Culture Buzz Just because you're a 3-year-old genius doesn't mean you can't tell America you need to take a dump.
Ten-year-old Heather Russell has been signed by Simon Cowell on the strength of this video. She certainly seems to be very emotional about something or other. And she's got a hell of a set of pipes. What more do you need?
Meet 8-Year-old Autumn de Forest – the art prodigy who’s made hundreds of thousands of dollars selling her art. Her stuff is awesome! Check out more of her work here.
Music Buzz Daniel Grest sings Who's Loving You by the Jackson 5. Is he the next Justin Bieber? [Ed. note: He certainly has an original haircut, so that's one requirement out of the way.] (Via Rickey.org)
These cute kids are really good and make me feel less able. [“Cute” in this case, meaning “Way, way too good for their age.” Stop being so damn good, overachieving family. You're making us all look bad]
Six-month-old Xavier King declares crawling is for losers. His favorite toy? A Godzilla action figure.
Mini Daddy may well be the new best thing, but he is standing on the shoulders of giants. This, ladies and gentlemen, is Zanger Bob in 2006. Relive the glory that is his groundbreaking music as if for the first time. (Via.)
There must be something in the water. Five-year-old 'Jonah Rocks' met the devil on 'the crossroads' at the tender age of 2. OK, OK, he's just an amazing talent, and I'm extremely jealous. Watch him tear up System of a Down's 'Toxicity' (breakdown around 2:42 in). Fame and fortune await this kid.
Culture Buzz Karina Oakley, genius toddler, has an IQ of 160, which is the same as Stephen Hawking's. The 2-year-old took the Mensa test after her mom saw a show about child geniuses, and she scored off the charts. She can remember foreign words and phrases after hearing them just once, and she seems to have a gift for lateral thinking as well: When asked what was missing from a picture of a broken teapot, she said: “It's missing a handle - but also a picnic blanket and cupcakes.” Cute!!!
It's child prodigy week on Twitter - (apparently thanks to Ashton Kutcher). Help out and add some other child prodigy videos below so we can make this a collection. Akiane Kramarik is a 13-year-old “genius” who paints better than you do. Don't feel bad, though - she has God in her corner, which is kind of cheating, IMO.
