    gee, I wonder the argument with his long lost children were about?

    the odds are against this guy, I SO BADLY want him to succeed to prove the haters wrong.

    it's got to be a difficult transition.

    Did you ever consider homeless modelling? The wardrobe and makeup is to take you as is and take candid black and white photographs. It's very real, very raw, doesn't require you to be in compromising positions and can be quite lucrative.

    These guys blew up after their shoots.

    Some would say lady luck wasn't on their side, but through their perseverance, discipline and attention to artistic altruism, they were able to become models.

    Let's wait to see what happened, if we ever find out. I am rooting for him.

    I am starting to think he was never 2 years clean to begin with.

    Even so, didn't take much for him to fall off the wagon.

    Going from an ex-junkie bum living on the street, to Good Morning America, a new house, multiple jobs offers, fame - all in the matter of a couple weeks? Thats a hell of a big change.

    god i love this story.

    'It's an hallelujah moment every day!' Ted 'Golden Voice' Williams shows off new pad (and girlfriend) a year after being homeless

    [​IMG]

    Just a year ago he was the homeless man with the ‘golden voice' begging on the side of the highway.

    Now – after cashing in on his dulcet tones and finally ditching his drug addiction – Ted Williams is at last living the good life.

    The 54-year-old, who - despite two bouts in rehab - has also kicked his crack habit and beaten the bottle thanks to his ‘sober living’ coach Eric.

    And, celebrating the year since a YouTube video watched by 18million people propelled him to fame, Mr Williams said: ‘It’s a hallelujah moment every day I wake up.

    ‘I couldn’t have prayed for anything like this, I couldn’t have dreamed that my life would end up like this.’
