This little boy, Sam, has a disease in which his immune system attacks his kidneys. He has to take steroids to remain alive! That is why he looks the way he does! All of you that are hating on the poor little guy, should be dragged out into the street and shot!

I just want to state for the record to all the people leaving rude comments that this little boys name is Sam. Sam was on the Tyra Banks show and they had him redo this video on the show. He actually does have a medical problem that he has to take steroids for which makes him become chubby and more hungry. Plus his parents did not make the video his sister did and she posted it online. People should think before they speak and view themselves before they judge. Look at whats wrong with yourself and think “would I want someone to make fun of me for this?” you wouldn’t. so don’t make fun of others.

No he didn’t eat too many cup cakes. thats what i first assumed.but He came on Tyra apparently he got this rare disease when he was only 3. And like his own immune system is killing him. i’m a muslim but Insha’Allah he gets better. (that means by god’s will)

Okay, folks here’s the deal:

His name is actually Sam Allred. He lives in Alaska with his family. He has a medical condition, a disease of the kidneys, called IgM Nephropathy. This medical condition requires him to take a medication called Prednisone which causes severe swelling in the face and the rest of the body. He is not obese or fat… his appearance is strictly and completely down to the medication on which he is dependent. His goal is to send a message to the world that people should be less hasty to judge because we all have trials and challenges to face. His aim is to change lives through compassion. This is his website: http://www.cuppycakesam.com/index.html

I would encourage anyone who has anything mean spirited to say to do some self directed introspection. People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. May he without sin cast the first stone. Judge lest you yourself be judged.

He has not passed away. There is no documentation of that on his own website. cubbycakeboy.com

He is not dead. There is no documentation of any such event. He is still battling this.

See, at first I believed that this charming young man was over-weight due to eating.
Unlike the commentators on this page, I looked it up without leaving a hateful and negative comment, not knowing the entire story.
Sam Allred, which is his name had any of you bothered to find out, suffers from his immune system ATTACKING his kidneys. He goes thru excessive steroids so he can actually survive!
The moral of his story is to keep living and make it the best you can.
The moral of what I wrote this for is to think before you speak. Or better yet, if you can’t say something nice, DON’T say anything at all.

May my prayers for him reach the ears of god.

The original child that sang the cuppy cake song just passed away after a short battle with cancer. They lived next door to my aunt in Nevada. Really tragic.

you people are mostly all pathetic, saying that a little kid with a rare kidney condition probably ate too many cupcakes is vulgar and you should all be ashamed of yourselves. read up on him before you make cued accusations asshole.

this kid has a disease he actually died because of it his parents have nothing to do with it and if you said something ignorent you should feel very ashamed!i cannot believe what people can say thats the same as making fun of a kid with cancer…

By: Mandy...

Mandy... — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 04:00:31 +0000

My god people, some of you are just so insensitive. His immune system is attacking his kidneys and he is so sick. All of you should be ashamed of yourself for judging people from just their appearance.

I truly hope that there will be a cure one day and until that day comes, I will pray for Sam to remain strong. His video has once again reminded me that we are lucky to be healthy…

By: Heather

you know- that little boy cant help his size. he has a kidney disease and the steroids he has to take for it made him chubby. he cant help it. he was born with that disease. i honestly dont know how you people could be so heartless. no- its not his parents fault that he is chubby.

By: Gloze

He has kidney desiese, and has to take steriods. Thats why his cheeks are ‘chubby’.

By: getalife

getalife — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 05:42:12 +0000

YOU ALL ARE STUPID. he is not chubby, obese, fat, nor has he eaten too many cupcakes. This adorable 9 year old boy has a kidney disease which could kill him. The steroids that he is using causes his growth to be stunted however he weighs what an average 9 year old should weigh. Everyone that made those rude comments… GROW UP.

The kid’s name is Sam and hes 9 last time i checked he has a medical problem that makes his body attack his kidney the steroids he takes make him get to live but at the cost of being overweight and he is average weight for a 9 year old hes just really short which makes him look really fat 90% of the kids who have this disease need the steroids to live all the people making fun of him actually learn before saying hes fat go to youtube and you’ll find him on a doctor show

He has severe kidney issues and some other kind of medical issues. I cant remember all the problems he has. When this was recorded he was on a bunch of steroids.

