Jake Paul’s got a pretty crazy life. So
get wild, subscribe to our channel and let’s
kick back and look at 10 times that Jake Paul,
the guy the internet loves to hate,
was actually trolled himself!
10. His New GF is “Pregnant”!
After he kicked his now ex-girlfriend Alissa
Violet out of the house, Jake Paul
quickly hooked up with another girl who he
seems to be treating a lot nicer than
his ex, Erika Costell. Perhaps it’s because
they have a lot in common, as she
refers to her fans as “Costell-ers” like
Jake Paul and his “Jake Paul-ers”. They’re
quite the pair, or should I say, a pair-er?
She did however, play a pretty decent
prank on Paul. Considering many people think
that Paul is sort of a bad person
off-camera, this could’ve ended very poorly.
In the video, Erika essentially drew
two lines on a pregnancy test with a pink
pen and hid a camera in Jake’s room
(even though the camera’s moving the whole
time so it means someone must’ve
been holding it). Despite that, Jake’s reaction
seems genuine as he really doesn’t
say anything for a good minute outside of
a few “hmm’s”. He actually handles it
pretty well as he hugs his girlfriend and
lays down to take it all in. She does point
out that her friend is the one filming while
she admits she’s pranked Paul for the
“first time” (which is probably why it
worked so well). Like Paul said at the end
“That could’ve made me look so bad”
and considering he didn’t, perhaps people
are wrong about Paul after all!
9. His Channel Got “Suspended”
Now, there’s one thing that you have to
understand if you’re moving into the Team
10 house. Or really, 10 things. First and
foremost, Jake Paul is in charge and it’s
his way or the highway. You can pick up on
that in his vlogs, when he complains
about how clean some of the Team 10’ers
rooms are for example. Apparently,
there are also rules about drinking alcohol
in the house (it’s not allowed) and if
people violate certain rules apparently they
have to pay Jake a decent chunk of
change. The other given that comes to mind
when you live in the Team 10 house
is that you can’t trust basically anyone,
as there are pranks going on constantly in
order to drum up traffic. The main goal of
each Team 10’er is to provide content as
often as possible. So by including one another
in their videos (and probably even
more importantly, their thumbnail) via a prank
war, they get those delicious clicks
that Paul gets 20-25% of! One of the better
pranks during one of the more recent
prank wars happened when the Martinez Twins
brought in someone to act as one
of the head YouTube managers and told Paul
that his channel was suspended for
60 days for violating site policy. Now, because
of their thick accents and Spanish
intentional lisp/speech impediment they couldn’t
actually call Jake, so they instead
had a friend call and read from a script while
they secretly filmed the conversation
from Paul’s perspective as well. Now, the
call seems legit as does Paul’s reaction.
It’s hard to make out exactly what they
were suspending Paul over but it sounded
like it had to do with one of his “Pranks”
where he pretends to sell YouTube’s
headquarters. In that video Paul enters the
lobby of the business after putting a
‘For Sale’ sign up and because of that
Paul completely buys that he is speaking
with someone at YouTube and that’s what
makes this so fun to watch.
8. Cremating Yeezy’s
I’m not sure what the definition of trolling
or even pranking someone is in Spain
but apparently, the Martinez Twins seem to
think that destroying someone’s hyper
expensive personal property falls under the
umbrella of one of the two. In this
video, a precursor to the epic fire that ended
up getting Paul on the local news and
his neighbors on the phone with their lawyers,
the Twins decide to burn Jake’s
Yeezy’s, which are hyper hard to get and
very expensive shoes made by the only
person who might have a larger ego than Jake
Paul in Kanye West. Some may
say that this video (and the shoes in it)
are fake, but the look on Paul’s face and
the fact that he says essentially nothing
after he walks out to see his brand new
shoes on fire says otherwise. Meanwhile his
friends all celebrate how “savage” the
Martinez twins are, because they decided to
burn shoes that cost thousands of
dollars. Considering the fact that the video
has over three million views and
YouTube reportedly pays about two-thousand
dollars per million views and the
Martinez twins can at least afford to buy
Paul a couple pairs of those hideous
shoes or since Jake Paul reportedly gets 20%
of the revenue from each of the
Team 10 member’s videos, maybe he can buy
his own pair.
