Chasing Cameron

What a disgrace.

They left a black boy behind in another country and didn't do anything about it. Pays to be white in America.

This show should be banned.

Shame on Netflix.

this show is so good. i couldn't stop watching it. i finished the whole show in one night. i know i am supposed to hate it but i definitely do not and am now having withdrawals without another season to binge. this show has so much drama and gives an inside look at social media influencers life. the magcon boys encountered a lot of problems along the way and overcame a lot in the first season of this show. can't wait to see what season 2 has to offer.

This "show" is about a group of kids, who are complete morons. They think they are celebrities because a bunch of really young girls follow them on social media. It mainly focuses on Cameron who will say things such as "I like hanging out with my best friend because he doesn't look at me like everyone else does, he looks at me like I'm normal"... This 20 year old is constantly playing with his hair and acting like a complete jackass, disrespecting his peers in the process. You can tell he never had a father figure in his life, someone to bring him back down to reality and spank that butt. Its easy to see his Mom let him get away with anything and everything growing up. He acts like he thinks he is a God or something, he has no idea.

They call each other "the talent" when speaking about the other members of the group. I watched all the episodes and I am still trying to figure out what their talent is. In reality, they have no talent at all, unless being a complete idiot and being extremely conceded is a talent. I watched all the episodes because I couldn't not watch this train wreck of a show and how messed up these kids are. And I guess that is the brilliance in the show, you can't help but to watch it. But most normal people look at these guys and shake their head in disbelief because of what they are saying. Its kind of like the Anna Nicole Smith or Whitney Houston reality shows, you just cant help but to watch the train wreck. Most people thank God that they are not in their shoes because they really have no idea what is actually important in life. But they hopefully will one day once their 2 minutes of fame is over, and trust me, because they have no talent that time is coming sooner rather than later.

I have got to admit it: I found this series absolutely riveting - but for all the wrong reasons. It was like watching a train wreck or a car smash; I wanted to look away, but I couldn't. I was gobsmacked both by these delusional, self-important, spoiled-brats of young men and by the oodles of screaming girls (and some boys) who follow after them. I just couldn't believe people like this exist! These good-looking, sometimes personable, sometimes obnoxious, entitled but extremely untalented (and extremely unaware of it) young men walk around as if what they do online and in life actually has some value or merit. They have the hubris to refer to themselves during this series as 'the talent' (despite having none) and 'influencers'. Heaven help us if these people actually have influence, but I guess they may because it seems there are actually young people who are caught up in all this, attending their idols' appearances, screaming, fainting and acting like they were at a Beatles concert in the 1960's. It's absolutely unbelievable. I hope for their sakes that these young guys made money out of this stage of their lives and that they have invested it wisely, because at some point it will all come crashing down and they'll be forgotten. It has to happen. (Please let it be soon!)

This is a fascinating and scary insight into the cult of celebrity, although I don't think that was the makers' intention. I recommend that every adult and definitely every parent should watch at least a few episodes of this. It's an eyeopener and it's scary.

At first I thought this was a parody. Then I thought it was a nightmare. All these young men wanting to be famous without a talent, other than persistence and youth. A few FIND their love of music after their instagram fame. But then I got hooked and it just became sad. One kid had a song that was so similar to another rap song I am waiting for a law suit. Lots of the kids (mostly white) have sad backgrounds with divorce or bullying. Cameron is a smart kid with business smarts. But what are they doing? Do the ever read a book? They never discuss anything deep, but only their own fans and money. Their handlers (except for one Mom) look bewildered. The idiotic girls, who in another generation would simply be Tiger Beat subscribers, become a real security threat. All this to be noticed. Excellent look at the downside of fame. One manager was even texting while driving! That's the idiotic world they live in. I think Cameron will survive with his hustle. Good male model material, which was his original goal. The others I fear will meet a sad fate of many child actors. Weird show but addicting.
