Tony McTony is a character in the GTA IV era, appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV. McTony also appears in the recent trailer of The Ballad of Gay Tony. He is a young internet multi-millionaire (boasting $750 million in stock options) and runs several social networking and video sharing websites. Other sources say no one actually knows how he got rich, though this is likely an exaggeration.

Childhood

Tony McTony, which is assumed by all sources to be his real name, was born in 1979 and grew up on the streets of Bohan. He was a geeky victim of bullying during his childhood (he currently likes to get back at his bullies by purchasing the companies they work at and firing them), and it is also noted that he was a virgin before he became famous, but now can "get laid 24 hours a day".

Lifestyle

Currently, he lives in one of three (or more) luxury homes - an Alderney mansion with a helipad, a luxury mansion in Vinewood, Los Santos with a parked Shamal (a private jet) outside, and the glass penthouse of Harborside Plaza 10 in Alderney, fitted with a glass elevator which has a glass jaccuzzi inside as seen in the show I'm Rich on CNT. He owns fifteen nearly-identical Infernus sports cars all monogrammed with the logo that he spent $15 million developing only for his personal use. It reads "TMT" (possibly inspired by Tony Montana's logo in Scarface) and the reason he fits everything from gold rims to buildings and even his own condoms with his logo is because he believes "Bitches love initials". He is also sometimes pictured with an entire fleet of Patriots, a red Cavalcade a powerboat on the water, or a helicopter. In the Ballad of Gay Tony trailer, he is seen and discussed on a mock television show Fizz!, shown outside Bahama Mamas stepping out of a Super Diamond (a car that was new to the game) followed by an entire parade of scandily-clad dancing women (this may be meant to reflect Sean "Diddy" Combs' entrance to one awards show, in which he stood on top of a large, slowly moving convoy of commericial trucks rapping his song "Bad Boy For Life"). Fizz! shows the subtitle "Parties in Platform Shoes", a reference to McTony's short stature.

He fancies himself an entrepeneur, having recently revealed a new line of adult diapers and always traveling with a crew of "spokeswhores". In one particular outing, he glassed a waitress at a restuarant whilst on a tour with his spokes whores for botching his salad order. He is mentioned in the media about planning to sue LC24 magazine because they had referred to him as Napoleonic (being that he is an egomaniac and only 5 feet tall). He is lambasted by his Vinewood friends for giving his seventh son a "too normal a name", Pete.

Possible real-life inspirations

Tony McTony is partially a parody of young internet moguls, primarily Mark Zuckerburg or the YouTube creators (Hurley and Chen), but made more in the likeness of rap stars like Sean "Diddy" Combs, Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. McTony's antics are inspired by certain famous incidents:

  • Zuckerburg handed out business cards that read "I'm CEO... Bitch" during the first year or so of Facebook's success in 2005. This likely inspired McTony's logo and "Bitches love initials" comment.
  • Chad Hurley and Steve Chen are normally more modest, but once flaunted their success with a video on their own site after being bought by Google founders (fellow young billionaires and other possible influences).
  • Diddy famously ordered contestants on his show "Making The Band 2" to walk across Manhattan to bring him cheesecake (which may have inspired McTony's "salad" incident)
  • Kanye West is well known to be very easily offended, and has often interrupted and/or thrown tantrums at music awards shows (mirrored by McTony's intention to sue LC24 magazine).
  • His "nerd" background contradicts the supposed ideal rapper, but is influenced by Pharrell (who went to summer band camp as a child and would later dub one of his musical projects "N.E.R.D."), Lupe Fiasco and Kanye again (all three collaborated on a project called Child Rebel Soldier) and Kid Cudi, who is signed to Kanye's label.
  • Though Chris Brown and his assault on girlfriend Rihanna would point to McTony's "history of domestic violence", the incident broke out a whole two months after GTA IV's release.
