Sophia Grace And Rosie Rap On 'Ellen' Show: Girls Sing, Freestyle To Keri Hilson's 'Turn My Swag On' (VIDEO)

Sophia Grace And Rosie Rap Keri Hilson Ellen Show

British starlets Sophia Grace and Rosie have made yet another triumphant return to "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," this time rapping to Keri Hilson and doing some freestyling of their own.

In the video above, the girls sing to Hilson's "Turn My Swag On" right before Sophia Grace erupts into a clever freestyle describing the duo's recent rise to fame.

"We're going to the top of Hollywood, and it's official, but dad's in the crowd crying, here's a tissue," the British starlet belts out. "And it don't stop, we're flying to the U.S. from the U.K. non-stop."

It didn't take long for the audience to fall in love with them all over again.

Sophia Grace and Rosie received a standing ovation, and Ellen surprised the girls with news that they will be interviewing celebrities on the red carpet at the Grammy's -- with new puffy, pink dresses nonetheless.

Sophia Grace Brownlee, 8, and cousin Rosie, 5, became Internet sensations after a video of the pair singing Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" went viral on YouTube in September.

Today, the clip has been viewed more than 30 million times.

Since then, the girls have regularly appeared on "Ellen" and even interviewed stars at the American Music Awards as correspondents for the show.

With where some individuals want to put it with these young ladies or girls don't get me wrong... They have to start-off from somewhere, where is it going to be? Is it just being so Adorable... So Fearless in front of so many, the way some grownups still can't face their bosses or parents...

Some people want to say parents are using their kids to make money... Well some parents would never let their children ever show that talent and it would be totally wasted never being used because they never knew they had it...

There is no account for taste---What's the matter mom and dad can't get a job--put these kids back in school so they will have a better chance in life.

Sophia Grace is a fresh and genuine, happy little soul. I suspect her parents have given her the type of upbringing that supports her spontaneity and self confidence. It always makes me feel happy to watch the joyful innocence of Sophia Grace and her quiet little cousin sidekick Rosie.

You don't have to watch or listen you know.

I love that she is gracious enough to include her sister who is a little too young to sing and to say, "Thank you" when given a gift. What a fierce, determined little girl. I wish them both a long and happy career together. Perhaps they are the Heart of the new millenium.

I believe Rosie is her cousin.

Aha! Thanks for the info! They are adorable and fierce, brave, lovely little ladies.

Why'd they mod me this time?

She certainly has "fierceness"! If you don't perform, you can't know how bold this child is.

SOOOOO Freaking funny and cute---

Let's hope her parents aren't in this for the $$$$, and actually let her have a normal childhood after her brush with fame.

They are adorable and she really is good for 8 years old. Not the greatest singer but there are moments when she really hits some of those notes and the rest will come in time. The lyrics about her and Rosie were great too. I think what makes them so fun to watch is they sing songs kids probably shouldn't listen to but they clearly have nooooo idea what they are really singing. I want to hear her do eminem and rhiana "love the way you lie"

Like I said before, the dawg sounds better chasing the firetruck. My cat getting his tail caught under the rocking-chair, screaming, makes more sense.

these little girls are so cute. totally amazing.

What are you on?
05:11 PM on 02/15/2012
actually Nothing! something wrong with the way they look?
04:35 PM on 02/11/2012
This is a good one,I'd seen it on the TV, Homer you knows you is bad at keep'n work and I can't afford school to get a job later and we have these 2 little darlin's lets dress them up to prance across a stage put on agood show and honey the cash will come fly'n our way. Thats a fine and dandy plan, Ezzie.

Did they rap about bitch#s and ho's?
12:05 PM on 02/11/2012
Every time I see them on Ellen... it makes me smile.

Totally awesome, but your use of the word "freestyle" is totally inaccurate. "Freestyle" would indicate unwritten, unrehearsed, off-the-dome, improvisational verse. Rosie and Sophia Grace's performances are wonderful, but I don't think they're quite "freestyling" yet.

Must be an LSD flash-back.

Very talented little girl.
10:07 AM on 02/11/2012
Sophia Grace has a talented voice, but her energy is so manic! I hope she has an "off" switch.
And people think Rosie's cute for pretending to sing; but when a record is cut, she'll be abandoned.Not fair to set her up as a star for only 15 minutes of fame.

In the first Ellen video Sophia Grace said her cousin Rosie is there to give her moral support as she sings. At some point Sophia Grace will be holding her own on the stage but for now the addition of Rosie certainly multiplies the "cute factor" enormously!
