Every individual goes through several changes throughout the various stages of life. The curious case of popular content creator Chris Tyson took this a step further. Christopher Tyson, best known for his appearances in MrBeast’s YouTube videos, has been making rounds for the past few weeks, for good and bad reasons.
Tyson recently revealed to his fanbase that he had started Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for the last two months. This has led to a very drastic change in his appearance and mannerisms. While the North Carolina native seems fairly happy about his new life, fans have remained divided ever since.
Tyson has been drawing constant heat and backlash from famous personalities and online trolls to this day. So much so that his close pal and famous YouTuber MrBeast had to come to his rescue on occasions more than once. Despite undertaking the treatment for only two months, Tyson has already started noticing several changes, and so have the fans.
Chris revealed he has struggled with gender dysphoria for several years. However, becoming a father to a beautiful boy named Tucker helped him reaffirm his decision to begin the HRT treatment. Post beginning the treatment, Tyson has shown himself with drastically longer hair and a clean-shaven face. He has been comfortable enough to also appear with his nails painted.
In a tweet that flew under the radar, Chris also mentioned how he tried to come out as bisexual by the time he turned 16. However, Tyson received a lot of negative backlash from family and friends alike in return. Fortunately, the 26-year-old has always had supportive friends, for the most part.
How did the MrBeast crew react to Chris Tyson?
Unless one fills Tyson’s shoes, one will probably never know how the 26-year-old feels facing daily backlash for a decision so personal. Thankfully for Tyson, he has had a set of supportive friends by his side. MrBeast and his crew have had Tyson’s back throughout this whole time.
Nolan Hansen tweeted, “Holy smokes I’m proud of you! :)” To which Chris replied with, “Nolan please never change”

MrBeast himself came out when a troll seemingly tried to build a narrative that Tyson has only surrounded himself with yes-men. MrBeast, who goes by his real name of Jimmy Donaldson responded to the tweet with, “Opinion irrelevant. Ratio.”
Opinion irrelevant. Ratio

While Chandler hasn’t expressed any support through social media like the rest of the crew, he did appear alongside Chris in a recent MrBeast live stream. As per fans, Chandler seemed uncomfortable around Tyson post his appearance change.
For the most part, Chris seems to be in a good position, showered by constant love and support from the crew.
