LOL!!! Man Pranks Crowds At Times Square By Posing As A Fake Celebrity

"My whole life, I've always wondered what it would be like to be famous," Brett Cohen, Comedian and Internet radio host muses in a voiceover.

He posed as a celebrity and had fake paparazzi and a camera crew follow him around Times Square.

As Cohen and his crew walked around Times Square, dozens of star-struck bystanders asked to take photos with the baby-faced prankster.
One of Cohen's cohorts filmed interviews with a few of the star-struck "fans," who believed Cohen was either an action star or a pop singer.

“Where do you know him from?” the interviewer asks two young 'fans'.
“Uh, was he Spiderman?” one of them says.
“Yea,” the interviewer replies.
“He’s a very good actor,” the young man says.
“So you liked him,” the interviewer asks.
“Yea, yea,” the duped fan says.
In another interview, a man who thinks Cohen is a singer says, "I heard his first single, which is good. I don't know the name of it, but I heard it on the radio."
Later, another one gushes, "I think he's excellent, I think he's absolutely awesome, I think he's got a great future in the movie business."
"I just took a picture with him, I feel special," he says.
The clip ends with Cohen, still in his celebrity getup but sans entourage, walking unnoticed to subway stop.

Lol!! That's the celeb power!! People are gushing and drooling without even knowing him!!
