LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: As part of an ad-revenue sharing program, Elon Musk’s Twitter has distributed millions to high-profile Twitter influencers, including the controversial misogynistic influencer Andrew Tate also known as the 'Top G.' The organization has announced that eligible creators will start receiving a share of ad revenue through the comments section of their posts.
Many of the influencers who have publicly disclosed their participation in the program are well-known individuals. For example, Andrew Tate, a controversial figure, shared on Twitter the amount he received as payment after his involvement.
How much did Twitter pay Andrew Tate for content contribution?
In a tweet, Tate confirmed that the platform had started compensating him for his content and pledged to donate all of his Twitter earnings to charitable causes. According to the tweet, Tate has received $20,378 as his share of the ad revenue. Due to his divisive and misogynistic remarks, Andrew Tate has been banned from multiple social media platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. Twitter remains one of the few sites where the former kickboxer still maintains an active presence.

During an interview with Valuetainment media, the former ISKA kickboxing world champion praised Musk, referring to him as a man of genuine purpose. He said, "Man, I love Elon, and I love that he is a man of purpose, and I have soo much respect for a man of purpose. Most people who got his kind of a paycheck... in the 90s would have cashed out... He decided to risk it all again to try to achieve the most impossible things."
