Career

Jake continued to portray the role of Dirk Mann for two years (2015 – 2017) until he and the channel both decided to part mid-way on mutual agreement. However, the word has it that Jake Paul was fired by the channel because of his atrocious personality, as many complaints were filed against him by his neighbors for wild pranks, parties, and awful fire hazards. In addition to this, the situation went berserk when he posted his address on social media – an act that gathered a massive crowd of his young fans and media coverage, therefore eventually disrupting his neighborhood.

It became one of the reasons for Disney Channel, who no longer wanted an association with Jake, to fire the vine star turned controversial personality, as confirmed by Jake Paul himself in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Following the saga, Jake Paul invested in his creative marketing agency, which goes by Team 10.
