Cristiano Ronaldo’s YouTube Channel Surges Past 25 million Subscribers in 24 Hours

Posted : 23 August 2024

Cristiano Ronaldo, though no longer regarded as the world's best player, remains a dominant force online. His new YouTube channel amassed over 25 million subscribers within 24 hours, as fans rally to help him surpass the record set by Jimmy Donaldson, better known as "Mr. Beast." Donaldson gained fame through elaborate stunts and large cash giveaways, but recent controversies involving allegations of racism and claims that people featured in his videos don't receive the promised money have fueled a desire among Ronaldo’s supporters to see him eclipse Donaldson’s record.
 

Ronaldo’s fans are actively tracking the subscriber count on his channel through a live broadcast, with numbers steadily increasing despite minimal promotion from the football star himself. Ronaldo’s approach has been understated, relying mainly on Instagram posts to direct his followers to his new YouTube venture. The channel has quickly become a battleground for fans to challenge Mr. Beast and rally others to support Ronaldo’s quest for the record.
 

The content on Ronaldo’s channel seems carefully curated, focusing on portraying his glamorous family life in a manner reminiscent of reality TV. The channel features videos such as a free-kick competition between Ronaldo and his son, showcasing a nostalgic nod to his days at Real Madrid. This content, while polished and meticulously staged, aims to build a reality empire similar to the Kardashian model, blending personal moments with promotional endeavors.
 

Despite the allure of his online presence, Ronaldo’s online success highlights a broader trend: his shift from active football to a focus on social media as he nears the end of his playing career. The Saudi league, where he currently plays, lacks the global appeal of European football, leaving Ronaldo to leverage social media to maintain his prominence. While breaking Mr. Beast’s record seems likely, Ronaldo’s true aspiration remains to achieve on-field success, which he might trade for any social media milestone.
