Jake Paul Disney star: What Disney show did the YouTuber-turned-boxer feature in?
Before entering the world of boxing, Jake Paul made YouTube videos involving pranks and rap songs.
'The Problem Child' started his professional career on Vine and YouTube in 2014. After his initial success on the platform, Paul was called up by Disney Channel to act in a TV show.
Jake Paul played the role of Dirk Mann in the show Bizaarvark for two seasons. Paul's character in the show was a person who would take dare requests from people and then perform them.
After quitting the show, Paul started focusing more on his YouTube career. He ran into a lot of controversy for the pranks he pulled in the videos.
