And February’s “On The Rise” winner is...theDOMINICshow
Wednesday, February 23, 2011
The people have spoken, and the people love Dominic! That’s right, D-trix from
theDOMINICshow
won this month’s
“On The Rise” contest
, the program that lets you decide which up-and-coming YouTube user gets a spot on the homepage. Thanks to your support (and votes!), D-trix is featured today.
D-trix is a talented dancer with a big love for comedy. When he’s not
spoofing Justin Bieber
or teaching us
how to rap
, he’s dancing out a surprisingly
romantic Valentine’s message
.
And, now, a few more words from the man himself:
“Hey, everyone! First off I would just like to say ‘Thank You’ for all the support and for getting me here today. This experience thus far has been a blast and I extremely honored to be a part of the poll. How it all began was I was on reality television (So You Think You Can Dance and America's Best Dance Crew) and from there I wanted to stay in the eye so I thought YOUTUBE was the best route for me. But, all in all, I totally wouldn't be here if it weren't for my great friend
Ryan Higa
, who pretty much introduced me to this whole YouTube experience. So to all my supporters old and new I just want to say THANK YOU times a thousand and stay tuned for more! Much love!”
