Mae Muller had her first brush with fame thanks to her pearly whites, winning a part in a Mika music video because the singer was a fan of them.
The 25-year-old is now a popstar in her own right, and as well as hitting the UK charts with single Better Days, has supported the likes of Little Mix on tour.
But as a child, Mae had her first taste of stardom when she successfully auditioned for a role in a video for Mika, who went on to win a Brit Award and score a Grammy Award nomination.
For the video for his UK number one charting single Grace Kelly, based on the Hollywood icon, a young Mae appeared alongside the 39-year-old.
Mae, sporting a cute yellow dress with puffy sleeves, is singing along on top of a piano while the judge on the Italian version of X Factor blasts out his anthem in an opulently decorated room.
Playing a clip of the video on Wednesday night’s Never Mind the Buzzcocks, hosted by comedian and Taskmaster Greg Davies, Mae revealed how she secured the pat at such a young age.

‘I actually got it based on how f****d up my teeth were, apparently,’ she told the 54-year-old.
Laughing, the Man Down creator said: ‘Is that what Mika demanded?’
Mae continued: ‘I guess they saw all the auditions and he went, “She’s got some real intense teeth. That’s good, we like that.”‘

Joking, Greg added: ‘To be fair Mika’s got a point hasn’t he?’
Comedian Jamali Maddix, who co-stars on the comeback show with Noel Fielding and Daisy May Cooper, quipped: ‘They’re my teeth’, while GBBO presenter Noel said in mock horror: ‘I can’t believe you gave your old teeth to Jamali.’
Shrugging, Mae replied: ‘Don’t worry, don’t worry about it.’

Greg has previously told Metro.co.uk he just ‘likes the chaos’ on the rebooted Never Mind The Buzzcocks, when it first launched.
He added: ‘I think when we got to know each other after a couple, it was chaotic enough for me and I just think it will get more and more so as the series goes on. I hope so.’
Never Mind the Buzzcocks continues next Wednesday on Sky Max at 9pm
