  • pitchblack16, on 07/30/2008, -8/+19good for him
    • jemka, on 07/31/2008, -0/+8Wow that kid is flamboyant.
      • ubuwalker31, on 07/31/2008, -1/+1He's gay. Get over it.
      • WELLDOITLIVE, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1He was stating a fact, he didn't say he had a problem with the kid being gay.
    • marc123, on 07/31/2008, -0/+5"good for him" you say! mindless toilet humor talentless ***** like that is going to destroy western civilization mark my words.
      • pitchblack16, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1lol, well lets not get too drastic, I mean the kid's 12 and making a fortune, nothing wrong with that, but i enjoyed your comment regardless.
      • notanidiot, on 08/01/2008, -0/+1Talentless yes. Creative, yes.
    • DrVonNugent, on 07/31/2008, -0/+2I'm going with marc on this one. I don't know which is worse, the fact that he has a fan-base, or that this made the 'news.' Either way, my soul just died a little.
    • themastersb, on 07/31/2008, -0/+2One of many million Youtube attention whores. Seeing this article make front page and seeing CNN do a report on it just made me lose all hope for humanity. Excuse me while i go kill myself now.
    • HaMMeReD, on 08/03/2008, -0/+0I watched one of his videos, and I think I'm a bit old for it now, but I have to say it was well put together, and gave me a few chuckles.

      I don't think "anybody" could do that, it was well written/acted/filmed and edited, pretty good quality work for youtube.
    • Allinoneok, on 08/13/2008, -0/+0Fred IS Better.
  • JarvisTeam, on 07/30/2008, -2/+13Reminded me of the FUBU owner. Bought some fabric and made his own hats... fast forward to soemone hugely successful.
    • burchie2, on 07/31/2008, -6/+3Do you mean Farmers Used to Buy Us, or Farmers Used to Beat Us ?
      • Gnar04, on 07/31/2008, -1/+86th grade called, they want their joke back.
    • Jorge1103, on 07/31/2008, -8/+5Who in their right state of mind wears (let alone BUYS) fubu... it's like, clothing for poor people.
  • Hayes, on 07/30/2008, -16/+2hahahaha, never seen this kid before. But when he's jumping on his mom's bed, it's ***** hilarious http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMXiIQlcIo4&feature ...

  • scratend0788, on 07/30/2008, -1/+78goes to show that the internet is infact full of little kids
    we need a new medium
  • Michaelabehsera, on 07/30/2008, -17/+1Hes lucky he got a really big sponsorship by Zipit Wireless I think they r paying him well:) does any body here know about this device? I checked it out and its like a texting/mp3/IM device for 50 dollars. Did any body here use it? Do you know if it’s good???
  • shearyadi, on 07/30/2008, -4/+7Lucky kid :)
  • mikesbaker, on 07/30/2008, -1/+56and there goes his 15 minutes
  • StingingNettle, on 07/31/2008, -2/+36Is CNN always like this? Sorry I don't have TV and felt like I was watching some ***** local news channel except even more irritated.
    • StarofTroy, on 07/31/2008, -0/+9Yea it is like that. They have some deal with Youtube. Every morning on their early shows they play 3 or more videos from Youtube that have nothing to do with anything.
    • punkcat, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3they had 2 introductions for the clip, talk about filling time up.
    • snlildude87, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1well, they do have 24 hours to fill
  • kactuscrow, on 07/31/2008, -1/+4Many of us cannot develop the time or patience in working with what's considered 'less'.. When you're young and ambitious.. It seems to be less of a crucial activity.. Kudos for him.. If he pursues the same interests, he may just earn a good living.
  • CanIGetAWitness, on 07/31/2008, -2/+93That ***** kid is in every game room I'm in on Xbox Live.
    • tm13lke, on 07/31/2008, -7/+4Yeah, me too...but then my Xbox got the RRoD after 5 MONTHS of me buying it!

