YouTube's biggest star uploaded a video today where he apologised for casually dropping the N-word during a Battlegrounds stream last weekend. "I should know better," Kjellberg said. "I can't keep messing up like this."

It's been a little over a month since the blow-up surrounding Felix "Pewdiepie" Kjellberg, and the Wall Street Journal report leading to the cancellation of his premium show. Since then, a lot has happened to the YouTuber and to at least one of the reporters who worked on that story.

Pewdiepie has finally responded to the controversy surrounding a Wall Street Journal report that led to the cancellation of his YouTube show, and he does not mince words about the fallout.

While Pewdiepie makes headlines over a "death to all Jews" stunt that backfired, the kicker is that such antics are not an anomaly on YouTube. The open secret that everyone knows but nobody really talks about: Many of YouTube's popular nerdy figures are openly "offensive" in an attempt to push back on a world that they believe is too politically correct.

A month after YouTube's biggest star uploaded a video containing the phrase "Death To All Jews", the service that once hosted that very content is distancing itself a bit from Felix Kjellberg.

Maker Studios, a division of Disney, just severed their deal with YouTube megastar Pewdiepie. They pointed to a (now-deleted) January 11 video in which Pewdiepie paid two men to hold up a sign that read, "Death To All Jews."

When YouTube's biggest star swore that he was going to delete his channel after gaining 50 million subscribers, fans didn't know what to believe. Some thought he was really going through with it, and prepared for the worst. Today, Felix Kjellberg comes clean, revealing that it was just a joke all along.

Last week, YouTube's biggest star swore that once he hit 50 million subscribers, he was going to delete his popular comedy channel. Today, Felix Kjellberg hit that fated number... and the channel is still up.

Felix Kjellberg is a jokester, and that sense of humour has helped him build the biggest empire on YouTube. But at the end of a recent video titled "DELETING MY CHANNEL AT 50 MILLION", the Swedish superstar gets serious.

Things seem pretty weird for Felix Kjellberg right now.
