When a group performance isn't going your way, sometimes you have to step into the limelight and steal the show.

And this young star wasn't going to let anyone stop him from singing what he wanted when he performed at a family talent show.

The trio of cousins from Buffalo, Wyoming, were in the middle of a rendition of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in front of their relatives.

But the little frontman decided to take the classic nursery rhyme in a new direction by mashing it up with the Imperial March from Star Wars.

The iconic film theme by John Williams marks the ominous arrival of Darth Vader in one of the most celebrated moments in cinema history.

And the young singer thought the family talent show was the opportune moment to show off his rendition of the classic baddie theme tune.

Relatives can be heard laughing and cheering him on but his two fellow performers stand at his side looking confused.
