Chris Tyson has been one of MrBeast\u2019s besties for many years and is often featured in the YouTube mogul\u2019s videos and other viral content. Although Chris has served as a supporting character in MrBeast\u2019s entourage of buddies for quite some time, they became the center of attention in April after fans noticed big changes in their appearance. Chris responded to the speculation in a viral tweet, clarifying that they\u2019d been on HRT (hormone replacement therapy) for two months at the time and are transitioning. Since then, Chris\u2019s transition and gender identity have become a major point of contention among both fans and critics of MrBeast. However, MrBeast himself has been vocally supportive of Chris, and has lashed out at criticism of their friendship on several occasions. Chris Tyson says MrBeast has been supportive of their gender identity for years Chris addressed the subject in GeorgeNotFound\u2019s BANTER podcast on May 10, where they claimed that MrBeast has actually been aware of their gender identity for years and was supportive of them the entire time. \u201cI mean, Jimmy\u2019s known it since we were in college together,\u201d Chris explained. \u201cI accidentally walked out of a bedroom \u2014 like, my bedroom and his bedroom were apart \u2026obviously not very cis-het-male. And I told him. I told him, I was like, \u2018I don\u2019t really know what it is. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019m ever gonna be ready to like, deal with it.’\u201d \u201cAnd he was like, \u2018Oh yeah, you know, I don\u2019t care. Just whenever it becomes a thing, just let me know.\u2019 And then for like, seven years, or however many years, I just didn\u2019t let him know.\u201d Although Chris wasn\u2019t always sure of the \u201cexact terms\u201d of their identity, they say they\u2019ve been \u201cvery sure that a cis male is not correct\u201d for them since they were young.
