Ask a Gay Man

The Internet Celebrity
Video blogs have created internet celebrates, some of which have been highlighted in Time magazine's article Person of the Year: You. Some bloggers discuss interesting and profound topics to capture an audiences attention, some use humor. However, all bloggers have a similar goal: to get their message out. One of my favorites is William Sledd aka the host of Ask a Gay Man. His goal is to rid the world of bad fashion and at the same time he has become a internet celebrity. His show is set up like a talk show; however instead of a huge studio with expensive lights, cameras, and guest stars, Ask a Gay Man is done inside a bedroom. Yet, both a tv talkshow and Sledd's have the same entertainment value and is broadcast to a huge potential audience. Sledd's instant stardom brought him out of the YouTube format and onto the old medias, he can be found as a guest host on The View and a guest writer for Elle magazine, he also has his own website. The video above is from his denim edition, which currently has three million views.
