- Hey, guy.
(serene music)
The rumors are true.
I've been a victim of identity theft.
Turns out, there's some guy
going around pretending to be me.
And he's older than me and he's taller than me.
And he used to play basketball with LeBron James.
You know who I used to play basketball with?
No one.
Because when I tried out for my fifth-grade basketball team,
I missed all 10 shots
and they have not gotten back to me yet.
Fingers crossed.
I've had to deal with the comparisons my entire life.
- Oh, guys, look, Drew Gooden's on the cover of a PS2 game.
Wow, that's so cool.
What's the other one doing?
Oh, he's peeing his pants.
Gross.
(gasping) Drew Gooden just got drafted
to the NBA, fourth overall.
He's going to make so much money.
Are you peeing a different pair of pants?
Go to the bathroom.
There's a regional chain of quick-service
Mexican restaurants called Tijuana Flats.
And his picture is hanging up in every location.
You think I'm trying to look at that every time I go in
on a Tuesday to get two tacos, chips and a drink for $5.99?
No.
I'm trying to get two tacos, chips and a drink for $5.99.
I don't need the comparisons right now.
I'm hungry and goddammit, I just peed my pants again.
(tone droning)
Sorry about that.
I've actually wanted to make this video for a long time.
The two most common DMs I get are,
"Bro, I just saw a roadwork ahead sign.
"Did you know they have those in real life?"
And then the other one is usually screenshots of Google
searches where people are looking up Cody Ko,
or whoever, and then Google is like,
"Hey, did you also want to look at this guy?
"You know, the guy from YouTube."
And it actually is kind of confusing sometimes because
even though I like to think that I can tell us apart,
Google uses our information interchangeably.
So, if you search Drew Gooden height, it's his height.
I'm actually about five foot three.
But if you search Drew Gooden age, it's my age.
But then if you scroll down a bit.
When was Drew Gooden born?
September 24th, 1981.
That's why he's 38.
And that's why he's 26.
People also searched for Danny Gonzales, 25,
Cody Ko, 29 and Danny Gonzalez, 44.
One of the biggest disparities between us,
besides everything, is net worth.
Where the other Drew Gooden played in the NBA
for 13 seasons and made over $75 million, I didn't.
It's almost a little sad for me to Google my own net worth
and have it be so many decimals off.
Technically, there is one thing we do have in common.
Now that he's retired from basketball,
he is a part of the Washington Wizards broadcasting team.
I know because I snuck a pic of the back of his head
when I was at a Magic game this year.
Not to brag or anything.
But my point is, he does commentary for NBA games.
I do commentary on YouTube.
I'm just saying, it's pretty crazy.
We are We Are Two Different People Tour Part Two, anyone?
Sorry, Danny, you've been replaced.
Now there's two reasons I want to make this video.
One is to clear up the confusion.
People mentioned this a lot.
And even though they're already on Google
when they find it and they could easily
just Google a little bit more and figure it out,
I'm just clearing things up for you
so you didn't have to type one extra sentence.
But the real reason I wanted to make video
is because I have found several articles written about me
and there is nothing funnier to me than reading
factual information about myself that is entirely untrue.
One of the weirdest ones is trendcelebsnow.com.
On trendcelebsnow.com,
he is one of the successful YouTube star.
He is ranked on the list of those famous people
who were born on October 26th, 1993.
This one's really funny to me because
it lists all these stats about me.
Things that I don't know who would be searching for.
I don't know who needs this information.
Height, not available.
Weight, not available.
Body measurements, not available.
Eye color, unknown.
Hair color, unknown.
Gee, if only there was somewhere you could go
on the internet where you could see what I look like.
Estimated net worth in 2019, $21 million.
Previous year's net worth, $21 million.
Annual salary, under review.
I like that it's not just unknown.
It's under review as if they have
a team of researchers working around the clock
trying to figure out how much money I made.
Does Drew dead or alive?
As per our current database, Drew Gooden is still alive.