      Thanks for the one month free trial, Microsoft! :D
      • RetepNamenots, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3What are you on about?
      • tm13lke, on 07/31/2008, -3/+4I'm just still upset that my Xbox is broken. I'll be fine
      • nunofgs, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3@tm13lke: you never really recover from a RRoD. I still wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat...
  • tulanian12, on 07/31/2008, -3/+30Wow... there are impeachment hearings in Congress and this is what CNN decides to report on?
    • doctorfungi, on 07/31/2008, -6/+5Yes, because CNN should report solely on one thing 24/7 without giving 2 minutes to something light-hearted. That's retarded.
      • Jger, on 07/31/2008, -1/+6Maybe if they gave 30 secs to the impeachment hearings, then they can take 2 mins for something light-hearted. But when it's all just crap with the really important issues not getting covered at all, then we have a problem.
      • notanidiot, on 08/01/2008, -1/+1Doc, are you saying that CNN is reporting on impeachment hearings 24/7? What CNN are YOU watching? Its more like 0/0.
  • Phurtive, on 07/31/2008, -1/+16His videos are so obnoxious that kids tend to flock to them.
  • Michaelabehsera, on 07/31/2008, -12/+1Its not only kids that like him adults like him too I think hes pretty funny and I respect him for getting soo successful at 14
    • alkajazz, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3So the stupid parents of the stupid kids.
  • r3negadeX, on 08/11/2008, -2/+27That kid's ***** annoying. We don't need any more of this Soulja Boy Youtube attention-whore crap.
    • TheyHate, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3and I was just about to post my digg dance video.... :*(
    • HaMMeReD, on 08/03/2008, -2/+0I don't know if you realize it, but the kid is spoofing those assholes.
  • doctorfungi, on 07/31/2008, -2/+34What the ***** is with this trend of "increased pitch is hilarious" going on. The crazy frog ringtone wasn't funny, and neither is this. It's just intensely annoying drivel coming from some no-talent cluster ***** of a human being who's figured how to raise the pitch of his voice a few tones.
    • Elliuotatar, on 07/31/2008, -0/+4Explanation:
      There are kids on the internet. Talking in a high pitched voice is funny when you're a kid. Except back in my day you had to have a helium balloon or access to a tape recorder with variable speed or a record player.
    • notanidiot, on 08/01/2008, -0/+1chipmunk syndrome.
  • leahpee, on 07/31/2008, -2/+3Good. Finally kids are realising there's more to life than glamour or something.
  • TheWebSwinger, on 07/31/2008, -0/+52Slow news day.
  • koft, on 07/31/2008, -2/+10Dominating youtube? C'mon. "lol, you are so funny" *barf*
  • heavystone, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6Any body? Any shape and size then huh?
  • nunquam, on 07/31/2008, -0/+29Ha! at the 35 year old woman saying 'L.O.L. You are so Funny."
  • landmonster, on 07/31/2008, -9/+12What an annoying little *****, hopefully someone can send him a virus to put him out of action.

    I'm thinking Super-AIDS.
  • plokij909, on 07/31/2008, -1/+17"Phenom"?

