It opens up an interesting debate.Whilst Brain won't see 2019 how many other internet stars will get seriously ill and at what point if any will the committee consider them viable options.Many Internet stars have a greater reach than many TV stars at least they have over the last several years.

He called it successful himself so I assume it was a pain relief in the final days. Sometimes that's all one could wish for. As an occasional gamer and dog lover myself, I feel like a kindred spirit has died. RIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
