Vlog Squad, an unofficial collective creator formed by YouTubers orbiting David Dobrik, is under online scrutiny after Insider reported a sexual assault allegation against former Vlog Squad member Dom Zeglaitis.
Dobrik was dropped by 13 sponsors, including SeatGeek and Chipotle; he left Dispo, the app he co-founded; YouTube demonetized its channel, which has been losing views and followers; venture capital firms have cut ties with Dobrik and Dispo; and your podcast has lost sponsors.
But who is the Vlog Squad? The group of friends acts as a revolving door for different creatives to appear in Dobrik’s famous 4-minute and 20-second fast-paced videos. Content often has pranks.
Before the recent allegations, Dobrik was well liked on YouTube, where videos from his main channel have accumulated 8 billion views and 18.5 million subscribers.
Vlog Squad members have been on and off their bikes since Dobrik, a former Vine star, started vlogging in 2015. Each member of the group is a star in its own right, with millions of followers on YouTube and Instagram.
