MrBeast is making his Super Bowl commercial dreams come true.
On Friday, Jan. 16, the YouTuber, 27, revealed in a video on YouTube that after exchanging a few public messages on X with the CEO of Salesforce, a software company, he got the green light to develop a Super Bowl commercial for them.
“So I got on a flight and just showed up at their headquarters,” MrBeast said in his video.
Back on Monday, Dec. 29, the internet personality shared in a post on X that he had been “sitting on an amazing Super Bowl commercial idea for years” — and that he was waiting for a brand to reach out and turn the idea into reality.
To his surprise, Marc Benioff, Salesforce’s CEO, replied two days later, writing, “Very seriously, Jimmy you should really do our Salesforce Super Bowl commercial for 2026! What’s the craziest thing you can dream up for the biggest stage on earth? I know we could do something great together!”
When MrBeast arrived to the Salesforce offices, he said in his video, he gave his “big pitch” — and the rest of the team “loved it.”
“Now I’m in charge of their Super Bowl commercial, and all I’m going to say is, this Super Bowl, if you see the commercial, you might become a millionaire,” he concluded his video. “This is going to be epic.”
This isn’t the first time that MrBeast — who is known by his staggering 460 million subscribers for his viral challenges, where he gives away millions of dollars in winnings — has been involved in advertisements for the Super Bowl. In 2023, the content creator partnered with the NFL to help surprise a producer with two tickets to see the big game — captured in an emotional clip shared to social media.
MrBeast’s latest venture comes after he sat down for a wide-ranging conversation with Josh Peck and Ben Soffer on their Dear Media’s Good Guys Podcast, where he openly discussed the potential of starting a family.

“I don’t want to have a kid unless I’m a phenomenal father,” said MrBeast, who is engaged to fellow gamer Thea Booysen.
“Kids make you more successful — I hate when people say that kind of stuff, because I agree, it’s a sacrifice when you’re actually a good father,” he continued. “Very few people that I meet that are successful and have kids end up regretting it. They’re almost always like, ‘Yeah, I’m less successful, but I don’t care.’ ”
