Im really confused about social networking celebritys?

So the other day I was looking on my gfs wall and i saw her post a status talking about someone named mikkel angelus. usually im not a jealous person but she cheated on me not long ago so I have been kinda worried about her cheating again. so I searched this guy on facebook and he has a lot of people commenting on his wall and liking and commenting his statuses. plus right now his friends list is at 4999 people. and when i was searching his name on facebook he has a like page to. also found a couple fan pages. when I asked my gf about him she said he was facebook famous. I searched his name on google and before i even finished typing his name a drop bar came down with like 8 or 9 names and his name was second on the drop list. when i searched him his name had a thousands of results. i even found a picture while searching thru google of this screen shot. The picture was of google and someone searching his name and in the picture he had almost 2 1/2 million results. Even though there isnt that many results now. I still found a lot of websites especially facebook and twitter that were talking about him. The only think I can't find is really anything that explains why he is so popular on the internet. The only thing I have found out so far is with chacha. I asked . how did mikkel angelus become so popular on fb? and it replied with

Mikkel Angelus was able to get famous on Facebook , much like Tila Tiquila did on Myspace. Mikkel Angelus' viral fame, similar to Tila Tequila, started by using popular social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, & Tumblr. Just his main Facebook profile alone, is connected to around ( incl. subscribers ) 15K+ active profiles, world-wide.

Mikkel Angelus has many additional followers throughout several other various pages, that are created and maintained by many of his supporters. Like Tila Tequila on Myspace, Mikkel Angelus blogs daily to his followers about common interests. It's due to his large number of devotees and the time they invest into him, that constructed and established his rank as a viral Facebook/Social Networking celebrity.

The reason im asking this is because i dont understand how this guy got so popular. im not very good with facebook and stuff like that and i have never use twitter. so could someone help explain the answer i got from chacha? im just really confused. All i really figured out was that he became popular and has a lot of people who following him.

Could someone please explain what a facebook netwoking celebrity is? I think that might help me understand why he became popular. if there is anyone out there who knows of him, can you please tell me why so many people like him? did he do something to get internet famous?

That's a bloody good question! I've heard that name before. He probably just posted some interesting comments about something and people just enjoy it. But I can't wait to read some other peoples comments. I'd also like to know how some Joe shmo becomes famous like that. I'm sure he's not making money or anything. Like tila tequila was hot and the did a porn so...
