Lady GaGa wowed Internet sensation Greyson Chance on U.S. TV on Thursday when she phoned into talk show Ellen and thanked the pre-teen for turning her Paparazzi song into an online hit.
The youngster was invited onto Ellen after wowing over eight million YouTube.com watchers with home video footage of his church talent show cover of Paparazzi.
But he had no idea he'd be talking to his idol and "inspiration" on the show.
The pop singer revealed she'd seen the video and called her protege "sweet and talented," adding, "I'm so excited that you covered Paparazzi... Just keep following your dreams and work really hard and stay away from girls."
