Maria Aragon, a 10-year-old Filipina from Winnipeg, Canada was invited to do a duet number with international singer Lady Gaga.
Aragon had a chance to talk to Lady Gaga live over Winnipeg’s local FM station Hot 103. Gaga said that she was very happy to watch the young Filipina in her own rendition of “Born This Way”.
“Not only do you have such a beautiful voice and you are so joyful to watch but, every once in a while, whether people believe it or not, I have a very bad day. And I was not having such a good day. And when Perez sent me the video of you singing ‘Born This Way’ I was so overjoyed that I began to cry,” Lady Gaga said.
During the conversation, the Grammy Awards winner invited Maria Aragon to sing with her onstage upon learning that Hot 103 will be flying her to Toronto for her concert next month.
“Oh maybe you’re just gonna have to come onstage with me and sing that song. What do you think?”, Lady Gaga said.
Aragon couldn’t stop crying, but she told Lady Gaga how much she loves her music.
Last Thursday, Lady Gaga posted in her Twitter account, which has more than 8 million followers, the pop superstar said: “Can’t stop crying watching this [video]. This is why I make music. She is the future.”
She was referring to a video uploaded by Maria Aragon where she performs the pop singer’s “Born This Way.”
