MrBeast Versus His Own Co-Hosts: From Revenge Softcore Porn To Stolen YouTube Play Button

MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, is a prominent American YouTuber known for his elaborate and often philanthropic videos.

Born in May 1998, he rose to fame with his attention-grabbing stunts, extravagant giveaways, and large-scale charitable acts.

Boasting north of 300 million subscribers, MrBeast's main channel, has become the most subscribed individual channel on YouTube since 2023, and managed to topple T-Series as the most subscribed channel, ever.

Because fame means increased attention, with Donaldson continuing his work, people in his inner circles get their own splash of fame.

Because fame means increased attention, people who began digging their pasts, realized that Ava Kris Tyson had done things wrong in his past.

First of, Tyson, who co-hosts the popular YouTube channel MrBeast, is under scrutiny after someone resurfaced an old video posted on his former YouTube channel.

In the video, Tyson, known as Kris Tyson before transitioning from male to female, shared explicit images of Jennette McCurdy from iCarly.

In the controversial video, Tyson made the public to realize the existence of McCurdy leaked images, which were reportedly shared without her consent by her ex-boyfriend, NBA star Andre Drummond, in 2014.

"What the story is, she sent pictures to her boyfriend, her now ex-boyfriend, and he leaked them out. And she is a very popular Nickelodeon star on the show iCarly." Tyson said at the time.

"You'll probably see the photos get taken down at some point tonight, maybe tomorrow, because Nickelodeon has that kind of power. But the link's in the description if you want to see them."

It's worth noting, that Tyson didn't encourage anyone to go and look McCurdy wearing less to no clothing, the MrBeast co-host did provide a link to the explicit material.

"I'm not endorsing people to go look at somebody else's private business, but I know that people might want to see them, so it's there if you want it."

The allegations have sparked outrage, and this gets even bigger when allegedly, he also had inappropriate conversations with minors.

If the aforementioned two incidents aren't bad enough, things get worse when it's realized that Tyson had also used the N-word on stream.

Following these allegations, Jimmy Donaldson hires investigators over his co-host's grooming claims, saying that he is aware of the "serious allegations of Ava Tyson's behavior online."

"I am disgusted and opposed to such unacceptable acts," he said.

Donaldson said that he had "been focused on hiring an independent third party to conduct a thorough investigation to ensure I have all the facts."

"That said," he continued, "I've seen enough online and taken immediate action to remove Ava from the company, my channel, and any association with MrBeast."

"I do not condone or support any of the inappropriate actions."

Tyson has also apologized for "past behavior" which was "not acceptable."

But before he would do anything, the YouTuber said that he would wait for the investigators to finish their work and "take any further actions based on their findings."

Despite Tyson being his longtime friend and colleague, Donaldson is not tolerating such act.

And if that isn't enough for MrBeast, reports also said that he's furious over what Ludwig did behind his back.

It all began when Ludwig claimed to have stolen the YouTube Play Button after shooting the 50 YouTubers fight for $1,000,000 video.

At the time, MrBeast had some of the biggest names on YouTube to compete for the prize, and to help make things more interesting, Donaldson struck a deal with YouTube to have replica play buttons created for each participant.

In the video, the winner was revealed to be JaidenAnimations.

The channel planed to use the $1 million to send some its 13 million subscribers, to art school in the near future.

And here, Ludwig revealed after the video went live that he stole the one with Jaiden’s name on it, and donated the channel's diamond play button to an annual charity auction

But it was after this, that MrBeast was quite unhappy with that move.

"I didn’t realize their deal with YouTube, so I just stole Jaiden’s because I thought it would be funny," he said. "The day the video comes out, I told my chat that I got the play button and I’m going to sell it at Connor’s auction."

"And then, my phone blew up. I’m gone the whole day, then I come back and it’s MrBeast’s team. Apparently, they signed a legal contract stating that you can’t sell it. Now, I can’t auction it off [at CDawgVA’s charity auction.]"

It's worth noting though, that MrBeast's Jimmy Donaldson is not entirely off the hook, because old videos featuring the popular YouTuber have also resurfaced.

The first shows how Donaldson responded to fan comments about slavery and repeats racial slurs.

In the video, he appears reading out loud a fan comment that repeatedly used the N-word. He tells the audience, "No more, no, boys – no more typing the N-word in chat. No more cursing."

But after that plea for appropriate remarks, he reads another user comment that again uses that slur.

The other video is from a podcast which feature sexual talk about rapper Bhad Bhabie, then 14-year-old Danielle Bregoli, best known at the time for her Dr. Phil appearance and her catchphrase, "cash me outside."

The video includes banter about having sex with her.

In all, Donaldson and his co-hosts have been accused of racist and sexually inappropriate remarks by social media users.
