Twitch streamer and YouTuber Kelly "The Act Man" has weighed in on the ongoing controversy involving fellow YouTuber Jimmy "MrBeast." For those unaware, starting from July 2024, Jimmy has been in trouble. First, he was caught in the Ava Kris Tyson saga, and then he faced some serious allegations that included faking videos, fostering a toxic work environment and even hiring an alleged sex offender.
The Act Man, who is known for his commentary-styled videos and critiques, took to his channel to give his take on the situation. The YouTuber surmised that Jimmy had known about the controversial activities (allegations included grooming and supporting CP) related to Ava Kris Tyson:
"Hard to believe that Jimmy would be completely ignorant on all of this stuff regarding one of his closest friends, which makes his (MrBeast) response seem like Tyson was only booted from the company now because it has become a massive scandal. It's more likely that, in my opinion, Jimmy knew the interests of Tyson."

The Act Man reacts to DogPack404's allegations against MrBeast
The Act Man also weighed in on the series of allegations that have been highlighted by DogPack404, a former employee of MrBeast. DogPack404 has made several claims, even accusing Jimmy of faking his videos. Reacting to this claim, The Act Man said:
"You expect stuff in MrBeast's video to be overdramatized. But the overall story you are trying to tell me, I expect that to be true and not scripted. Because if it was, this is just your friend (talking about a contestant in one of Jimmy's videos) and you are scripting his failures and success, I wouldn't watch the video."
DogPack404 also labeled Feastables' (MrBeast's chocolate brand) advertising campaign as misleading. The Act Man said:
"Jimmy has promoted Feastables as a healthier alternative to Hershey's and it turns out the candy has more calories and sugar than Hershey's, which could also be considered false advertising. We are wading through sketchy swamp right now."
Another contentious point from DogPack404's videos was Jimmy allegedly hiring a known sexual offender named "Delaware." Speaking about this situation, The Act Man said:
"Pretty serious red flags. You have to be doing something very wrong to let somebody from the sex offender shuffle onto the payroll. Really not looking good for MrBeast."
The name of another contentious employee of MrBeast's team has surfaced online. Locoya Hill, who was allegedly appointed as the company's COO, is also alleged to have made sexual advances and misconduct.
