YouTube star and musician Elijah Daniel is leaving his mark on a famous Michigan town.

The 25-year-old announced Tuesday he bought the town of Hell, Michigan for three days.

He's also officially renamed it "gay hell" in honor of gay pride month.

His first act as owner was to only allow pride flags to fly in the town.

Daniels said he came up with the idea after President Donald trump banned U.S. Embassies from flying the rainbow flag.

The town's owner says while most support the new name, others are upset.
