Additionally, Hall received backlash following his criticisms of aspects of Chris Kirkpatrick’s personal life.

Lavian filed a lawsuit against him for two months’ unpaid rent on the property, which was leased for a hefty $30,000 per month. Hall’s supporters and detractors quickly turned against him, leaving hundreds of snide comments on the now-famous house tour video.
Hall eventually purchased the same mansion for $6.1 million, backed up by $4.8 million in loans. The property was listed for sale last year at slightly more than $5.9 million, so it doesn’t appear Hall was looking for a deal.

He joined the video-sharing platform YouTube in 2006 and uploaded over 300 videos over the next five years. His first video was a hilarious clip of him singing his order to a McDonald’s drive-through speaker, which was shot while he was still living in Texas.
In 2008, he posted a video of himself performing “Hard to Say Goodbye,” which increased his subscriber base to two million. YouTube became a full-time pursuit for Hall in 2011, and his popular videos were the basis of later concert tours like “Twerk Du Soleil” and the “Toddlerz Ball”. Hall auditioned for the ninth season of American Idol in August 2009 in Dallas, Texas. He sang a self-composed song mentioning the judges to make his case for inclusion. His participation was approved by all four, and he proceeded to Hollywood week and, eventually, the semi-finals.
He performed Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone” in the Top 24 and Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got to Do with It” in the Top Twenty.
