Sophia Grace and her cousin Rosie became internet sensations back in 2011 after their adorable rendition of Super Bass by Nicki Minaj caught the attention of US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres, who gave the two little girls a segment on her show. Now, Sophie Grace is just a couple of weeks away from celebrating her 14th birthday, and couldn't look more different than the little girl in a tutu dress!

Joining the Loose Women hosts for a chat on Tuesday, the viral star dressed down in a striped T-shirt with a denim dress, and opened up about finding fame as a child star. "My dad said he was driving on the motorway and he got a call from the Ellen Show - they said they wanted to fly us over," she said, talking about the moment she and Rosie were invited onto the hit show. "I was really excited when I met Nicki Minaj but I was pretty nervous when I first went on the Ellen show."

Joking about her cute outfits from when she was younger, she said: "There's no more tutu. I think it looks pretty but I'm 14 in April, so I guess I'm a bit old now!" She confirmed that she still appears on US talk shows with Rosie, so much so they even have an apartment in the US for when they travel over. But despite her busy schedule, Sophia Grace confirmed that she still has to do household work like any other teenager, joking: "I do still have pocket money. I still have chores, but I love all that stuff." Meanwhile, her cousin Rosie has launched her own YouTube channel, where she vlogs about her life to fans, updating them about her hobbies and school life.