Oh and if you haven&#39;t yet hit that subscribe
button, please go ahead and do it now
while we get back to Jake Paul.
7. Team 10 EVICTED?!?
There were some trolling attempts that didn’t
have a lot of thought behind them
but ended up turning into something more thanks
to the local media in Los
Angeles, essentially creating a feeding frenzy
around Jake Paul and his neighbors
hatred of him and their inability of local
“journalists” to check their sources.
The
JOOGSQUAD fellas essentially copy one of Paul’s
most well known “pranks” in
which Jake Paul puts a ‘For Sale’ sign
in famous people’s yards and… That’s
it.
The JOOGSQUAD prank involves putting an eviction
letter on Paul’s door which
makes a lot more sense considering the fact
that A) Paul is renting the Team 10
house and B) He was violating pretty much
everything a lease states on a daily
basis and C) The media is covering what a
terrible neighbor he is in a decently
high priced neighborhood. So, by itself this
would’ve been funny because it
would’ve scared Paul and company for a minute
or two (until they texted their
landlord) but it became next level when the
local media in Los Angeles filmed one
of the JOOGSQUAD fellas putting the “order”
up and put it on the news as…
News.
6. Jake Paul vs. Logan Paul
If you weren’t already aware Jake Paul actually
has an older brother that is like the
rich man’s version of Jake. Regardless of
where you stand on the Jake Paulers
vs. the Logang, one thing is for sure. When
the brothers combine their efforts,
even if it’s against one another, they get
an amazing amount of views. The crown
jewel in their prank war was when Logan had
actors pretend to arrest his brother
while posing as the Secret Service. One reason
it worked so well is that Jake Paul
has had multiple conversations with the Secret
Service regarding a couple
“Pranks” he pulled that involved the White
House and the President. First, he
attempted to stay overnight in a White House
bathroom while Obama was still in
office and then he put a ‘For Sale’ sign
up at one of Donald Trumps’ homes in
California. The main actor did an amazing
job and kept repeating that Paul had
committed a federal offense by leaving the
tour group and staying in the
bathroom. You can tell by his face that he’s
terrified, so much so that he didn’t
even laugh when the actor asked if he was
“Pooping the whole time” because
“That’d be impressive”. When they told
him that his YouTube channel was going to
be deleted for “Homeland Security purposes”
and attempted to detain him, he
started to panic. The ending is amazing and
we’ll let you enjoy it for yourself!
5. Jake Paul vs…. Jake Paul?
There’s one major thing that people get
wrong about Jake Paul and that’s the
idea that he’s stupid. He’s actually
pretty smart, or at least very business savvy.
He’s able to take advantage of upcoming
trends in his videos quickly enough that
people assume he came up with the idea himself.
Part of that, obviously, is the seemingly
non-stop diss tracks that have been coming
out between different YouTube channels and
vloggers. Because Paul is aware that he’s
being exposed left and right in these videos
it looks like he’s attempting to stop the
bleeding by releasing a new diss track…
On himself. The track, titled F**K JAKE PAUL (He
used the asterisks, because he’s still gotta
get revenue! It’s also quite amazing it
wasn’t called FLIP JAKE PAUL) is essentially
Paul’s attempt to pull an Eminem from the
end of 8 Mile. In it, Paul raps about himself
and attempts to take away anything that people
can say about him by saying it himself. The
problem is, that it’s sort of a too little,
too late situation. The song itself really
doesn’t touch on what people dislike about
Paul. He calls himself “Tubby”, despite
the fact that he’s in relatively good shape
and works out everyday. He then responds to
himself and tries to explain that he understands
why people dislike him. That having been
said, a lot of the Jake Paul hate comes from
the fact that he’s simply gotten
extremely internet famous, extremely fast.
He’s no different than a lot of people his
age, and because he’s become famous for
doing stupid stuff online, he is doing
stupid stuff online. Outside of perhaps cheating
on his girlfriend, he’s done nothing
TERRIBLE. Sure, his neighbors don’t like
him, but how many of us had neighbors
that hated you in college? So, if anything,
this song succeeds in that it makes you
realize that he’s just sort of a douche
bag because he’s become super successful
for being a douche bag. At least he’s admitted
that at this point, hopefully he’ll
actually work on those small issues as opposed
to fixing his “two-pack”.
