Do you remember the first time you performed in front of an audience at school? After weeks of practicing, the big day finally arrived. You stepped onto the stage, heart pounding in your chest. Your classmates, teachers, and their families were all watching you. The worst part?
The fear of embarrassing yourself in front of your schoolmates. Sure, your parents might have been a little nervous, but you knew you had to face your classmates every single day. That was the real challenge! And if you had a sibling sitting in the audience, it could make things even harder. If they were also in the show with you? Yikes! It could feel like a never-ending competition.
If you made a mistake, you knew you’d never hear the end of it. It would be brought up at every family gathering, always making you cringe. Siblings can be tough to deal with, and sometimes, they’re even more embarrassing than parents. That’s exactly what happened with brother and sister Jadon Cole and Dylan Kate Muller, who took sibling rivalry to the next level.
When they were younger, they decided to perform a version of the song Hallelujah together. But this wasn’t just any performance. Jadon and Dylan, in matching outfits, made it clear they weren’t just singing—they were playing off each other.
Jadon, the older sibling, couldn’t help but interrupt Dylan every chance he got. As Dylan tried to sing a verse, Jadon would jump in with his own twist, turning the performance into a hilarious sibling showdown. The whole thing became a perfect example of the chaos and comedy that comes with sibling rivalry.
It was truly a sight to see! The way Jadon kept interrupting Dylan was pure comedy gold. And when Dylan, trying to get through the song, sings “Hello Julia” instead of “Hallelujah,” the timing was impeccable.
The audience couldn’t help but laugh at the playful back-and-forth. But what really made the moment work was Jadon’s serious, deadpan expression as he kept messing with Dylan’s performance. Their voices were also incredible, which made the funny moments even better. It was the perfect mix of music and comedy.
This sibling performance from five years ago quickly became a viral sensation. The video has since amassed an incredible 21 million views on YouTube alone, making it one of the most memorable moments of their childhood. But even though that video put them on the map, Jadon and Dylan didn’t stop there. They quickly turned their viral fame into real-world success.
Jadon Cole, for one, has grown from being a social media star to a professional actor. He’s already appeared in several TV series and is now stepping into even bigger roles. In 2024, Jadon landed a part in The Instigators alongside lead actor Matt Damon, where he plays Matt Damon’s son! If that wasn’t exciting enough, Jadon also performed in the stage show Newsies in Los Angeles, playing the role of Jack Kelly.
Not long after, Jadon took on the iconic role of Danny Zuko in the LA production of Grease. He’s been honing his craft the old-fashioned way, performing on stage in front of live audiences.
And if you can imagine the thrill of it all, Jadon made his red carpet debut at the premiere of The Instigators in New York City in August 2024, alongside Hollywood stars like Matt Damon, Casey Affleck, and Jack Harlow. Talk about a major moment in his career!
But Jadon’s success is only part of the story. His younger sister, Dylan Kate, is just as talented. In November 2023, she won first place for her monologue at the Drama Teachers Association of Southern California’s theatre competition.
This achievement is just the beginning for Dylan, who has a powerful voice that commands attention. She’s shown the world her incredible talent, and her performance of Burn from Hamilton left audiences in awe. The response to her powerful rendition of the song proves just how far she can go in the world of music and theater.
Both Jadon and Dylan have proven that they are far more than just the sibling duo from that viral Hallelujah video. They’re talented performers in their own right, each carving their path to success. It’s clear that the sibling rivalry they showed in that performance was just the start of their exciting careers.
