The most biggest thing you never heard of ever before
Five years ago, my house was filled with the helium-fueled screech of some kid on YouTube. It was Fred. Just a 9 year-old with his “alcoholic” mom’s cam and his finger on the warp-voice-to-chipmunk button. My kids thought he was brilliant.
I sat through about 20 of his YouTube videos. 1 was cute, 2 was enough and 3, was ice picks through my ears brings sweet relief. Despite me, Fred became a huge hit, and bigger news, after 5 years he still is. His top vid scored 38,000,000 hits, he’s #2 all-time YouTube-subscribed and he got a hugely advertised guest spot on Nickelodeon’s highest rated show, iCarly. He’s got a freaking iPhone app.
So keep an eye on Fred. He could end up ruling the world. Or he could wind up on the cover of OK! after forfeiting a $30 trillion P&G contract when he gets caught running a string of meth labs across the corn belt. Can’t wait to find out.
