David Dobrik is one of the most well-known internet stars, boasting a massive 18 million YouTube subscribers, more than 26 million TikTok followers and more than 14 million Instagram followers. Dobrik has expanded on to many more platforms, created his own podcast, launched an app, and there are even hints at other massive business ventures in the near future. As a social media giant living in Los Angeles, naturally, Dobrik brushes shoulders with huge mainstream celebrities. He\u2019s previously told stories of his interactions with the Kardashians, and he\u2019s hung out Leonardo Dicaprio, Kevin Hart, and John Stamos among many others. Considering his ability to befriend almost any celebrity, it\u2019s pretty unusual when they don\u2019t know who he is, especially when they\u2019re already living in LA and meeting other well-known internet icons. In an interview with Dobrik on an episode of his VIEWS podcast on Wednesday, March 3, Diplo recalled the moment they met. David began by saying he and Dillon Francis have a joke that Diplo has no idea who he is, and so he said to Diplo \u201cDo you know who I am?\u201d Diplo stuttered and said no, which sent Dobrik into fits of giggles, before saying, \u201cwell I met you backstage one day and I thought you\u2019re just Dillon\u2019s friend and that\u2019s all I knew. I never really met you properly until tonight actually.\u201d (Topic starts at 1:07) But David remembered another previous interaction he\u2019d had with Diplo on the red carpet at the AMAs at which point Natalie, who he was with at the time, asked him if he knew Diplo. \u201cI was like I don\u2019t think I do and I honestly don\u2019t think he knows me either.\u201d Read More: Jake Paul prank calls Ben Askren\u2019s coach &#8211; He continued, \u201cI always thought that I was just some sort of like a made-up figment of Diplo\u2019s imagination like he sees me at parties and stuff.\u201d Diplo tried to explain his thought process, adding, \u201cI always thought you were just Dillon\u2019s really happy friend with the cool hair and I now I\u2019m like you have a house and stuff and like podcasts, I thought you ordered pizza or something for everyone\u2019s gonna hang out with his friend I didn\u2019t know it was like cameras\u2026 you are like a spirit though it\u2019s like you just are like I don\u2019t know you\u2019re everywhere.\u201d Diplo might be one of the very last celebrities living in LA to find out who David Dobrik is. At the very least, having appeared on VIEWS, he\u2019s unlikely to underestimate David from now on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diplo only just found out that David Dobrik is famous YouTube: VIEWSWorld-famous DJ Diplo has revealed that when he first met YouTube star David Dobrik, he had no idea who he was, instead, he thought he was just a friend of DJ Dillon Francis.
