Reincarnation belief... is rediscovered....

God given talent and Anthony you ROCK!!!!!!

Continue to have fun Anthony.

Ellen.... hopefully Anthony will keep on sharing his gift with the world. Music to my ears ! :}

...watched the show and loved HIM!!!!...reminded me of my son, Gino Barletta, who grew up(in rural PA.) with a passionate TALENT for voice, continues today, at 20years old in LA., aspiring a career in the MUSIC INDUSTRY and VOICE!!! I cried, hoping all the best happens for Anthony, as I pray it happens for Gino, too!!!!....maybe they should team up on the show and sing together!!!!!!!.....love you ELLEN!!!!...bb....ps.the two of them would be amazing together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ellen,
When I heard Anthony Gargiula singing, I was blown away. My spouse and I sat listening to him sing and he couldn't believe Anthony was only 8 yrs. old. That boy, he's a career waiting to happen and I know you'll do it for him. He's possibly the politest child guest I've seen on your show in a long time.
By the way, Stryker...he's fantastic!
Love you Ellen, always have.

hi u are so good at singing i got 14 videos on youtube to look at them go on www.youtube.ocm/kidrockjt

Thanks so much

hi Ellen, I'm writing to you from Dartmouth Nova Scotia Canada. I never miss your show. I just love you. Thanks for showing us this young boy. He is terrific&will no doubt do great. I hope you have a Merry Xmas& keep doing what you do..take care&all the best...a fan from Canada :)

Hi Ellen! If it wasn't for you heart and generosity some of these talented kids would fall by the wayside! Anthony is a really great kid and soooo talented, I hope he goes far in his personal and professional life.

Thank you Ellen for being the great person that you are, I look forward to your show every day. I am 74 years old (young) have watched you since the day you started on TV, many years ago and will continue. Oprah doesn't hold a candle to you and the good you do!!!!!

Love You, Dee


WOW, What a talented young man! He's got what it takes to be a star and I truly hope someone in the business takes him under their wing and signs him up for a contract etc... Most of all I hope and pray his parents keep an eye on him. Often greats like Anthony, get swept away in all the hoopla and take a big fall.

Ellen, once again you have brought another talented person to us and blown us away.
God Bless Merry Christmas to you & yours.

I am so impressed by this little "man" - he is going to go places. I keep playing this tape over and over and I cannot get enough of it.

Way to go Anthony - You Rock!!

What's great about being 8 !!! Whoa Anthony's got it all. Great stage presence...great voice, and rythm when he moves...And a great smile:)You go Anthony and I can't wait to see you perform again.

This kid is amazing, boy do I hope someone signs him and does it fast. He's got a hell of a furture ahead of him that's for sure. Thank you Ellen for bringing him to us and I wish him all of the luck in the world.

Ellen - you are just a wonderful entertainer and I love your show. I really enjoyed hearing the young 8 year old sing. Truly amazing - with his natural talent you behind him he will definitely have a very very bright future. Thank you for introducing him to the world.
Have a wonderful Christmas from all of us herein Paris, Ontario Canada

he was fantastic!I came home from taking my son from the doctor and It lifted both our spirits.keep up the great work on your show and his career will be great be the best he can be but still be a kid.

Anthony was great. He is going to go places. I wish him lots of luck in his future. It's so nice that you get these amazing kids on your show. You are a great person and may God Bless you! May you and all your staff and audiance memebers have a very Merry Christmas! Keep up the great show!


I SAW THAT LITTLE MAN SINGING HIS HEART OUT AND IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. HE WAS FABULOUS. WHEN I WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD I USE TO SING SOLO'S IN DANCE RECITALS AND THAT WAS MY DREAM. I SANG FOR DANNY THOMAS AT THE JEFFERSON HOTEL FOR THE SAINT JUDE DINNER AND FOR THE MEN AT SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE IN THE HOSPITAL WHEN THEY CAME BACK FOR VIETNAM INJURED. WE HAD TO MOVE SO THAT PUT AN END TO MY DREAMS. SO ANY YOUNG TALENT LIKE THAT I ESPECIALLY LOVE TO HEAR THEM BELT IT OUT. HE ALSO HAS A DARLING PERSONALITY. GREAT JOB!

that was wonderful,i had a big smile on my face and tears in my eyes

This kid is amazing! I couldn't believe how much confidence he has. Acts older than his age. Keep it up kid.

Ellen, where was Anthony (the 8 year old singer who was so cool and family) -- mother?
