Oh, I know him - he did the voice for Saddam Hussein in the South Park Movie. Either that or he is the poster child for Ritalin.

Thanks for the link, I think...  ;D

Is that his real voice?  Cause if so, he'd have an awesome career as a singing Chipmunk ;D

That's what I was thinking.
did some research..Fred is
Lucas Cruikshank is a 15 year old director and actor who got his start by making videos with his two cousins John and Katie and posting them on youtube. Together, they are known as JKL Productions. Recently, Lucas decided to make his videos solo and came up with the character "Fred". Fred is an annoying six year old with an uncaring mother who is most noted for his sped up voice. Lucas has said that he created the first Fred video to poke fun at video bloggers who talk about every single thing that they're doing in the video and etc. The video received tons of positive feedback, and Lucas continues to post videos in the Fred series, which he edits, directs, and acts in by himself. When not making videos, Lucas auditions for movie and TV roles and also pitches ideas to television channels. He is also a dancer and takes jazz, tap, and hip hop classes. Lucas resides in Columbus, Nebraska with his two brothers and five sisters. He is the middle child.

I don't know how or why some people get so popular on YouTube.

One of them is Chris Crocker. All he/she had to do was whine about Britney Spears. I'm sorry, but I never liked Britney Spears to begin with. She is a human, but she chose the path to live and It's not my fault that her life is fudgeed-up.

And it looks like Fred will be the 2009 YouTube Man!

Hey!  The kid is 15, 15 is annoying, but it does show a lot of creativity, and without the voice it is kinda funny.  Cut the kid some slack and come back in 5 years.
