Dear Sir, Miss Angelina was 9 years old here. Her mom discovered her, when 1,5 years, yes 18 months old, singing Whitney Houston in English. She was born in Oslo, Norway. She discovered Jazz, Blues and Soul at age 2 and started practicing at about 3,5 yo. Since age 4 she went to the academies of music and performing arts in Oslo, later LA for technical advice. She won Norway Gots Talent at age 8 etc. etc. Because of her family she is a VERY international girl. Dad is Swedish, maternal grandma is international acclaimed painter and poet Mery Zamany from Iran whose husband was a Japanese gentlemen and entrepreneur. So she speaks, Norwegian, Swedish, English, Persian Farsi, Japanese and a bit of French and German. Her instruments are the piano and guitar. Since age 8 she worked in gathering money for childrens charity and economical causes. Between 2014 and 2020 she helped gathering and donating 31 Million USD. Sir, my colleagues, co-commenters and friends are trustworthy. We try to help with information, not gushing like teenagers. In the hope of helping you. Sincerely, Elmar from Germany
Time to dive into the Barefoot Princess rabbit hole. She won Norway"s Got Talent in 2014. Start there. (She's eighteen now.) She is stunning every time.
Angelina is mature way beyond her young years but yet she is still a very humble little girl of 9 years old here. Angelina has done cover songs for a few artists so far: From 18 months with a portion of a Whitney Huston song in her crib while holding a microphone almost as big as she was, to now 18 years old with two Peace prize performances one before her teen years and one in her later teen years' , here is a short list of about 80 different artist she has already covered with absolute mastery and even improving on a great majority of them , while still a pre-teen and barely into her teen years as well. : Adele, A'Ha, Alan Walker, Amy Winehouse, Andy Williams, Aretha Franklin, Audrey Hepburn, Avicii , Bill Withers, Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby , Bobby Vinton, Cass Elliot, Charles Aznavour , Charlie Chaplin, Cher, Chris Isaac, Dean Martin, Dinah Washington , Dolly Parton , Doris Day , Duffy, Dusty Springfield , Ella Fitzgerald, Elton John, Elvis, Estelle, Ethel Merman , Etta James, Frank Sinatra, Frankie Valle, Fred Astaire, Freddie Mercury , Gene Autry , Gloria Gaynor , Halsey, Harry Belafonte , Jackson 5, James Brown, Jim Reeves , Jimmie Boyd , John Legend, Josh Groban , Judy Garland , Julie London , Lana Del Rey, Leslie Gore, Lionel Ritchie, Lou Rawls , Louis Armstrong, Mamas and the Papas, Maria Carey , Marshmello, Michael Buble, Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus , Nancy Sinatra, Nancy Wilson , Nat King Cole , Nina Simone, November Ultra, Paloma Faith, Patsy Cline, Perry Como , Queen, Ray Charles, Rihanna , Roberta Flack, Robyn , Ruby & the Romantics, Sam Smith , Screamin' Jay Hawkins , Selena Gomez , Shirley Bassey, Sia , The Beatles , The Righteous Brothers, The Weekend, Tom Jones, Vaughan Monroe , Whitney Houston, Willie Nelson. I may have missed some as her list keeps growing , not to mention her own originals as well. Welcome to her world full of many vocal surprises.
Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world's children had them. Since that time, Angelina always performs barefoot in public.
The right time is when a five year old kid asked you to participate at the biggest talent show. But she had to wait two years because the lowest age has to be seven and when she won the high rated show in a landslide way. Angelina Jordan won NGT a year ago before this performance ✌️❤️😮
Today is December 10, so Angelina will be 19 exactly one month from today, on January 10. In short, Angelina Jordan is simply an amazing person and singer. At the beginning of this video, she respectfully holds up a candle with a photo of Screamin' Jay Hawkins in honor of his original 1956 version of this song. I remember listening to it on a Detroit radio station when it was first released, and I was only 8 years old! This cover, and many other songs from that era covered by Angelina, brought back lots of pleasant memories for me!
Parents of genius children have their hands full just trying to hold them back. It is never about planning a course for them. Often times they are just as amazed as you are. When Angelina first appeared on Norwegian TV, you can see her mom Sara looking as amazed as the rest of us.
Thank you Krizz for hooking onto Angelina ,she is Special and One of a Kind, she also Writes ( since very young age) , Composes,Rearrange music she IS music 🎵 young ,free, humble,beautiful & classy .Sing any Genre change it up a bit still be respectful
Angelina The Barefoot Jazzy Queen with a hypnotic voice. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on RUclips. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on RUclips went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on RUclips. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On RUclips, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”. Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage. On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE. Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine. Now we are waiting for Angelina Jordan Christmas concert, Dec. 14th 2024, El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, CA.
