MrBeast has given a savage clap back for Beast Games' low Rotten Tomatoes score.

The YouTuber premiered his first game show on Amazon Prime recently and while it came with a record breaking budget, critics were tough to impress.

MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, is well known for his over-the-top videos involving competitions with huge cash sums.

The popular clips has earned him the title of most-subscribed to YouTube channel with over 366 million followers.

Beast Games reportedly had a whopping $100 million budget, with the grand prize of the show being $10 million.

However, the game show hasn’t been met favorably by critics after it received a very low score of 13% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Appearing on an episode of Dexerto’s Clickbaited show, Donaldson shared his thoughts on the score.

He said: “The critics score is based off of eight critics, so when people reference the critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, you’re literally just referencing eight people.

“Whereas, when you look at our Popcorn score, which is probably over 10,000 reviews, it’s 90%, 9/10.”

Defending his show, Donaldson went on to say: “Most of the reviews came in right when the show dropped, so I don’t think they watched the show, and just rated it one star.”

Although, the YouTuber did admit that Beast Games might not be for everyone.

He continued: “Not everyone is going to like the show. If someone objectively watches all ten episodes and they say it’s terrible, then that’s their opinion, and all I would ask is like, ‘hey, can you tell me why, and I’ll work to improve it in the future.’

“At the end of the day, I’m making the show to entertain the audience, not eight random critics.”

Donaldson previously appeared in a recent episode of The Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett where the YouTuber was open about his low bank balance.

When Bartlett asked if he was a billionaire, Donaldson replied: “On paper, yeah, but I mean, in my actual bank account, I have less than a million dollars.”

And the content creator went on to explain the reason for this, sharing that he invests a lot of his income back into his brand and he only pays himself enough money to live on each month.

Bartlett asked Donaldson if he pays himself to which the YouTuber responded with: “A little bit but I have some assistants and things like that so I try to pay myself what I spend personally a month just to stay even.

“Money is fuel to grow a business.”
