James Charles threatened to get his lawyer
involved after Jovan Hill posted a fake DM
on twitter that included a racial slur.
Yes, this dm that’s circulating was 100
percent fake, but just because it was fake
that’s not to say that people didn’t believe
it was real.
I’m gonna spill this tea, right now on IO.
Welcome back to inform overload, the news
channel that spills the hottest tea on youtube.

As you probably know by now, racial slurs
are not something to joke about, in any capacity,
especially if you’re a huge youtuber and
influencer like james Charles.
Pewdiepie’s channel and reputation took
a serious hit after he used a racial slur
on a live stream.
Sure, he ended up coming out on top, but there
are plenty of youtubers who’s careers have
been ruined over issues involving racial slurs
like laura lee.
There are many people who still havent forgiven
pewdiepie over the racial slur he used, and
they have every right to feel the way they
do.
After Jovan Hill, a social media influencer,
tweeted a DM that appeared to show james Charles
sending him a message that included a racial
slur, James Charles was furious.
He tweeted in response, this is absolutely
not funny, delete this immediately or my lawyer
will be in contact.
The DM was most likely fake.
And faking a DM is defamation of character,
which someone can definitely take you to court
for.
For those of you who don’t know, its really
easy to fake a dm.
You can either do it in photoshop or theres
another way that I’m not going to tell you
about because it could risk someone else being
caught up in a mess they don’t deserve.
After this, james Charles went on a twitter
rampage, expressing his concerns.
He said, its scary to me that there are actual
people on twitter who crave attention so badly
that they make fake screenshots to try and
ruin other’s careers and lives.
Its not funny.
When someone tweeted in response that james
should learn to take a joke, he tweeted.
Getting messages, death threats and emails
questionings one’s character over a fake
screenshot is not a joke.
Agreed, death threats are not a joke.
There are some people who would believe something
like this and take matters into their own
hands.
Plenty of people might have seen that dm without
any context as to the situation.
And judging by the response on twitter, there
were plenty of people who believed that this
dm was real.
Jovan hill’s twitter account as well as
his instagram were suspened after this, they
were back up and running for a time and now
they were, And he wasted no time in coming
after james once it was.
He tweeted.
James Charles is a racist.
Shane dawson is a racist.
Emma chamberlain is a racist, you defend them
you a racist.
Jovan Hill has been in the news before.
He’s known for being a social media influencer
who doesn’t actually work for a living and
basically just survives off donations from
fans.
He’s also known online for his cut throat
sense of humor, which is why so many people
told james Charles that this must all must
have been a Joke.
It turns out that Jovan Hill was likely doing
all of this for clout, because he just dropped
a merch line.
Get huge youtubers involved in a scandal,
and its going to put you on the map.
Even the fact that james Charles responded
to Jovan Hill’s tweet got him exposure.
Anyways friends that is all I have for you
on this, its unlikely james will seek legal
action because he wrapped up his twitter rant
with this tweet.
I don’t want to give him the thrill of even
taking him to court, twitter is already helping
me handle it.
That’s all I have for you on this, I’m
going to wrap up this video with some comment
features.
