Ava Kris Tyson Drama: What We Know About MrBeast Co-Host’s Controversy

by

Ava Kris Tyson, a former associate of MrBeast, announced she would be leaving the channel and social media behind entirely. This decision came after Tyson issued an apology for past remarks that led to allegations of grooming. It began when social media users uncovered alleged online conversation between a user named LavaGS, who was a minor at the time. Lava has since come out in defense of Tyson, though she still stepped down from the MrBeast channel. Below, we’ve broken down some of the allegations concerning Tyson’s online behavior over the last ten years.

The Accusations Unveiled

The accusations against Ava Kris Tyson are primarily focused on her interactions on social media throughout the years. Tyson, who transitioned in 2023, has been the subject of significant anti-LGBTQ+ harassment since then. Recent allegations suggest that starting in 2016, when Tyson was 20, she engaged in inappropriate correspondence with a user named LavaGS, who was then 13. Lava, now 20 and an editor, later took a job with MrBeast and visited the Beast compound. These interactions have led some to believe that Lava was “groomed” by Tyson.

Tyson’s Defense

Tyson took to social media to vehemently deny the grooming allegations. In a series of posts, she stated that she had never groomed anyone, specifically mentioning Lava. Tyson admitted that her past humor was inappropriate and expressed her commitment to personal growth. Lava also supported Tyson’s statement by tweeting that he was not a victim and that their interactions were being misrepresented by others.

“I would like to apologize for any of my past behavior or comments if it hurt or offended anyone. It was not my intent. Seeing recent events we’ve mutually decided it’s best I permanently step away from all things MrBeast and social media to focus on my family and mental health,” Tyson wrote. “I want to add, I never groomed anyone. The person who gets brought up in these accusations @LavaGS has vocally supported that they are false.”

MrBeast’s Response

Following a brief period of silence and immense backlash, Beast issued a statement regarding Tyson’s online behavior. In the tweet, the YouTuber expressed his disgust surrounding the alleged comments made by Tyson. He also said that he’s hiring an independent investigator to look into the matter. 

“Over the last few days, I’ve become aware of the serious allegations of Ava Tyson’s behavior online and I am disgusted and opposed to such unacceptable acts. During that time, I have been focused on hiring an independent third party to conduct a thorough investigation to ensure I have all the facts,” he wrote. “That said, 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.I will allow the independent investigators the necessary time to conduct a comprehensive investigation and will take any further actions based on their findings..”

Reactions From Involved Parties

Lava, in an interview with Rolling Stone, claimed that his story had been distorted by the creators who first brought these allegations to light. He insisted that their portrayal of the events was misleading and motivated by an agenda. The creators in question denied any intentional wrongdoing, arguing that Tyson’s actions needed to be exposed. Lava emphasized that he had always viewed his interactions with Tyson as benign and typical of his friendships at that age.

MrBeast Breaks Silence On Ava Kris Tyson Allegations And Takes Swift Action

by

MrBeast has been in the news quite a bit as of late and not for the best of reasons. Firstly, he was thrust into the news cycle over allegations of grooming against team member Ava Kris Tyson. This subsequently led to lots of online backlash with fans begging the YouTube star to fire Tyson. Although the alleged victim has come out and said they were not groomed and that Tyson is cool, the internet backlash has persisted. So much so that MrBeast came through with a statement late last night.

In this statement, MrBeast said that he hired an investigator to get to the bottom of what happened. He also wants to make sure this does not happen again. In the interim, Tyson has been fired from the MrBeast team. “Over the last few days, I’ve become aware of the serious allegations of Ava Tyson’s behavior online and I am disgusted and opposed to such unacceptable acts,” MrBeast wrote.

MrBeast Allegedly Makes Inappropriate Comments About 14-Year-Old Bhad Bhabie In Resurfaced Clip

by

It goes without saying that MrBeast, born James Stephen “Jimmy” Donaldson, has found tremendous success online for his impressive giveaways and more. Now, however, he’s being called out for some upsetting alleged comments about Bhad Bhabie. In an old clip making its rounds online, he and some other content creators seemingly discuss the then 14-year-old when he allegedly makes a suggestive comment about her. “Let’s be real, you wouldn’t put your dick in her?” MrBeast allegedly asks.

The uncomfortable conversation continued and also featured several more inappropriate comments about Bhad Bhabie from him and others. Allegedly, MrBeast was 19 years old when the clip was recorded. For obvious reasons, social media users are shocked and outraged.

MrBeast Faces Backlash For Alleged Bhad Bhabie Remarks

Of course, the resurfaced clip also arrives just days after MrBeast’s former employee Ava Kris Tyson quit after being accused of previously exchanging inappropriate messages with a 13-year-old fan. She denies the allegations. According to her, she’s learned from the past and doesn’t want her actions to negatively impact others who work for MrBeast. “I would like to apologize for any of my past behavior or comments if it hurt or offended anyone,” she wrote earlier this week. “It was not my intent. Seeing recent events we’ve mutually decided it’s best I permanently step away from all things MrBeast and social media to focus on my family and mental health.”