(loudly sighing)
Is he having any relationship affair?
This information is not available.
Why is Drew Gooden famous?
Drew Gooden became popular
for being a successful YouTube star.
Once people realized that I was a successful YouTube star,
that's when I became a successful YouTube star.
There's also Celebs Life Reel,
which has a lot of the same information.
But stylistically, I gotta say,
I love that the first thing I see on my page
is the biggest, grainiest picture of me I've ever seen.
Profession, YouTuber, YouTube star.
Ethnicity, unknown.
If only there was some way
to figure out what ethnicity I am.
If anyone has access to that information,
please let me know.
Drew Gooden is an American YouTube star
who is best known for uploading pranks,
reactions, vlogs, podcasts,
and challenge videos to his channel.
That's not only funny because most of that isn't true,
but also that's the vaguest description
that would cover 90% of YouTube.
Childhood.
He has not given any insight into his childhood, until now.
It seems that he is very focused on his career.
I wish that I had the time to share with you guys
the details of what it was like for me growing up
but I'm so focused on my career.
I just, I can't do it at the moment.
One thing that did freak me out though, is weight.
72 kilograms.
How the fuck did they know that?
I had to see how much that was in pounds.
But, holy shit, that is exactly right.
How did you know that?
Where did you measure me?
This one I thought was called infamouspeople.com.
But I realized I read it wrong.
It's infofamouspeople.com.
I really wanted to be infamous.
Too bad.
Not a whole lot to see here.
But they did integrate a Facebook
comment section on the bottom.
Let's comment immediately with Drew Gooden.
Kathy says, "Great show tonight.
"Loved seeing Gail, she's a hoot."
Tony says, "Gorgeous in everything that makes you, you."
Tony, you're going to make me blush.
And Todd says, "Beautiful."
So yeah, I'm pretty sure
they're definitely talking about me.
What's interesting about this one though,
it looks like you can edit these paragraphs.
And I thought, well,
who better to edit information about me than me?
But then it opens up complaint data
where you type in your name and then it says,
please take responsibility for what you write.
Which makes it seem like I'm gonna
get in trouble if I put something wrong.
But I just filled it out to the best of my knowledge
and nothing happened.
So that was a little disappointing.
I almost forgot.
I was looking at some of these on my phone the other day.
And there's another website called allfamous.org.
This one's cool because on my profile,
it has a button that takes you to a similar YouTube star.
So I was really excited to see who it would take me to.
Maybe Danny, Curtis, Cody.
No, it took me to Eve Franke,
a six-year-old girl, who is the star
of one of her family's most-watched videos,
baby climbs out of crib.
And that's who allfamous.org
thinks I'm most similar to, a little girl.
I think I saved the best two for last.
This one's just about me
and then you'll see what the other one's about in a sec.
But this website's called findcelebritywiki.com.
They pretty much alternate my pronouns
from sentence to sentence.
Drew Gooden is an American YouTuber and he was born
on October 26, 1993 in Orlando, United States.
Her home city is Orlando and nationality, American.
He was born in her mother's home city,
in Orlando, United States.
Does that mean that I was born in the city
that my mother was in when I was born?
Because I think that's true for everybody.
She is 26 years old.
He is currently a professional YouTuber.
He is a renowned YouTuber in United States
and another neighboring country.
But we won't tell you which one.
He is a very efficient American YouTuber.
That's right.
I've managed to make an entire YouTube channel
as just one person.
So I'm not even sure what this means.
Her body measurements are 42 inch.
Does that mean tall, 42-inch tall or wide?
Is that my waist size?
I'm not sure.
He has dark shading hair and dark black eyes.
Then, annual/monthly salary.
So I either make $50,000 a year or $50,000 a month.
Source of income, YouTuber income source.
The most supply of cash
for Drew Gooden is YouTuber, currently.
We have a tendency to don't have enough knowledge
relating to vehicles for nightly/yearly wage, and so on.
We're changing presently.
Oh, chest size, 42 inch.
