Percentage of MrBeast fans who are minors
Executive summary
Public reporting does not provide a definitive percentage of MrBeast’s fans who are minors; available audience snapshots consistently show a very young fanbase—largely under 30 and with many under 25—but none of the supplied analytics or press pieces give a clear share under 18, so any exact “percentage of minors” cannot be established from the current sources [1] [2] [3].
1. What the sources actually say about age composition
Multiple analytics and media pieces converge on the basic fact that MrBeast’s audience skews young: Views4You states that “most of his audience are people under 25” [1], a local feature cites an 18–30 core audience [2], and industry commentary for his Prime Video deal describes an audience “overwhelmingly under 30, and skewing younger by the year” [3]; these are consistent signals that a substantial majority of his viewers fall below 30 years old, but none of these items report a specific proportion who are under 18 [1] [2] [3].
2. What the analytics firms provide — and what they don’t
Commercial analytics pages (HypeAuditor, NoxInfluencer, ThoughtLeaders, SocialBlade and similar) offer subscriber totals, engagement metrics, geographic traffic and age-band summaries in some paid reports—HypeAuditor lists total subscribers and engagement rates and promises deeper audience breakdowns in premium reports [4] [5] [6]—but the publicly available snippets in the supplied material either summarize “under‑25” or “under‑30” trends or push users to pay for detailed demographic slices, which explains why no precise minor‑percentage appears in the open reporting [4] [5] [6].
3. Signals from media and market observers about commercial value
Industry commentary underscores why the youth tilt is emphasized: Parrot Analytics and Coffee Intelligence argue MrBeast’s youthful audience makes him attractive to platforms and brands seeking Gen Z and Gen Alpha eyeballs, noting Amazon and Starbucks partnerships aim to reach those younger cohorts [7] [3]. That commercial focus creates an incentive for marketers and trade press to highlight the “under‑30” story, which can amplify impressions of a largely minor audience even when precise under‑18 data are missing [7] [3].
4. Why an exact “percentage of minors” is not in the available reporting
None of the supplied sources supply a public breakdown that isolates under‑18 viewers as a share of total fans; the most specific public claims are age bands like “under 25,” “18–30,” or “under 30” [1] [2] [3]. Platform-level age data that would answer the question—YouTube/Instagram native analytics or representative surveys of viewers—are either behind paywalls in third‑party services [4] [6] or not published in the referenced press coverage, so the supplied reporting cannot support a precise numeric percentage of fans who are minors [4] [6].
5. Reasonable interpretation and next steps for a precise figure
The defensible interpretation from the available material is that a large share of MrBeast’s fanbase is young—most viewers are under 30 and many under 25—so minors (under 18) likely constitute a meaningful slice of his audience, but the exact percentage is not reported in these sources [1] [2] [3]. To obtain a precise percentage, one would need either anonymized age-band exports from platform analytics (YouTube/Google), a representative third‑party survey, or the premium reports sold by analytics firms cited here [4] [6]; absent that, any numeric claim would be speculative beyond the qualitative consensus in the supplied reporting.
