Content creator Jimmy Donaldson, known as MrBeast, donated $6.5 million to support the fight against pediatric cancer. The initiative was featured in their “I Helped 100 Kids Fight Cancer” video on YouTube.

In the video, MrBeast combined philanthropy with unique experiences for one hundred children who have overcome cancer. He brought together celebrities like LeBron James and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to fulfill his dreams.

The project was carried out in collaboration with hospitals and specialized foundations. “Memories are part of a comprehensive treatment,” said Dr. Alan Wayne.

The children enjoyed everything from ski rides and swimming with sharks to visits to the theater. Thirty of them went to Disney World in Florida, where they rode the attractions and met their favorite characters.

Other experiences included travel, shopping, meeting celebrities, visits to the Formula 1 paddock and the Blue Origin agency. Some children signed a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

Figures such as streamer IShowSpeed, KSI, the group Stray Kids, Sam and Colby, and Christina Tosi voluntarily participated. The minors visited sports team locker rooms, attended exclusive events and received personalized gifts.

Additionally, MrBeast organized a blood drive in Greenville, North Carolina, which will help save at least a thousand lives. The $6.5 million will be distributed among medical treatments, scientific research and support programs, with support from Amgen and the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.

The moment of the kiss

During one of her concerts in New York, Shakira had an unexpected moment with a fan. The Colombian singer approached the first rows of the stadium while she performed her collaboration “Music Sessions, vol. 53” with BZRP, as part of her “Women no longer cry World Tour.”

A young woman, excited to have the artist so close, kissed her on the cheek. However, the push of other fans who also wanted to interact with Shakira caused the follower to lose her balance. His lips slid across the face of the “Pies descalzos” singer.

The singer instinctively turned her face away, but showed no discomfort. Seeing the young woman, he smiled at her and squeezed her hand before leaving. The video of the meeting spread quickly on social networks.

Divided reactions

In the comments, some users considered the fan’s reaction normal and assured that they would do the same. Others, however, expressed displeasure and pointed out that followers should respect the artists’ personal space.

Shakira gave three concerts in New York and one more in New Jersey after her participation in the World Cup final. The show’s itinerary follows the same structure throughout the tour.

A new king for Wakanda

Marvel Studios closed its panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2026 with an expected announcement. Ryan Coogler took the stage to confirm that David Jonsson will play T’Challa II, the son of King T’Challa, in Black Panther II. The film will hit theaters on December 15, 2028.

The news surprised followers. Rumors circulated for months about who would inherit Wakanda’s legacy, but few were betting on the 32-year-old British actor. In recent years, Jonsson has become one of the promises of Hollywood.

“The honor is completely mine,” said the actor on stage, visibly moved, after thanking Ryan Coogler and Kevin Feige.

Who is David Jonsson?

He was born in London and started in theater before making the leap to British television. His big break came with the series Industry (HBO), where he played Gus Sackey. Since then he has built an ascending career in science fiction, drama and horror.