4. Swatting
If you’re not familiar with the term Swatting,
it probably means that you’re a decent
human being (or over the age of 35). Swatting
is a “prank” that became popular a
few years ago when kids and sadly some adults,
started sending SWAT teams to
one another’s house by calling 911 and saying
some sort of hostage situation was
going on. It’s a horrible thing to do and
is really not funny in the slightest, even
if
you really dislike a person. As the video
of Paul’s house being Swatted shows, it
takes a lot of resources and it could very
easily get someone killed because SWAT
teams go into houses pretty aggressively.
Now, Paul probably should’ve seen this
coming as he did post the address of the Team
10 house publicly online. Because
his address is online and because the internet
can be a cess pool of sadness, it
was really only a matter of time. Which makes
the rumors that he has been
Swatted yet again seem true. You can watch
pretty low quality “News” footage
about the first Swatting situation, just to
see the amount of police, fire trucks and
personnel show up, that takes them away from
doing their real jobs.
3. It’s Chessa Brooks!
Now, Jake Paul essentially broke the internet
when he released It’s Everyday Bro
on the world. Somehow his “song” landed
in the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100
for only one day but that’s one day that
will live in infamy. The song was so bad
that it was almost a parody of itself. However,
you knew that basically every other
YouTuber was going to comment on the video
and they did, every single one of
them. So, it wasn’t hard to find parodies
and reaction videos of the song, but it
was hard to find good reactions or parodies.
That was until Bart Barker released
his parody of the song.
It’s extremely well done and pretty much
a shot for shot remake of the original
video. They even found a couple of Spanish
Twins and the same outfits (sort of),
but they apparently couldn’t find a single
woman to be in the video (outside of his
“Mom” at the end) so their Chessa Brooks
is extra hilarious. This video was so
good it almost got the top spot on the list.
2. His Ex
Now, at one point in time, Jake Paul and Alissa
Violet were an item online. There’s
one thing that Jake Paul is very good at and
it’s understanding how his audience
interprets his videos and sees him. He’s
essentially the male Taylor Swift. One
thing that is super popular on YouTube is
young couples that make videos
together and combine their names, in this
case, Jake and Alissa were known as
Jalissa and on camera they had a picture perfect
relationship. Off camera, though,
Jake was playing a lot of mind games and essentially
slamming every one of his
fans over the age of 18. After having enough,
Alissa confronted Jake and awoke
the next morning to find that she was being
booted from the house (after she slept
in the same bed as Jake). So, she made a video
explaining how Jake would tell
her he loved her one night and then ask her
to leave the house for awhile so he
could have a girl over the next. This was
the first thing that put a chink in the
armor that was Jake Paul’s public image.
Her video is still one of the defining vids
of 2017 on YouTube and it was probably the
most impactful of any video on this
list in terms of how it affected Paul’s
image.
1. It’s Everynight, Sis
Now, it’s pretty well known that the Brother’s
Paul like to make rap music. Some of
what the elder brother, Logan, does is palatable
but it’s not something that anyone
would’ve heard had he not had this gigantic
platform and following beforehand. If
there’s anyone on YouTube that actually
has had a chance to do that, though, it’s
RiceGum. RiceGum essentially is a vlogger
who creates diss tracks for other
vloggers. It’s been pretty well known for
awhile now that he doesn’t write his own
stuff, as another YouTuber named TheDissRapper
has been linked to Gum as a
ghostwriter, but he has far less viewers than
RiceGum does. Now, if anything…
While this video did essentially end up exposing
RiceGum as someone who is just
looking for clicks and will cross any line
to get it, and he pretty much admitted as
much in another video that he’s doing exactly
that. Saying, essentially: “We’re
cool. I’m sorry, I just like clicks so much
more.” The song is actually really good
and the lyrics are actually really impressive,
as is the beat, which is typically the
strength of these jams. Even Alissa Violet
tears up the mic (as much as a
YouTuber can). This is the age we live in
and if this is what is “cool” these days,
then this has to be the best example of someone
trolling in a diss-track or in
general. There’s so much shade and so many
references that it’s the YouTube
drama’s version of Tupac’s Hit ‘Em Up.
