Teenage Dream comes true when Katy Perry spots Keenan’s lip-synching

Unknown from Illinois shows how to make Teenage Dream come true.

Since Susan Boyle astounded society’s preconceptions with “I Dreamed a Dream”, a goofy 19 year old from Illinois USA, who is 4 foot 2 in height as a result of a rare genetic disorder, has won 437 million fans since he lip-synched Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” on his iMac.

Self-producing

Less than two years ago, aged 17, Keenan opened his iMac and started self-producing highly entertaining videos of himself lip-synching to the top 40 biggest hits. While throwing the moves, Keenan works in a tweak of his spectacles, which could become his signature twerk.

Following his existing US singing successes, Keenan is releasing his first single “Closer” (ft Shy and DRS) in the UK on 19th May.

Now, with over 437 million hits on his Youtube Channel worldwide, Keenan recently performed at ABC’s American Music Awards with LMFAO, Justin Bieber, Will.i.am and David Hassellhoff.

Recorded

In USA Keenan is releasing his third single “Back To Us”, which he recorded with Latin Pop Artist Mayra Veronica. He already has two singles: “Hands Up” with UK sister duo Electrovamp, then “Tonight” with French DJ Oriska.

Despite being born with a rare genetic disorder, which meant a bone marrow transplant at the age of one followed by many operations to relieve pressure, Keenan has worked with WWE star The Miz, rapper 50 Cent, Maroon 5, Jersey Shore’s Paul DelVecchio, Cody Simpson, Jason Derulo, Big Time Rush, Glee!, The Wanted, LMFAO, Justin Bieber and Xuso Jones.

Lovably Goofy

Filmed on his iMac, his lovably goofy take on “Teenage Dream” made its way to Katy Perry herself but it was his “Down On Me” video with hip-hop artist 50 Cent which would make Keenan a household name.

Keenan has since worked with David Guetta and DJ Pauly D and made a winningly funny appearance on E!’s “Chelsea Lately.” An ability to entertain has made Keenan hot property for viral campaigns such as for the San Francisco Giants, the NBA’s New York Knicks, Smartwater (starring Jennifer Aniston) and Wrigley Gum (with Serenading Unicorn). Keenan has partnered with Paramount Pictures to promote the “Footloose” movie making a video with Julianne Hough.

Keenan’s first UK single “Closer” is released on 19th May featuring DRS and Shy.
