How Did Bert Kreischer Become Famous?
Bert Kreischer’s fame can be traced back to his college days at Florida State University, where he was known as a notorious partyer. In 1997, he was featured in a Rolling Stone article titled “Bert Kreischer: The Undergraduate”, which named him “the top partyer at the Number One Party School in the country”. The article caught the attention of Hollywood director Oliver Stone, who wanted to make a movie based on Kreischer’s life. However, the deal fell through, and one of the writers who submitted a script changed Kreischer’s name to Van Wilder and sold it to National Lampoon. The result was the 2002 comedy film “National Lampoon’s Van Wilder”, starring Ryan Reynolds as the titular character.
Kreischer was not involved in film production or promotion, and he has never seen it. He said in an interview, “I’ve never seen it. I had nothing to do with it.” However, he did use his newfound fame as a springboard for his stand-up comedy career. He moved to New York City and started performing at clubs and bars. He soon landed a sitcom deal with Will Smith’s production company for his own travel reality series called “Bert the Conqueror”. He also began appearing on various TV shows, such as Comedy Central Presents, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Joe Rogan Experience, This Is Not Happening, Hot Ones, Conan Without Borders: Japan, and more.
