Sidemen star Ethan Payne has told fans to ‘start a petition’ as he teased a wild gameshow that would be open to the YouTube group’s viewers.
Best known as Behzinga, the 30-year-old co-founded the content creation group, which features KSI, Simon Minter, Vikram Singh Barn, Joshua Bradley, Harry Lewis, and Tobi Brown.
Along with their collective YouTube channels, the Sidemen also host a reality show called Inside, which was picked up by Netflix last year. The high-stakes series follows a group of influencers living under one roof and competing for a huge prize pot of up to £1 million. They face daily challenges and every decision can deduct money from the final cash prize.
While the show has traditionally featured famous faces, Ethan has confirmed that there is hope for a fresh series centred on everyday contestants.
He spoke to the Mirror ahead of the Formula E EVO Sessions, which took place last Sunday (February 16) at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit in Saudi Arabia.
The star competed against the world’s biggest content creators, getting behind the wheel of the cutting-edge GEN3 Evo race car. You can stream all the action now on Formula E’s YouTube channel.
When asked about opening up the Inside competition to their fanbase, Ethan said: “Me and JJ [KSI] have definitely said it would be insane to watch with people from the public.
“Because the amount of care for the prize money would be insane and I feel like you’d get a lot more drama. It might be too much drama.”

The father-of-one continued: “I definitely think there’d be a bit more of a real edge to it and people’s decisions would definitely have way more of a knock-on [effect] throughout the whole thing.” He went on to joke: “Start a petition!”
Sidemen fans should probably get a petition rolling if they want the show to become a reality, though we have to warn that Ethan set the bar at 100,000 viewers co-signing the idea. But it should be an easy feat considering group collectively boasts over 100 million subscribers.
Inside is available to stream on Netflix and Formula E’s 2026 EVO Sessions are available to stream now on YouTube.
