Following grooming allegations made against Ava Kris Tyson, fellow content creator Ninja has revealed that he's never deliberately alone in the same room as a woman.
Last month, a video was shared on YouTube that accused MrBeast co-host Ava Kris Tyson of grooming.
The video claimed that over several years, Tyson had been involved in a number of inappropriate conversations with an underage fan.
Posts shared on social media also came to light.

The YouTuber has since taken to X (formerly Twitter) to apologize for 'any of [her] past behavior or comments if it hurt of offended anyone,' but insists that she 'never groomed anyone.'
She also shared that she'd be leaving her role at MrBeast's channel, stating she needed to 'focus on [her] family and mental health.'
A number of other creators have spoken out since the allegations against Tyson were made.
One is Twitch streamer Tyler 'Ninja' Blevins who discussed the situation during a livestream on Tuesday (July 23).
Blevins said: "It’s f***ing simple. I don’t care who you are, I don’t care what you are, I don’t care what community you’re part of. Don’t talk to anyone underage. "Hello? It’s not difficult. Just don’t do it. What year is it? How hard is it?"
He said the best way to not end up in situations like this is to just not DM anyone, also sharing that he's never alone in a room with a woman.
"Even my PR person, it doesn’t matter who it is. I don’t care if they work with me, whatever. There is someone else in that room at all times. If we’re alone, I leave. Instantly."
The streamer continued: "As for anyone else, I don’t DM anyone. I DM my boys. I DM guys in the community. There’s no private messages going on with any girls. If there are, it’s someone like Chica or people in this space. And then I let my wife know.
"If I don’t know you, I’m not DMing you. I don’t wanna get to know you and find out you’re only seven," he joked.
MrBeast has also addressed the 'serious allegations' made against his former co-host.
In a post on X, he wrote: "Over the last few days, I’ve become aware of the serious allegations of Ava Tyson's behavior online and I am disgusted and opposed to such unacceptable acts.
"During that time, I have been focused on hiring an independent third party to conduct a thorough investigation to ensure I have all the facts.
"That said, I’ve seen enough online and taken immediate action to remove Ava from the company, my channel, and any association with MrBeast. I do not condone or support any of the inappropriate actions."
