Editor’s Note: I (Thomas Exler) had the pleasure of meeting Kiersten Kelly at a fundraiser for Jamie’s Dream Team on March 23, 2013, and I was so impressed with her, not only the way she presented herself, but also in her vocal talent, so please sit back and enjoy this amazing story from an international YouTube sensation Kiersten Kelly.

On June 15, 2013, Kiersten Kelly was nice enough to sit down for an interview about her life from growing up, to going to the prom, about her mother raising her, to her One Hand Cup Song (Cover) on YouTube going viral, back in February 2013.

Below is the interview, from a beautiful June day on the banks of the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
