Top Ten Most Controversial YouTubers

We all have witnessed at least one YouTuber having drama or being very hated, but which one has it the most?

The Top Ten
  1. Onision

    James Jackson, born Gregory James Daniel on November 11, 1985, is an American YouTuber who goes by the pseudonym Onision. He produced sketches and satirical videos on his main channel while using secondary channels for viewer interaction, controversial discussions, and personal vlogs. Media outlets and... read more

    He is one of the very few people who speaks his mind about any given topic, so I love him. He says what we all want to, even though everyone will deny it. This also contributes to the fact that he has a lot of drama...

    Ew! I absolutely hate PM rants, but Onision is definitely the most controversial. Between his crazy girlfriend and recording that girl having a seizure, no one really competes.

    There are entire websites and Facebook groups devoted to hating him. I don't think that's true of any other YouTuber.

  2. Pewdiepie

    Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg (born October 24, 1989), known online as PewDiePie, is a Swedish YouTube personality, comedian, and commentator. He gained fame for his Let's Play videos and vlogs and was the most subscribed YouTuber for nearly six years, after which he was surpassed by T-Series. As of March... read more

    How is he above Logan Paul, who showed a suicidal victim in his video, tased a dead rat, faked his death in front of tons of young fans, smashed plates really close to his dog, and did a GONE SEXUAL video with his assistant, who is dating someone? Also, he's above Filthy Frank, whose channel is meant to be offensive.

    How is he controversial? He shared an opinion, and the media just overrates it. Who cares? The only reason he is here is because he is the biggest person on YouTube.

    I kinda like him. He is sort of funny, but yes, very controversial. On here, it says he is the best YouTuber ever, yet it also says he is the 6th worst YouTuber ever.

  3. Sam Pepper

    Samuel Pepper (born March 26, 1989) is a British internet personality, prankster, TikToker, and former YouTuber. He launched his YouTube channel in 2010, which had accumulated over 2.2 million subscribers and more than 294 million views by April 2024. He has not uploaded new content to the channel since... read more

    Enough said. He posted that controversial video about sexual harassment and killing his best friend just for pranks. Well, I recently saw his killing prank. I honestly find it to be passable because no one died in the video, but some people accuse it of being more like an ISIS-style execution, which is bad enough.

    He sucks so much that even Anonymous, the hacking group, threatened to terminate his channel. And don't get me started on that "Killing Best Friend" prank.

    There is only one reason why he is here!

  4. Skydoesminecraft

    Adam Dahlberg, born January 17, 1993, is better known online as Sky Does Everything or NetNobody, and was formerly known as SkyDoesMinecraft. They are an American YouTuber, video game commentator, and former animator who gained prominence for their early Minecraft content.... read more

    For ruining the Minecraft fanbase.

    For making little kids say "budder."

  5. Brett Keane

  6. IrateGamer

  7. Logan Paul

    Logan Alexander Paul, born April 1, 1995, is an American YouTuber, professional wrestler, and social media personality. He has hosted the Impaulsive podcast since November 2018 and is signed to WWE, where he currently holds the WWE United States Championship. Paul also maintains a large YouTube following... read more

    Surprised he's not number one. He abuses his hamster and showed a dead body before. The sad thing is, like HowToBasic, he has many subscribers.

    He walked into the Japanese Suicide Forest and was surprised when he saw a corpse.

    He should be number one on this list.

  8. Rucka Rucka Ali

    People are so sensitive and get offended easily. He shouldn't be here, but he has to be.

    He feels as if he can do whatever he wants because he's white (and he is white).

    Offensive to every religious group.

  9. TheAmazingAtheist

    Thomas James Kirk III (born February 20, 1985), previously known by the pseudonym Terroja Lee Kincaid, is an American YouTube personality and podcast host.

    Kirk's channel, The Amazing Atheist, gained prominence for its criticism of religion. Over time, he has expanded his focus to include various... read more

    He tries to piss off everyone he can for the views and is just a jerk. The saddest part is that he makes a ton of money being an ass.

    Don't get me started on his annoying, brainwashed fanboys, even if you pretend they don't exist.

    He has pissed off so many people, which is why he is here!

  10. HowtoBasic

    HowToBasic is an Australian YouTube comedy channel that is part of the Fullscreen network, with over 14 million subscribers. The channel is known for its surreal and chaotic how-to videos that parody instructional content. Its creator remains anonymous and never reveals their face.

    This guy is just gross. I really don't get why people would watch this all the way through.

    And if this is the controversial YouTubers list, then MediocreFilms should be on here. He is known for his Retarded Policeman skits, which are offensive.

    I don't know why this guy is even popular and beloved. He just throws eggs and makes fun of kids in Africa.

    I thought it was an informational channel about doing things, but it's just videos on how to have sex and masturbate.

  11. The Newcomers
  12. ?

    Meowbah

    I found videos where she peed on The Torah and disrespected Jewish people and also urinated on a Technoblade plush and played with the plush with her feet (paws she was wearing). She literally needs to be punished or something she's truly disgusting

  13. ?

    NintendoGamingHD

    This user has had a long-term history of harassing VideoGamePhenom by exposing personal information and flagging videos for DMCA takedowns.

