In a perfect world. The first 24 hrs he was in the house, he became the target of choice for condescending twatwaffles across DS and Twitter. It was never enough to simply say "I've never heard of him". It was always accompanied by either "I've never heard of him" because only idiots watch shows like his, therefore if you've heard of him, you're an idiot, and I'm not, or "I've never heard of him," but his hat is stupid, his abs are stupid, and he's American, so he must be stupid.

All this time later they're still screaming about how can he possibly be famous when nobody watches his show, and no matter how patiently you explain that he's paid by Reebok to wear their shoes, GNC to shill their vitamins, appeared on pretty much every entertainment and chat show in the US, often multiple times, they still insist he can't be famous because they've never personally heard of him, and somehow that means he's a nobody and should never have been allowed in the first place.

The people who said they'd give him the benefit of the doubt were few and far between.
