PewDiePie controversies
Felix Kjellberg aka PewDiePie is famous for his videos on YouTube but there are more things than his content on YouTube that makes him famous. This Swedish YouTuber had been a part of many online controversies which made him grab everyone’s attention all over the world.
One of the most famous controversies took place three years ago when he used the “n-word” during a live stream while he was playing PlayerUnknown’s Battleground on YouTube. At that time he apologized sincerely and said, “It seems like I’ve learned nothing from all these past controversies.”
In the same year, he was also the center of another controversy because of which Disney dropped him. It happened because in his video he used the content that was against the Jewish community. In his video, it was discovered that people were holding the sign that said,” Death to all Jews.”
Later he said.”I’m sorry for the words that I used as I know they offended people and I admit that the joke went too far. I do strongly believe that you can joke about anything but I also believe that there’s a right way and not the best way to joke about things.”
He was part of many controversies but 2020 was special for him as in 2020 he had zero controversies. People celebrate the end of one year and welcome the New Year in different ways either by partying or by traveling or any other way but PewDiePie celebrates it for having no controversies in 2020.
2020 was also special for the YouTube star as he was named as The Most Handsome Face of the year 2020 by a famous organization TC Candler. The 31-year-old was happy as he used his YouTube channel and said, “Yes! We finally did it! Number one baby.”
