Lucas Cruikshank stars in "Fred: The Show" on Nickelodeon as Fred Figglehorn.
Lucas Cruikshank is a 15-year-old writer, director, and actor whose "Fred" videos are a certifiable YouTube sensation. The videos are so popular that they have led to him making a guest appearance on Nickelodeon's "iCarly" as Fred, two Nickelodeon movies: "Fred: The Movie" and its sequel "Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred," and a short-form TV series "Fred: The Show."
Cruikshank started off making YouTube videos with
Cruikshank says, "Two years ago my mom bought me this new video editing software as a gift, and when I was playing with it I realized it had this effect to make a voice sound all squeaky. I thought it sounded hilarious, and came up with 6-year-old Fred and posted "Fred on Halloween," which was kind of a tongue-in-cheek way of poking fun at people on YouTube who post video blogs showing and talking about everything they do. I actually hated "Fred" at first and at one point wanted to kill him off, so I sure understand why there are people who don't like Fred and find him annoying. Fred IS the person you wouldn't want to be around in real life because he's annoying, but he's also got heart and vulnerablility, which is part of what I think draws the fans to him too."
When not making videos, Cruikshank auditions for acting roles. He is also a dancer and takes jazz, tap, and hip hop classes. He resides in Columbus, Nebraska with his two brothers and five sisters.
