Young Swedish comedian owes fame to YouTube
Not the first time this happens. New media like YouTube has helped a lot of people reach a larger audience. The young stand up comedian Björn Gustafsson is 22 years old (born 1986), and the last year has been somewhat of a race for him. He claims to work all the time, meaning (his own words); he doesn’t drink, date or eat unhealthy food.
The good old fashion television helped his carrier in Sweden. But the YouTube numbers speaks for themselves. The videos are in Swedish, but here is one with English subs. And he talks about WoW (more here: Björn Gustafsson on YouTube).
