Editorialized title, because it makes no sense to focus on his three year celibacy. Also a four month old article, but I figured it was still good to see.

*edit
changed 'good' to 'fine' because that was just a huge missed opportunity.

Yeah. Occassionally I like to check back in on people who 'made it big' for one reason or another, to see how they're doing. I was happily surprised to see this guy took his chance seriously and turned it into an actual career while also avoiding a shitload of common pitfalls surrounding this type of fame.

Cash me ousside girl is a good example of someone who got famous, but kept a lot of the bad habits from childhood around, which is always a shame.
