A moment of fame

I think Andy Warhol once said everyone will have their fifteen minutes of fame.  He would likely be adjusting that estimate, given the viral nature of the internet.  If you haven't already seen this, you'll get a chuckle or two.

The first is a news report of an attempted rape, a serious crime and nothing to laugh about.  The victim's brother, Antoine Dodson, proved to be quite a colorful character ... so much so, that the Gregory Brothers picked it up and autotuned him. Enjoy the second one, especially.



And that is how an internet phenomenon is born.

  1. That has to be the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. To top it off I can't believe they were able to decipher his statements! LOL

  2. He's actually got a website where he's selling t-shirts and doing quite well for himself now. The first thing he did was move his family out of the Projects. Just google Antoine Dodson and prepare for the giggles.
