Why is #StopJayStation trending on Twitter? KEEMSTAR & more react ImJayStation, YouTubeAlthough YouTuber \u201cImJayStation\u201d is widely known for his controversial videos, a January 2020 upload is sending the internet into a rage, after he claimed that his girlfriend had died in a car accident. JayStation has a history of problematic content, sparking backlash almost like clockwork after the deaths of major celebrity figures or online entertainers. Boasting videos like \u201cEtika Ouija Board Challenge at 3 AM (Gone Wrong)\u201d and \u201cMAC MILLER SPIRIT BOX CHALLENGE AT 3AM,\u201d the YouTuber falsifies conversations with the recently deceased as a means to capitalize on the attention surrounding their (often tragic) deaths. However, a recent upload from the YouTuber, who currently boasts over 5 million subscribers, has spurred outrage across the internet, after he claimed his girlfriend Alexia had been struck by a drunk driver during a night on the road. In wake of the backlash, one major YouTuber is making it his business to stop JayStation\u2019s antics once and for all: Drama Alert\u2019s Daniel \u201cKEEMSTAR\u201d Keem, who urged fans to spread the hashtag \u201cStopJayStation\u201d across social media. Mere hours later, the hashtag has spread like wildfire across Twitter in the United States, with critics begging YouTube to take action against the divisive star. \u201cFriendly reminder that this chump made this disrespectful trash,\u201d one user wrote, attaching a photo of JayStation\u2019s video \u201ccalling\u201d YouTuber Desmond \u201cEtika\u201d Amofah shortly after news of his passing was released.

JayStation even went on to challenge KEEMSTAR to a boxing match, releasing a new hashtag in hopes of settling things by force: #FightJayStation.