Okay, not waist, chest size.
So I may be short and slender but I'm also very busty.
Bicep size, under review.
That makes me think they're watching me with binoculars
through my window, trying to catch a glimpse of my biceps.
Body shape, not know.
Sorry, guy, we not know his body shape.
Hobbies, YouTuber.
Likes, YouTuber.
Dislikes, under review.
Well, we know he likes YouTube and it is one of his hobbies,
but we have no idea what he doesn't like,
because all we know him from is YouTube.
My address, of course, is Orlando, United States.
When I buy things online, I just get them shipped to
Orlando, United States and they'll find me eventually.
So, that website would have been my favorite
if it wasn't for this other one.
Shout out to @bichhh_s on Twitter for sending this to me.
This is an article called Look Into the Love Life
of YouTuber, Drew Gooden, and his wife, Amanda.
This is one of my favorite things I've ever read in my life.
But I don't want to read it by myself.
I have to do it with, of course, my wife, Amanda.
Oh, honey.
Oh, there you are.
All right, you ready to look into our love life?
- Yeah. - Come on, get excited.
- Meh. - Okay, there we go.
- [Amanda] Ecelebritymirror.
- It'll be like looking into a mirror.
- An Ecelebritymirror.
- An Ecelebritymirror, of course.
I like the way it starts.
"Drew joined the YouTube community on August 21st, 2015,
"and since has become a YouTube sensation
"with over 2 million people subscribed to this channel.
"Speaking of his love life." - It's the same thing.
- Same thing.
I do love my YouTube channel.
"We all know how funny Drew as a commentator is.
"But how much of us actually know him personally?
"Today, let's get to know his love life."
- How Drew met his better half?
I'm your better half? - Uh-huh?
The other half is five foot eight
and has a 42-inch chest size.
- Oh, and I'm the better half.
- And you're my much better half.
"When you are in the show business,
"things are bound to happen."
I mean, yeah, that's true of anything.
Things are bound to happen.
- In any business, really.
- "A similar case happened to Drew
"when a girl commented on one of his Vines."
And who was that girl?
- Uh, Mariah Carey. - Uh, Mariah Carey?
She said, bad Vine, delete your account.
"She commented that Drew looked so cute in his Vines.
"And that was the starting point
"of something great, something extraordinary.
"Soon, Drew and his future beau started chatting
"and in an instant, made a connection.
"After awhile, they decided it's time
"they should meet and so they did."
- How did they know that?
- "Nearly three months after meeting one another,
"Drew proposed to his wife."
- No, it was over a year. - It was a year.
We were together for a year before we got engaged.
It was not three months that we got engaged.
- Yeah, I was wondering where they got that from.
I guess they're referencing this Tweet where I say April.
So they assume it was all.
It was April, we met each other,
did long distance for three months and then got engaged.
- I think they're just going
off of dates when we posted things.
- Right, they're trying their best.
It's just funny.
- "Now they're living a comfortable life.
- "Enjoying each other's company."
Little do they know, we can't stand each other.
- But we're quarantined so we can't go anywhere.
- "There is not one bit of a doubt
"that Drew Gooden's wife is gorgeous."
- Is there any doubt?
- Not one bit of a doubt.
"Drew himself has admitted that he is fortunate."
- What about me?
Why is there nothing about my feelings?
- Because our relationship is from
my point of view and my point of view only.
"He cherishes every moment he spends with her."
- Aw, did you write this?
- I sure did (chuckling).
We've never fought.
We've never gotten annoyed.
Certainly not during quarantine
when we're with each other 27 hours a day.
- "Drew and Amanda
"sharing a moment together." - "Sharing a moment together."
- No, that was just me being like, here, look, fake laugh.
(both chuckling)
- Yeah, this was a very posed picture
as all of our wedding photos were.
You kind of have to stop and like (chuckling)
we're having a great time.
"Not only that, his incredibly talented partner
"has been featured numerous times on his YouTube channel."
