I'd never heard of him either but Instagram is not my cup of tea.
I .... sort of .... read the background story but it was utterly vapid and I gave up.
I'm obviously missing the point .... why was the guy so famous in the first place and have so many people 'following' him?
It's not like he does or has done anything, well, useful ... like discover a cure for a horrible illness, or clear land-mines from war zones with his bare hands or invented something awesome. Has he? He just seems to wander around wearing loads of thick (pretty greasy-looking) makeup and talking shite.

Yes, that's a very good question, Fifs!
He did make-up and was noticed by covergirl. I think he was the first male spokesperson for CoverGirl. Then he was interviewed on Ellen. So he got his following from Youtube.
Everything else.. you're correct.
He has not made a cure for a horrible illness, indeed. In fact, he has made fun of a certain illness.
Edit:
Just submitted my last assignment for the semester! Woop woop! (I hate assignments). Now I can focus on studying for my exams.
The BuzzFeed article that came up when I Googled him was equally cringeworthy, too.
If you haven't heard about the drama by now, I can only assume you've had no internet access for the last week. Seriously, how could you have missed it?!

If you're not interested in what they're interested in, that must mean you have no internet!
Some people just aren't interested in gossip and drama. Some people are interested in things that actually matter in the world.
I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great!
