Clubhouse is a newly released social networking app that allows users to join huge group calls where they can listen to conversations and interviews on a wide variety of topics. The app is currently invite-only, and this has made joining the community even more appealing for many. This has naturally attracted many influencers and celebrities to the app, with Elon Musk and Kanye West even agreeing to do a voice-chat together. YouTuber Jimmy \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson was one creator people were looking forward to seeing on the app. Known for his crazy YouTube videos, fans felt that the 22-year-old would have a lot to offer the community. However on February 15, Farokh Sarmad, Clubhouse user and founder of Goodlife Media, alleged via Twitter that: \u201cMr. Beast just threw me out of his stage on Clubhouse after bringing me up saying: \u2018I can\u2019t spell your name so let me yote you out.&#8217;\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/farokhgoodlife\/status\/1361185051166261258 Farokh said that Jimmy \u201casked the audience to put photos of ourselves with Gary Vee so I did. He invited me on his stage filled with white dudes only, skipped me twice, then came back to me and just cut me to say that. I didn\u2019t even place a word in.\u201d He described the situation as \u201cblatant racism\u201d and said he felt \u201cdisgusted\u201d and \u201cshocked.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/farokhgoodlife\/status\/1361185745973706753 However, some of the other users who were in the Clubhouse call at the time claimed that that was not how the situation really happened. Twitter user Sealow called the accusations \u201cslander,\u201d writing: \u201cThis is completely false. \u201cJimmy made it clear to everyone on the panel that he wanted a smaller room and that he was going to remove people. I was one of the 4-6 people that got removed.\u201d This is completely false. Jimmy made it clear to everyone on the panel that he wanted a smaller room and that he was going to remove people. I was one of the 4-6 people that got removed. This is complete slander and the inevitable reupload will be clear evidence! pic.twitter.com\/EVpUA0IGkC \u2014 Sealow (@Sealow_) February 15, 2021 Content creator Rene Ritchie explained that they were removing people to make more room for women on the panel to be more inclusive, so they \u201cso moved a bunch of people off to make room \u2014 including Hank Green.\u201d He went on to add: \u201cMrBeast was saying he\u2019s bad at names \u2014 he got my name wrong multiple times. Modding is chaos.\u201d Hey, fellow Montrealer. That\u2019s not what happened. We wanted to add more women to the stage to be more inclusive, so moved a bunch of people off to make room \u2014 including Hank Green. @MrBeastYT was saying he\u2019s bad at names \u2014 he got my name wrong multiple times. Modding is chaos. \u2014 Rene Ritchie (@reneritchie) February 15, 2021 Rene also shared a screen recording of the moment in question, where Jimmy says: \u201cI\u2019m gonna yote you, Colin thanks for coming up,\u201d and before removing Farokh he pauses and says, \u201cUh, sorry I\u2019m really bad with names, I\u2019m gonna yote you as well.\u201d C&#8217;mon now quit spreading lies about @MrBeastYT Here&#8217;s the full context Do you call this racism?!\ud83d\ude29 pic.twitter.com\/I305bdkiDq\u2014 Aditya (@MISwasTaken) February 15, 2021 MrBeast has yet to respond to the situation, and people remain divided in opinion.
