MrBeast faces allegations of racism and sexism after controversial past videos reemerge

YouTuber MrBeast is being criticized for his comments in old videos - including one about Bhad Bhabie.

Popular YouTube personality MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, is facing criticism as old videos of his surface online, prompting allegations of racist and sexually inappropriate behaviour. 

In one controversial clip, MrBeast addresses fan comments related to slavery and repeats racial slurs. Another video from a podcast features sexual commentary about rapper Bhad Bhabie, also known as Danielle Bregoli, who was 14 years old at the time.

The resurfacing of these videos comes at a challenging time for MrBeast, as his organisation is already under scrutiny over former co-host Ava Kris Taylor's involvement in inappropriate communications with a 13-year-old when she was 20. 

Taylor has since departed from the MrBeast team, and Donaldson has publicly condemned her actions. The victim of Taylor's communications has also voiced complaints, despite initially defending her.

MrBeast, who boasts over 300 million YouTube subscribers and an estimated net worth of $700 million, is now facing increased scrutiny. 

In one of the highlighted videos, Donaldson is seen reading out a fan comment that includes a racial slur and urging viewers to refrain from such language, yet he proceeds to read another comment that contains the same offensive term. 

The other controversial video features inappropriate discussions about Bhad Bhabie.
