  • A video of a young contestant singing on a talent show is frequently circulated on social media along with the claim that it features the granddaughter of famed tenor Luciano Pavarotti: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpWgohsa5RkThis claim has found its way into a few news publications. In 2016, for instance, The Independent published an article about the video and wrote that Luciano Pavarotti's 15-year-old granddaughter Sislena Caparrosa brought an audience to tears following a performance of the classic song that made her grandfather famous years before. While this video does feature a talented young singer named Sislena Caparrosa, she is not Pavarotti's granddaughter. The Luciano Pavarotti Foundation confirmed to us via email that Pavarotti, who passed away in 2007, had one granddaughter named Caterina Lo Sasso, the only child of Pavarotti's daughter Cristina. As of this writing, Lo Sasso is now 17 and, according to the foundation, she doesn't sing. The Luciano Pavarotti Foundation wrote: Here's a photograph of Pavarotti's only granddaughter at the premiere of the film Pavarotti in 2019: Oddly enough, this isn't the only video circulating on the internet that supposedly shows Pavarotti's granddaughter singing. While the following video does feature a young, talented singer, this, again, is not Pavarotti's granddaughter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JSu2YchhucWe encountered a similar rumor back in March 2016. At the time, claims circulated that a video showed a young Amy Winehouse singing at age 8, but it actually featured a young singer named Angelina Jordan. (en)
