VIDEO: Meet Courtney Barnes, the green-haired eyewitness and latest Internet celebrity

In Jackson Mississippi, two cars were involved in a major crash and the person who witnessed it provided one of the greatest interviews ever.

Courtney Barnes was the first on the scene to give reporters an unforgettable recount of what took place involving a Jackson Police patrol car and a van that was being chased by a Jackson State University police vehicle.

“The police officer was merging towards the front and the car gunned a little right … and it was a full twist-about and the police car just twist around like a tornado, girl,”Barnes tells reporters. “

He also gives a shout out to Burger King.When the reporters ask him what he was doing before he saw the crash he responds, “Well ma’am I was actually going to buy me a piece of burger from Burger King and I just stopped in the middle because my hunger just went away.“

Although this may be the first time many of us got to see Barnes on television, he’s he is no stranger to being in the spotlight. He has made several appearances on the dance competition show “So You Think You Can Dance,” including an opportunity to the finals in Las Vegas.

Courtney Barnes is everything

Classy, but NEVER trashy

We’re all waiting for someone to create an autotune remix video of the interview. Remember Antoine Dodson? If you need a refresher check out the “Bed Intruder” song from 2010. That clip has over 127 million pageviews.
