As reality TV continues to gain a larger share of the television and new media landscape, the Hollywood casting industry is seeing a substantially increased need for new types of talent. On-camera experts, “real people” contestants, and larger-than-life personalities are now in constant demand. Simultaneously, talent agencies are watching the demand for traditional talent like TV hosts and classically trained actors decline as shows like Ace of Cakes, WipeOut, Survivor, and Deadliest Catch, all featuring non-traditional talent, grow in popularity.

Meet Lexi Bee's Fans
Culture Buzz Lexi Bee has been famous since 2004 (according to her fans) but in the age of the internet, fame is relative, and as such, most of us were introduced to her last week.

Video: Tyra and The Cuppy Cake Boy
Tyra Banks had a show dedicated to YouTube celebrities, which basically gave her another opportunity to be weird and embarrass herself. I tuned into the show and saw her writhing around on the ground with a 14-year-old boy. Here she is singing some song about baked goods with Cuppy Cake Boy. That Tyra, she's crazy.

Nalts is your average dad turned YouTube comedian who sometimes puts his own kids and relatives in incredibly awkward situations. One of his most famous videos is a video where one of his kids walks around with a fart machine. His latest video has his cousin walking around picking his nose.
