It might be almost two years since David Dobrik and Liza Kosky have called it quits, but it’s
never too late to reflect on such a pivotal time in one’s life, as he talks about how
their viral breakup has changed him and completely transformed his life.
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News, and if you’re finding
yourself with nothing to do amid the Coronavirus global quarantine today, I’m here to help
you out and suggest you take a quick trip down the Diza rabbit hole AKA David Dobrik
and Liza Koshy’s love story.
I know, I know, ‘what happens in the past should stay in the past’, bla bla bla, but
trust me when I say that there are still no hard feelings between the two, and I’m only
suggesting you soak up the good times because David spoke out about his relationship with
Liza in a new interview, and it’s all good things, I promise.
So we all know where we were when their viral breakup video notification made its way to
our feeds, and we honestly couldn’t help but laugh, cry and reminisce along with them.
Honestly, how could you NOT love them, and how could this not tug at your heartstrings
at least a little bit?
Anyway, the video has been viewed by almost 62 million people since summer of 2018, when
they revealed that nothing bad happened to cause the split -- it was merely a matter
of their lives changing and taking them down separate career paths.
David’s heartfelt breakup post from the time of the split, is literally still being
commented on by fans to this day, as he wrote, “I’ve never written a break up post, but
I would imagine that they’re pretty sad.
So I’m going to skip that part and remind you of how much you mean to me and the people
around you.
You have impacted me and so many others in ways that are hard to express.
I can honestly say you’re the most genuine, hilarious, and brilliant human I’ve ever
known and I’m so lucky to be able to learn from you and call you my best friend.”
The ex-couple has since moved on to much bigger and better things, but in a recent interview,
David credits his three-year relationship with Liza for completely changing his life.
While speaking to The Wall Street Journal over the weekend, David opened up about the
fact that many of his current friendships stemmed from that video.
He said QUOTE, “People that are my friends now, that I hang out with every week, they
tell me that the way they found me is through that breakup video.
So their first impression of me was me crying in Liza’s living room.”
Although it was never his intention to gain a slew of fame from sharing a personal detail
about his life, David revealed that this has completely transformed his career into something
much larger than he ever imagined.
David has reached peak YouTuber-celebrity status while running multiple channels, a
podcast and a line of merch, all while giving back to the public and people in need whenever
he sees an opportunity.
While YouTube is his main platform, David revealed that he has much bigger plans for
the future.
He said QUOTE, “My big dream is to be a late-night host, but it’s like, what does
that even mean?
And what’s that going to mean in four or five years?”
Especially at this time in the world, nobody really knows what the future will hold, but
David was optimistic in his efforts of fulfilling his dream, adding, “I almost feel like if
I can keep this up for a little bit longer, this is exactly what late-night of the future
is, right?
Like, I’ll be able to have the guests on that I want, I’ll be able to interact with
them in the way I want them to be interacting with me.”
I just have to say that I think it’s so awesome David is still crediting Liza with
becoming who he is today, and I think I speak for most fans out there when I say that I
am STILL pulling for these two to reconnect somewhere down the road, but I wanna hear
from you guys.
Do you think Diza could kick things back up again, or are their career paths taking them
in completely different directions?
Get the conversation going down here in the comments, but I should have you know that
fans are actively still hoping these two reconcile almost two years later.
Seriously though, these two created some of the best content together, which David has
actually stated he would gladly still watch from time to time, and with their humor, kind
hearts and willingness to give back, and lovable demeanor, how could they NOT be YouTube’s
most elite?!
Because of David’s massive rise to fame, some of his most notable videos to date, aside
from insane pranks and letting fans in on his life, he’s done his share of giving
back to people in need.
Last month, he surprised a 21-year-old single mother who attends college, works three jobs
and cares for her sick mother, with a check for $25,000 as seen in a heartwarming video
that’ll DEFINITELY have you reaching for the tissues.
He has also given a homeless man a car and a year supply of Chipotle among many other
charitable gestures.
BUT if there’s one word of advice when starting out in the YouTube-sphere, David revealed
QUOTE, “If you’re in it for the money, there is no way you will ever make it!
Never.
I just made fun videos with my friends.
That’s the key.
Actually that’s not the key.
Laughs.
Don’t watch this and take tips from me.
Just go do you.
If people see that you’re passionate about what you’re creating, they’re going to
enjoy it.”
I think we can all take a little something from David and his videos, BUT going back
to he and Liza, I wanna know what you guys think about David’s comments about how she
helped him rise to fame, and if you think there’s a chance they’ll ever get back
together in the future.
