Now, he\u2019s comparing her to a viral meme from a Looney Tunes cartoon. PewDiePie brought up Singh yet again in his \u2018Meme Awards 2018\u2019 video on December 31, where he compared the viral YouTuber and actress to the \u2018Big Chungus\u2019 meme of recent internet fame. \u201cI don\u2019t think people fathom how big Big Chungus really is,\u201d Pewds said of the meme. \u201cBig Chungus has gotten so popular that they got a live action [movie] confirmed with it, and it\u2019s played by Lilly Singh. Finally, a real actor, playing a really important role.\u201d Appearing in the 1941 Merrie Melodies \u2018Wabbit Twouble\u2019 episode, \u2018Big Chungus\u2019 is merely Bugs Bunny\u2019s imitation of Elmer Fudd, which has since gained fame as a widespread meme \u2013 thanks to an anonymous 4chan user. This isn\u2019t the first time Pewds has thrown major shade toward Singh; in fact, he\u2019s taken issue with the YouTuber on multiple occasions, shading her role in HBO\u2019s \u2018Fahrenheit 451\u2019 and even going so far as to call her an \u201cidiot and a crybaby,\u201d for her stance on Forbe\u2019s top 10 list of highest earning YouTubers. https:\/\/knowyourmeme.com\/memes\/big-chungus Pewds isn\u2019t the only major YouTuber to take shots at Singh, either \u2013 Drama Alert\u2019s Daniel \u2018KEEMSTAR\u2019 Keem called out Singh in a critical Tweet on December 27, calling the YouTuber \u201ctoo plastic\u201d due to her \u201812 Collabs of Christmas\u2019 initiative, which saw her team up with the likes of television personality Dr. Phil, actor Terry Crews, and even John Cena, among other celebs. While Singh has addressed PewDiePie\u2019s comments via Twitter, it doesn\u2019t look like the two YouTubers are making up any time soon. @IISuperwomanII you are trying to hard &#038; becoming too plastic. You would have got more views if you did 12 collabs with smaller YouTubers. I just gave similar advice to someone in our space that\u2019s going mainstream. It\u2019s a common issue we have. \u2014 KEEM :popcorn: (@KEEMSTAR) December 27, 2018<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PewDiePie puts Lilly Singh on blast, compares her to viral meme PewDiePie, YouTube \/ The Cut \/ Vexikkk, DeviantartYouTube king Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg is taking even more shots at popular YouTuber Lilly Singh, after shading her performance in HBO\u2019s Fahrenheit 451.
