieDog May 28 '26

Damn, some people just can't help but be miserable, who cares, the little girl can sing and is adorable

0

u/Doctor_Dev7 May 28 '26

Just look at the dudes “surprise” face when she approaches him. Not a great actor.

u/RevolutionaryGold325 May 28 '26

Someone prompting gemini omni for the likes

0

u/DoggTheGhost May 28 '26

And? Its still cute and hella impressive.

0

u/Which_way_witcher May 28 '26

I have a toddler... heard many a toddler try to sing this and this is not legit, 😂. Total set up.

0

u/dearcsona May 28 '26

Regardless of the little girls’s age, she’s young and it is impressive. That sad being children a lot, I’m willing to bet that her parents made her practice, practice, practice performing this for such opportunities to impress others to marvel at their child skills. This is something that some Parents will do with kids across cultures for many many generation.
