JaidenAnimations won MrBeast's $1 million challenge but distances herself from him amid controversy

Jaiden plans to use her prize money to send as many as possible to art school, to pursue their dreams in animation.

JaidenAnimations, the talented YouTuber who recently won MrBeast’s $1 million content creator challenge, has publicly distanced herself from him following the recent controversies. Despite winning a significant portion of the prize money, Jaiden expressed her frustration over the timing of the controversy in a recent tweet, stating, “I love being an animation channel having to take 2 months to work on a video for the topic to become vastly soured within those 2 months, so awesome!”

MrBeast's challenge aimed to empower content creators by awarding a million dollars to the winner, who would then use the money to benefit their subscribers. While Jaiden still intends to fulfill her promise, she has clarified her stance on MrBeast through a disclaimer on her winning video and in its comments section.

The disclaimer states, "Disclaimer, this video was written/started production on June 6th, 2024. I’m not associated with the production/ethics of any Mr. Beast videos, I’m just here to tell my cube story and animation unfortunately takes a long time : ) Thank you!”

The controversy surrounding MrBeast didn't surface until July 21st, well after Jaiden had begun working on her video.

Jaiden also revealed that the six contestants had agreed to split the money, with the winner taking the majority and the others receiving $100,000 each. However, Amixem graciously allowed Jaiden to keep his share, bringing her total winnings to $700,000.

Jaiden plans to use her prize money to send as many people as possible to art school, enabling them to pursue their dreams in animation and other creative fields.

MrBeast has yet to respond to the allegations, but sources suggest he plans to address them comprehensively once all accusations have been made public.
