Magician

The Resume

    (April 28, 1976- )
    Born in Oakdale, New York
    Birth name is Michael Joseph Carbonaro
    Son of Italian parents
    Performs magic live on his hit truTV television show 'The Carbonaro Effect' (2014- )
    Other film and television credits include 'Another Gay Movie,' 'God Bless America,' 'Chappelle's Show,' 'All My Children,' 'Guiding Light,' '30 Rock,' 'Wizards of Waverly Place' and 'Tonight Show with Jay Leno'

Why he might be annoying:

    He admitted that he had a huge crush on the Elliott character in the 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,' movie, and had a ton of posters on his wall of the character when he was younger.
    It was very obvious that he was gay when he was younger, but he didn't come out of the closet until 2014.
    He is a pretty boy.
    He has a cleft chin.
    He is considered a reject version of Criss Angel.
    His magic can be very eerie and too scary at times.
    Sometimes he can come across as egotistical and a smart aleck, especially if someone questions his methods and little secrets on how he really does his magic on television.
    He owns a dozen cats, and claims that his cats are very bored, laying on his couch, watching him do his magic.
    He had a fear of spiders growing up as a child. (Which is very shocking, considering the fact he's a magician, and magicians work with all kinds of creepy crawlers).
    There are rumors that his TV show 'The Carbonaro Effect', might be rehearsed and staged with fake actors.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is of Italian descent.
    He is openly gay.
    He admitted that he didn't come out until 2014, because he was afraid that everyone was gonna judge him and see him as gay, more than seeing him as a magician.
    His magic is very entertaining to watch.
    He has the ability of making people and animals disappear live on national television. (And no one knows how he does it?)
    He also has the ability to turn a dollar bill into a one hundred dollar bill right before your eyes on national television.
    He has a bachelor's degree in drama from the Tisch School of the Performing Arts at NYU.
    Although there are many rumors of his 'Carbonaro Effect', TV show being fake, he insists that the show is very real, and that there are no camera tricks whatsoever on the show.
    His first love growing up was actually horror movies, not magic, which explains his freaky and unnatural personality.
