Chris Crocker


Chris Crocker is a young gay teenager is the States. He has become famous for basically being himself. His by now well publicised rants recorded in his grandmother's house and posted on the Internet are hilariously funny! He rants about everything you can think of, women versus gay men, how he found out he was gay,how he thinks everyone is born gay and in denial, his view on politics and of course, "the video" where he screams crying about the media and their "unfair treatment of Britney Spears. It is absolutely comical to watch this guy roaring crying over Britney, I mean you'd think they were related the way he is reacting. There is an overall sense of "is this guy for real" as you're watching, and while I was slightly disgusted at some of his videos, i couldn't help but laugh.
He has appeared on The Jimmy Kimmel show in the U.S where he once again gave his controversial views on life and flirted outrageously with the host. He is currently in talks about getting his own talk show, which would no doubt be a hit. He is openly "heterophobic" and not afraid to express his opinion about his distate for heterosexuals.
He has come under a lot of criticism lately, being slated on his myspace homepage for forgetting who he is since becoming famous. His unprecedented success has shocked himself as well as haters of him. He has hit back at critics saying that he hasn't changed, and its not fair that he should now be hassled just because he's now getting paid for doing what he started out doing. I don't know, what does anyone else think? I do think that if I could get paid to express my honest opinions live on television, no amount of critics would stop me.

Check him out on youtube and have a look at his myspace page and see what you think
