Read our privacy policy The battle between PewDiePie and T-Series to be the world's most popular YouTube channel has taken a bizarre turn, after billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk revealed he hosted PewDiePie's 'meme review'. T-Series was set to take over the top spot in October, however a sustained campaign has allowed PewDiePie to remain the number one channel. Last month, PewDiePie became the first YouTube channel to pass 80 million subscribers and currently has 86.1 million subscribers – just 9,000 more than T-Series. "T-Series is growing four-times faster than PewDiePie and if I don't do anything PewDiePie won't be the number one most-subscribed-to YouTuber in the world," the YouTuber, who goes by the name MrBeast, said in a video.
