Maybe it’s just 15 minutes of fame or maybe it’s going to be something that lasts a long time, but #DamnDaniel is catching on in huge ways. Pop Sugar has pointed out how Daniel Lara and his outfits and the clever saying have spawned repeats, memes, and even an original rap song.
Yes, a rap song.
Believe it or not, everyone seems to be saying the same thing about the #DamnDaniel video that has gone viral, and it’s that it is very catchy. Sure, you may not like it at first and don’t understand what makes it so popular, but you’re bound to watch it again and again.
After a couple times of watching it, you may end up smirking at it, laughing at it, and finding it quite funny. You may still not totally understand what it’s about, or the point, but you’ll at least have something to laugh about.
Especially when Daniel shows up in the “white Vans.”
Daniel and Josh have really been having fun with all of the attention, and are just enjoying their time in the spotlight.
Josh, and I are stoked by all this. Thank you guys @josholzz

The internet can make a star or a villain out of someone in a heartbeat, and it’s hard to know what will catch on and go viral. There was Alex from Target and the Burger King employee who reportedly quit and took all the chicken nuggets who had their time in the light.
It’s hard to believe that Etsy was selling very popular pills that let you poop glitter, but they had their time as well.
Surely, you can’t forget which nail polish matches the shoe or the freakishly popular dress that was black and blue — or was it gold and white?
Daniel Lara is the latest and most popular trending internet sensation with his high school charm and outfits that earn him a “Damn Daniel” from his friends. Now, he’s getting it from around the world with the hashtag of #DamnDaniel, and even if it only lasts a couple days, it’s always a fun run.
