This saddens me.
Don't you hatehatehate it when you find out your hero turns out to be a total douchebag? So I fell in love with this awesome guy Ze Frank a while ago. He's the guy that basically invented the Vlog. And after following him online for a while and fangirling him to pieces, Phil DeFranco (sXephil) said that he was supposed to interview Ze at SXSW, but Ze never showed up. Of course I go to the obvious response of "Oh Phil, don't worry! He's Ze Fuckin' Frank! I bet he was just super busy!" I was wrong.
I just found this video.
~4:20 In this world, the guy that...you had earlier in the video clip right after mine, is a guy named Phil DeFranco who basically replicated every single part of the show, and added like, beer and boobs to the formula and you know, kind of like pushed forward. I don't have any sense of satisfaction from that. I don't feel like you know, creativity was served in a particular way..."
Then I remembered this Tweet from Phil not too long ago.
I'm sure we've all put people on a pedestal who didn't necessarily deserve to be there. It sucks.
