The most subscribed YouTuber, Felix 'PewDiePie' Kjellberg, continues to battle for the title of number one as Indian record label T-Series attempts to dethrone him.
PewDiePie has had the privilege of being the number one YouTuber for a number of years, but T-Series came out of nowhere to threaten his place on top, although he has claimed that he doesn't "really care": "I genuinely don’t. I think that if YouTube does shift in a way that’s more corporate… something else will take its place."
However, he has certainly made the most of the fan interest in the situation, creating multiple videos on the topic and even releasing a diss track, oddly called 'bitch lasagna', to roast the Indian company.
PewDiePie has questioned the legitimacy of T-Series subscriber count, as rumours suggested that every new YouTube account made in India was automatically subscribed to the channel. This was later disproved. During the battle for number one, there has been plenty of drama, and we'll update this article with more information as it progresses.

Despite the onslaught, PewDiePie continues to hit new milestones, despite doubting that he would ever be the first to hit a milestone again after crossing 67 million back in October.
Update, December 30: PewDiePie hits yet another milestone, crossing the 79 million mark. T-Series is beginning to close the gap again, slowly, but still remain over 1 million behind as PewDiePie hits 79,000,000.
Update January 7: PewDiePie has smashed through the 80 million subscriber barrier, however, the Swede's lead has had his lead of over 1.5 million reduced to just 800,000.
Update January 13: PewDiePie is more halfway to 81 million subscribers, but T-Series has now crossed the 80 million mark too. Kjellberg's lead continues to diminish, with T-Series only roughly 440,000 behind, meaning T-Series have gained on him by almost half a million in only a week.
Fellow YouTuber MrBeast attempted to help out PewDiePie by running a citywide advertising campaign inviting people to subscribe to him, to prevent T-Series taking the top spot. Another YouTuber, Justin Roberts, paid $1m for a billboard in New York.
Fans of PewDiePie have also been doing their part, including hacking printers, smart devices, and even hacking GTA V to spread the message that he needs subscribers.
T-Series has managed to come dangerously close to overtaking PewDiePie on multiple occasions, but each time, he has come out on top to keep his seat on the throne. Who will make it the first to 100 million?