Thank you for your insightful reaction and comments. You are in for a very enjoyable ride. Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest jazz recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which is only her third language! She is a true prodigy. She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, Even though she may not have experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things have changed since she graduated school in the past year. She released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. She performed two shows in Las Vegas in February, and also performed Unchained Melody at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo last December. She performed in Los Angeles in September. She is currently working with Toby Gad, a multi Grammy award-winning producer and composer, and has released two songs. If I were a boy, originally by Beyoncé, and Bad Valentine, which was officially released at her September 20th concert in LA. We believe a world tour could be in the making to coincide with the release of an album. Here is a semi-chronological RUclips playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu Here is an extended playlist of approximately 400 performances compiled and categorized, thanks to mosttodo10. ruclips.net/video/IxPiumYD_r0/видео.htmlsi=anjDyUnXdkPjCEf0 Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may makes many people emotional. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing a special bond. Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. She is a messenger of love, light, and hope, wrapped in a blanket of humility. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world to spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend, now living in LA. (curent 18 Years old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her. The list is almost endless ... She actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach. When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe!

Krizz, binge on Angelina the next few hours and get yourself to Los Angeles by Saturday. Angelina is having a live Christmas concert that you don’t want to miss.
How do you know it is time to hire a full band to record a video for your 9 year old? Angelina was already a national treasure in Norway, after winning Norway's Got Talent at age 8. How does she know how to do this, since she has never been in love? Angelina's love of music goes very deep and she feels the emotion of each song she performs. At the start of the video, she is seen writing her wishes for how she wants to sing the song. A natural arranger.
How do you know when it's time? You let your daughter enter "Norway's Got Talent" at the age of seven, and she just turns eight before winning the final with 46% of all votes. You realise that the adult jazz band she rehearses with rate her as a better jazz singer than most adults they have ever worked with. She gets invited as the solo singer for the Nobel Peace Prize presentation ceremony, at age eight, and nails it. She goes on Scandinavian, German, British, Brazilian and US TV, and also raises millions for children's charities. Then you wait a year, and let her record this at age nine, with her having written most of the arrangement.
You gotta listen to her version of "gloomy sunday" by Billie holiday...its a live performance on Norway's got talent...she was younger than this! It's so good, its eerie
New Channel? Gotta be if you were at 51 subscribers when this first came out. With your kind of background you should have 100s of thousands on into the millions if you are well known and have performed & worked in the industry for awhile. You have doubled that in less than 20 hrs. This is someone special. You knew that right away. Want to blow those numbers up do a deep dive on this girl.❤👣 Want to work with her. She has worked with and is currently working with some of the best in the business. Currently that is a close calibration with Grammy winning songwriter Toby Gad and include Sax great Jimmy Z who toured with Etta James and many others for years and decades. From 6 - 19, Jan 10th today she has wowed! And continues to do so. I would love to see you take the journey with us. You will not be disappointed. The Barefoot Princess of Jazz. ❤👣
Great first reaction to AJ Krizz!!! How do parents know when to get her a live band at the age of 9? When she wins Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8! Quincy Jones compared her to a young Michael Jackson and invited her to sing at his 85th birthday party at the O2 arena when she was 11. Next song suggestion: Her live performance of "Feeling Good" (best known from Nina Simone) at the age of 10. ruclips.net/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/видео.html
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss.
When to get a studio? Oh thats simple. After having her audition for Norways got Talent, the jury had a nervous breakdown live on the show, then they knew😁 This is one year after she won NGT with a landslide victory. She did some studio work in an after school programm before though, for training. She's still very active, next is an xmas concert in LA on saturday.

Krizz, first of all, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" She was 9 doing this. She now lives in Los Angeles with her family and she is originally Norwegian. She is now 18 and will be 19 in January. Krizz, can you imagine what you have missed? If you choose to join all of us from around the world on her musical journey you will be in for a treat which you will not believe. I'm trying to answer all of your questions. The one that really boggles your mind is the one concerning her feelings about love when we know it's impossible for her to have ever experienced a true romantic love at 9 years old!!!! You ready? Here's the answer. She comes from a very loving family and she has been raised with love all around her and she is 'all about love'. Even at 7 years old, what she does is she finds the message of love in a song and relates specifically to it. The particular situations in the storyline of any song will vary and although we understand she could have never experienced those situations SHE DOES UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT LOVE IS and she relates to it soulfully. This song was very unique (to say the least!!!) but when you listen to more of her you will feel the soulfulness and the love that is carried in her voice. She touches people's hearts and everyone (yes, EVERYONE!) is startled when they listen to her for the first time. Goosebumps, tearing up with an urge to cry and finding it difficult to speak during or right after she sings 'for you' are reactions which occur and listeners do not understand what just happened to them. Krizz, the key is her feelings are genuine. You will never find a moment when those feelings are suspect. Never. Let's see, I'll address two more of your questions and then I'll let you go! 🙂 When did her parents recognize she liked to be a singer? Well, this is on You Tube: She was in bed with a microphone singing lines from a Whitney Houston song at, ready for this, at 1 and 1/2 years old! Krizz, the clip is on You Tube! Lastly, you observed she was singing barefoot. Some of her other fans (her 'angels' as we are called) will go into detail about the whole story of "why" and you will be astounded by the story. I would love to see you react to her some more. I'm sure you already picked up on her poise and confidence and any camera she looks at is 'her friend'.
