The differences between Netflix’s Fyre Festival documentary and Hulu’s are subtle, but the one thing that Hulu didn’t have was Andy King. If the name doesn’t ring a bell, his face, voice, and words will: “I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh…I’m really’—and I got into my car to drive across the island to take one for the team. And I got to his office fully prepared to suck his d*ck.”
Now in a new interview with Netflix, King says that he’s blown away by the reaction to the documentary. He’s most surprised because he doesn’t have a social media presence of his own.
“When someone reached out last weekend and said, ‘you’re trending’, [I was] like, ‘I don’t even know what trending means.’ People are talking about you… and yesterday people were like, ‘you’re a ME ME’, I’m like ‘What’s a ME ME?’”
However, King believes that the media attention can be used as a force for good. He’s putting his social weight behind the various GoFundMes working to pay back the laborers and workers of Fyre Festival.
That being said, he still doesn’t believe a legacy based on sucking d*ck is something to hang his hat on: “I just don’t necessarily want to be known as the blow job king of the world.”
