http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=768446 I just found out that on the "Night of Too Many Stars" an autistic girl, named Jodi DiPiazza will be playing the piano, and accomplanying Katy Perry, in a rendition of "Firework". I got to see a video of it ahead of time though. I think I might have just seen the next Lady Hawke. :)

The video has more than 1.5 million hits at the moment, before the show even airs. So it will likely continue to get lots of attention! Do you think this is a positive thing? Can a moment like this cause people to see autism in a different way?

I think it depends on how it's presented.

She not only singing she is also playing piano, that is not easy for anyone.