    Did a new dictionary come out?
  • Stoyanov, on 07/31/2008, -1/+5They used to break actual news on CNN, now they cover internet phenomena...
  • Pusod, on 07/31/2008, -4/+3I noticed the way he rolls his eyes and does the neck thing (tsk)... he's a little effeminate don't cha think?
  • rosco40, on 07/31/2008, -2/+4Well he just waisted 5 minutes of my life,can I get it back now.
    • RetepNamenots, on 07/31/2008, -0/+2Try just a little harder and you could end up speaking like a LOLcat!
  • MalDON, on 07/31/2008, -1/+10Can someone hand me a rifle. I want to shoot myself after listening to that crap.
  • KingBroseph, on 07/31/2008, -2/+6I've never not known a world without grammar.
  • albel65, on 07/31/2008, -5/+3***** YOU FRE--er i mean, FRANK!!
  • moviscop, on 07/31/2008, -1/+4this kid gives me a headache. i guess president bush wasn't making the news, fred had to jump in.
  • DickyT83, on 07/31/2008, -1/+22Words can't describe how much I hate this kid.
  • Michaelabehsera, on 07/31/2008, -2/+4stop hating cant you see the good side of the story a 14 year old kid taking on the big boys with a hundred dollar camera and getting a sponsorship from zipit wirless isnt that we love the internet???
    • alkajazz, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2Not when a no talent ass clown gets a following of no humor ass clowns.
  • healthyapples, on 07/31/2008, -0/+4Meh so what? I don't find his videos nor the premise to really be that funny but you cant knock on someone for being creative. Props to him for doing what hes doing. That being said, does it seem like people laugh at anything now a days? I mean I watch last comic standing, and this kid, and people find ***** hilarious that I dont even smirk at. george carlin got out at the right time.
  • kalidav, on 07/31/2008, -1/+5What a ***** failure.
  • chikuten, on 07/31/2008, -0/+22i have never heard of this guy
  • socoolisme, on 07/31/2008, -1/+10Kids today are pretty retarded if they think that ***** is funny.
    • HaMMeReD, on 08/03/2008, -0/+0Kids have been watching stupider ***** for years.
  • mnvamsi, on 07/31/2008, -1/+5Where did you find this guy from..
    • Michaelabehsera, on 07/31/2008, -4/+1Thank you for replying nicely:) every body is hating on this kid:( I found him on youtube and was looking at the most popular chaneles and he was the fourth one did some research and I thought that hes an amazing story i mean the guy is only 14 and is more popular the the Jonas Broipthers and makes allot of money he got a sponsorship from zipit wireless.
  • FunyGirl, on 07/31/2008, -3/+1very nice
  • Michaelabehsera, on 07/31/2008, -3/+1ok I am going crazy over here who cares what you people think is funny or not, let people enjoy their lifes if some little kids laugh from this then why not??? look at the bigger picture I did not submit this to get your opinion if hes funny or not I submitted this because I LOVE the internet and the freedom that it gives to every body including a 14 y/o kid that gets more views then almost any other show on TV and a big sponsorship from Zipit Wireless (which really helped their product) isnt that why we love the internet???

  • charm803, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6I like how he plans to kill off Fred.....trampled by horses!

    I found it annoying, but apparently, that was his intention.
  • r4ge, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6I hate this *****.
  • thailand1972, on 07/31/2008, -0/+18I can't decide whether I hate this Fred character, or hate him.
  • christophe971, on 07/31/2008, -4/+2That's not funny, two of my friends .... oh, forget it.
  • mmmben, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6God DAMN that was boring.
  • PixC, on 07/31/2008, -3/+7How annoying. If I get thumbs down, yall are under 18.
  • koft, on 07/31/2008, -1/+15I gotta hand it to this kid, he's come up with one very creative way of coming out of the closet.
  • Emmanuel0007, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2imagine what power this kid has, 50,000,000 views !!!
  • flidge, on 07/31/2008, -2/+2i didnt even watch his videos, but im sure hes a *****
    • Michaelabehsera, on 07/31/2008, -1/+1Why do you use words like that??? I dont understand, that "*****" makes more money then you ever made and hes only 14 why cant you be positive? and see the good side of this story that a 14 y/o becomes more popular then almost any other TV show with multi million dollar budget, please stop bieng an idiot in life dont hate, LOVE:)
  • zomgflamer, on 07/31/2008, -1/+3Jesus, medication at 14.
    How come my medication was ass kicking and wahh wahh mocks.
  • Liquids, on 07/31/2008, -1/+3The videos are ***** horrible.. Fred has got to be the most unfunny and unoriginal little ***** character on the net, and people are eating this ***** up! The interview actually makes the kid behind it seem like hes alright though.. a bit of a *****, but maybe not too bad. Gotta give him props for at least being popular.
