In a video posted at the end of December 2019, Pew DiePie shared what is considered insulting to his fans. Specifically, Pew DiePie said: When I went to Malaysia and Singapore, the audience there was very excited and shouted continuously. They seem to be losing their minds and doing a lot of crazy things.
In addition, Pew DiePie also said he hated people seeing him as a strange object. He wanted to be treated like normal people and completely happy if fans directly asked to take a photo with him instead of screaming.
Pew DiePie's statement immediately created a "wave" of outrage in the fan community in Malaysia and Singapore.
Recently, Pew DiePie posted a video and apologized to fans in Malaysia and Singapore. In the video, he explained his temporary statement that he felt frustrated when so many strangers entered the hotel he was staying at in Malaysia. This made him feel like he was being chased and could not go anywhere because everyone was around him.
However, I was a bit harsh when talking about you guys like that. The first time I came to Singapore in 2016, I was warmly welcomed like a famous star, something I had never experienced before. It was a memorable and touching memory. I am very sorry, the trip to the two countries was really fun, the male YouTuber shared more.
Pew DiePie's real name is Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, from Sweden. He is a YouTuber, comedian, musician, gamer and commentator known for his YouTube video content.
Currently, Pew DiePie's YouTube channel has about 102 million followers. However, Pew Diepie recently announced that she would not be a YouTube artist in 2020.
"I think at some point, I really need a break. It would be a relief for the first time in 10 years, you to live without YouTube in your head," Pew DiePie shared.
