Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo launched a YouTube channel on August 21. He announced this in X.
At the time of the tweet, there was one video on his channel, which is simply a trailer for the channel. But the footballer’s popularity has done its job.
Ronaldo Reaches First Million Subscribers in 1 Hour 29 MinutesThis is a record for the entire existence of the platform.
In 12 hours, 10 million people signed up.. No blogger has ever achieved this before.
In just 24 hours, the channel has gained 20 million subscribers. And this is the third record.
For comparison, MrBeast’s channel gained a maximum of 2.1 million subscribers in one day.
Because Ronaldo had gained so many subscribers in such a short period of time, YouTube gave him a gold button that same day, which attracts users with more than a million subscribers.
Ronaldo’s channel currently has 33 million subscribers and the number continues to grow. In two days, the footballer has posted 12 videos. He let the channel be run and posted videos about himself and his family. [Newsweek]
