Sometimes in life, you come across individuals with special talents you never would of thought they had.
Meet Christopher Varnado, a man with a golden voice who just so happens to not have a home. In an interview conducted in downtown L.A., Christopher graces the camera with his beautiful voice.
So far, the interviewer is trying to get into contact with this individual. The video has since been monetized so that anything made from it will be passed along to Christopher.
WOW. Just imagine if this man recorded an album. I bet a lot of people would pay to listen to that amazing voice.
Ellen comes to the rescue again. 17 year old Samantha Garvey is a science genius whose an aspiring marine biologist. She was also one of the 300 semi-finalists for the annual Intel Science Talent Search.
However, Samantha and her family are homeless. So Ellen and AT&T are giving Samantha $50,000 towards her schooling, reports MTV. Also, donations are pouring in after Samantha’s numerous media appearances. Now she and her family have found a new place to live.
Remember Ted Williams? He was the guy found on the exit ramp of an Ohio freeway and became a YouTube sensation. Well Ted just landed his own reality TV show called “Second Chances at Life.”
TMZ reports the show will document Williams life from a promising radio career, to living on the streets, to rebuilding his life. The show will take place in Brooklyn (his hometown), Ohio (where he was living on the streets), to his current hangout, Los Angeles.
Is Ted’s novelty worn off or are you still interested in watching him redevelop his life? And in case you forgot the video, see below:
Alex Lambert from last season’s American Idol sent out some Tweets earlier claiming to be homeless. He says he has been on the street since wrapping the Web-based series If I Can Dream in October.
“Alright so I didn’t want to bring my person (sic) life to my fans but I’m about to freak out if I don’t tell yall the truth!” he wrote in the wee hours of Tuesday morning before dropping the bombshell: “Ever since IICD ended I’ve been kinda homless! Sleepin on the street and behind buildings.”
After much a ton of response from the Tweet, Alex sent out another message clarifying his situation. ”I have money! And soon I will have a place to stay! I just wanted to let yall know! I’m not some rich spoiled kid! That I’ve had to hustle,” and then throwing out that “I don’t mind sleepin on the street as long as I get my chance!”
Anyways this Tweet of poverty and homelessness was a pretty good move as we had otherwise forgotten all about him. Well played sir!
