Pewdiepie drar tillbaka stor donation mot judehat

Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg ( SHEL-burg, Swedish: [ˈfeːlɪks ˈarːvɪd ɵlf ²ɕɛlːbærj] (listen); born 24 October 1989), known online as PewDiePie ( PEW-dee-py), is a Swedish YouTuber, comedian, and gamer–commentator known for his YouTube video content, which mainly consists of Let's Play videos and comedic formatted shows. Born in Gothenburg, Sweden, Kjellberg originally pursued a degree in industrial economics and technology management at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg. In 2010, during his time at the university, he registered a YouTube account under the name PewDiePie. The following year, he dropped out of Chalmers after losing interest in his degree field. After failing to earn an apprenticeship with an advertising agency in Scandinavia, he then decided to focus on creating content for his YouTube channel. In order to fund his videos, Kjellberg sold prints of his Photoshop art and worked at a hot dog stand. He soon gathered a rapidly increasing online following, and in July 2012, his channel surpassed one million subscribers. On 15 August 2013, Kjellberg became the most-subscribed user on YouTube, being briefly surpassed in late 2013 by YouTube Spotlight and several times in early 2019 by Indian record label T-Series. From 29 December 2014 to 14 February 2017, Kjellberg's channel was the most-viewed YouTube channel. As of August 2019, the channel has received over 100 million subscribers and 23 billion video views, ranking as the second-most subscribed and eleventh-most viewed on the platform.Kjellberg's most noted YouTube content is his Let's Play video game commentaries, traditionally of horror video games and more recently, Minecraft, although he often produces other forms of comedic content. His content has been praised as genuine and unfiltered, but also received as abrasive, and in some cases, met with controversy. As a result of an early-2017 controversy regarding allegations of anti-Semitism in several of Kjellberg's videos, Maker Studios—the multi-channel network (MCN) he was signed to—ended their partnership with him. While he criticized the coverage of the situation and defended his content as jokes that were taken out of context, he conceded its offensiveness. Kjellberg has raised money for charities, encouraging his audience to donate to charity drives. Due to his popularity, Kjellberg's coverage of indie games has created an Oprah effect, boosting sales for titles he plays. In 2016, Time named him one of "The World's 100 Most Influential People". Kjellberg lives in Brighton and Hove with his wife, Italian Internet personality and fashion designer Marzia Kjellberg.
