Cry baby cry

    What can we get from youtube? Something beyond imagination. It seems that we can witness whatever happening anywhere around the world, as long as someone records it with a  cell phone or mini camera and upload it. And information goes crazy along with thw birth of twitter. Bus Uncle is an perfect example. We also tries to express our feelings or opinions on anything and share them with others. Whatever form may them be. Leave Britney Alone represents that. I prefer the latter one. And the video is available through the link below.
Leave Britney Alone



       One night before, he was just a nobody just like any other U.S. boy, and then he just became an internet celebrity. It's all because of his video on youtube:Leave Britney Alone. 'on youtube, there has been 34,190,488 viewers since 2007'1. It would win him a gold record if this is a music album.

        So is this really a fantastic video that worth watching? To some degree, yes. But I would not say that it's a very good video with high quality technically. Because during the 2 minutes, there is only this Crocker guy crying and shouting for Britney, and he wanted the world to leave Britney alone. He was hiding under a blanket, but he did consider the light effect. He applied bright light to make everyone see clearly what he looks like and what he is doing. There is nothing innovative or even special on camera angle, it basically likes chating with your friend through web camera.

         Although the video has no aesthetic value, it did raise interesting socio-cultural issues. Because this guy just like he was going crazy, and his behavior suggests that his feeling about Britney: a total stranger who doesn't even know him is sick. He just like a cry  baby without reason. Also his weird make-up made him a non-mainstream figure, probably indicate homosexual tendency. It's not a healthy and normal boy exposing himself to the public,which made people argue and argue the moral sense of this behavior.

         I think we should take it easy. He didn't use this video to harm anyone, in fact, he was protecting someone. Besides, one main feature of internet is its openness, whatever he is thinking doesn't matter to anyone else. We may enjoy the interest of watching it and get on with what we have to do in real life.
