Delta Airlines Offers To Fly 11-Year-Old To NYC For A Broadway Show After He Goes Viral On TikTok

Nathan Braxton belted out a song from ‘Matilda the Musical.’

Nathan Braxton recently became a viral sensation after a clip of him belting out a show tune blew up on TikTok. Now Delta Airlines has offered to fly the Orange County, California, native to his first Broadway show in New York City.

The clip has over 147,000 views on Tiktok and shows the 11-year-old singing a song from  Matilda the Musical. Last week, Nathan’s mother Samantha tweeted, “I am in shock. @Delta airlines is sending Nathan and the entire family to see his first Broadway  musical in New York City!!!!!”

Delta Airlines responded with, “When you're made for the stage, there's no better place to see your dreams than NYC.”

See the viral video below:

Braxton didn’t just impress Delta Airlines, Tony winner  Leslie Odom Jr., who got his big break in Hamilton, tweeted, “Young brother is far more committed than I even dreamt of being at his age. This is conviction! And I love to see it. On this trajectory, he’ll eclipse me in no time.”

It’s unknown which Broadway show Braxton will see–Matilda The Musical is no longer on Broadway–but we are sure he will have a phenomenal time.