By: Martha

Martha — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 01:59:44 +0000

You idiots! You don’t realize what you’ve just said. He had a rare kidney disease. He just died you morons! Have some respect and sympathy.

By: paula

YOu guys are all mean this poor child has a kidney problem and he is on steroids that is why his cheeks are big. Instead of being rude and mean pray for him so they can find treatment for his disorder. SHame on you, really.

Hey guys, you should change this post. The boy doing the playback is evidently not Job. You can easily tell by looking into the webpage you are linking to.
Hey, even his mother has commented here and confirmed it isn’t him.
Hi Tina! Let me tell you that you are one great example of a good and loving mother. Best wishes for you and Job.

By: Tina McCully

Tina McCully — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 19:48:48 +0000

Hey all. I am Job’s mom and although I can see the resemblance and understand how this child is getting confused with Job (especially compared to his “Rocket” video posted on http://www.jobs-miracle.com). This is not Job. You can watch Job’s story on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Sunday night (10/26/08) at 8/7c on ABC.

I updated the post. Job McCully’s chubbiness isn’t because of poor eating habit – it’s the side effects of medication.

Wow, a lot of over-reaction: “educate the violent”?

Look, the kid is singing “you’re my cupcake, honeybun…”

Maybe if he was singing a non-food-related song, it wouldn’t lend to the impression that this kid got fat from overeating.

As I said, it was cute, but the kid is grossly obese, and putting this on YouTube invites criticism. It’s like they’re flaunting his obesity. That’s odd.

There’s a news story about Job McCully. Poohaps you can do a follow-up to this to give some info about Job? His story is actually quite uplifting, but sad.

Yes, he’s overweight…so are a lot of people. We’re not all size 8 and perfect. It isn’t a perfect world. He’s a sweet little boy who obviously likes to sing.

I don’t think sick children (be they morbidly obese or afflicted with some other ailment) should be exploited by their fame-seeking parents. I am more disgusted by that than commenters expressing dismay about this child’s disturbing appearance.

By: red

Those big red cheeks (and general fatness) are a side effect of anti-rejection drugs for transplant patients.

Definitely not regular weight gain though. Blindingly obvious on that note.

Maybe that could be added to the posting to educate the violent in here?

i found this info online about this lil boy! i think people should be ashamed of themselves making fun of a innocent lil boy, regardless if he has medical issues or not! he is just a lil boy!

At only 10 years old, Job McCully is an inspiration to his small town, surviving leukemia, a bone marrow and double lung transplant. After years spent in and out of the hospital Job was finally able to go home in March. However, because of his health, the family wasn’t able to return to their sinking, moldy and dilapidated home. Ty and the team help bring the house up to code so Job and his family will be able to return home.

Just wanted to comment again. Some people take things at face value and don’t do a ton of research before making a simple comment on an internet message board. Give me a break! Obese children are NOT healthy! Making fun of them is not right either but to ignorantly look the other way is just as wrong.

Personally, I didn’t think the song was cute at all. I didn’t do research on this child. All I saw was a morbidly obese child lipsynching to a song comparing someone he cares about to sugary junk food. Honestly I don’t care if medications are making him reach this unhealthy weight. Obesity causes death in children. PERIOD.

I apoligize moderator Alex for my lengthy post. I just wanted to weigh in on the people that are shocked at this child’s size.

Wow. Y’all have some messed up attitudes….Not that I don’t, I’m just sayin’.
On the one hand, if the kid is “just” fat, his parents are horrifying monsters, eh? But, if the kid is sick, then comments about him, or laughing at him atempting to be funny are wrong, eh?
I might be messed up, but I’m glad I’m not y’all.

By: Peej

Peej — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 14:06:26 +0000

This isn’t fake. It looks like the kid is on a form of steroids, and making a broad guess based upon his hair, perhaps it is a treatment associated with cancer. Unfortunately, I have seen this repeatedly first hand.

By: D Bozko

I hope a follow up is done so we can all know what his medical condition is because it’s obvious that his look isn’t natural. To all you haters…you’re pathetic.

By the way, Mattie is wrong about his family being on EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME ADDITION this week. Check it out at ABC.com. It’s about a ten year old girl with leukemia.

I thought it was very cute indeed.

But he’ll be dead by the time he’s 30 if he maintains that sort of weight.

Which is significantly less cute.
