Who is Tina Chen? She is actually Kristina Chen. She wants to have one million friends in her Myspace account. What is she doing to reach that certain number? She sings. She sings with her whole heart and soul, and eventually results in self-embarrassment. However, it does not show any signs that she feels that kind of humiliation. Besides, more and more people are watching her beyond mediocre YouTube performance among all other things she has been doing online.

Then the question starts to pop, why most of those who are online anticipate her next song:

Geek is always fun. Sometimes being a teenager is really tough for some people. Wanting to have friends may result in some drastic ways to get attention. Eventually, attention mostly hoards people to praise if not to criticize. But hey, there’s always a friend or two among ten people who is curious in watching her. They may laugh out of amusement or mockery, but either way Tina has caught their attention, right?

Desperation for an outfit. The midriff exposure, the glasses and that outfit. Oh yeah, hideous but eye-catching. Nothing is glamorous about Tina’s fashion sense, but someone else’s disgust over her makes a hundred or more. She makes Ugly Betty very pretty.

Remix karaoke style or lesser than that. Listening to her sing is like being so wasted, and then not knowing what the hell is happening. Is it the end of the world already? She sounds good somehow if the alcohol is taking over the body. Or, maybe there are more and more people out there who are frustrated to realize their desire to be popular, but not Tina Chen. She has guts to sing all the way, how ever she would sound like. Imagine that, no holds barred style. Not all people are motivated enough, especially humiliating one’s self to the world.

The “almost there” moves. Look at those moves, if she would just move a little bit more, she would definitely become the new Britney. Well, she needs a choreographer alright! With all the YouTube attention, at no time, she will have a complete production team. But until then, she is really funny doing those dance action. Are they even dance moves, or Tina moves?

Fans appeal and then some. It’s either too much beauty or too least of it. Extremes always work just fine. Why? Because most people are too skeptic to become the most, all they do is dream of becoming. They stop there, but not Tina. Fans admire this quality in a person. They follow because they don’t have what it takes, even if they do, they just don’t have enough drive to push through. Again, not Tina Chen.

Who does not want to be famous? Everybody does at some point. Fame comes with money. Who does not want to be rich? Tina Chen represents the spirit of hope that popularity can indeed comes in many colors. There is always a way to be known. That one million friends Tina wants, it’s not impossible. It is just a matter of time now.
