You all may know Kris Tyson as Mr. Beast’s best friend and a fellow YouTuber. She has more than 2.5 million followers, and recently she made a big announcement on her podcast with Anthony Padilla called “Spent a Day.“. Kris Tyson bravely embraced her authentic self, undergoing self-discovery and updating her name and pronouns on Twitter with pride.

Kris, who previously went by the name Chris and identified as a man, has now transitioned her gender and is identifying as a woman. As a close friend of MrBeast and a public figure in her own right, Kris’s decision to share her journey openly inspires and empowers others to be true to themselves. She has thus changed her gender to she/her in her Twitter bio. Let’s take a look at this beautiful journey.

Kris expressed herself publicly for the first time in the podcast with Anthony Padilla and shared her inspiring journey of finding her real self. She told the viewers how all her life she had felt disconnected from the real world, just as she felt disconnected from her real self. 

It was only in April 2023 that she announced on Twitter that she had been undergoing HRT, or hormone replacement therapy, for the last two months when a user questioned the change in her appearance. For example, transgender women (assigned male at birth but identifying as female) may undergo HRT to introduce female hormones, such as estrogen, into their bodies to promote feminization.

In taking this bold step, Kris exemplifies the strength it takes to embrace one’s authentic self, even in the face of societal norms and expectations. MrBeast and her friends also hit back at a user who posted a video of how the transition with Kris will affect him by saying that Kris is her friend and things are fine between them, and the transphobia from people directed at Kris is pissing him off.

People’s reaction to the change

It has been a hard couple of months for Kris as she has been brutally trolled for her actions in coming out as transgender. People mercilessly trolled her and verbally abused her. But she never backed down from her decision and went through with it to come out as a new and better person. 

This is one of the best examples of mental strength and will give much-needed inspiration to people afraid of taking this step. Many people have since come out in support of her and have showered her with love and strength for being as strong as she has been. Sharing a wide spectrum of reactions, here are some of the tweets:

Let us join together in celebrating Kris Tyson’s new chapter and honoring her choice to live life authentically as the incredible woman she is. May her story serve as a beacon of hope and acceptance, spreading the message of love and inclusivity to all who follow her journey. Congratulations to Kris Tyson on this beautiful transformation.
