Self-Made Docusoaps

Chris Crocker Pays Tribute to Britney Spears with Virtual Reality Show

— September 21, 2007 — Tech
Chris Crocker, the crazed fan who made his claim to YouTube fame with his tributes to Britney Spears, will be starring in his own reality docusoap show. Now viewers can get the inside scoop on the life of the 19-year-old gay Spears fan.

“Pity anyone who has been trying to get attention for their YouTube videos in the past week or so,” the Globe and Mail Reported. “Why? Because the past week has belonged solely to Chris Crocker, the pseudonym of a young gay man who reportedly lives with his grandmother in a small town in Tennessee, and makes videos in his closet.”

The cross-dresser has made a name for himself ranting about things that irk him, including the recent Britney bashing.

The video contains crude language, so if you’re offended by profanity, don’t watch it. It shows Crocker crying and screaming in outrage, asking that the media leave Spears alone.
