JAKE PAUL

Don't believe the fake media.

I am so lucky to have really good parents. They didn't hesitate to let us go to L.A. They didn't hesitate, because they knew that they raised their kids the right way: to be able to live by themselves and not get caught up by L.A.

When I stopped caring about every other content creator, I became the best one.

I got invited to the White House, and I tried to sleep there overnight without permission. The Secret Service came to my house, and I had to talk to them. They legally couldn't do anything because I didn't do anything wrong, but they yelled at me like a principal.

I come from a small town in Ohio and was always into sports.

I love Bane. I love the Joker. I love Batman.

Off camera, I'm, like, chill and very laid-back. I don't know if the word is 'shy,' but 'reserved.' I'm always thinking.

The way I saw it was, if I had the built-in following and the audience, but I also had the skill set of acting, that would shoot me to the top. Because there's so many good actors. There's so many good-looking people. But the X factor now is social media.

You're only one video away from going viral and changing your life.

A lot of the celebrities' kids are Jake Paulers, and so they'll run up and say, 'My dad is this person,' 'My dad is that person.' I'm, like, 'Yo, what's up bro? How are you?'

I want to become an entertainment, tech, and business mogul just in general.

I know it's a cliche. But, like, literally, I want to create an empire of dozens of talent under me to take my power and multiply it so that I become bigger than myself.

I work harder than every single person I know, and the only person that is on the same level as me is my brother. If you look at the top social media stars, it's me and him. I think that's our advantage. We're not the prettiest; we're not even the funniest, we're not the wittiest, whatever it is.

Like, yes, we had a furniture fire get out of control in our backyard one time. But that didn't harm a single person.

I always say fitness is the first step to greatness. And I try to encourage my fans to be on the same page as that. Because fitness is the first step to setting a habit that you necessarily don't want to do but are still committed to doing every single day. And so I think that's why I always, always try to get a workout in.

I'm really big into lyrics in my own songs, so I look up to Drake in that aspect.

I was, like, 17 years old, making more money than my parents.

I want people talking about me when I'm gone.

I want to take my success and replicate it with other artists.

I'm the first social media star cast as a regular on a Disney Channel series, and I think I'm the first one under 25 from social media to become a series regular.

I like to push my body to the limits.

Drake has always been a huge inspiration of mine, and same with Lil Wayne.

YouTube is the vlogs and my life, then Instagram is comedy skits and pictures that I take. Twitter's text, and Instagram Stories is even more behind-the-scenes vlog stuff. I'm always posting.

I'm in the lane where I can make music but also have it be funny and still good at the same time.

I'd like to be a superhero or a supervillain in a huge action movie. I want to play, like, the Joker or something like that.
