eee... no? When you talk about "multinational phenomenon" I really thought of something more like Friends sitcom, which is really known everywhere, not just in English speaking world.

The context of the article being in English has to matter here.

I don't know how German works, I wouldn't expect Mr Beast to change how German kids speak.

Not sure about Germany, but I think France has a government organization specifically tasked with keeping French French. Local businesses are encouraged to use French words in naming and advertising.