- Incredibly talented? - Mm-hmm.
"He says that it's extremely easy to make Vines
"with such a talented actress, while referring to his wife."
You guys wanna see (chuckling) what they're referring to?
- Babe, come on (sighing), come on.
- Yeah, that was very much sarcastic.
- Babe, come on.
- "Drew and his beau have come so far
"from being complete strangers to one another,
"to become the best of friends, to a married couple."
- You could say that about anyone.
- Literally every couple in the world,
at one point, was complete strangers.
"How is their relationship?
"To fans of Drew, it must come as no surprise
"that he and his better half are quite a lovely couple.
"They spend time together enjoying a little walk
"or just chilling all by themselves."
- How do they know us?
- How do they know we chill by ourselves?
- And go on little walks. - Just a little walk.
"The pair also have traveled to different locations,
"mostly romantic ones,
"where they are seen sharing a kiss or two."
- Who's watching us?
- "Whether it's something fun or something boring,
"Drew Gooden's wife, Amanda, is always ready
"to back her beloved husband up."
- Wait, I'm ready to back you up?
- Yeah.
When I get into a fight, you're ready to like, Thor, babe.
- Hey, that's my husband.
"Furthermore, many fans want the loving couple
"to have kids of their own soon."
- Do they?
- Well, I have an announcement.
(quietly gasping)
It's not going to be for a few more years.
- Yeah, it's gonna be a while.
That was fun.
That was pretty much it.
Anything you have to say to the fans out there
who demand more of you in every video?
- Follow me on amandaisgooden.
- Oh, yeah, she made a new Instagram, Amanda Gooden.
- I'm part of the Gooden family.
- Yeah, we're finally married. - Good.
- You wanna go ahead and leave people
with your famous catchphrase?
- Babe, come on.
come on.
- We've gotten to look at
a lot of interesting websites today.
How about we learn how to make our own?
Hi.
Are you suddenly craving a hot dog?
It might be because you know exactly what I'm about to say.
I'm founder and CEO of pictureofhotdog.com,
the world's most normal website.
And I'm proud to introduce another delicious topping
to our shared internet hot dog, basketball.
Bottoms up.
To get a taste of our sportiest hot dog yet,
head to pictureofhotdog.com, a website
I proudly made using today's sponsor Squarespace.
Making a website doesn't have to be easy,
but by using Squarespace's wide array
of user-friendly tools, you can make sure that it is.
One of the most common reasons people make
their own website is to create an online store
so they can sell their art, their clothing,
or a service they provide.
And Squarespace has everything you need to make that happen.
Before I outsourced my own merch,
I used to do it all myself,
using my very own Squarespace website.
And it was such a simple process.
I would seriously recommend it to anybody.
You have full customization over
every little thing in your store.
But it was still intuitive enough that I never felt like
I wasn't able to maintain a consistent design throughout.
It was easy for people to make purchases.
It was easy for me to keep track of all their orders
and overall, it was just something I really enjoyed doing.
But maybe you don't want to make an online store and
you'd rather create your own celebrity biography website
with a bunch of information that no one would ever need.
Squarespace has you covered there, too.
In fact, I made my own statistics page
on pictureofhotdog.com just to show you how easy it is.
To get started with a 14-day trial,
head to squarespace.com/drew.
And when you're ready to launch your website,
use promo code drew to get 10% off your first purchase.
Also, thanks to everyone who's been
sending me their websites through Twitter.
I really enjoy seeing what you guys are making.
You're way more creative than I am.
This is the most my brain can come up with.
That being said, I suddenly have this
overwhelming urge to rotate my chair.
Ah, that's better.
Well, I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up here
because it is so dark outside and it's only 3:00 PM.
But that's what summer is like in Orlando, United States.
Thanks, everybody, for watching my video.
If you ever find a weird website like this written about me,
an article or some biography, or whatever, send it to me.
I love reading these.
This was a really fun video to make.
But until then, I must bid you adieu
and turn off my camera.
All right, bye.
