Logan Paul gets candid about massive YouTube earnings, fame and feud with Jake Paul in new series 'Paul American'

Logan and Jake Paul, teenage social media stars from Westlake, Ohio, moved to Los Angeles to capitalize on their rising Internet notoriety, eventually becoming the biggest daily vloggers on YouTube after three years and grossing $50 million in 2017.
Fueled by a relentless quest for virality, the brothers' competitive nature led to a public feud around 2017, marked by diss tracks and candid chats that generated millions of views but also drew negative headlines.
In December 2017, Logan sparked major backlash after posting a vlog from Aokigahara, a Japanese forest known for suicides, that showed a corpse and insensitive jokes, leading to the video's removal and a petition for his channel to be taken down.
Despite past controversies, including Jake being charged with criminal trespassing in 2020 and Logan's Aokigahara vlog, the brothers have regained their close bond and ventured into various business and athletic endeavors, such as Jake's boxing career and Logan's involvement in WWE, as highlighted in their new reality series Paul American, which premiered on Max on March 27.
Logan, now 29, is engaged to Nina Agdal with whom he has a daughter, Esmé, born in 2024, while Jake, 28, is newly engaged to Olympic speed skater Jutta Leerdam, and both brothers express a desire to maintain their close relationship despite their competitive careers, with Jake stating in 2023, "We got sucked into the Los Angeles madness, and it got the better of us, and we had to realize, like, look, we're brothers at the end of the day.
