In a typical department store, you’ll find not only stuff that is up for grabs but also shoppers from all walks of life.
There you’ll see children crying over some toys that their parents wouldn’t want to buy, picky moms who seem to have microscopic eyes, dreary-eyed husbands pushing strollers around (obviously don’t aren’t enjoying what they are doing), and a whole lot more.
But if luck is on your side, you may just witness something… Something that you have never seen before.

One day, Christina Kokonis-Viggers turned an ordinary shopping day into a musical treat and surprised everyone in the store.
As Christina and her friend Amanda Lasher were strolling through a particular aisle of their local Sam’s Club, they saw a unique device.
They found a karaoke machine that could connect wirelessly to any Bluetooth-capable device. Once it successfully connects, it can play any track the user wants, and they can sing along through its speakers.
They just seemed to be having fun at it, tweaking the machine here and there. However, everything changed when Christina started to sing- seriously.
She is not your ordinary karaoke singer!
She is set to sing “Maybe This Time”, a song from the 1972 American musical-drama, Cabaret. It was sung by the character Sally Bowles that’s played by Academy Award-winner Liza Minnelli.
Usually, the people who sing at department stores would choose a song that they have probably heard on the radio over and over. They always sing the boring and repetitive parts of a famous song. But not Christina here, she is no ordinary karaoke singer, actually, she is not just an average type of performer.
She is a self-proclaimed “Diva In The Making!”
Yes, that is right, as her YouTube channel says, she is an aspiring Diva. Christina channels her inner Liza Minelli and belts out an equally beautiful rendition of the song.
Her voice is firm and she is punching every note with so much power! And oh, her vibratos are on a different level! You didn’t expect that, right?
She seems to be having a lot of fun as she occasionally gives her friend “that” look, but with a wide smile. Her voice sure echoes in the entire store and we bet that all the shoppers, even those from afar, are enticed by her vocal prowess.
And they love it!
When she’s done singing, the entire store bursts into loud cheers!
Looks like her beautiful voice was able to stop some of the shoppers from strolling around. However, she was not able to predict the fame that this impromptu performance would soon bring her.
At first, she asked Amanda not to upload the video anywhere on the internet, but she gave in eventually.
The video quickly went viral and within just 8 hours, it already amassed over eight million views.
That’s over a million views per hour!
Her video made quite a ruckus (a good one) over the internet landscape, and that was just the beginning.
Soon, she began receiving calls from talent agents interested in representing her.
From local radio stations up to the spotlight of America’s Got Talent! It looked like everyone loved the video showcasing her talent.
They wanted more from Christina and eventually, she got to perform on The Steve Harvey Show.
Being on America’s Got Talent may have not worked out well for her, but still, the downpour of blessings didn’t stop there.
Her YouTube channel continues to grow, her thousands of followers and subscribers surely have a lot more to look forward to from Christina Kokonis-Viggers, the one and only Diva In The Making!
