MINNEAPOLIS (KMSP) -
She just 12-years-old, but a Minneapolis singer has a talent that has already caught the attention of the mother who raised the King of Pop — and she’s now traveling to perform in a 3-day tribute to the legend.
“I’m a huge Michael Jackson fan,” Kalayah Jones told Fox 9 News.
Jones has been dancing since she was a baby, but she also sings and raps. For the past two years, she’s made a number of local appearances — including performing at St. Paul’s Rondo Days. Now, she’ll be taking her show on the road to celebrate Michael Jackson’s life at an event hosted by the star’s mother.
“In 1969, introduced to the industry, dropping all types of singles that came up instantly — like ‘A-B-C,’” she performed.
Her youthful talent caught Katherine Jackson’s eye as she practiced dedicating her moves and voice to the pop icon. After spotting her on YouTube, the music mogul’s mom invited Jones to come to his hometown and bring some Twin Cities love to the 5th annual tribute.
“I represent the Twin Cities!” Jones exclaimed. “Minnesota, baby!”
Jones’ mother is a strong sideline supporter. She’s takes her daughter to perform at talent shows, events and award shows all year round.