Because she had already won Norway’s Got Talent the year before, that’s how they knew, and she has been performing professionally since she was 8. Not only did she perform this song she arranged it and worked with the musicians to accompany her the way she wanted. She is a prodigy!
You're gonna LOVE following Angelina Jordan. I hope you do more, because she will continually amaze you and give you plenty of material to both enjoy and react to. Looking forward to your next AJ reaction!
She was in the studio at 6. She started singing at 1 1/2. Went to after school for the performance arts. Moved to LA and went to LA school for the performance art,
Absolutely phenomenal rendition from this musical prodigy, Angelina actually arranged this herself at 9 years old, she is paying tribute to the original artist Screaming J Hawkins a blues musician from 1956, Angelina is commanding the performance the band called her Boss,Angelina won Norway Got Talent at 8 years old and at 14 years old signed with Republic Records, AJ has around 200 upgrades of covers and many original songs, Angelina’s fans named her the barefoot Queen of jazz and soul with a thousand different styles and voices, she can sing any genre,Great reaction thanks 🙏
She’s nine years old in this video and she’s 18 years old now 2024. PS She can sing like that because she has listened to the best in jazz since she was about five years old!! Her grandmother was her biggest influence!
Angelina is the best talent on the planet. 200 covers, and her own songs. She has millions of fans, and also a great human being. Enjoy the ride and best wishes to you.
Thanks for your great review. You have no idea of the world you've just entered! BTW....she did the arrangement of the song which is a tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins who wrote the song in 1956 and he did a must see performance of it. That's his photo on the candle she holds during the intro. She turns 19 in a few weeks....January 10. I look forward to seeing more AJ reviews from you!
Check out her studio version of I Have Nothing by Whitney Houston and Suspicious Minds by Elvis Presley. Angelina does have her own originals. I love her original song Diamond. Beware you will get hooked!
For I Put A Spell On You - Angelina was 9 years old - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes "her wishes" and it is read by the recording producer/engineer. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: ruclips.net/video/80f3t3dmBbk/видео.html

Great 1st reaction to Angelina, Krizz. I stumbled on to her almost 7 years ago & was gob smacked. I've listened to her music every day since then. She is my favorite singer of my lifetime. She was protected from the music industry by her family so she could have a relatively "normal" childhood. Now that she is 18 (19 next month), she is breaking out. I liked & subscribed for more Angelina reactions. The only problem with this video was that the volume of her singing was very low. much lower than your voice. Looking forward to your next one!
Awesome reaction and she is not only talented and very intelligent, she is a Class Act! She has over 800 videos, with over 250 different songs, which include almost 20 Originals. Enjoy the ride, it's life changing for the better, a fact, God Bless!
For parents, it is "time to do this" AFTER this little girl had already won Norway Got Talent as she was turning 8 years old, and with a whole country amazed at your little girl's talent!
I am delighted to become a new subscriber. Loved your reaction to this 9 year old wonder from Norway, a truly beautiful person in every way and adored by all her fans...and me, absolutely. She has the gift which you will quickly see and believe as you continue your journey. The word "amazing" will constantly come to mind in later reviews and reactions. Thank you for stumbling on this lovely person whose music and sweetness make my each day.
You have to get an impartial 3rd party to critique your child's talent 👏. Or a 4th or 5th. If they have professional background/expertise and can be trusted to frank and earnest, and don't take $$ up front, and they have the same concensus, then that's the time to get a demo.😂
BTW This is her arrangement. She's not accidentally waving her pen, she's orchestrating the thing. And what a voice, huh? She might be the best Ella Fitgerald cover I've ever heard. And yess. she still sings as a teen.
Krizz - thanks for checking out one of the tracks that originally drew many people to her music - check out this new jazz noir version of her recent release with Toby Gad - Bad Valentine ruclips.net/video/vN3YzuX1kkY/видео.htmlsi=JBkCsSSyWGoYFBDA

Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina. Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me. Let’s analyze the video: 1st you see how small and cute she is. 2nd you see she is barefoot (story below) 3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song. 4th the band leader taking note of the changes. 5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it. 6th the old soul in her voice. She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talked with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
Are you maybe willing to answer a question? If a single/album gets gold/platinum - who all gets this stuff for their wall of fame? Is it just one item or one for the singer, one for the producer? Background: I'm trying to make sense of pictures she posted, trying to figure out what kind of location that is, displaying platinum albums from several competing labels.
*Why Angelina always performs barefoot* At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina replied, whenever she goes on stage to sing, she will be barefoot to remind her of her new friend, and all other children like her. Angelina never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins". Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
How do her parents know when to book a band and a studio? Simple. She tells them. But if you want to work with her, there's a whole queue of people and already she has worked with some of the greats!
