Logan Paul has announced he will no longer be vlogging daily on YouTube.

Paul, 23, has amassed 17 million subscribers since launching his Daily Vlogs series in September 2016, but said he is keen to “exercise his creativity in different ways”.

Logan broke the news in a 16 minute video in which he thanked fans for their support and reassured his followers that “the vlog will never be finished as long as my heart stays thumping on this goddamn earth”.

Paul tweeted the news, posting: “New vlog... The end of Logan Paul vlogs important that you watch.”

Speaking to the camera, Paul said: “We’re still going to be making waves and running this platform because the Logang are the strongest family on the internet that’s a fact.

“The vlog life has been absolutely incredible. It’s a fan driven channel and it’s the end of the daily vlogs. I’m blessed and I’m thankful but this boy wants to exercise his creativity in different ways.

“We have a talk show coming soon it’s called Impulsive. I want to make these hits and dive into music and start new business ventures.”

YouTube star Logan Paul blasted for uploading a video of a dead body in Japan’s ‘suicide forest’

The news comes after he took a one month hiatus from the channel after posting a video from Japan that appeared to feature a suicide victim.

YouTube suspended advertising on his channel and he was later removed from the website's Preferred Program after viewers demanded action.

He returned in January with a seven minute suicide awareness video in which he pledged to donate $1m (£700,000) to prevention groups.

Paul apologised following the backlash, saying he was a “good guy who made a bad decision”.

Speaking on Good Morning America he said: “This was a horrible lapse of judgment. And I can, will, and am going to learn from it and be a better person.

"I believe it happened for a reason and I think 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."
