Luke Barats was born in Idaho to a wealthy merchant and his wife. Luke's early life consisted primarily of My Little Ponies and listening to early Donny Osmond albums, as well as becoming proficient in both piano and sitar. At age five, Luke informed his father that he aspired to become a dancer. Luke was promptly disowned, and in an effort to quell his feminine tendencies and thereby rejoin his own family he would spend the next six years watching football, MacGyver, and Lifetime when no one was looking.

Eventually he would be successfully reunited with his family, only to be disowned again in 1994 when he called his little brother a "Democrat" and again in 2004 upon the release of the Aaron Patinio music video. Luke now resides in your mother.
