According to my 8 year old, the two most famous people on the planet are Taylor Swift and Mr. Beast.
Mr. Beast came out of absolutely nowhere after he pulled stunts like saying a name 10,000 times or something over 24 hours, I forget, it was something whacky and dumb. His early "stunts" were weird challenges that weren't very interesting but the algorithm propped him up, big time.
I have never gone through his early content and actually tried to find where he blew up, but the guy became a massive star seemingly overnight. But quickly you can see that the production values behind his content were absolutely incredible, like he went from a nobody to having the ability to setup and do nearly anything, it just seemed a bit odd the idea that just some random dude could blow up so big, so quickly, and then seemingly achieve so much in such a short time without help from veterans at PR and staging stunts and events.
