Fans have been buzzing about the recent collaboration between Cristiano Ronaldo and MrBeast, two giants in their respective fields. Ronaldo, a football legend with a massive global following, and MrBeast, the most-subscribed YouTuber, teamed up in what was promised to “break the internet.” With a combined audience of nearly 400 million subscribers, the collaboration generated immense hype and curiosity.
But did the video live up to its expectations? Here’s a closer look at the collaboration, its reception, and what it means for both stars’ ventures in the digital space.
Why fans think Cristiano Ronaldo and MrBeast’s collab ‘failed’?
The collaboration between Cristiano Ronaldo and MrBeast, titled “I Meet MrBeast to Break the Internet!!”, brought together two of the most influential figures in their fields.
Despite the hype, the video gained 12 million views in its first 10 hours, falling short of record-breaking expectations. In comparison, the Grand Theft Auto VI trailer recently achieved over 90 million views within 24 hours, highlighting a significant gap.
Ronaldo’s YouTube channel grew rapidly, reaching 50 million subscribers in a week. The collaboration with MrBeast aimed to strengthen his presence on the platform further. MrBeast, with 331 million subscribers, has a track record of delivering some of the most-viewed videos on YouTube. Despite this, their combined reach of nearly 400 million subscribers did not translate into a record-breaking performance for this video.
During their meeting, MrBeast suggested ways for Ronaldo to grow his channel. These included collaborations with influencers and sports figures like Tom Brady and iShowSpeed. He also recommended creating reaction videos to Ronaldo’s iconic goals, which could attract a wider YouTube audience. This advice reflects popular strategies for boosting engagement.
While the video didn’t “break the internet,” it is still one of Ronaldo’s most popular uploads. As he balances his football career with YouTube, his channel has strong potential to grow through focused collaborations and content.
