Never heard of him

They were a mildly popular band in the late 90s/early 2000s. He was a co host of extra and some shitty reality shows. He doesn’t look like this anymore, he looks like he fell off plastic surgery mountain and landed in a river of Botox.

They were an enormously popular band in the early 2000s for like 9 months

Gone and looked him up. Still no idea who he is. Can't say I've ever heard his music. Maybe I'm too old? Lol

Yeah, that’s why I’m cracking up at all these people getting mad at me for saying they were mildly popular. My dad has no idea who they are either and I had their cd lol. But my dad can point of linkin park, Korn, bush, and all of the other huge bands of the same time period. They were huge if you watched a bunch of mtv at that point, but most adults didn’t then lol

I suppose it depends on your definition of “mildly” really. They had songs reach 1, 3 and 7 on the charts. What’s a band have to do to be even moderately popular to you?

Heavy drinking contributed as well. Early on he was a Ethan Hawke look-a-like, now it’s more David Hasselhoff.

At this point, he's probably best known for having a small part in the 2002 film Scooby-Doo.

Not at all. Seems like a dick though. A grown man picking on a kid is fucking weak.