Great You better turn up the volume for your audience too. I understand that you want to keep something that precious for yourself😆, but it's my understanding that it's not going to be particularly good for business. Humourous greetings from Germany/ Humorvolle Grüße aus Deutschland

Angelina Jordan Astar translated literally means messenger of God descends or flows from the lights or heavens. She is a musical genius, a child of the Light, and a Cosmic Avatar as described by American Indian Shaman Albert Ledesma, when he first saw her in this video by the gestures she was making. If you don’t know what a Cosmic Avatar is, please look it up, as Jordan is not just another talented child singer. There is a very specific reason why she sings barefoot, and it’s part of her identity. She even wrote a song about it called Princess of Ruins. You have stepped into a rabbit hole from which there is no escape, my friend, as there is not another human being ( if in fact she is one lol! ) like Angelina Jordan Astar on this planet! Have a nice ride. By the way, Jordan taught herself how to sing by watching RUclips videos of the classic jazz artists such as Billie Holliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James etc starting at age three with her grandma Mery. She trained her voice and breath control 4-6 hours a day every day, 52 weeks a year, and still does. She entered an after school musical program where she was taught how to read, deconstruct and rearrange music and to play the piano and the guitar. She has been doing all her own vocal arrangements since she was 5 years old. She won Norway’s Got Talent after just turning 8, and proceeded to put the 80k dollars in winnings in a trust to be distributed to children’s charities upon her 18th birthday, which was this past January 10th 2024. Follow her every two years, 8-10-14-16-18 and you’ll be able to see the progression of her voice as she grows and matures over the years. The angels will help you select the best songs from each age period that best exemplify her talent at that particular stage of her life.
Dear Sir, Miss Angelina was 9 years old here. Her mom discovered her, when 1,5 years, yes 18 months old, singing Whitney Houston in English. She was born in Oslo, Norway. She discovered Jazz, Blues and Soul at age 2 and started practicing at about 3,5 yo. Since age 4 she went to the academies of music and performing arts in Oslo, later LA for technical advice. She won Norway Gots Talent at age 8 etc. etc.
Because of her family she is a VERY international girl. Dad is Swedish, maternal grandma is international acclaimed painter and poet Mery Zamany from Iran whose husband was a Japanese gentlemen and entrepreneur. So she speaks, Norwegian, Swedish, English, Persian Farsi, Japanese and a bit of French and German. Her instruments are the piano and guitar.
Since age 8 she worked in gathering money for childrens charity and economical causes. Between 2014 and 2020 she helped gathering and donating 31 Million USD.
Sir, my colleagues, co-commenters and friends are trustworthy. We try to help with information, not gushing like teenagers.
In the hope of helping you.
Sincerely, Elmar from Germany
And the kicker is she wrote the arrangement !!
Time to dive into the Barefoot Princess rabbit hole. She won Norway"s Got Talent in 2014. Start there. (She's eighteen now.) She is stunning every time.
Angelina is mature way beyond her young years but yet she is still a very humble little girl of 9 years old here.
Angelina has done cover songs for a few artists so far: From 18 months with a portion of a Whitney Huston song in her crib while holding a microphone almost as big as she was, to now 18 years old with two Peace prize performances one before her teen years and one in her later teen years' , here is a short list of about 80 different artist she has already covered with absolute mastery and even improving on a great majority of them , while still a pre-teen and barely into her teen years as well. :
Adele, A'Ha, Alan Walker, Amy Winehouse, Andy Williams, Aretha Franklin, Audrey Hepburn, Avicii , Bill Withers, Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby , Bobby Vinton, Cass Elliot, Charles Aznavour , Charlie Chaplin, Cher, Chris Isaac, Dean Martin, Dinah Washington , Dolly Parton , Doris Day , Duffy, Dusty Springfield , Ella Fitzgerald, Elton John, Elvis, Estelle, Ethel Merman , Etta James, Frank Sinatra, Frankie Valle, Fred Astaire, Freddie Mercury , Gene Autry , Gloria Gaynor , Halsey, Harry Belafonte , Jackson 5, James Brown, Jim Reeves , Jimmie Boyd , John Legend, Josh Groban , Judy Garland , Julie London , Lana Del Rey, Leslie Gore, Lionel Ritchie, Lou Rawls , Louis Armstrong, Mamas and the Papas, Maria Carey , Marshmello, Michael Buble, Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus , Nancy Sinatra, Nancy Wilson , Nat King Cole , Nina Simone, November Ultra, Paloma Faith, Patsy Cline, Perry Como , Queen, Ray Charles, Rihanna , Roberta Flack, Robyn , Ruby & the Romantics, Sam Smith , Screamin' Jay Hawkins , Selena Gomez , Shirley Bassey, Sia , The Beatles , The Righteous Brothers, The Weekend, Tom Jones, Vaughan Monroe , Whitney Houston, Willie Nelson.
