Fans mob visiting YouTube sensation
ONE of the world's most popular and influential young internet stars was hunted down by hordes of local gamers at the weekend when he made an unexpected visit to Guernsey.
With now just over seven million YouTube subscribers, it did not take long before Olajide Olatunji - better known by his alias, KSIOlajidebt, or KSI for short, was tracked down in Town and surrounded by crowds of youngsters, who wanted an autograph or picture with the online sensation.
KSI, who has made a fortune through his online exploits, was visiting the island with fellow YouTube star Harry Lewis, who is from Guernsey and attended the Grammar School.
Another YouTuber, Calfreezy, had also made the trip to the Bailiwick.
KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, uploaded his first YouTube video in 2009 – gameplay from the then latest version of FIFA – a football video game that he is closely associated with.
