Jimmy Donaldson, globally known as MrBeast, is an American YouTuber, entrepreneur, and philanthropist who revolutionized online content creation through high-budget stunts and massive giveaways. He is the most-subscribed individual creator on YouTube, having surpassed 460 million subscribers as of January 2026. In early 2026, Donaldson is dominating the streaming landscape with the release of "Beast Games" Season 2 on Amazon Prime Video. Premiering on January 7, 2026, the season features a "Strong vs. Smart" theme, pitting 100 physically dominant competitors against 100 geniuses for a $5 million prize. The show's launch follows a turbulent production period for its first season, which was the subject of a widely publicized class-action lawsuit filed in late 2024 regarding contestant working conditions. Beyond content, Donaldson continues to expand his business empire. His chocolate and snack brand, Feastables, remains a retail juggernaut, reportedly generating over $250 million in annual sales. In 2025, he launched Lunchly, a pre-packaged lunch brand, further diversifying his consumer product portfolio. despite a company valuation exceeding $5 billion, Donaldson famously claimed in a January 2026 interview that he is "cash poor" because he reinvests nearly all profits back into his productions. He is also known for his philanthropic initiatives, including Beast Philanthropy, which operates as a non-profit food pantry and disaster relief organization. In his personal life, he is engaged to author and streamer Thea Booysen.