I may have missed some as her list keeps growing , not to mention her own originals as well. Welcome to her world full of many vocal surprises.
Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world's children had them. Since that time, Angelina always performs barefoot in public.
The right time is when a five year old kid asked you to participate at the biggest talent show. But she had to wait two years because the lowest age has to be seven and when she won the high rated show in a landslide way. Angelina Jordan won NGT a year ago before this performance ✌️❤️😮
Today is December 10, so Angelina will be 19 exactly one month from today, on January 10. In short, Angelina Jordan is simply an amazing person and singer. At the beginning of this video, she respectfully holds up a candle with a photo of Screamin' Jay Hawkins in honor of his original 1956 version of this song. I remember listening to it on a Detroit radio station when it was first released, and I was only 8 years old! This cover, and many other songs from that era covered by Angelina, brought back lots of pleasant memories for me!
Parents of genius children have their hands full just trying to hold them back. It is never about planning a course for them. Often times they are just as amazed as you are. When Angelina first appeared on Norwegian TV, you can see her mom Sara looking as amazed as the rest of us.
Yes, and she later told an interviewer that she realized then and there that she had lost her little girl to the world. 😎
Thank you Krizz for hooking onto Angelina ,she is Special and One of a Kind, she also Writes ( since very young age) , Composes,Rearrange music she IS music 🎵 young ,free, humble,beautiful & classy .Sing any Genre change it up a bit still be respectful
Angelina The Barefoot Jazzy Queen with a hypnotic voice.
Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on RUclips. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz.
Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate.
At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on RUclips went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on RUclips. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On RUclips, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage.
On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE.
Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine.
Now we are waiting for Angelina Jordan Christmas concert, Dec. 14th 2024, El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, CA.
Thank you for your insightful reaction and comments. You are in for a very enjoyable ride.
Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest jazz recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which is only her third language! She is a true prodigy.
She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, Even though she may not have experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things have changed since she graduated school in the past year. She released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. She performed two shows in Las Vegas in February, and also performed Unchained Melody at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo last December. She performed in Los Angeles in September. She is currently working with Toby Gad, a multi Grammy award-winning producer and composer, and has released two songs. If I were a boy, originally by Beyoncé, and Bad Valentine, which was officially released at her September 20th concert in LA. We believe a world tour could be in the making to coincide with the release of an album.
Here is a semi-chronological RUclips playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu

Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may makes many people emotional. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing a special bond.
Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. She is a messenger of love, light, and hope, wrapped in a blanket of humility. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world to spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend, now living in LA. (curent 18 Years old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts.
Signed record deal at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her. The list is almost endless ... She actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach. When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe!
Angelina at age nine, re-wrote this song the way she hears it in her mind. She changes many lyrics to make them age appropriate.
She started singing at one and a half years old and she started with jazz,, she plays about four musical instruments and writes music,, English is not her native language, her first studio recording was at six years old,, she wrote a book about why she sings barefoot,, she won Norway got talent at 7-8 years old and was on American got talent at 13 years old,, she has done hundreds of covers,, she will be 19 years old this January 10, 2025,, there is a Documentary by,, " Wrapped in a warm blanket "" younger years,, it shows her singing a Whitney Houston song at one and a half years old,, she is from Norway and has beautiful brown eyes and has moved to California and she started wearing blue contacts which is also beautiful,, I Enjoyed your reaction,, please do more, and of her youngest years,, have fun !!
Krizz, binge on Angelina the next few hours and get yourself to Los Angeles by Saturday. Angelina is having a live Christmas concert that you don’t want to miss.
How do you know it is time to hire a full band to record a video for your 9 year old? Angelina was already a national treasure in Norway, after winning Norway's Got Talent at age 8.
How does she know how to do this, since she has never been in love? Angelina's love of music goes very deep and she feels the emotion of each song she performs. At the start of the video, she is seen writing her wishes for how she wants to sing the song. A natural arranger.
How do you know when it's time? You let your daughter enter "Norway's Got Talent" at the age of seven, and she just turns eight before winning the final with 46% of all votes. You realise that the adult jazz band she rehearses with rate her as a better jazz singer than most adults they have ever worked with. She gets invited as the solo singer for the Nobel Peace Prize presentation ceremony, at age eight, and nails it. She goes on Scandinavian, German, British, Brazilian and US TV, and also raises millions for children's charities. Then you wait a year, and let her record this at age nine, with her having written most of the arrangement.
