Chunkz is catching heat online after a snippet from his recent podcast episode with KSI started circulating on social media. What was supposed to be a light-hearted conversation turned unexpectedly controversial when a comment about fellow YouTuber Vikkstar123 didn't sit well with fans.
'You can say Vikk, bro': The comment that kicked off the drama
It all started on an episode of
The Chunkz Show
, where Chunkz was chatting with KSI in his usual laid-back style. The topic? Naming the person you vibe with the least, not in a hostile way, but more like who's the one you don't click with?
'You can say Vikk, bro, don't worry
,' Chunkz laughed, nudging KSI to play along.

To KSI's credit, he shut the moment down quickly.
'Nah, I actually like Vikk,'
he said, before praising Vik's growth over the years.
But the clip had already done the rounds, and for many fans, Chunkz's tone came off as dismissive and shady.
Fans call out the 'energy' toward Vikkstar123
Within hours, the clip had made its way onto X (formerly Twitter), where users didn't mince words. Some accused Chunkz of low-key bullying.
Others felt his comments were reflective of a larger issue in the UK YouTube scene that Vikk has always been treated as an outsider. One user wrote,
'Chunkz clearly trying to instigate something.

Another added,
'Tell that fat f*ck to worry about his own friends, the one who was caught r^ping women, or is he in on it too?'
Criticism escalates as old controversies resurface
The situation escalated further when YouTuber Kavos chimed in. He didn't hold back, pointing out that while Chunkz was subtly trying to shade Vikkstar, his own close friend Yung Filly is reportedly under investigation for serious allegations.
Kavos's tweet read,
'Love how Chunkz is trying to s**t on Vikkstar but his best friend is currently under investigation for multiple rapes.'
That comment opened the floodgates. People began comparing Vik's clean track record to the controversies surrounding others in the scene — and questioning why someone like him keeps becoming the target of casual digs.
So, where does this leave Chunkz?
As of now, Chunkz hasn't responded to the backlash. Vikkstar123 also seems to be staying above the drama, remaining silent on social media. Whether Chunkz addresses the heat or lets it blow over remains to be seen. One thing's clear though: fans aren't just here for entertainment; they're watching how creators treat each other, too.

Did Vijay Deverakonda turn down the antagonist role opposite Ranveer Singh in Farhan Akhtar's 'Don 3'?

Picture Credit: Facebook 'Don 3' is one of the iconic action-thriller franchises that is currently in the works. The Farhan Akhtar directorial, which marks the third instalment in the rebooted 'Don' universe, will feature Ranveer Singh stepping into the shoes of the legendary character, with Kriti Sanon as the female lead. While the film is in pre-production, rumours circulated online that actor Vijay Deverakonda had been roped in to play the primary antagonist. The reports suggested that he would be replacing Vikrant Massey, who was earlier linked to the role. Fans were quick to jump on the idea, with many imagining an electrifying showdown between Ranveer and Vijay in Akhtar's stylised action world. Fan frenzy over Vijay's possible Bollywood comeback Vijay marked his entry in Bollywood with 'Liger' alongside Ananya Pandey, which received very low reception at the box office. The possibility of Vijay making his major Bollywood comeback through a negative role in such a celebrated franchise led to fan frenzy on social media. However, a recent report from Gulte mentioned that while Deverakonda was indeed approached for the antagonist's role, he has politely turned down the offer. The actor is currently focused on his upcoming Telugu projects and is being extremely selective with his Bollywood scripts. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dukung Orang Terkasih Menghadapi Limfoma: Mulai Di Sini Limfoma Klik Di Sini Undo Recent reports suggest that Farhan is scouting international locations, including London, to shoot the film's high-octane sequences.

The movie, after a couple of delays, is scheduled to hit the screens on 31 July. Directed by Gowtham Tinnanuri, it stars Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead.
