Professional Career
Blue’s Clues was an instant hit due to Burns’s performances as much as the show’s format. He became “a superstar” among his audience and their parents, but unknown to everyone else,and enjoyed what he called being a “micro-celebrity, about as small a celebrity as you can be”.
As The New York Times reported, he “developed an avid following among both preteen girls and mothers. The former send torrents of e-mail; the latter scrutinize the show with an intensity that might make even Elmo, the red Muppet, blush.”In 2000, People included Burns in their annual list of America’s most eligible bachelors.
After nearly six years and 100 episodes,Burns announced that he would be departing Blue’s Clues in 2002.Burns’s departure caused a resurface of the rumors that had circulated about him since 1998. Burns replied, “The rumor mill surrounding me has always been really strange.
“Some of these “specious claims” included death from a heroin overdose, being killed in a car accident, and, like what was rumored to have happened to Paul McCartney in 1966, him having been replaced with a look-alike.
Burns made an appearance on The Rosie O’Donnell Show to dispel these rumors,and he and co-creator Angela Santomero appeared on The Today Show to help concerned parents extinguish the fears of kids who may have heard these rumors.
In September 2021, for the 25th anniversary of Blue’s Clues and nearly 20 years since departing the series, Burns, in his television persona, released a video directed at the older fans of the show who grew up watching him about going off to college and how far he and the viewers had come since the show premiered.
Burns worked on material for his first album, Songs for Dustmites, for two and a half years at a small studio in his home in Brooklyn before it was produced by PIAS Records in late 2002. He started work on the album after he left Blue’s Clues in 2002, and it was released in 2003.
Burns started a band, Steve Burns and the Struggle, and completed his second album, Deep Sea Recovery Efforts, which was released in 2009. Members of the Struggle include Drozd and Ryan Smith of A Million Billion.Burns made a guest appearance on Tim Kubart’s 2018 children’s album Building Blocks.