Amen
You gotta listen to her version of "gloomy sunday" by Billie holiday...its a live performance on Norway's got talent...she was younger than this! It's so good, its eerie
Hmmm...you got the right idea about the weather and the day, but her Billie Holiday audition on NGT was actually "Gloomy Sunday." 💕🙂
New Channel? Gotta be if you were at 51 subscribers when this first came out. With your kind of background you should have 100s of thousands on into the millions if you are well known and have performed & worked in the industry for awhile. You have doubled that in less than 20 hrs. This is someone special. You knew that right away. Want to blow those numbers up do a deep dive on this girl.❤👣
Want to work with her. She has worked with and is currently working with some of the best in the business. Currently that is a close calibration with Grammy winning songwriter Toby Gad and include Sax great Jimmy Z who toured with Etta James and many others for years and decades. From 6 - 19, Jan 10th today she has wowed! And continues to do so. I would love to see you take the journey with us. You will not be disappointed. The Barefoot Princess of Jazz. ❤👣
Great first reaction to AJ Krizz!!! How do parents know when to get her a live band at the age of 9? When she wins Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8!
Quincy Jones compared her to a young Michael Jackson and invited her to sing at his 85th birthday party at the O2 arena when she was 11.
Next song suggestion: Her live performance of "Feeling Good" (best known from Nina Simone) at the age of 10. ruclips.net/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/видео.html
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice.
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss.
9yr 2months--She had already won Norway Got Talent at 7/8.
The first time Angelina first studio recording session at the age of 6yrs. doing a cover of a Tom Jones Song I who have nothing.
It is not a Tom Jones song, It is a Shirley Bassey cover...
When to get a studio? Oh thats simple. After having her audition for Norways got Talent, the jury had a nervous breakdown live on the show, then they knew😁
This is one year after she won NGT with a landslide victory. She did some studio work in an after school programm before though, for training.
She's still very active, next is an xmas concert in LA on saturday.

She truly is one in a Billion ( + ) , 10 years on her Jazzy version of self penned " Bad Valentine " with the legendary Toby Gadd, if as GOOD as it gets in any genre!
Please Welcome to the Stage - Miss. Angelina Jordan - Thee Barefoot Music Princess of Oslo - The Emerald Pearl of Norway... OMG!
Angelina is why I even watch reaction videos. Angelina is the best. subscribe.
This is Angelina Jordan’s tribute to screaming J Hopkins song. She wrote the arrangement for the studio band very talented prodigy.
Krizz, first of all, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" She was 9 doing this. She now lives in Los Angeles with her family and she is originally Norwegian. She is now 18 and will be 19 in January. Krizz, can you imagine what you have missed? If you choose to join all of us from around the world on her musical journey you will be in for a treat which you will not believe.
I'm trying to answer all of your questions. The one that really boggles your mind is the one concerning her feelings about love when we know it's impossible for her to have ever experienced a true romantic love at 9 years old!!!! You ready? Here's the answer. She comes from a very loving family and she has been raised with love all around her and she is 'all about love'. Even at 7 years old, what she does is she finds the message of love in a song and relates specifically to it. The particular situations in the storyline of any song will vary and although we understand she could have never experienced those situations SHE DOES UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT LOVE IS and she relates to it soulfully. This song was very unique (to say the least!!!) but when you listen to more of her you will feel the soulfulness and the love that is carried in her voice. She touches people's hearts and everyone (yes, EVERYONE!) is startled when they listen to her for the first time. Goosebumps, tearing up with an urge to cry and finding it difficult to speak during or right after she sings 'for you' are reactions which occur and listeners do not understand what just happened to them. Krizz, the key is her feelings are genuine. You will never find a moment when those feelings are suspect. Never.
Let's see, I'll address two more of your questions and then I'll let you go! 🙂 When did her parents recognize she liked to be a singer? Well, this is on You Tube: She was in bed with a microphone singing lines from a Whitney Houston song at, ready for this, at 1 and 1/2 years old! Krizz, the clip is on You Tube! Lastly, you observed she was singing barefoot. Some of her other fans (her 'angels' as we are called) will go into detail about the whole story of "why" and you will be astounded by the story.
I would love to see you react to her some more. I'm sure you already picked up on her poise and confidence and any camera she looks at is 'her friend'.
Because she had already won Norway’s Got Talent the year before, that’s how they knew, and she has been performing professionally since she was 8.
Not only did she perform this song she arranged it and worked with the musicians to accompany her the way she wanted. She is a prodigy!
The Sample was used by Notorious B.I.G. in "Kick in the Door" / Life after Death, 1997. Musical Genius like we have here ❤😇
You're gonna LOVE following Angelina Jordan. I hope you do more, because she will continually amaze you and give you plenty of material to both enjoy and react to. Looking forward to your next AJ reaction!
This girl is The Real Deal my friend. The Real Deal.
And it's her arrangement!!!
She was in the studio at 6. She started singing at 1 1/2. Went to after school for the performance arts. Moved to LA and went to LA school for the performance art,
Welcome to the journey. Here for you to experience it all. Each performance is more mind blowing than the last.
Welcome to her journey! You'll never regret it!🙌🏻❤️
👍More Angelina, please.
Recording since she was 6 and doing her thing since she was 18 months old.
.
