Remember that “Leave Britney Alone” kid from YouTube? A lot has happened to Chris Crocker since his video went viral.

Almost overnight, a young gay kid’s tearful rant on bullying and Britney Spears made Chris Crocker an international sensation. It also made the staff at YouTube and Google really nervous, wondering is this the face we want to represent our company?

Yes indeedy, an effeminate little teenager from the south made a giant multi-billion dollar corporation squirm.

Chris Crocker now looks a lot different from his former self, letting his natural brown hair grow in and adding 15 pounds of muscle onto his now very butch body. Why has Chris gotten so masculine all of a sudden?

Listen as we talk with Chris about his upcoming documentary “Me at the Zoo,” his porn career put on hold, acting with Don Johnson and Shangela in a failed pilot and why we all got frisky backstage at Pridefest Milwaukee.

Things got a little out of hand backstage at Pridefest with Chris Crocker.

Does Britney Spears really refuse to answer any questions about the video?

Will Lady Gaga collaborate with Chris?

And why some guys have more cum than common sense.

The internet helped him connect with the greater world around him when he couldn’t create a gay-straight alliance in his school and he left to be home schooled. To grow up a gay, eccentric and flamboyant teen has never been easy especially in a small conservative town in Tennessee.

If it weren’t for the internet where would Chris Crocker be?

Today Chris is one of the most watched and imitated video bloggers online. His iconic video of himself weeping and imploring the public to “Leave Britney Alone” made him a household name.

Chris’ videos represent the dramatic change we’re seeing in how we create and consume media. Chris’ videos are just as popular as the YouTube Presidential debates or the evening news. For millions of people everywhere, his opinion matters.

Despite this, old media companies are threatened by Chris popularity because of his bold desire to express himself at any cost. They can’t control him and he doesn’t need them.

It’s easy to question the authenticity of Chris’ videos because he’s just that good. He’s eerily in touch with his dark emotions and quickly cuts through the hypocrisy of the “haters” with his wit and words.

“Leave Britney Alone” proves to be one of the most emotionally over the top videos I’ve ever seen online. I believe Chris cried not so much for Britney Spears but rather to express the pain and suffering he endured having gone through the hell of homophobia as a teenager. In many ways, Chris Crocker represents the tortured gay youth who fought back and lived.

Chris Crocker really is a huge fan of Britney Spears, even though she has conservative leanings and a complete lack of interest in gay rights of any kind. Remember, she was FOR the War in Iraq and said in many interviews that we should “stand by our President” despite his reckless policies.

Chris sees something bigger inside of Britney. He believes her to be a liberal person trapped by the conservative world around her.

People can’t leave Britney alone or any other tragic celebrity for that matter because they help us cope with our everyday problems. When we see someone richer, more attractive and more powerful than us struggling to hold on, it makes it easy to come to peace with our place in the world.

On today’s show Chris Crocker joins us to talk in-depth about his popular video blog, his passion for following people’s horoscope and how he may team up with Puerto Rican TV astrologer Walter Mercado to reach a hip, young new audience. We also talk with Chris about how he personally deals with the vicious hate online and offline, what he thinks of all those parody videos of his work and where in Los Angeles you should hang out if you want to hook up with Chris.

And we put to rest the rumors surrounding Chris’ HIV/AIDS conspiracy as a government biological weapon gone wrong and being vilified for simply being himself and being good at it!
