This Little Boy Hiccuping Through a Performance of the National Anthem Is Too Hilarious

Performing in front of a large audience can get the best of anyone — especially a child — but this video proves that sometimes the performances that don't go as planned (like this dance recital performance) are the cutest and most memorable. Seven-year-old Ethan was asked to sing the Australian national anthem at a televised preshow before a baseball game, and it wasn't exactly seamless — the precious little man had to fight hiccups the whole way through.

Watch the video to see Ethan absolutely crush his performance — despite being betrayed by his bodily functions during his time to shine — and to see how he reacts afterwards.