Absolutely phenomenal rendition from this musical prodigy, Angelina actually arranged this herself at 9 years old, she is paying tribute to the original artist Screaming J Hawkins a blues musician from 1956, Angelina is commanding the performance the band called her Boss,Angelina won Norway Got Talent at 8 years old and at 14 years old signed with Republic Records, AJ has around 200 upgrades of covers and many original songs, Angelina’s fans named her the barefoot Queen of jazz and soul with a thousand different styles and voices, she can sing any genre,Great reaction thanks 🙏
I'm really glad you've discovered Angelina Jordan! One of my favorite reactors reacting to my favorite singer....what could be better? 😃
She’s nine years old in this video and she’s 18 years old now 2024. PS She can sing like that because she has listened to the best in jazz since she was about five years old!! Her grandmother was her biggest influence!
Angelina is the best talent on the planet. 200 covers, and her own songs. She has millions of fans, and also a great human being. Enjoy the ride and best wishes to you.
Pure musical magic !!!
Welcome to the world of Angelina. 😊 Thank you for great reaction.
Sub for Angelina. 😊😊😊
Thanks for your great review. You have no idea of the world you've just entered! BTW....she did the arrangement of the song which is a tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins who wrote the song in 1956 and he did a must see performance of it. That's his photo on the candle she holds during the intro. She turns 19 in a few weeks....January 10. I look forward to seeing more AJ reviews from you!
Welcome to our magical world ❤❤❤
Check out her studio version of I Have Nothing by Whitney Houston and Suspicious Minds by Elvis Presley. Angelina does have her own originals. I love her original song Diamond. Beware you will get hooked!
You've got to listen to her newest song Bad Valentine!!! She has grown into a beautiful woman and incredible singer!!!!
For I Put A Spell On You - Angelina was 9 years old - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes "her wishes" and it is read by the recording producer/engineer. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: ruclips.net/video/80f3t3dmBbk/видео.html
Thank you Krizz ,Welcome to AJ's world 9 years 2 months going on 40 years old, this is no normal child ,original artist Screaming J Hawkins "I put a spell on you" in the 50's covered by many artists, This is Angelina's version her own arrangement based on watching his performance on you tube. you see he's face on the candle she is holding at the beginning of the video, also the notes she was writing at the beginning given to the band leader these were her last minute changes to the arrangement her wishes she called them, the band called her affectionally the boss. First recorded at 18 months old singing a line from a Whitney song in her crib, her Granma Mery played jazz around the house at 2/ 3 years old she started scouring you tube for all the jazz greats , she taught herself to sing her teachers and family decided not to mess with what she was doing vocally herself so has never had a vocal coach by 5 years old she was asking her mom Sara to sign her up for a talent show she had to wait until she was 7 years old , her first performance was "Gloomy Sunday" by Billie Holiday it went viral and the legend was born our mini jazz queen she went on to win the show, with an A cappella version of another Billie song "I am a fool to want you", "Bang Bang" Nancy Sinatra, version. And the final "Summer Time " Louis Armstrong and Ella version, she was 8 years old when she won,comments from the judges "you are an old soul who has lived many lives" "you are music" "you are born to sing , we have a star" agents were flying from all over the world to sign her up , her family turned them all down , so she could have a normal childhood as best they could , they took her around the world on school breaks where she sang mainly for children charities and helped raise millions .She is about to turn 19 in January, Known as the girl with a thousand voices , If you want to hear a song listen to anyone if you want to feel a song listen to AJ . jazz and blues are in her bones but she can sing anything across multiple genres and styles, Us her angels she calls us adore AJ she is a beautiful soul inside and out . The other angels will bombard you with info.💜👣😇
When he or she are ready. Gut feel.
AN OLD SOUL 😮
Hello from Norway. Today I gave you a like and a sub. I want to follow you on your Angelina Jordan-journey. It will be fun!
Great 1st reaction to Angelina, Krizz. I stumbled on to her almost 7 years ago & was gob smacked. I've listened to her music every day since then. She is my favorite singer of my lifetime. She was protected from the music industry by her family so she could have a relatively "normal" childhood. Now that she is 18 (19 next month), she is breaking out. I liked & subscribed for more Angelina reactions. The only problem with this video was that the volume of her singing was very low. much lower than your voice. Looking forward to your next one!
Both song and comments were low volume for me. Sing was lower.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Gotta turn that shit up, Krizz! 🙏
Awesome reaction and she is not only talented and very intelligent, she is a Class Act! She has over 800 videos, with over 250 different songs, which include almost 20 Originals. Enjoy the ride, it's life changing for the better, a fact, God Bless!
👍🏼🎼🤗
For parents, it is "time to do this" AFTER this little girl had already won Norway Got Talent as she was turning 8 years old, and with a whole country amazed at your little girl's talent!
