Mansfield Teen's Viral Video Gets the Attention of Ellen DeGeneres

A viral video of a Mansfield teen apparently has a fan in actress and daytime talk show host Ellen DeGeneres. After seeing the video, DeGeneres invited local resident and Syracuse student Hannah Melton to appear on the April 18 edition of her talk show.

“I love Ellen and was thrilled to be on her show.” said Melton. “It was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I’m grateful to be part of it.” 

During the segment, DeGeneres helped Melton better channel Hannah Montana by giving her a wig, jacket, and dress the character played by Miley Cyrus is known to wear.

Melton then sang "Party in the U.S.A." before the segment ended and went to commercial.
