Keenan Cahill became an internet sensation a few years ago. He's still lip synching popular songs. Does anyone still find him funny? His 15 minutes of fame has been long over. In fact, I find him kinda creepy. He's now a grown man. Also, he has zero talent. Is lip synching even a talent?

If you find him still funny that's great, and I'm glad he makes you laugh. He just doesn't do it for me.

I remember him, yeah he is pretty creepy.

It's sad that he is still making the videos, but if he's getting paid then that's cool.

For some reason I thought it was Chocolate Rain.

I get a crack out of the person in the OP mostly because he looks like a mini-me version of a landlord I had in college.

It all started when 50 cent showed up at his house and did a video with him and that video when viral. Then it seemed like all the singers wanted to do a video with him. He even did a vid with Katy Perry. I have not seen that guy in a couple of years don't know if singers are still doing vids with him or not. I'm pretty sure that guy is making nice chunk of change. If I could do what he is doing I'd do too.

The 50 cent video was awesome. I think that's when I heard about the kid. Watched a couple of his other vids, and didn't see what the big deal was. I haven't thought about it since, nor remembered his name.

50 cent doing that was cool as hell in my book, though.

Never heard of him and HTF does this have 3.7 million views?

I weep for humanity.
You know what's really sad. You Tube has a lot of wonderful videos to improve your life. You can learn how to study more effectively. You can learn how to start your own business, invest, and gain clients. Basically, if you want to improve your life you can watch videos that will guide you in the right direction, and its all on YouTube. For free!! But do people seek out these videos? Nope! You might have a few hundred videos if your lucky.

The videos with the most views are prank videos, gaming shows, and so on. Don't get me wrong. I like entertainment as much as the next person. But when you have people performing stupid inner city pranks, and getting a million views, I think it speaks volumes about people.

If you look for Keenan's net worth it says that he's worth about $450k.

Pretty good for having a disability and no talent.

Hater's gonna hate.
I'm not hating. If you can tell me the talent he has to command that much money then I will agree with your statement.

If you were to say that his talent is making people laugh I'm going to disagree. Are people laughing at him because they find him funny, or are they laughing at his disability? Robin Williams is a comedic genius. He could truly make people laugh because he had talent. Keenan doesn't have that comedic ability. At least in my opinion.

He's talented enough to get you, someone who apparently doesn't like or care about him, to post links to his videos which will give him even more views, and thus more money.

I remember the one where the famous person jumped out of his closet to sing with him. That was pretty awesome. Never really watched any others he did, but good on him for making some coin and getting to meet some famous peeps.

The name sounds familiar and I'm pretty sure I've seen his face, never watched any of his crap though. I want to say he had a video with 50 cent or something.
