i've been smoshed

i guess the internet is pretty much a platform that ordinary folks can make a name for themselves through out the world, without any geographic boundaries. this results in the birth of internet celebrities; namely bloggers, youtubers or indie musicians spreading their work through the internet. one of the biggest internet celebrities is Smosh.
Smosh is a duo of college boys from the small town of carmichael, California who started making videos back in and met with instant success when when they released a video clip of them singing to the theme song of pokemon on youtube. they shot to stardom overnight receiving a million hits in a week. (other people also did covers on their pokemon video in crazy languages like hebrew and chinese even) their pokemon video was followed up by a few more music videos before they released, what i think is their best video over; Food Battle 2006, which was followed by dozens of crazily funny videos. They direct, write, shoot and act out their own videos and their appealing and exaggerated sense of humour landed them a recordin deal with video streamin company With collaborations with other youtube celebrities like LisaNova, TheHill88, TheWineKone, DaxFlame, and Perez Hilton, they have managed to widen their fan base. They also were the winners of the youtube awards a couple years back , beatin out the highly popular happyslip.
Currently, Smosh has released videos and hold the top spot on youtube's most suscribed list. their smosh empire have expanded to smosh t-shirts and hoodies (which they wear all the time in their videos) and x-mas cards sales even. They ship their merchandise all over the world. the list of countries include singapore bt not malaysia(ridiculous nonsense). they've also appeared on TRL, the local newstation, chattin with charlie, the Times magazine and much more.
