With the invention of YouTube and Myspace and many other Internet outlets people are reaching celebrity status from the comfort of their homes. Mike Posner and Soulja Boy both used Myspace and YouTube to post their music in order to create a fan base. Their use of the Internet to promote their work has not only elevated them to celebrity status but also helped get them "discovered" and signed my record labels. Sarah Hyland is an actress/ comedian who also you YouTube to create a fan base and get "discovered", after her "La Sarah" YouTube video became an Internet hit, shows such as MadTV and Punked asked her to be part of their programs.
below is a link to Sarah Hyland's YouTube video and Mike Posner's Myspace.
