Is Chat Roulette Piano Man Ben Folds?
New web sensation is rumoured to feature a secret celebrity turn...
Chatoulette, the internet sensation that's sweeping the nation, is currently abuzz with rumours that a mysterious "Piano Man" is actually musician Ben Folds.
The premise of the site is that you're faced with random video chat from anywhere in the world - you can see them and they can see you. When you've had enough, you can move on.
Obviously, the site is awash with perverts, exhibitionists, voyeurs and genuine innocents who are shocked by the former. But the "Piano Man" improvises some rather nifty riffs on the other chatters - often to hilarious effect.
So good are the on-the-fly songs, many now believe that the mysterious "Merton" is actually singer-songwriter Ben Folds. The YouTube channel that houses the clip claims otherwise, saying that "Ben is a much better pianist". What do you think? Have a look at the video below.
