An extraordinarily talented girl from the Philippines has gained millions of fans all over the world after a video was posted online of her singing Whitney Houston.
Elsie, who lives in a small Filipino fishing village, is blind and has never been able to attend school.
But despite not speaking a word of English, she has taught herself the lyrics of her favourite international pop tunes, and puts on jaw-dropping pitch perfect performances.
Stunning: Videos of Elsie, a blind girl from a small village in the Philippines, have been seen by millions of people all over the world
By listening to music by world famous pop stars such as Pink, Whitney Houston and Ed Sheeran, over and over again, she has learned how to mimic their singing styles.
A YouTube video of her singing from 2013 identifies her as 19-year-old Elsie Balawing, making her in her mid-20s today.
However, it is only in the past few weeks that she has become a viral superstar, after a video of her singing I Will Always Love You was posted on Facebook by an American man named Darrell Burnett.
The clip of her performing Dolly Parton's classic tune, made iconic by Whitney Houston, has been viewed by more than 19million people in just three weeks.
Amazing talent: Despite never having learned to speak the language, she sings English pop tunes with perfect pronunciation and pitch
Mr Burnett writes: 'This is Elsie she is totally blind. She has never been to school, never learned English.
'She listens to songs and learns the song. She has one of the most Amazing voices I have ever heard. She lives in a small fishing village in the Philippines.'
It is not known how Mr Burnett came across the wildly talented young woman, but he followed up the first video with several equally amazing performances by Elsie.
In another video posted by Mr Burnett, Else can be heard singing Ed Sheeran's Perfect and another sees her take on Just Give Me A Reason by Pink.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
