MAYA JAMA has sparked a feud with KSI as she took a swipe at Sidemen.
What started as a throwaway comment has turned into a back and forth between the Love Island host and the internet stars.
Last month, Maya sat down on The Chunkz Show with social media star and long-time friend Chunkz to talk about all things friendship and life.
Chunkz is a member of Beta Squad, a rival YouTube collective.
Sidemen are also a group of British YouTube stars who have amassed over 22 million followers on the platform alone.
The group was formed in 2013 when they filmed themselves playing video games.
It's made up of Josh Bradley, Simon Minter, Tobi Brown, KSI, Ethan Payne, Vikram Barn and Harry Lewis.
During the podcast Maya was asked which group she prefers, to which she replied: “It's a very clear Beta Squad for me. I'm way closer with them lot.
“I get on with Tobi and I get on with KSI but I don't really know the rest of them And they're like…”
“Not your kind of people,” Chunkz interjected.
She continued: “Like you said, private school, different upbringing to us. No offence, they smashed it well done from being rich."
What may have been a throwaway comment did not sit well with the group who quickly responded on their own podcast.
Speaking about the incident, KSI said: “Let’s talk about the Maya Jama stuff then.”
Before member Ethan Payne interjected: “‘Congrats on making it from being rich’. Shut up! You've never uttered a word to me!”
Opening up about his background revealing that his father was involved with drugs and that he had once sold them, he chimed: “Don’t just assume!”
“There's a lot of that in this industry,” KSI added.
Ethan continued: “If I had her number I would have said, do you know what? Keep it respectful, but f*** you aswell."
KSI then confirms that only him and Simon Minter came from a private school background but revealed his own parents had to work “two three jobs” to keep him there.
"We still worked so hard to get into this position, it's not like we just magically got here," he added.
It seems Maya was not having any of it and quickly took to TikTok comments to defend herself.
She penned: "As people who talk on podcasts, you should know more than anyone about context! Why are you rattled,"
"I was asked who I preferred and CLEARLY said I don't know you, I only mentioned private school because Chunks did earlier and I said 'congratulations on being rich' not coming from money".
Sending a stern warning to Ethan, she finished her comment with: "Mind how you're talking though Ethan."