I am delighted to become a new subscriber. Loved your reaction to this 9 year old wonder from Norway, a truly beautiful person in every way and adored by all her fans...and me, absolutely. She has the gift which you will quickly see and believe as you continue your journey. The word "amazing" will constantly come to mind in later reviews and reactions. Thank you for stumbling on this lovely person whose music and sweetness make my each day.
You have to get an impartial 3rd party to critique your child's talent 👏. Or a 4th or 5th. If they have professional background/expertise and can be trusted to frank and earnest, and don't take $$ up front, and they have the same concensus, then that's the time to get a demo.😂
It's time when they decide it's time and you actually believe them, which is different from wanting to - you know kids play, and that's cool. Cheers.
This God Given Talent! Let’s hope she does good with what she was born with
Great! That's a REACTOR...✒️...go with the Angels...Greatings from Germany 👌
BTW This is her arrangement. She's not accidentally waving her pen, she's orchestrating the thing. And what a voice, huh? She might be the best Ella Fitgerald cover I've ever heard. And yess. she still sings as a teen.
Krizz - thanks for checking out one of the tracks that originally drew many people to her music - check out this new jazz noir version of her recent release with Toby Gad - Bad Valentine ruclips.net/video/vN3YzuX1kkY/видео.htmlsi=JBkCsSSyWGoYFBDA
Krizz - and for a feel of the adult Angelina - check out her most recent release Bad Valentine live from a show in Glendale, Ca in September - just bringin it!!🔥🔥 ruclips.net/video/S030JbpJz1w/видео.htmlsi=g_dTMnvlD3Z6VTrf
Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina.
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
Let’s analyze the video:
1st you see how small and cute she is.
2nd you see she is barefoot (story below)
3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song.
4th the band leader taking note of the changes.
5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it.
6th the old soul in her voice.
She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talked with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
She arranged all of this herself......they do what she says not the other way around !!!!
OOHHH, I forgot, she arranges her songs since age 7, as she did here.
EfG
9 years old here, she turns 19 in January. The video was released a year or so after she recorded it.
Angelina Jordan - Gloomy Sunday audition - Norway's Got Talent- English subtitles aged 7/8 (she won the show) ruclips.net/video/d3gSho9yf88/видео.html
A Star is Born. She’s still going strong. She’s older now. Check it out.
Are you maybe willing to answer a question? If a single/album gets gold/platinum - who all gets this stuff for their wall of fame? Is it just one item or one for the singer, one for the producer? Background: I'm trying to make sense of pictures she posted, trying to figure out what kind of location that is, displaying platinum albums from several competing labels.
She`s 18 now !
You ani't seen nothin yet. Try Bad Valentine jazz version with Toby Gad. It. Is fire!
AFTER SHE WINS NORWAY'S GOT TALENT AT 7 YEARS OLD
*Why Angelina always performs barefoot*
At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes.
Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina replied, whenever she goes on stage to sing, she will be barefoot to remind her of her new friend, and all other children like her.
Angelina never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins".
Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
You gotta start turning your volume up we can handle here
Here her sing gloomy Sunday Angelina Jordan she was 7 years old and I who have nothing she was 6 years old
How do her parents know when to book a band and a studio? Simple. She tells them. But if you want to work with her, there's a whole queue of people and already she has worked with some of the greats!
Great You better turn up the volume for your audience too. I understand that you want to keep something that precious for yourself😆, but it's my understanding that it's not going to be particularly good for business. Humourous greetings from Germany/ Humorvolle Grüße aus Deutschland

Angelina Jordan Astar translated literally means messenger of God descends or flows from the lights or heavens. She is a musical genius, a child of the Light, and a Cosmic Avatar as described by American Indian Shaman Albert Ledesma, when he first saw her in this video by the gestures she was making. If you don’t know what a Cosmic Avatar is, please look it up, as Jordan is not just another talented child singer. There is a very specific reason why she sings barefoot, and it’s part of her identity. She even wrote a song about it called Princess of Ruins. You have stepped into a rabbit hole from which there is no escape, my friend, as there is not another human being ( if in fact she is one lol! ) like Angelina Jordan Astar on this planet! Have a nice ride.
By the way, Jordan taught herself how to sing by watching RUclips videos of the classic jazz artists such as Billie Holliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James etc starting at age three with her grandma Mery. She trained her voice and breath control 4-6 hours a day every day, 52 weeks a year, and still does. She entered an after school musical program where she was taught how to read, deconstruct and rearrange music and to play the piano and the guitar. She has been doing all her own vocal arrangements since she was 5 years old. She won Norway’s Got Talent after just turning 8, and proceeded to put the 80k dollars in winnings in a trust to be distributed to children’s charities upon her 18th birthday, which was this past January 10th 2024.
Follow her every two years, 8-10-14-16-18 and you’ll be able to see the progression of her voice as she grows and matures over the years. The angels will help you select the best songs from each age period that best exemplify her talent at that particular stage of her life.
I left out 12, a very important year. I’m old and senile, what can I say lol!
