16-year-old Ton Do-Nguyen from Pennsylvania created an awe-inspiring remake of Beyonce’s “Countdown” music video.

Imitating facial expressions and dance moves while duplicating color washes and framed shots, Nguyen made an impressive and even hilarious (he incorporated a snuggie) amateur remake of the video.

Despite the huge budget and professional team working on Beyonce’s original video, it’s amazing how a self-taught teen can create an almost exact replica with just simple editing software and a few friends.

After his video went viral on Youtube, Nguyen received the highest praise of all. His idol, Beyonce reposted the video on her Tumblr page and wrote,  “Brilliant. I Think he did this video better than I did .”

“The very moment of seeing my face on Beyonce’s website had to be the best moment of my life,” Nguyen said. “I can’t even find words to describe how I felt. Knowing that my number one idol, the Queen B, had merely seen my video was enough to send me over the moon.”
