Fame In An Unordinary Way

Many talents such as singing, dancing, analyzing, etc can make people famous by watching a simple YouTube video.

Prime example: Justin Bieber (who I'm a huge fan of)
He started his musical career on YouTube with the help of his mom, who is a single parent, and wanted to share her son's talents with other family members, so she posted videos of him singing on YouTube. Discovered by Usher, an artist known for his single "Yeah!" (a personal favorite) and many others, Bieber was swept off his feet into the life of fame, music and a Range Rover (his birthday present from Usher). 

If you're a true YouTube fan, you've probably seen Glozell, Single Ladies Gone Wrong, Charlie Bit Me (which my friends showed me tonight), and probably a few more. 

Glozell - first off, might I mention that she is hilarious. She analyzes songs by Ke$ha, Justin Bieber, and she even makes up her own songs. With an inappropriate, and unclassy taste, Glozell brings humor like no other to the table. If you need cheering up on a blue day, search Glozell and you're bound to laugh.

Single Ladies Gone Wrong is a video my friend Jillian and I found two nights ago while waiting for our friends to finish getting ready to go out. It is a video of a lady dressed up in a clown mask, dancing to Beyonce's hit single "Single Ladies", and she all of a sudden swings her head down to hit the TV. Although this is very unfortunate, it has a bit of humor in it when you actually watch it. But my best wishes go out to the poor lady who hit her head - you did have a lot of views on YouTube, though.

Charlie Bit Me is the video I saw tonight for the first time. I had been wondering why my friends were always talking in a British accent saying "Charlie bit me. That hurt me Charlie." And now I know. The video is adorable. And very entertaining to reenact I must add. 

Well, next time you're bored and want to visit YouTube, I suggest you take a look at those. You're bound to laugh at at least one of those three. 
Until tomorrow
Emily
