The stars of viral videos don't last in the spotlight forever. Denny Blaze's "Average Homeboy" was posted online in 2005 and blew up. Blaze is currently starring in a 20-minute-long movie about what happened after the video was shot in 1989 and about its release to the public nearly ten years ago. Blaze joined the RTM crew to talk about his new project and his life since his 15 minutes of internet fame.
