Is Logan Paul Coming Back?

Logan returns with an interview with 'Good Morning America.'

In recent times the social media star Logan Paul has been slowly returning to the screens.

In an interview with Good Morning America, Logan Paul says in an emotional state, "It's been tough because ironically I'm being told to commit suicide myself." As we can see it has been hard for this Paul brother to be confronted with this hate as he said in his first apology he has not been faced with this sort of criticism before.

The social media star with over 16 million subscribers went into the suicide forest to camp out and make an entertaining vlog and raise awareness for suicide prevention when all went downhill after he found a dead body, a man who had committed suicide."Things obviously changed pretty drastically and quickly" when his group came across a suicide victim 100 yards from the parking lot. "It doesn't make any sense and I believe it happened for a reason and that reason is so I could take this experience, learn from it, spread the message the right way about suicide prevention and suicide prevention awareness."

Although this only ended up in an immense amount of hate with people calling him "disgusting" and "vile" and ironically telling him to "kill himself," this was way too much for Logan Paul to handle and he ended up leaving YouTube for a while until eventually uploading a video named "Suicide: Be here Tomorrow." This video went very deep showing a man who actually tried to commit suicide and failed and is now working to prevent the same thing that happened to him from happening to others. It also had a clip of him vouching to donate 1 million dollars to suicide prevention!

In the interview, he talks about how he feels about what he did. He knows he has done something bad and he knows that he should be punished for it. When asked if he thought the criticism was fair, Paul laughed and said, "That's the thing, I do." Also during the interview he was asked about being removed from Google preferred. He got very salty and you can tell from his expressions that he did not feel that it was an appropriate action. “I understand that they needed to take a stance,” he says.

“I AM A GOOD GUY WHO MADE A BAD DECISION.”

“While I don’t necessarily maybe agree with it, I do respect it... It hurts, but it’s not like I’m drowning. I try not to live my life thinking about money because money doesn’t make me happy,” he says. “Creating content to make people smile and laugh, that’s what makes me happy.” While he says he doesn't care about money, it is a really nice thing to get on the side of making people laugh.

Something else that happened this week is that TMZ spotted him and did a quick interview. During this interview he is asked about the Grammy's which he describes as "inspiring." Also he is asked about his own singing career in which he responds "big moves, money moves," so this means Logan is releasing a new song? And money moves? Is he going to sign a record deal?

More importantly I do want to talk about this case itself. Suicide is never the way to go, and although this sounds logical to some people, to others suicide seems like the only way forward, but it really isn't. If you have these thoughts, tell someone. It may seem hard to talk to people about these feelings, but isn't it better than killing yourself?
