Please tell me we're all being punk'd.

Variety, via MSN, reports that histrionic shrieker Chris Crocker has signed a development deal for a reality show:

Production company 44 Blue has inked a development deal with Chris Crocker, the Internet superstar whose tear-filled defense of Britney Spears has generated nearly 8 million hits on YouTube in just one week.

Plan is to develop a docusoap built around Crocker, a 19-year-old who lives with his grandparents in Tennessee. Even before the Britney clip, Crocker had developed a large Net audience via numerous video performances posted on MySpace.com.

He gets his own series and Betty Butterfield doesn't? No justice.
