PewDiePie slams Streamy Awards for honoring \u2018undeserving\u2019 Tana Mongeau YouTube sensation Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2018 Kjellberg has taken aim at Tana Mongeau and the Streamy Awards, after the controversial vlogger was named \u2018content creator of the year\u2019 at the 2019 event. The 2019 Streamy Awards took place on December 13 and looked to highlight the efforts of content creators around the world. With 50 awards in total, the annual show shines the spotlight on all manner of categories from gaming to fashion, nominating a number of popular personalities within each. Taking home the creator of the year award, controversial YouTuber Tana Mongeau was brought up on stage by Casey Neistat in a broadcast that has since been viewed over three million times. Among the viewers was PewDiePie, who disagreed with the selection and had some choice words to say in a December 17 YouTube video of his own. With ten creators nominated for their efforts throughout 2019, this particular Streamy Award category acknowledged the likes of Jimmy \u201cMrBeast\u201d Donaldson and Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins. Getting excited over the latter, PewDiePie addressed how he believed that it was \u201cobvious\u201d MrBeast would win the award. \u201cHe had such an amazing impact this year, his growth has been insane,\u201d he elaborated. \u201cHe\u2019s like the one channel that doesn\u2019t have any big controversy. He\u2019s done good on the platform. Some of the other nominations are good, but it\u2019s obvious MrBeast is gonna win it.\u201d To his surprise, Mongeau was announced as the winner and all the Swedish YouTuber could help but do was highlight what he perceived as flaws in the show overall, reacting sarcastically all the while. \u201cReally nice of Tana to come out in her pajamas,\u201d he joked. \u201cWhen Tana said \u2018I don\u2019t deserve this,\u2019 we all felt that\u2026 You literally don\u2019t deserve it, that\u2019s why you feel like that,\u201d he continued. \u201cI hate Tana mainly because she promotes drugs to her 14-year-old audience,\u201d he explained, before showing a brief highlight reel of various cases of such promotion throughout her content. From Adderall to Cannabis the YouTuber with over five million subscribers appears to flaunt her drug use while the cameras are rolling. \u201cThat\u2019s creator of the year?\u201d Outlining how his reaction is mostly in jest, he emphasized how he places little significance on award shows of this kind, stating \u201ceveryone knows [they] are fake anyways. It\u2019s all politics.\u201d \u201cI literally don\u2019t even keep my awards that I have actually gotten because I don\u2019t feel proud of them, it doesn\u2019t mean anything.\u201d Despite being the channel with the third most subscribers on all of YouTube at just over 102 million, PewDiePie hasn\u2019t been nominated in a single category at the Streamy Awards 2016. Fellow YouTuber Ethan Klein of H3H3 reacted in a similar manner in a since-deleted post, joking that her win was \u201cwell deserved.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
