Twitch streamer Squeex has garnered attention on social media after he joked about YouTube star Jimmy "MrBeast" amid recent allegations leveled against him. On August 20, 2024, Squeex appeared on Blaire "QTCinderella's" IRL broadcast. At one point, QT noticed a question from a live viewer about why she had not hired a production team for a recent event that she hosted.
The Streamer Awards host responded:
"Oh, sorry. I didn't want to... 'Why QT didn't you hire a producer? Why didn't you hire a production team?' I don't know. We're in Hollywood. They all have pedophiles. Do you want me to hire a pedophile? Tell me that's what you want me to do. Tell me you want me to hire a pedophile."
Squeex joined the conversation and made a joke about MrBeast, saying:
"Who are we? MrBeast? I know. I shouldn't have. 'Hey, guys, MrBeast here. We're about to go for a crazy challenge. I'm going to be using no pedophiles for one video, and it's going to get even crazier. You know, in the end, we're going to use non-union workers. It's about to be crazy! So, smash that like button!'"
QTCinderella added:
"I'm so sorry, MrBeast. When you run for president, I was not here. It's all in good fun, MrBeast. Who hasn't dabbled with some pedophile?"

A brief rundown of some of the allegations made against MrBeast
On August 8, 2024, YouTuber DogPack404 collaborated with Jake Weddle, a former MrBeast employee, in a video titled, I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath. In the 50-minute feature, Weddle made serious allegations against the Kansas native, including the claim that he was sleep-deprived while filming a video.
In another instance, Jake Weddle accused the 26-year-old of hiring a registered s*x offender. Claiming that the alleged employee was fired for "s*xually assaulting some very young people," Weddle said:
"Well, there was a known s*x offender, a registered s*x offender, convicted s*x offender on the registry and everything, who worked there."

Jake Weddle also claimed that the person who was a registered s*x offender was referred to as "Delaware" while working for the most subscribed YouTuber:
"But when I was there, they called him 'Delaware.' I was like, 'Why do you call him Delaware?' Apparently, they called him Delaware because he's not allowed to go back in Delaware. That's his nickname?!
