'IT MADE ME CRY' Down’s syndrome kids’ carpool karaoke video goes viral as James Corden praises ‘beautiful’ clip
The heartwarming footage shows 50 families from across the UK using Makaton, a form of sign language, to follow along to Christina Perri’s song A Thousand Years in the style of James Corden’s famous Late Late Show segment
SOME pretty amazing people have done Carpool Karaoke. . . but few as special as these young stars.
Their faces alight with glee, these children with Down’s syndrome are the latest internet sensations.
Four-year-old Connie and mum Julie Britton star in the video in aid of World Down Syndrome's Day
Wouldn't Change A Thing
It is all thanks to a video of them belting out a song in the style of James Corden’s famous Late Late Show segment.
It shows 50 families from across the UK using Makaton — a form of sign language that also uses symbols and speech to aid communication — to follow Christina Perri’s hit A Thousand Years.
The uplifting video — titled 50 Mums, 50 Kids, 1 Extra Chromosome — even caught the attention of James, 39, who said it was “the most beautiful Carpool Karaoke” and it had “made him cry”.
It has since gone viral and been seen more than 500,000 times on YouTube and three million times on Facebook.
The start of non-invasive prenatal testing raises the prospect of people with Down’s disappearing from society as terminations are expected to rise.
