YouTuber and ex-Disney star Jake Paul is constantly in the midst of some sort of drama, and it’s usually stuff that has left him looking pretty awful.
Not only has he declared war on his innocent neighbours, seen in a video aggressively pushing Tessa Brooks over and being totally racist towards a fan, he’s now started abuse claims against his ex-girlfriend’s new boy, FaZe.
Jake uploaded a video, in which he accuses FaZe of assaulting his assistant while at a nightclub. However, after the video was shared, his ex Alissa tweeted, “The REAL truth is about to come out. Should’ve never lied. Tornados coming.”
Spill that tea girl.
She and FaZe uploaded a video, where they state that police are involved in the issue, and reveal that members of Jake’s Team 10 set the whole thing up.
“Absolutely sickening what these kids will do for views and subscribers.”
After Alissa shared the truth, THOUSANDS of people unfollowed and unsubscribed from Jake’s channel.
Jake then went on to issue an apology for all the controversies he has recently been involved in.
“I’ve learned now that the things I do & say can affect people so deeply… & that I need to continue to be more mindful of the things I’m saying & how they affect others.
“It’s crazy how powerful words are… what people have said to me & how it’s affected me… to what I’ve said to others & even things I’ve said from when I was a lot younger affecting others… I am making it a principal of mine to be conscious of my words at all times & to not use cheap insults as a form of comedy or even in my day to day verbiage.”
Yikes.
The world of YouTube is intense.
