“I'm gay.”

“I like all types of music: pop, rock and country.”

“My strategy isn't just to get the biggest audience; it's to get a loyal audience.”

“I'm an actor so I've been pursuing movies and I have some TV series ideas to pitch too.”

“I really like the movie 'The Jerk' with Steve Martin.”

“When I started on YouTube, no one talked about getting famous on the Internet or getting discovered on YouTube. I didn't even know it was a possibility.”

“I liked writing before I figured out I liked acting.”

“I love working with crews. Filming the 'Fred' movie, for example, was a blast. You get to be around so many creative, talented people all day, so it's a blast.”

“I think I'm just really lucky to have my Internet career last more than a few months.”

“I think with the 'Fred' videos online, I prefer doing it by myself. I mean it's YouTube. You want to have all the creative control because that's the only place in the world where you get that.”

“For as long as I can remember, I was always creating random characters.”

“One day I hope to meet Ellen Paige - she's an awesome actress.”

“I've been on 'iCarly' and 'Hannah Montana.' And a few other things.”

“I just made random videos with my mom's camera, before YouTube even started. It was just my family and friends in a few spoofs of scary movies and mock talk shows. And then I found out about YouTube so I posted a ton of those videos on there.”

“Judd Apatow is amazing, and everything he does is so cool.”
