We still don't know how Internet prankster Boonk came to be shot twice last week.
But we do know that he was very depressed and acting erratically before the shooting, which has led to speculation he did it himself. He's recovering from his lower body wounds, and yesterday he spoke out for the first time, detailing his struggles with fame and the pressures that come with it.
You wanna know what's going on," Boonk wondered. "All this part about being a celebrity. We got two different lives and living one, you know what I'm saying? We got our celebrity life and we got our personal life. Wanna know what's going on, what's real, what's fake in the industry? Everybody's fake in the industry. You don't know why people around you for what reason. For who you are, or what you got ... Then you got your family. They think you're changing up on them and all this bullshit. It's like a lot to deal with. A lot of pressure. You got two sets of groups attacking you. No matter how much money you got. No matter how many bitches you be fucking. No matter how many cars you got. It's still a lot of pressure ... We deal with our problems our own way. I deal with my problems my own way. Other artists deal with their problems their own way. It's the life we chose."
Do you feel bad for stressed-out "celebrities" like Boonk?
