September 13, 2007 Chris Crocker – The Youtube Overnight Celebrity
*Chris feels connected to Britney because he shares the same birthday as her: December 2
Ok, so in case you’ve been living under a rock for the past couple days and aren’t a part of the almost 4 million hits this video has already gotten, I figured I’d clue you in. The first day it was released (2 days ago) it was forwarded to me and I thought it was funny, in an obsessive, country bumkin kind of way. Now it’s an epidemic! TMZ reported on it, then the local news broadcasts started showing it and now it has hit Fox News and MSNBC.
What I’m into though is the creator of the video, Chris Crocker. While he’s a dramatic sugar plum who files his videos under the “comedy” category, he is also an intelligent and sometimes prolific visionary. Below are some of his other posts that, while funny, also make you think a little.
Love muffins, what do you make of this overnight celebrity?

I remember being sent this before, he worries me a little, but he seems really smart for some things when he isn’t screaming or crying on camera.

I hate to say it, but this person to me sits and talks about the same thing. Is this person not secure in themselves. This person is looking for validation.

What do I think about it? I think they haven’t found bscott! I think its more ridiculous than anything else. He’s trying too hard. Unlike you, Love Muffin, he’s not naturally funny.

you have finally discovered him. i was wondering if you had heard of him. you two are similar in talented gifts and of course in your brave moves to announce who you are to the world. People take him too seriously, they should just relax and enjoy his take on life- funny, intriguing stuff – i love his ” girls who hit on gay guys” – and i am a girl. triple kisses. xoxoxo

I hadn’t seen any of his other videos, just the Britney one. After seeing these I actually like him..Whether it’s an act or not the things he is saying make perfect since, maybe someone will watch it and get something from what he’s saying. Self Pride, Acceptance, Love and Respect for OURSELVES is important. It’s something I am working on with myself but he has the Balls to put it on the Internet. BUT, the Britney video was kind of creepy LOL!!!

This dude said that Britney has the best voice of our time, even better than Mariah Carey. He has to be joking.

I think what he’s trying to do for Britney is over dramatize the other side of the story. We’re always going negative, like Perez Hilton reported about a broken press on nail for f- sake! Lol, I think he is just over doing the “good” side

He’s an attention whore! I say more power to him…. Just remember not all attention is positive… You have to take the good with the bad…

I saw Miss Thing’s video before her Leave-Britney-Alone-Rant video. She’s okay. I parodied her video on YouTube.

wow, this is complete retardation. I’m sorry, I don’t feel sorry for britney. I don’t care. He’s some dumd emo kid with too much time on his hands and a webcam. BScott, I want my 2 mins. back, and TAKE THIS OVER DRAMATIC FOOLISHNESS OFF YOUR SITE! He’s giving you video bloggers a bad name. All that yelling a wiping at his eyes, and I don’t see any tears!
