MrBeast's media company has been sued by a former employee over claims of sexual harassment and workplace gender bias.

The 27-year-old, real name Jimmy Donaldson, is the world's most-followed YouTuber and employs more than 500 people.

Lorrayne Mavromatis, a former executive who worked for his company Beast Industries between 2022 and 2025, alleged harassment of women employees was "condoned" and complaints were not taken seriously at the business.

A representative for Beast Industries described the allegations as "categorically false" in a response to BBC Newsbeat.
