Super Wicked Remix New Version of the Bedroom Intruder! All New Version! Kevin Antoine Dodson[1] (born 1985)[2] is a citizen of Huntsville, Alabama whose interview on local television became an Internet sensation and resulted in an auto-tuned song with The Gregory Brothers which "has sold thousands of copies on iTunes and appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 list".[3] Dodson's interview was prompted after a house intruder attempted to rape his sister. Dodson was interviewed on July 28, 2010, by NBC affiliate WAFF-48 News after the attempted rape of his sister by an intruder in her bedroom, in the "projects" of Lincoln Park.[2][4] A frame from the viral "Bed Intruder Song" music video, which sourced its footage from an interview NBC affiliate WAFF-48 News conducted with Antoine. The video of the interview caught attention due to the passionate and flamboyant style of his delivery, speaking directly to the camera, in which he directly addressed the people of his neighborhood as well as the would-be rapist, and his use of street vernacular.[5][2] The reactions were mixed. Viewers phoned in to the TV station to complain that interviews with people such as Dodson reflected poorly on the community,[5][2] whereupon the station defended broadcasting the interview by stating that censoring such people is "far worse". To others he was a hero.[2] Jonathan Capehart, editorial page writer for The Washington Post, wrote that Dodson became an instant Internet sensation because "in this age of fake reality TV, he puts the real in reality",[5] to which he later added that Dodson "is one of the strongest people we've seen in a while".[6] The video of Dodson's television interview "went viral" and then inspired several musical remixes, including a video by musical group The Gregory Brothers, known as the "Bed Intruder Song", which in turn inspired many further covers and remixes, including one by comedian Dane Cook and a rock version by a team formed by Hayley Williams of Paramore, Jordan Pundik of New Found Glory, and Ethan Luck of Relient K.[7] Dodson was interviewed for the Today Show on NBC about his new found "Web superstardom". Dodson's YouTube video was called "one of the most watched online videos ever" with over 16 million hits.[8] Dodson has done radio shows in Australia, has fans in London and he's always being stopped in by people in Huntsville who recognize him.[9] Dodson has a website in which he asks for donations to assist his family in moving "out of the hood".[10] The money, as well as money from sales of "Bed Intruder" on iTunes and merchandise such as T-shirts, will go to helping his family buy a new home and setting up a foundation for juvenile diabetes, a disease that has afflicted both his sister and his mother.[11] In August of 2010, Dodson noted the irony of having "a hit on iTunes, but we're still in the projects."[12] Dodson grew up in Chicago, and moved to Huntsville in 2004,[1] where he attends Virginia College, working on an associate degree in business administration.[1] He also works as a hairstylist.[2] Antoine Dodson is the oldest of six children.[2] In an interview with CBS, Dodson told Shira Lazar that he had been a rape victim in the past.[11]
