World’s Smallest Body Builder in Vegas

From my Gymnastics blog:

Aditya ‘Romeo’ Dev’s 2 feet, 9 inches tall and weighs less than 20 pounds. …

Born in India, Romeo’s now wearing bling and checking out the celebrity life in America. He was signed by a US talent agent.

In this (foreign language) BBC documentary clip he auditions for Cirque du Soleil’s Krista Monson at the set of Mystère in Vegas starting at 2min 12sec.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

In summer of 2008, Aditya was diagnosed with aneurysms which, if left untreated, are a serious threat to his life. Aneurysms and Moyamoya are common symptoms of the syndrome MOPD II, which is the cause of Aditya’s small stature.

I was the first to send Cirque information about Romeo.

Looks like he may end up in Hollywood rather than the Circus.