“I want to add, I never groomed anyone. The person who gets brought up in these accusations @LavaGS has vocally supported that they are false,” Tyson also wrote. At the time of writing, MrBeast has yet to address the allegations. Bhad Bhabie has also yet to comment on the situation.

Kai Cenat’s MrBeast Stream Ends In Explosion After Friend Sets Off Fireworks Indoors

by

Kai Cenat recently teamed up with MrBeast for a stream, but unfortunately, it only lasted a little over 30 minutes. Early on, the 22-year-old internet personality showed off a massive pile of fireworks in honor of Independence Day. AMP Davis eventually showed up with a large box labeled “professional use only,” which is where the issues began.

“Jimmy, you know where I spent the last year?” he asked MrBeast. “Not at the AMP House. I lived at my mom’s house, I rented a hotel, I got a condo in the city of Atlanta—all ’cause of last July 4th.” He then warned MrBeast, as Cenat pleaded for him not to set off the fireworks. “This is not even f*cking safe, dumba**. Don’t do it. Tomorrow, tomorrow!” he said. “Hey, I’m gonna be honest with you MrBeast, if you don’t leave, you gonna get blown up,” Davis declared.

Unsurprisingly, MrBeast got out of there, as Cenat tried to get Davis not to light the fuse. He did it anyway, prompting both of them to run out of the room. “What the f*ck? Why would you do that?” Cenat could be heard shouting amid the explosion. As clips of the chaos began to make their rounds online, fans began to speculate that this wasn’t Cenat’s real filming space, but a set constructed specifically for this stream. At the time of writing, this remains unclear, though Cenat seemed irritated in a Tweet shared after the wild moment.

“IM DONE WITH ALL THIS SH*T!!!!! BET,” he wrote. What do you think of AMP Davis seemingly blowing up Kai Cenat’s room? Do you think it was actually his filming space or a set? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

MrBeast Reality Will Award $5 Million Grand Prize - Biggest in TV History On New Prime Video Reality Show

Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, the biggest YouTuber in the world with 245 million subscribers whose brand is aligned with big-money giveaways, is thinking even bigger on his new reality show, Beast Games, which is in the works at Amazon’s Prime Video. Variety reports that his show, which he’s calling Beast Games, “is a reality-competition show promising the winner a $5 million cash prize.” This seems to be the biggest payout ever in TV history.

Details remain under wraps. However, according to Prime Video, the show will feature 1,000 contestants, yes 1,000, all competing for a single $5 million payout in a “fast-paced and high-production format.” That’s a lot of people and whole lotta dough. 

MrBeast will serve as the show’s host and executive producer of Beast Games. There’s no premiere date, but the show will only be available on Prime Video worldwide.

“My goal is to make the greatest show possible and prove YouTubers and creators can succeed on other platforms,” MrBeast said in a statement. Amazon gave me the creative control I needed to try and make it happen. I hope to make the YouTube community proud.”

Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios, said, “MrBeast has captured the attention and imagination of fans of all ages, from all walks of life, and all over the world. We are excited to work with Jimmy and his talented team to bring his brilliant, high production, and stakes-raising concepts to Beast Games for our global customers to experience.”

“When MrBeast first told us about his concept for the show, we were blown away by his ambition to make Beast Games the biggest reality competition series ever,” from Vernon Sanders, head of television at Amazon MGM Studios. Sanders also thanked Spotter, and their founder Aaron DeBevoise and president Nic Paul, for the introduction to MrBeast “and kickstarting this journey for us.” Spotter pays YouTube creators cash for the rights to monetize their video libraries and helps them grow their fanbases, counts MrBeast as a client.

Variety also reports MrBeast, who currently works and lives in Greenville, N.C., generated roughly 82 million in gross earnings from June 2022-June 2023, according to Forbes, more than twice the earnings of the closest digital creator.

After facing criticism, he tweeted: “I already know I’m gonna get canceled because I uploaded a video helping people, and to be 100% clear, I don’t care.

One replied: “Many individuals are going hate you and your video content for silliest and nonsensical reasons, but keep being yourself and keep producing great content. Excellent job on the new video! It’s heartening to witness many people having access to fresh, safe drinking water.”

In the video itself, MrBeast travels to Zimbabwe where he and his team help a hospital with a new water source. In Kenya, he works with a local school and donates tanks in which residents can store fresh water. Be on the lookout for further updates on MrBeast on HotNewHipHop.

xQc Reveals How Much His Contracts Are Worth, Speaks On MrBeast Controversy

by

xQc has claimed that the combined worth of his gambling promotion deals and streaming contract with Kick is in excess of $275 million. The former pro Overwatch player made the massive claim on a recent stream. xQc was once one of the biggest names of Twitch, quitting his esports career to stream full-time. However, he left Twitch to join Kick on a massive deal last year. Despite this, xQc could be exaggerating the amount his contract is worth. Kick cofounder Trainwrecks has stated that a lot of the numbers streamers have publicly stated about their streaming contracts are untrue. Furthermore, Trainwrecks noted that these inflated figures have actually hurt Kick’s ability to contract new streamers to the site.

