PewDiePie discovers major \u201cloophole\u201d in race to 100 million subs against T-Series PewDiePie, YouTube \/ T-SeriesThe battle between YouTube king Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg and Bollywood label T-Series continues to escalate \u2013 but one fan may have found a major loophole in their race to 100 million subscribers. PewDiePie showed a Discord conversation between two fans in his subreddit during an episode of \u2018LWIAY\u2019 on April 25, one of which claimed that T-Series wouldn\u2019t be the first channel to reach 100 million subscribers on the platform. Instead, it looks as if YouTube\u2019s \u2018Music\u2019 category has achieved that milestone ahead of both channels, sitting at over 105 million subscribers \u2013 rendering T-Series\u2019 eventual \u201cvictory\u201d null and void. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC-9-kyTW8ZkZNDHQJ6FgpwQPewDiePie\u2019s reaction to the \u201cloophole\u201d Thus, T-Series wouldn\u2019t be the first corporation to reach such a milestone, making PewDiePie the very first independent YouTuber to hit 100 million subscribers on the site. Despite his seemingly guaranteed victory, Kjellberg appeared to doubt the reality of reaching such a milestone, as shown in his humorous reaction to the news. [Timestamp: 0:22 for mobile viewers] \u201cHoly heck, guys, this changes everything!\u201d PewDiePie jokingly said of the development. \u201c\u2018Oh my god, we win by default\u2019 \u2013 but we still have to hit 100 million.\u201d T-Series bans PewDiePie\u2019s diss tracks in India T-Series made a major comeback despite the success of PewDiePie\u2019s \u2018Congratulations\u2019 diss track in late March, and now sits at a whopping 950,000 subscribers above Kjellberg as of April 25. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UVxU2HzPGugIn fact, T-Series pursued a court order against the YouTuber in an effort to remove his diss tracks from the platform for good \u2013 and even blocked the songs altogether in India. T-Series\u2019 legal action likely has to do with PewDiePie\u2019s accusations as stated in \u2018Congratulations,\u2019 where he accused chairman Bhushan Kumar of having ties to the Indian mafia and dug up allegations of sexual assault against the director (which were dropped in early 2019). That\u2019s not all; PewDiePie likewise accused T-Series of getting its start by providing pirated songs \u2013 a claim that T-Series called \u201cabusive, vulgar, and also racist in nature\u201c in their alleged court order against Kjellberg. Jake Paul steps in to help PewDiePie\u2019s latest discovery regarding his race against T-Series follows controversial YouTuber Jake Paul\u2019s trip to the label\u2019s HQ a few days beforehand. Although Paul didn\u2019t actually end up infiltrating the company\u2019s main building, his presence (wearing a \u2018Subscribe to PewDiePie\u2019 T-shirt, no less) boosted Kjellberg above T-Series in a big way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
