MrBeast as YouTube’s CEO? Woah, that’s something to ponder about. Susan Wojcicki announced on Feb. 16 that she was done with YT and was stepping down after a couple of decade.
“Today, after nearly 25 years here, I’ve decided to step back from my role as the top of YouTube and begin a brand new chapter focused on my family, health, and private projects I’m keen about,” she announced. “The time is correct for me, and I feel capable of do that because we have now an incredible leadership team in place at YouTube.”
The web, though, barely had time to process all this when MrBeast (literally) posted on X: “Can I be CEO.” No explanation. No follow-up. Just 4 words that threw YouTube’s comment section into overdrive.
Before anyone could start drafting their MrBeast x YouTube fanfiction, the truth check dropped — YouTube’s next boss had already been chosen. YT’s CPO Neal Mohan was stepping in as CEO. Wojcicki confirmed the transition, assuring everyone, “The time is correct for me, and I feel capable of do that because we have now an incredible leadership team in place at YouTube.”
Sorry, web. No 100 Days of MrBeast as CEO challenge.
Truthfully? He’s already running circles across the YouTube game. With 134 million subscribers, the guy has cracked the algorithm prefer it’s a game of Minecraft. He’s turned viral content into an empire—Feastables, Beast Burger, an entire studio dedicated to creating YouTube videos greater, crazier, and more addictive. If YouTube needed a CEO who gets YouTube, MrBeast could be the last word cheat code.
Neal Mohan has the official CEO badge, but let’s not pretend MrBeast isn’t still shaping the platform. The person could tweet “Change the algorithm.” and YouTube HQ would probably no less than consider it.
