The actor, VoiceoverPete, is a video spokesperson who sells his services on the online marketplace fiverr, similar to that of Big Man Tyrone.

Fiverr Account Termination

On November 5th, 2018, voiceoverpete’s fiverr account was abruptly banned from the platform.

Shortly after, Pete uploaded a video to his youtube channel, further explaining the situation and his future plans. (shown below)



The same day, "Grandayy": tweeted that Voiceoverpepe was banned from the platform, calling for viewers to help him get reinstated along with the hashtag #JusticeForVoiceoverPete (shown below). Within four hours, the tweet gained over 13,000 likes and 3,200 retweets.
