MrBeast has found himself in the middle of controversy again. However, this time it is not for one of his YouTube videos. Jimmy Donaldson took to TikTok to post a video in which he gifted a waitress a Toyota Corolla. The girl was visibly in tears.
Known for his kindness, and philanthropic ways, MrBeast does a lot of these random giveaways but this one did not sit well with his audience. They blamed him for blatantly advertising his chocolate on the pretext of “doing something good”.
The car that was gifted to the waitress had a huge branding of MrBeast’s Feastables and that did not sit well with the audience.
MrBeast “tips” waitress a brand new Toyota Corolla
In the video uploaded to his TikTok and Instagram, MrBeast asked the girl what was the biggest tip she had ever received. To which she replied saying”$50“. To this, MrBeast said: “$50? Has anyone ever tipped a car? Have you seen our TikTok before?”
A few seconds into the video, MrBeast walks the waitress to her new car and says: “It’s MrBeast. Does that ring a bell?…don’t pass out. Do you wanna see what’s outside? Let’s go.”
After that, they both head to the car where the girl tells MrBeast how she had been struggling to get to work and make ends meet. However, it was the branding on the car that seemed to have upset people on the internet.
