Youtube is now officially the shortcut to fame, and well, I got no objection to that. You wanna get famous, yeah sure, why the hell not. I am completely fine with people making stupid videos of themselves in hope of getting a million views. Some even succeeded. Like the notorious LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE! (And now he has songs on iTunes too. In all fairness, the singing was good)
I totally agree that people are entitled the right to their own opinion, but I do hope that people do it with at least some level of skills. I like parodies, satires, songs making fun of politicians, you know, things that people actually put effort to create. Hell, Friday, if nothing else, at least gave me a laugh. What I can't stand is the bunch of bozo jerkface sitting in front of a screen made out of Home Depot curtains in their basement making videos like: My Response to That Video, My Reaction to This Video. Why would we want to know how you look like when you watch another video?
Speaking of attention whores, another kind is the crazy ones. Well I don't have much to say about those cause, well they are crazy. Like this.
Apparently, making crazy videos allow her to call herself an entertainer, which in a sadistic sense is true. She has 20+ more videos of her screaming things about Twilight. Robert Pattinson, if you know of her, it would be cruel of you not to give her a kiss for the effort.
Of all kinds of attention whores, the worst is fanboy/girls. Whenever I try to search for things like 'Family Guy Clip', 'Grey's Anatomy Season 4', or, heck, 'Two Girls and A Cup', there is a shit ton of trash videos: Music video made with powerpoint slides and an emo song, Picture montage with the TV soundbite, Remake of a movie scene by some puberty kids...And often, people would leave watermarks like 'Johnny123 Productions', 'Jackthedude Movies' on their clips of very sorry quality. My knowledge of showbiz may be limited but as far as I concern using Windows Movie Maker to put together pictures and Avril Lavigne songs does not make you film producers.
Oh and I firmly believe, when the Rapture comes and a meteor comes swooping down to wipe out civilizations, someone would be holding a video camera amidst the chaos capturing the image, in hope of putting that on Youtube later.
