This is a late tribute to Aziz Shavershian better known as the internet celebrity Zyzz. Whoever’s reading this without knowing this Zyzz persona, heres a recap:
Zyzz was an Australian internet celebrity and social networking (I hate that term) phenomenon who gained a large following by his godlike sculpted body, his bizarre antics and his overwhelming confidence. Unfortunately he passed away in August, 2011 in a Thailand sauna aged 22.
Zyzz was the epitome of accomplishment as percieved by many, MANY males (and some females). He was earning considerably amounts of money, had the perfect body and could pull any chick he wanted - in essence the 3 most sought after talents that are hardwired into the male brain.
But what caused this relentless infatuation that the young public was so hypotised by? It's was a success story, it's the ugly duckling tale, it's the caterpillar that morphed into a butterfly. Zyzz was a weakling, a 90 pound skinny kid who would stay holed up playing World of Warcraft all day and masturbating to cartoon porn at night, but then he discovered bodybuilding (and steroids lol).
His whole demeanor changed, Zyzz himself stated stated that he feels fucking awesome taking control of a room not with force but with sheer confidence and energy. I personally met him twice at Fitness First thinking "whos this guy? is this Zyzz? hes massive."
So what I want to share most is that Zyzz was an inspiration and motivation for ALOT of people. He became a beacon of success to many nerds and casual gym goers alike, that it WAS ATTAINABLE to the average joe - the sayings Zyzz used on the internet were becoming as common as "hello"
-"come at me, brah"
-"u mad?"<are u angry?>
-"u jelly?"<are you jealous>
-"u mirin?" <are you admiring?his body>
-"FUARRRKK" <fuck, when something good/surprising/awesome happens>
People were looking into Zyzz's antics and applying it (hopefully in a positive direction) in their own lives by joining a gym to get healthy, coming out of depression, becoming less lazy and more motivated, getting a job and so on.
But Zyzz did have his share of negative feedback, many people were calling him a faggot, a dickhead, a fucking idiot, why is he wearing eyeliner?lol, his hair looks shit, his tattoos look fucking disgusting etc.
Zyzz was the persona the public saw but not the real Aziz, close friends of mine and his say Aziz was a funny, humble young adult who took nothing serious and was extremely loyal.
Rest in Peace
Son of Zeus, Brother of Hercules, Father of Aesthetics
