Top 10 YouTubers Who are the Biggest Sellouts

Anyone who used to make good content but now makes bad content, leaving many OG fans disappointed, and even some new ones.

The Top Ten

  1. 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

    He used to be good. I liked his old Minecraft videos and some other gaming videos. Heck, he was even good during his vlogging era. He went downhill around 2017-2018 when several controversies surrounded him that were pretty bad. He started posting lame content too, including memes and ruining LWAIY.

    When he is not doing that, he debates very controversial topics terribly. Then, in late 2018/2019, things only got worse in the PewDiePie/T-Series battle. He didn't just make fun of T-Series. He immaturely dissed the entire country of India along with it. He went through March 2019 like a spoiled baby when the stakes of PDP/TS were at their highest. He made really boring content after the battle. In mid-2020, he started posting good content again, but at the end of 2020, he went back to making terrible videos again.

  2. Pokimane

    I miss the old Pokimane (2009-2016). From 2009-2014, she was a very entertaining Twitch streamer who played video games. From 2014-2016, she became a YouTuber and posted very entertaining content there too, including a few funny skits. She was my favorite female YouTuber for a while, plus, I never found her that attractive, so that's good.

    However, as of 2016, she went viral and simps ruined her channel. From 2016-2017, she still was okay in content until 2018, when she completely sold out trying to appeal to simps. Simps are so crazy that by this point, she has received at the very least tens of thousands of dollars, if not more, from those idiots. Now, she is a simp-obsessed YouTuber who seems to copy-paste her Among Us videos while enjoying attention from creeps. At this point, she is even starting to become one of them.

  3. SuperMarioLogan

    Logan Thirtyacre, born on November 17, 1994, is better known as SuperMarioLogan or SML. He is an American YouTuber and puppeteer who creates comedy videos using puppets, action figures, and plush dolls, and his content often features characters based on or inspired by the Mario franchise. He has gained... read more

    He was a good YouTuber during my tween-teen years. I liked his videos from 2009-2015. Afterwards, he created disgusting characters like Jeffy and is trying to make "funny" videos that are just dumb and gross. Honestly, he's pretty much a sellout.

    Oh, and a few weeks ago, he privated a lot of his videos from his good era, which is very angering. I just want to take the pencil out of Jeffy's nose and throw him in a lake. I'm joking, but I would do that if I could. I'd do that to Logan too.

  4. TommyInnit

    Listen to "I miss the old Tommy." He gives you great points there.

  5. Morgz

    Morgan Hudson, born on August 6, 2001, is better known online as Morgz. He is a British YouTuber recognized for his pranks, challenge videos, sketches, and vlogs. Morgz became known across the YouTube community for his exaggerated content and viral videos like the Pause Challenge, gaining popularity... read more

    If you watch his videos from late 2015 to early 2018, they were actually pretty OK.

  6. Smosh

    Smosh is an American sketch comedy YouTube channel created by Ian Andrew Hecox and Daniel Anthony Padilla. Anthony Padilla created a website called smosh.com in 2002 and was later joined by his friend Ian Hecox. The duo became one of the most popular creators on YouTube, and the channel has since expanded... read more

    Ever since Anthony Padilla (the co-founder) left in 2017, the whole channel went completely downhill and is no longer the most popular comedy channel on YouTube. Their videos became boring and repetitive and aren't getting nearly as many views as they used to.

  7. Yamimash

  8. DanTDM

    Daniel Robert Middleton (born November 8, 1991), better known online as DanTDM (formerly TheDiamondMinecart), is a British YouTuber and gamer known for his video game commentaries. His online video channels have covered many video games, including Minecraft, Roblox, and Pokémon. DanTDM has received several... read more

  13. CoComelon

  14. Lele Pons

    Although she hasn't been on YouTube in the past five months, she did state she's releasing a new song and music video. She used to do comedy for the last three years and gained a whopping 17.5 million subscribers at that rate (one of the fastest ever for a female on YouTube), surpassing Lilly Singh (who's been on YouTube for over ten years with approximately 15 million subscribers).

    Ever since she did her own documentary series, The Secret Life of Lele Pons, she went downhill and sold out her comedy roots, though she's doing music now. Now, Hannah Stocking (who she used to be together with) also used to do comedy and went past 7.6 million subscribers until dating TikToker Ondreaz Lopez (formerly part of the Lopez Brothers). She started doing several vlogs until December 4th, 2020, when she (and he) suddenly just left YouTube without even announcing it (which is why she isn't on this list to date).

  15. Anna Akana

    She did comedy, which she loved for years, and spent the past seven-plus years making comedy videos on YouTube. Until 2019, when she grew and sold out of her comedy to sell into music. She's still an author and tells stories though.

  16. Muselk

  17. WillNE

  18. Ali-A

    Alastair Aiken, better known by his online alias Ali-A, is a British YouTuber best known for his Call of Duty and Fortnite content. His videos include gameplay commentaries, reaction videos, and vlogs related to gaming culture. He has built a large following on YouTube and other social media platforms... read more

    He used to play COD, which was popular in the day, and got millions of subs off of it. Even when it wasn't popular and started to gain slowly, I could tell he still liked what he was doing. Then, he made clickbait Fortnite videos just for popularity.
