Cristiano Ronaldo launched his official YouTube channel in August and it reached an incredible 20 million subscribers in 24 hours. There are now over 66 million and it seems Ronaldo has managed to pull off the one trick that could take that count and make it seem insignificant.

The Portuguese superstar teased a new guest set to appear on his channel, telling the old Manchester United teammate Rio Ferdinand that the secret star is even more famous than Ronaldo se. This reduces the possibilities. In the case of YouTube, one potential candidate particularly stands out.

“We’re going to break the Internet,” the teaser video claims. Elon Musk has only destroyed one social media platform so far and Kim Kardashian’s internet-breaking photographs are now ten years old. There’s only one way to break the Internet through YouTube in 2024: hire the biggest YouTuber of them all.

A leaked photo very subtly redacted appears to show that Ronaldo achieved exactly that. Ronaldo’s next guest will be MisterBeastwhose colossal fame was generated by an obsessive approach to optimizing YouTube videos, a desire to spend money in the name of performative philanthropy and no stone was left unturned.

MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, has repeatedly revealed his desire to separate his fame from YouTube, but claims a thriving channel with over 330 million subscribersby far the biggest on the platform. His most recent video has attracted a whopping 97 million views and a collaboration with Ronaldo makes so much business sense that it’s almost surprising it hasn’t already happened in the few months since Ronaldo joins YouTube.

Donaldson’s football successes include “We took street children to the football world championship” And “MRBEAST AND ISHOWSPEED SHOW THEIR FOOTBALL SKILLS IN YOUTUBER MATCH”.

Ronaldo has adopted YouTube as he nears the end of an incredibly successful career at the age of 39. After more than 200 international caps, 135 goals scored by Portugal and five Champions League victories, the chances of one of the world’s most famous football players not winning on YouTube in retirement are slim to none .