    This user simply has no place on YouTube.

  14. The Contenders
  15. Joshscorcher

    I used to edit for him back when I was a fan. It was the worst experience, especially since he acts incredibly hypocritical. Ever since he jumped onto the brony bandwagon, he's become progressively worse. He claims he's a Christian, but doesn't act like one in real life.

    Josh Scorcher and his colleagues within the Rift Cafe tried to quietly remove a predator from the Rift Cafe and cover up the predator's actions. They then lied to bronies when the predator's actions were leaked.

    His statements are insensitive and full of microaggressions. He has an intolerant ego and thinks his intelligence is superior to others.

  16. BajanCanadian

    Oh, this guy? He had a decent, lowbrow channel called ASF that was hilarious. Then he met Sky, destroyed Team Crafted, and now does the same lazy content most of the time.

  17. PMSRants

    I really like him, but I can't stand what he said about Smosh. He said they always play it safe, which is a partial sin in comedy. Who cares! I would laugh at any type of comedy, no matter what type it was. However, if it was comedy that really crossed the line, then I would get pissed off. I'm not trying to sound like a hypocrite, but there's a difference between a horrible, tasteless joke and a little harmless offensive humor.

    He's okay, but I don't think he has enough reason in his Worst (Blank) Top Tens. He even said that Nicki Minaj should kill herself. I am personally not a fan of her, but that goes way too far! I don't see why people are commenting about him not liking Smosh. He mentioned that they actually do a good job at what they do, but they're getting a bit old.

  18. TVFilthyFrank

    George Kusunoki Miller (born September 18, 1992), better known professionally as Joji and formerly known on YouTube as Filthy Frank and Pink Guy, is a Japanese-Australian R&B singer, comedian, songwriter, rapper, and former YouTuber.... read more

    How is he not in the top 10? I love Filthy Frank, but he makes some of the dirtiest jokes and even jokes about quite serious things, like cancer. Somehow, he makes them funny. Frank is also quite offensive. He has a bunch of outrageous characters like Pink Guy (my favorite character out of all), Salamander Man, Safari Man, Chin Chin, Red Dick, Dade, and more. This channel is hilarious but still messed up and very inappropriate.

    Papa Franku... I have voted for you. I will now return to making my sacrifice to Chin Chin...

  19. HoodlumScrafty

    His opinions and reasons are so mediocre.

  20. Jerome

  21. McJuggernuggets

    Jesse Tyler Ridgway, born September 29, 1992, is better known online as McJuggerNuggets or RiDGiD STUDiOS. He is an American YouTuber from Elmer and Pittsgrove Township, New Jersey. His main channel has over 4.3 million subscribers, and his video "Psycho Dad Shreds Video Games" has garnered more than... read more

    Not all of his videos are actually real, just like CNN. You have to be careful about what you're watching. Some of these facts may be true or not. Even you could get tricked into believing these lies.

    Most people criticize this guy, calling his "Psycho Family" videos fake. I can agree with that.

  22. NateTalksToYou

    I know that he's a good guy.

  23. ReviewTechUSA

    He is a hypocrite to the max, putting even The Archfiend to shame!

  24. Angry Video Game Nerd

    James Duncan Rolfe is an American actor, comedian, filmmaker, film and video game critic, and internet personality. He is best known for creating and starring in the web series The Angry Video Game Nerd, produced by his company, Cinemassacre Productions. The series was formerly associated with GameTrailers... read more

  25. Idubbbz

    Ian Jomha, better known online as iDubbbz, is an American YouTube personality and comedian best known as the creator of the YouTube channels iDubbbzTV, iDubbbzTV2, and iDubbbzGames, as well as the comedy video series Content Cop, Bad Unboxing, and Kickstarter Crap.... read more

    He is racist scum because he made fun of Asian eyes. Idubbbz will move to Vimeo.

  26. LeafyIsHere

    Calvin Lee Vail (born August 18, 1995), known online as LeafyIsHere or simply Leafy, is an American former YouTuber and Twitch streamer. From 2011 to 2017, and briefly in 2020, he created reaction, drama, and gaming videos but was primarily known for his commentary content.... read more

    He's playing a character that's a total jerk. I've heard he's a nice dude in real life, but his online personality isn't going to earn him any brownie points in the Saint Hall of Fame anytime soon.

    The latest videos about him pretty much explain why he should be at the top of this list.

    The king of criticism, in a bad way.

  27. Verlisify

    He's the one who sparks controversies in the Pokémon community.

    He's one of the people I want gone from my life.

  28. Jake Paul

    Jake Joseph Paul (born January 17, 1997) is an American social media personality and professional boxer. He first gained fame on the video-sharing app Vine, and later starred as Dirk Mann on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark for two seasons. Throughout his career, Paul has drawn controversy for his... read more

  29. The Mysterious Mr. Enter

    This jerk is the worst YouTube reviewer ever. He makes invalid points and doesn't go into further detail about his opinions. The Nostalgia Critic is better than him (though that isn't saying much). A great reviewer is the late Emer Prevost. Check him out.

    Even his username doesn't make any sense! Why does he call himself "The Mysterious Mr. Enter"?

    He literally thinks it's okay to use racist slurs because he doesn't find them offensive.
