Backpack Kid | Where Are They Now? | How He Turned To Christianity & Fortnite Lawsuit

In today’s constant news cycle, viral celebrities don’t always get
their 15-minutes of fame -- more often than not, it’s more like
15-seconds – but the enigmatic content creator known as The
Backpack Kid is looking to change that narrative. This young man
kicked off one of the most popular dance crazes ever a few years
ago when he dropped “The Floss” on all of our unsuspecting
eyeballs. But as much as that dance might have captured the minds
and hearts of all those who saw it, typically, if you truly want to
make it as a content creator or influencer, you’ve got to bring a
little more to the table than just one dance move. Thankfully for
the Backpack Kid, whose real name is Russell Horning, he’s got a
few other talents up his sleeve, including the ability to rap.
Look, we live in a world where, inexplicably, the “Cash Me Outside
Girl” has turned her 15-seconds of fame into a full-fledged music
career, so why not The Backpack Kid as well? In today’s episode of
Where Are They Now, we’re gonna see if he can do just that.
