    Check out this little fella!

    The little drummer boy


    Posted Mon 17 May 2010 13:11 BST by News Editor in
    Reality TV shows may have opened up the world of entertainment to huge, undiscovered sections of the world's population, but they've got nothing on YouTube. Barely a week goes by without a new star emerging from nowhere to become an overnight online sensation.

    Last week, it was 12-year-old Oklahoman piano protégé Greyson Chance who won the hearts of the world, serenading his fellow school children with a compelling version of Lady Gaga's ‘Paparazzi' one day and speaking to the pop superstar herself on national TV the next.

    But it looks as though even he could be surpassed this week. Because the latest candidate for international adoration is Howard Wong, aged three. Yes, Howard is barely out of nappies, let alone in short trousers. But that hasn't stopped him causing a global stampede to check out his drumming skills, reportedly filmed in Penang, Malaysia.

    Almost 3,750,000 people have watched him gleefully powerhouse his way through the Joan Jett classic ‘I Hate Myself For Loving You' in a Santa hat, as a roomful of people look on open-mouthed. Little else is known about Howard, although there is other footage of him playing in a band and, most amazingly, singing The Beatles' ‘Hey Jude'. Macca had better watch his back!

    Good thing about that is when he makes a mistake he just laughs and ploughs on, obviously enjoys doing it.

    Yes he's brilliant for his age.

    Very hard to teach someone so young basic rhythm and he certainly has good rhythm.

    They say some people are born with a rare talent when it comes to playing a musical instrument and at 3 years old he certainly shows great promise.