However, xQc certainly is one of the biggest streamers around right now. And as part of the same stream, he also took some shots at one of the biggest content creators out there. Weighing in on the ongoing MrBeast controversy, xQc claimed that all of MrBeast’s challenge videos are scripted. xQc, who has participated in a number of the content creator challenge videos, claimed that everything is planned in advance. It’s a huge claim, especially for someone like MrBeast, who has built his entire brand on authenticity.

MrBeast Controversy Explained

xQc’s comments come after actress and content creator Rosanna Pansino claimed that MrBeast edited her out of a $1M hide-and-seek video. Pansino claims that she finished second in the event behind another creator called Quackity. However, Pansino claims that both she and Quackity were edited out of the final three in favor of the likes of Logan Paul. After making her claims on social media, MrBeast reached out to her directly but appeared unwilling to say anything in text messages, insisting that they call and discuss the issue.

However, Pansino has since apologized to MrBeast for taking her accusations public and has deleted all her content relating to the controversy. While she has not walked back her allegations, she attributed her dropping the matter to the “thousands of death threats” she had received from MrBeast’s loyal fanbase. While Pansino appears to be looking to move on from her allegations, xQc’s comments may only serve to once more stoke the flames of the entire thing.

Tom Brady On Possibility Of Unretiring Again: “My Family Would Kill Me”

by

Tom Brady has once more shut down the idea that he might one day return to the NFL, saying his family would “kill him” if he did. The latest broaching of the topic came after YouTuber MrBeast suggested that the ratings of Brady’s Let’s Go podcast, on which Beast was guesting, would skyrocket if Brady returned to the league. “My parents would call, my kids would call. They’d kill me. I wouldn’t be around by tonight,” Brady said.

Furthermore, it’s not a statement without precedent. Brady’s decision to unretire and play in the 2022 NFL season was widely been cited as one of the factors that led to his high-profile divorce from Gisele Bündchen. However, Brady has been adamant that his retirement following the 2022 season is final. He won’t be coming back to the league to help the Pats, Jets, Raiders, or whoever else desperately needs a starting quarterback.

Tom Brady Hints At Private Life Drama

(Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images)

However, maybe staying from football is the best thing for Brady right now. In a recent episode of Let’s Go, Brady hinted at some trouble behind the scenes in his life. “We should all have self-awareness, it’s a hard trait to have. “We’re in a culture where it’s hard to own up to things these days. For someone like me, I’m in the public eye a lot. I always try to say the right thing. I don’t want to deal with any more drama in my life, I already have a lot of drama,” Brady said. It’s unclear what drama Brady is referring to in particular.

However, one likely source may be his love life. Brady split with long-time wife Gisele Bündchen last year. Bündchen has begun to open up about the divorce in more detail in recent weeks. Meanwhile, Brady has been linked to a fling with Russian model Irina Shayk. Despite this, reports suggest that Shayk is more interested in getting hitched to her long-time ex, Bradley Cooper.

MrBeast Warns Fans About A.I. Deepfakes: “This Is A Serious Problem”

by

Recently, MrBeast took to social media to warn fans of the dangers surrounding deepfakes generated using artificial intelligence. The internet personality shared a clip of an advertisement he claims his supporters have been seeing as of late, which features a deepfake of him promoting what appears to be a scam. The deepfake of him encourages his fans to click a link in order to claim an iPhone for only $2, claiming that he’s doing “the world’s largest iPhone 15 giveaway.”

Apparently, the account that posted the video is also verified on TikTok, making it all the more possible for supporters to be tricked. “Lots of people are getting this deepfake scam ad of me,” MrBeast captioned the clip. “Are social media platforms ready to handle the rise of AI deepfakes? This is a serious problem.” To most people, it’s probably obvious that the video is A.I. generated. With that being said, a large portion of his following is made up of children, who are far more likely to be lured in by the thought of getting an unbelievably cheap gadget.

MrBeast Brings Attention To A.I. Deepfake Scams

MrBeast is also known for blessing strangers with out-of-pocket gifts, which could make the deepfake’s claims more convincing. Previously, he’s given out luxury cars, bags full of money, and much more. Clearly, the fact that artificial intelligence allows people to create videos of anybody doing anything they want is pretty scary. It seems as though the general consensus is that this particular one of MrBeast is easy to spot. Despite this, it remains important for internet users not to believe everything they see, particularly if their favorite YouTuber is promising them a free or shockingly cheap device.

What do you think of MrBeast warning people about the dangers of A.I. deepfakes? Do you find this A.I. deepfake of MrBeast to be convincing, or did you know it was fake right away? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more news.
