"Britney's Biggest Fan"

A short and very likely incomplete list of things that are wrong with this clip:
  • The use of the word "Britastrophe".
  • The referring of the Youtube video in question, and the guy in it, as an "Internet sensation".
  • The fact that this story is being featured on a mainstream news outlet like ABC at all in the first place, and that they're interviewing the guy as though he, himself, were somehow some sort of celebrity.
  • And, of course, the Youtube video itself, featured in the story, in which this dude just completely flips the hell out (or, at least, acts like he's doing so). Even though I find the guy in it to be little more than a flaming attention whore, I can't help but admit to a strange, morbid fascination while watching it; thus this post. It was like a human trainwreck. I just couldn't look away. >_> It was kind of the same feeling I got watching the Chad Warden videos, back in the day.
But, yeah, if it were just a video on Youtube, I wouldn't really care. It's the news coverage of it, as though it were actually something newsworthy, that takes the cake.

(UPDATE)

"If anything ever happened to Britney Spears, the world can kiss my ass good bye. Because if anything ever happens to her, I'm jumping off the nearest fucking building."

*eyeroll + finger-swirly around temple*

What is this guy's glitch? (Well, aside from a text-book case of attention prostitution, obviously. He seems to be quite good at that.)
