MrBeast not quite in bidding race for TikTok just yet, rep says

Jimmy Donaldson – better known online as MrBeast – isn’t in the TikTok bidding race just yet, according to a representative for the YouTube star. Donaldson stirred interest in a January 13 post on X saying he’d “buy TikTok so it doesn’t get banned.” The next day, Donaldson added, “Unironically I’ve had so many billionaires reach out to me since I tweeted this, let’s see if we can pull this off.”
