World’s biggest YouTube star PewDiePie urges ‘weird’ fans to stay away from his Brighton home
Mega famous web celeb issues plea in video seen by more than two million people
The world's most famous YouTube star has begged "weird" fans to stop turning up at his front door.
PewDiePie, who's real name is Felix Kjellberg, has published an astonishing video describing how hordes of people descend on his Brighton home.
Like many YouTubers, is known for shooting highly personal video blogs (vlogs) in which he directly addresses viewers.
This creates a sense of intimacy far greater than a television star could ever build up with their audience, giving fans the impression they have a personal connection with the stars.
Unfortunately, this can lead to some awkward situations.
In a video that's been watched more than two million times, PewDiePie said: "Since I started doing YouTube I've lived in six different locations and I've had fans coming up to each and every single one of them.
"It's so weird. Just stop."
He said parents brought their kids to his door, whilst whole classes of youngsters would also turn up.
He added: "From my perspective, that's just insane.
"If you do come to my house I will not greet you or take a picture with you. If you've come from really far away, you really shouldn't have done that.
"This is about my privacy."
