Unless you’ve been living in serious isolation from the outside wo- oh, wait. Let me rephrase that. Unless you haven’t been spending your time in serious isolation from the outside world in browsing the internet and binging shows on Netflix, you’ve probably heard of Tiger King and/or seen it. The show has been slowly taking over the world with its weird blend of rednecks, animal abuse and murder mystery. It’s a reality show like any other, and it should be on your watch list if it isn’t already.
To summarize the show briefly: Joe Exotic, a redneck in the deep south of America who collects big cats, is currently in jail because of a feud he has with an animal rights activist called Carole Baskin, who according to the Tiger King killed her first husband and fed him to her tigers. Oh, and the Tiger King is also a country singer. Not a good one, but he makes music anyway. Now that we got the obvious stuff out of the way, here’s a few things you probably didn’t know about Tiger King yet.
Joe Doesn’t Sing His Own Songs
While he should’ve probably hired someone else to write his lyrics, he decided to hire someone else to sing the vocals. This leads to some horrible lyrics being sung by an average-at-best singer, instead of the other way around. I mean, the songs are kind of hilarious though, so I’ll allow it. And I guess the internet has, too.
Filming Had Already Started in 2014
Despite the show only being released recently, filming had started back in 2014. The filming crew was initially following a snake dealer when they met Joe Exotic, and figured that would probably make for a better show. The crew was present when Joe got arrested in 2018 and things were evolving so quickly that sometimes they were filming 18 hours a day to not miss any of the juicy stuff.
