While Alissa Violet’s content was part of the draw, many fans tuned in for the drama. Alissa was allegedly kicked out of the Team 10 house by Jake Paul in 2017. The popular YouTuber put a lock on her door and threw her property down the stairs, accusing her of cheating on social media. In return, Alissa accused Paul of ignoring her and manipulating her.

Jake Paul dissed Alissa in “It’s Every Day, Bro,” a now-infamous song that still gets mocked online to this day. Alissa Violet herself made a reaction to the song called “It’s Every Night Sis,” a collaboration with RiceGum that has hundreds of millions of views.

Alissa Violet also released a video called “What you’ve been waiting for,” where she went into more detail about what happened while Alissa and Jake Paul were dating. Alissa claimed that she moved to Los Angeles after meeting Jake Paul and falling “head over heels” for him. The couple was on and off, and Alissa was allegedly told to leave the Team 10 house whenever Paul had other women over. Meanwhile, Alissa claimed that Jake Paul was “controlling” and wouldn’t let her have male friends over.

Alissa said she decided to treat Jake Paul exactly how he had been creating her, which is what led him to finally kick her out for good. Jake Paul responded with a video of his own where he admitted to making many mistakes during the rocky relationship.
