He's failed at everything he's done ever since.

Oh yeah, that weird guy from pre Internet days. He was in that movie Crossroads. Looks like he's in serious debt.

Holy crap. I literally googled him the other day for shits and giggles. Wasn't Dave Holmes (I think that's his name) the runner up? And he stayed with MTV and other networks much, much longer.

He looks like an anime character on meth. Is he wearing pants in that picture?

I remember when he had a music video on TRL. I think it was called "See You Around".

It sucked.

Yup. Still has a gig at FX doing one of their random movie things where they show Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer a grip.

Back to the topic a week or so ago I read something about Jesse Camp on AV Club. Twas a fun read.

It mainly reminded me how much I missed TRL. Oh to be young and shitty taste. Well shittier taste.

I don't know if anime character on meth would be the right phrase. Maybe something along the lines of weeaboo OC on meth. As for pants, I think he might be wearing pants but the angle of his pose looks rather off. The article posted by OP does mention he made a visit to a meth lab and a religious cult so perhaps the meth phrase would be rather fitting.
