Ellen DeGeneres signs British singer to her eleveneleven label

Ellen-Degeneres-Tom-AndrewsImage Credit: Michael Rozman/Warner BrosEllen DeGeneres announced today she has signed another artist to her music label, 16-year-old British singer Tom Andrews. The newest member of the eleveneleven roster revealed on Ellen that he started singing three years ago when his mother entered him into a talent contest. Andrews then treated DeGeneres’ audience to a version of James Brown’s “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.”

Andrews is the second eleveneleven artist. In May, DeGeneres signed Greyson Chance, who became a YouTube phenomenon with his version of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi.”

You can watch Andrews’ encounter with Ellen, and performance of “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World,” after the break.

What do you think of Ellen’s new signing?

    What happened to Ellen’s promise to find Andrea Martin(?) a record deal and Kara was going to write a hit song for her….or did she forget the little colored girl?

    • FromChicago

      Sorry…her name was Angela Martin and she was eliminated on last season’s AI…she’s the girl with the disabled child.

      • Emily

        I dunno…maybe Martin botched it up? She didn’t seem to have a stable life.
        It would seem pretty rude to promise her something and not do anything.

  • Buddy

    Nice voice. Reminds me of Erik Hassle.

  • RICK

    HE IS INCREDIBLE AS IS GREYSON CHANCE. I THINK IT’S WONDERFUL THAT THESE YOUNG PEOPLE WILL BE GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO SUCCEED. ELLEN WILL TREAT THEM WITH RESPECT AND HONESTY! GO ELLEN

    He’s a great talent – look up some of his other performances on YouTube, especially “Carry Me On”, a wonderful song he wrote himself.
