Rosie McClelland Talks Life After Ellen DeGeneres and Her Singing Career
Rosie McClelland rose to fame when she was 5-years-old alongside her older cousin Sophia Grace appearing on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Rosie sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about her career and recording new music.
Rosie says her time on "Ellen" was a dream come true and gave her a good glimpse of what it's like to be in the spotlight. She says the biggest thing she learned on the show was to be more vocal and not as shy while performing. She also admits her favorite part of her time on "Ellen" was being slimed during one of their skits.
Rosie also discusses her rise as a social media star and the types of videos she likes to release and says her fans like them because they are "not too boring." The talented 11-year-old is currently in Los Angeles to record new music that will be out in the summertime.
