Whatever happened to Steve?! Find the A’s to all your Q’s on the whereabouts of Blue’s owner (and some people’s first fictional boyfriend—yes, we’re looking at you!) in our photo gallery. (Photo: Release)
For starters, he’s alive. Despite the rumors of a tragic dead (consequence of an alleged overdose, a car crash, or even a suicide), Steve is very much alive! Burn’s Instagram and Twitter handle is @SteveBurnsAlive, just in case anyone still doesn’t have a clue. (Photo: Instagram)
You may have trouble recognizing him now since he has absolutely no hair. In fact, that was one of the reasons he decided to quit Blue’s Clues. “I refused to lose my hair on a kid’s TV show, and it was happening fast.” (Photo: Instagram)
He lives in the hipster mecca of Williamsburg, Brooklyn where he owns a custom-built loft. Blue’s Clues sure paid off! (Photo: Instagram)
Since leaving the Blue’s Clues, Steve has release a few albums with Steven Drozd of the Flaming Lips. The most recent one is a children’s album named Foreverywhere. (Photo: Instagram)
He’s the guitarist in Steve Burns and the Struggle, a band he created in 2009. (Photo: Instagram)
Though he has mainly focused on music, Steve hasn’t stopped acting. In 2007 he played a vampire in the horror-comedy film Netherbeast Incorporated. The following year he played an astronaut in Christmas on Mars. (Photo: Instagram)
He may be confused by Moby, but Steve was once of People magazine’s most eligible bachelors in 2000, alongside George Clooney, Derek Jeter, and Matt Damon. Tough competition! (Photo: Instagram)
He is a little obsessed with Walmart. He’s call it his “comfort zone”, and he even referred to a shopping cart as “bae” in a tweet, which often talk about his love for the hypermarket chain. (Photo: Instagram)
No, he won’t be a part of Blue’s Clues reboot. But he was just as excited, or shall we say shocked, as we were. “… hold my beer” he captioned a screenshot he shared on his Instagram about the news. (Photo: Instagram)
It’s been over 20 years since Blue’s Clues first graced our TV screens. And now, Nickelodeon is ready to release 20 brand new episodes of the beloved children’s series. But what most surprised fans of the show (mind you, now adults with their own kids!) probably wasn’t the reboot itself but rather that Steve, the boy in the green striped shirt, won’t be a part of it. And we all wonder why…
Is he too busy sitting on his thinking chair? Or did he get lost wandering inside one of the painting in his house? Perhaps he finally ran into a mystery that he still hasn’t been able to solve. Or maybe, just maybe, rumors on the internet are true and Steve tragically passed away many years ago.
