Widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers in history, Cristiano Ronaldo has now embarked on a new chapter as a content creator. After dominating the football world for nearly two decades, Ronaldo launched his YouTube channel ‘UR Cristiano’. Within hours of that announcement, he set a new world record by becoming the fastest person to reach 1 million subscribers on the platform. Incredibly, within 24 hours, the number of subscribers rose to 10 million, breaking new records.
Ronaldo is already a social media powerhouse, with 112.5 million followers on X (formerly Twitter), 170 million on Facebook, and 636 million on Instagram. His conversion to YouTube is yet another testament to his popularity and huge impact on platforms.
"The wait is over. My @YouTube channel is finally here! Subscribe and join me on this new journey, "Subscribe and join me on this new journey," Ronaldo shared on Wednesday across his social media platforms, officially announcing the launch of his new venture.
Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated the launch of his new channel with a series of stunning videos. Includes a teaser trailer and a light-hearted interview with partner Georgina Rodriguez. The channel also featured a memorable moment where Ronaldo interacted with his wax figure at Madame Tussauds, adding a personal touch to the experience for fans.
Before hitting the 10 million mark on YouTube, Hamster Kombat held the record, and it took the channel 7 days to reach the milestone. Ronaldo's channel has surpassed 20 million subscribers and is growing at an unprecedented pace.
Currently playing for Al Nassar in Saudi Arabia, it wouldn’t be surprising if the veteran player continues to break more records on YouTube in the coming days.
