Appearances
Chance's "Paparazzi" cover video was posted to YouTube, on April 28,
2010, and for almost two weeks the video generated low views. At least
two social websites, GossipBoy.ca and reddit.com, posted video embeds on May 10, 2010. Ellen DeGeneres first saw the video after Chance's brother, Tanner Chance, wrote to her show suggesting she watch it.[5] The video had about 10,000 views when DeGeneres first saw it.[6] While explaining her reasons for naming her new record label eleveneleven,
she listed as one reason the fact that she first saw Chance's
"Paparazzi" cover on May 11, 2010. Also, she states that 11 is Greyson's
soccer jersey number.[7] On the afternoon of May 11, Yahoo! Music reported: "As of this writing, the video has got more than 36,000 views so far, and he's even been invited to perform on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.[3]
On May 12, 2010 Greyson Chance taped an interview and performance of "Paparazzi" for Ellen in Los Angeles.[8] It was broadcast on May 13.[9][10] During the interview, Chance received a phone call from Lady Gaga,[11] who the boy says is his "true inspiration."[12] This first appearance on Ellen
was followed by a second appearance on the show, airing May 26, 2010,
on which Chance performed his original song "Broken Hearts", received a
$10,000 award for winning Ellen's Wonderful Web of Wonderment
contest, a brand new Yamaha piano, and was announced as DeGeneres's
first signed artist to her new recording label eleveneleven.[13] Chance now has many fans on online social sites such as Facebook and Twitter.[14] Greyson Chance also appeared at We Day (also known as Me to We Day 2010) in downtown Toronto at the Air Canada Centre, where he performed "Fire" by Augustana.[15]
