You guys ever watch Criss Angel? That guy's like the David Blaine of the 2000s, but with more eyeliner. He's all about magic and illusion. But here's the thing, the real magic is in his ability to distract you from what's actually happening. Like, he could probably make an elephant disappear, and you'd be so busy staring at his bedazzled jacket, you wouldn't even notice. I saw one of his shows, and he was doing this trick where he was supposed to escape from a straightjacket while hanging upside down. It's impressive, right? But I couldn't help but think, "Is this really magic, or did he just forget how to put on a jacket properly?" I mean, I struggle with my winter coat sometimes, too, but you don't see me turning it into a Vegas residency.
It's all about misdirection with Criss. He's like, "Look at my hand covered in sparkles, not the fact that I just pulled a rabbit out of nowhere." And we fall for it every time. I tried that once at a job interview—wore a ridiculous tie to distract them from the fact that I had no relevant experience. Didn't get the job, but at least they complimented my fashion sense.
So, next time you watch Criss Angel, just remember, it's not about the magic; it's about making you forget that you have no idea how he just did that.

I love how Criss Angel turns every magic trick into a life-or-death situation. It's like, "Will Criss escape from this water tank before he drowns?" And I'm sitting there like, "Can't he just use the door?" I mean, Houdini did the same stuff, but at least he had the decency to act like it was a challenge. Criss is out here acting like he's trying to outsmart the Grim Reaper. And don't get me started on his facial expressions. It's like he's auditioning for a soap opera while doing a card trick. He'll be holding a deck of cards, and his face is like, "This is the most dramatic moment in the history of playing cards." Dude, it's just a game of Go Fish.
I want him to do a simple trick, like making a sandwich disappear, but with the same level of intensity. "Will Criss Angel survive the perilous journey of turning bread, meat, and cheese into thin air? Stay tuned!"
Criss, if you're listening, take it down a notch. You're not saving the world; you're just making a coin vanish, and we're all confused.

You know Criss Angel's tagline, right? "Mindfreak!" I'm not sure if he's freaking out our minds or if he's just messing with our memories. I mean, after watching one of his shows, I'm sitting there thinking, "Did I just witness magic, or did I blackout for an hour?" He's always so intense with that "Mindfreak" thing, like he's trying to convince you that he just blew your mind so hard it's currently orbiting Jupiter. But sometimes I wonder if he's really just as surprised as we are. Like, he pulls a quarter from behind your ear, and he's like, "Whoa, how did that get there?" I'm thinking, "You're the one who put it there, Criss!"
And then there's the mind-reading stuff. He'll be like, "I'm sensing someone in the audience has a dead goldfish named Steve." And everyone's like, "Oh my God, that's me!" But let's be real, Steve the goldfish is a pretty safe bet. Who hasn't had a goldfish named Steve at some point in their life? It's like the default goldfish name.
So, Criss, if you're a mindfreak, I challenge you to read my mind right now and figure out why I'm still watching your show even though I have no idea what's happening.

Have you ever noticed Criss Angel's hair? I swear, that thing has a mind of its own. It's like, "While you're busy being amazed by my disappearing act, my hair will be over here attempting to defy gravity." I imagine his hair has its own agent negotiating separate endorsement deals. "Criss, we just signed a shampoo commercial. They want the hair, not you." I bet his hair has its own rider, demanding a bowl of green M&Ms in the dressing room.
But here's the real mystery: How does he keep that hairstyle intact during all those dangerous stunts? I can't even keep my hair in place on a windy day, and this guy is hanging upside down from a helicopter, and his hair is still perfectly coiffed.
I want to see a behind-the-scenes special where Criss Angel's hair reveals its secrets. "Tonight on 'Hairfreak': The untold story of how one man's follicles became the eighth wonder of the world."
Criss, if you ever retire from magic, I hope your hair continues to perform solo acts. Maybe it can make my student loans disappear. That would be a real magic trick.
