Alana Lee Part 1

Who is Alana Lee Hamilton? With the breaking YouTube hit “Butterflies”, she seems to have come from out of nowhere. But Starcasm knows better! We have the real story on this young talent who has the potential to be a new star in the making!
There’s been all this talk about Rebecca Black and “Friday”, but the artist and song from Ark Music Factory that has most impressed us is Alana Lee and “Butterflies.” (Check out our review of the “Butterflies” video HERE). Rebecca’s appeared on TV and been quoted in newspaper and magazine features, but we know relatively little about Alana. Rectifying that situation is what Starcasm is here for!


To recap what we already know:
In the wake of all the attention shown to Rebecca Black and her song, there were a sizable handful of other AMF videos to take a look at. Of them all, one seemed to be getting a lot more attention than the others; though “Butterflies” was barely a blip compared to “Friday”, it still had a solid lead compared to the rest of the pack. When I started writing my article on AMF, Alana’s YouTube views were just under 200,000, and Rebecca’s were almost to 3 million! In the five days since, Alana has earned well over a million new views. (As of today’s publishing date, it stands at 1.6 million!)
Upon listening to the track, you’ll be able to tell that those views were not to laugh or make fun of her, but because she’s got a really good song to share with us! So that’s what we know about Alana, but here’s some things you might not know about her:
Her full name is Alana Lee Hamilton, and her stage name in film and TV is Alana Hamilton. The 5’2″, 14-year-old young lady hasn’t just appeared on the scene from out of nowhere. She’s both a singer and an actress, and her resume is full of leading and supporting roles on film, TV, stage and music videos.
