"Leave Britney Alone" Guy May Get Own TV Show

Variety:

The "Leave Britney Alone" guy could be getting his own TV show.

Reality shingle 44 Blue Prods. has inked a development deal with Chris Crocker, the Internet superstar whose tear-filled defense of Britney Spears has generated nearly 8 million hits on YouTube in just one week.

Plan is to develop a docusoap built around Crocker, a 19-year-old who lives with his grandparents in Tennessee. Even before the Britney clip, Crocker had developed a large Net audience via numerous video performances posted on MySpace.com.

At first I thought it was a woman needing lip reconstruction and detox.

Apparently we have WAY too many channels to fill up with shows. You mean to tell me there is not anymore lost episodes of "Married with Children" that they can show instead?

Before he does anything, he needs a lot of therapy if he is that much disturbed over Brittney Spears' issues.

More proof that American pop culture has become a festering port-o-potty.

You do realize he was acting in that video right? Check out his other videos they're all taking the piss.

Not a bad audition though, it shows he's convincing I suppose.
