Xiao Bao -- 4 Year-Old 'Little Michael Jackson' from China by Mr. Loba-Loba I first encountered Xiao Bao at a Beijing dance studio. He was wearing a Mickey Mouse T-shirt, zooming around the room, passing out lollipops and bottles of Cokes his parents had brought for our CNN crew. He seemed just like any other four-year-old, incredibly cute, giggly and overwhelmingly energetic. Then he made a quick change, throwing on a black and gold costume and sunglasses, and suddenly he was China's youngest Michael Jackson impersonator. As soon as the music started playing he started hip-hopping, pop and locking and moonwalking — like a pro. My favorite part was that he moved his mouth to the English lyrics to "Dangerous," without actually saying them out loud or understanding what the lyrics mean. At the end of his routine, he held his last pose an extra few seconds to get the appropriate amount of applause and ooh-ing and aww-ing. He definitely basked in the attention. When asked to tell us his favorite singer, Xiao Bao said in his limited English, "My-co Jay-ke-sun!" Then he collapsed into a fit of giggles. Wang Yiming, famously known as Xiao Bao (which means "little treasure" in Chinese), first started performing when he was two years old, in a provincial children's talent competition. By the time we met him he had already danced his way through national competitions and television shows. These days, the aspiring "prince" of pop has gone global. Earlier this year, Xiao Bao rocked ...

Almost one year after the death of music legend Michael Jackson, his spirit is living on in a 4-year-old Chinese boy. His name is Xiao Bao(小宝). And right now he's moonwalking and dancing his way to international super stardom. This pint-sized Michael Jackson impersonator is proving he's a real "thriller." Moonwalking across the stage. And moving to the music just like MJ used to do. Xiao Bao is an awesome talent. He's got the dance moves and the look to boot. He has dozens of tailor-made suits, hats and shirts, plus his own professional trainer. Jackson impersonator Xiao Bao said, "Even before I was born I would listen to music and dance in my Mum's stomach." Xiao Bao was born prematurely. Doctors suggested moving his limbs to music would help build his weak muscles. So, at the age of two he proved, "this is it." Bian Aiqing, Xiao Bao's mother, said, "When he was young, we just started playing music to him and he started moving around like this. But, we didn't think that he had such a strong feeling for music. When he was just a couple of months old we would let him listen to music and he would immediately stop crying and calm down." XIAO BAO'S MOTHER says it wasn't long before her son's interest turned into a real passion with the family spending up to 20000 yuan a month on training and outfits. Xiao Bao has already taken his first steps to becoming an international superstar. He's already appeared on popular US TV talk show 'Ellen' and has also performed at the ...
