Hey, so you know that dude who’s been wandering around Times Square in his underwear, a cowboy hat and a guitar for the past bazillion years?
It finally paid off.
Robert Burck, aka The Naked Cowboy, has inked a reality TV deal.
Burck he will judge the talents of street performers such as himself in an American Idol-style competition.
“I want to see people like me, the real deal,” the Naked Cowboy said in an interview with the New York Post. “I’m looking for character more than anything. You could be the greatest musician in the world, but if you stand in jeans and a T-shirt next to me, no one will notice you.”
The show is set to air on Country Music Television.
You know what I want to see? I want a reality show about those mole people who live under the subways in NYC. I read a book about them when I first moved there, and then spent the rest of my time there staring out the windows of the subway cars hoping for a glimpse of the mole people. Are you listening, Hollywood? I WANT MOLE PEOPLE!
what the crap book is that?
A naked cowboy on County Music Television? This proves what I thought all along that country music is gay.
Teehee I totally have a pic with that guy…
Oooo what was the book about the mole people?
What??? Are you serious? I’ve never heard about mole people but I’d love to know more. What’s the name of the book?
hahah!! i used to do the same, staring through the windows hoping to see a pair of lonely mole person eyes.
Here’s the book, it’s called The Mole People:
