  • It’s a celebration: PewDiePie’s “”Congratulations”” song overtakes Post Malone – Dexerto

    It’s a celebration: PewDiePie’s “”Congratulations”” song overtakes Post Malone Felix ‘PewDiePie‘ Kjellberg’s “Congratulations” music video now has more likes than Post Malone‘s “Congratulations”, despite only being out for under a month. After a prolonged battle with India-based music label and production company T-Series, it looked like all hope was lost for PewDiePie after he looked like he was passed for good. This led him to release a song that ‘congratulated’ T-Series, while also throwing all sorts of shade at the same time. Somehow, this video helped PewDiePie not only reclaim the most subscriptions on YouTube, but also take back the top spot by a huge margin. PewDiePie’s “Congratulations” has proven to be such the hit that it has already surpassed rapper Post Malone’s song “Congratulations”, in ‘likes’ on YouTube. While this is an impressive feat, it’s made even more so by the fact that it has been available for a much shorter time than Post Malone’s version. Post Malone’s “Congratulations” has over 1 billion views on YouTube and is sitting at 5.5 million likes since its release on Jan 23, 2017. On the other hand, we have PewDiePie’s “Congratulations“, released on March 31, 2019, and has over 71 million views but comes in with 5.7 million, topping Post Malone. Obviously, you can’t really judge the quality of a song based on just the amount of likes it has on YouTube but this does prove PewDiePie reaches a large audience and you can never really count him out in the fight against T-Series. Fans love PewDiePie’s “Congratulations” – T-Series doesn’t On April 10 T-Series allegedly looked to file a court order to remove both “Bitch Lasagna” and “Congratulations” from YouTube. While people might look at PewDiePie’s song as some good, clean fun there are numerous allegations he throws out towards T-Series which is likely what the court order stems from. In “Congratulations” Pewds suggests the Indian music label got its start by using pirated songs and even mentioned T-Series CEO Bhushan Kumar’s sexual harassment allegations.

  • It’s Always Sunny’s Rob McElhenney has joined TikTok and it’s just incredible – Dexerto

    It’s Always Sunny’s Rob McElhenney has joined TikTok and it’s just incredible Instagram: @robmcelhenneyRob McElhenney, who plays Ronald ‘Mac’ McDonald in the hit comedy series It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, has turned the TikTok world upside down with his hilarious posts since joining the platform. Rob McElhenney hasn’t been on TikTok for long. He joined in June 2021 and has only posted nine videos since then. But he’s already amassed more than 600k followers and 3 million likes and left countless people in stitches in that time. His first post, which involved self-deprecating humor about him being a middle-aged man on TikTok, has been played more than 3 million times. But that was nothing compared to subsequent posts that have pulled numbers between 5 million and 8 million views. It’s no surprise, given his popularity on the show. However, the quality and hilarity of his content is the biggest factor. For example, his most viral video has a caption that says, ‘When you live in Hollywood, but they forget you’re from Philly.’ It starts with him bopping his head to a hip-hop beat and mime rapping, only to take a hilarious turn when his cat jumps on the kitchen counter. From there, his wife proceeds to call him out for making a TikTok video telling people that he’s from the hood and mocked him for going to a private school, and it ends with him begging her to be “more supportive” before trying it again “one more time.” There’s plenty of other amazing clips, too. His collaboration with Game of Thrones star Kit Harrington that showed the actor shaking his head while seeing his face on a slot machine at a casino in Las Vegas was also a smash hit. It’s the kind of content and humor that fans of the show hoped to see, and so far, he’s exceeded their expectations as TikTok’s new golden god.

  • Italian IRL streamer banned from Twitch after fans harass Cat Cafe – Dexerto

    Italian IRL streamer banned from Twitch after fans harass Cat Cafe Pexels.com: Lina Kivaka / YouTube: GF di twitch, ilGabbrone: TwitchAn Italian IRL streamer has been banned from Twitch after exhibiting unruly behavior in a Milan-based cat café, prompting his fanbase to harass the business with negative reviews. IRL streams are often the cream of the crop of Twitch’s broadcasting content. There’s no telling what sort of hilarious and random shenanigans streamers will get themselves into while traveling abroad… but not every IRL stream is a positive one. In the case of Italian streamer ‘ilGabbrone,’ the outcome was decidedly negative. In mid-June, Gabbrone visited a cat café — a coffee or tea shop whose main draw is its feline staff (which, in many cases, are up for adoption) — but instead of a purr-worthy relaxing experience, a veritable ‘catastrophe’ happened instead. As evidenced by a YouTube upload of the broadcast (and a translation from a commenter), a staff member can be seen asking Gabbrone to behave properly while streaming, lest he be removed from the establishment. ❌ Twitch Partner “”ilGabbrone”” has been banned! ❌https://t.co/L7WMvtivSd#twitch #ban #thirdban #partner #twitchpartner 👕 — StreamerBans (@StreamerBans) June 21, 2021 Shortly afterwards, the streamer’s fans donated to the broadcast, triggering some unpleasant and rude sounds (such as a fart noise and other unpleasant effects) out of his speaker in the otherwise library-quiet venue. Gabbrone himself was also speaking loudly during his time at the café… resulting in one customer purportedly berating him for his behavior, as well as the fact that he was not wearing a mask while indoors. Seemingly as a result of this interaction, Garbbrone’s fanbase began calling the cafe’s phone line en masse to complain, which viewers can hear during the end of the YouTube re-upload of the stream. It wasn’t long before Gabbrone was asked to leave — but that wasn’t the only consequence of the IRL stream. The Italian-based broadcaster was banned from Twitch on June 21 in wake of the café catastrophe, prompting satisfaction from critics across social media. The cat café has also posted about the situation via their Instagram profile, claiming that Gabbrone’s fans purportedly review-bombed the establishment with a slew of negative comments. “Hitting in this way a small reality already brought to its knees (like many others) by the pandemic cannot be considered goliardic, but cruel,” the café wrote. View this post on Instagram Gabbrone allegedly claimed in a separate stream after the situation went down that he was not at fault, but instead, some “bad apples” in his chat were to blame for the harassment of the café. While this is far from the first time an IRL streamer has caused havoc at a business — who can forget the time someone called in a bomb threat at an airport Ice Poseidon was streaming from? — and it’s unclear if this was the exact reason for Gabbrone’s ban, it’s hopeful that Twitch is setting out a clear rule for such behavior with this latest suspension.

  • Italy invites Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg to fight in the Colosseum in Rome – Dexerto

    Italy invites Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg to fight in the Colosseum in Rome David Kohler/Unsplash, Anthony Quintano/Wikimedia, Debbie Rowe/WikiMediaA modern-day gladiator fight could take place at Rome’s Colosseum between tech bosses Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg as Italy invites the two billionaires to fight in the historic landmark. The internet went wild after Elon Musk challenged Mark Zuckerberg to a fight on June 20. Zuckerberg soon replied to the invite by asking for a date, which made the whole world try to make the event happen. The Italian government has now shocked everyone by inviting the two billionaires to have their fight at the 2000-year-old Colosseum in Rome, TMZ Sports reported. The Minister of Culture, Gennaro Sangiuliano, is said to have reached out to Musk and Zuckerberg about staging the head-to-head at the landmark, which is one of the seven wonders of the world. Musk and Zuckerberg are both hoping to fight in the Colosseum Both of the eager fighters were excited about the idea. They reportedly passed on the message to Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White, whose people contacted the Italian Minister. The Colosseum has not hosted a big event, let alone a fight, in hundreds of years, and only a few hundred spectators can be seated in temporary seating within the theater. While Italian media reports that the government has denied offering up the venue, Musk has added to the speculation this morning, tweeting: “Some chance fight happens in Colosseum”. Musk continued to up the hype around the fight, quoting Russell Crowe’s character in the cult film Gladiator, General Maximus. The character famously tells his troops before battle: “What we do in life, echoes in eternity”. If that location does indeed turn out to be the Colosseum, it would be the first time in hundreds of years that a fight has been staged at the historic arena. In its heyday, the 50,000-capacity stadium regularly saw fights to the death between gladiators. But now its ruins could only host a few hundred people and it now mainly holds concerts instead of battles.

  • It Costs Over £500 ($650) for VIP Inner-Ringside Tickets for KSI vs Logan Paul Boxing Match – Dexerto

    It Costs Over £500 ($650) for VIP Inner-Ringside Tickets for KSI vs Logan Paul Boxing Match Ticket prices for the KSI vs Logan Paul YouTube boxing match, especially the VIP experience, can get ridiculously high if you go for the full package. The much anticipated YouTube boxing match between KSI and Logan Paul, as well as younger brothers ComedyShortsGamer and Jake Paul, is expected to be a sellout event when it comes to Manchester August. Tickets went on sale shortly after the first official press conference, which took place in LA, and some of the prices are eye-watering, for the most dedicated of KSI or Logan fans. Basic tickets are pretty reasonable by comparison, with the cheapest starting at £34.70. There are also others in the range of £50 – £150, with the upper end of these securing floor seats close to the ring.

This VIP ticket may be expensive, but it is not simply a ticket for the fight itself, as the description suggests it is a week long experience, with behind the scenes access to the fighter’s workouts as well as meeting the YouTube stars themselves. VIP Ticket (£495 + £20 BF + £1.20 FF) includes: Exclusive VIP Access to Public Workout during fight week, including Meet & Greet with Fighters.

See you guys there https://t.co/Q3usn6kDJP pic.twitter.com/OoVE0z1rxa — KSI (@KSIOlajidebt) June 24, 2018 The fight is expected to sell out given the success of the last YouTube boxing match between KSI and Joe Weller and the increased attraction of the Paul brothers. Combined, the four YouTubers have over 60 million subscribers, and as the Paul’s are from the US it is a truly international affair, with the most passionate of their fans perhaps even travelling over to the UK for the big fight. The fight takes place on August 25th 2018, and there are still tickets available in most sections but they will undoubtedly go fast. Another press conference is also expected, likely to be held in the UK this time closer to the fight to build up the hype some more.

  • Italian authority says TikTok’s ‘personalized ads’ change could target children – Dexerto

    Italian authority says TikTok’s ‘personalized ads’ change could target children TikTokItalian authorities have responded to TikTok’s next batch of proposed changes coming into effect on July 13, urging them to reconsider their approach to personalized adverts. The Italian SA has sent a clear message to the developers of the popular video-sharing application, warning them that “explicit consent” would be needed for the tweak to be in line with European Union law. These changes will affect users across the EU, United Kingdom, and Switzerland. TikTok to change personalized ads on July 13 An explainer article on their website says: “TikTok is making a legal change to how it will use your on-TikTok activity to personalize your ads… “Historically, TikTok asked you for your “consent” to use your on-TikTok activity and off-TikTok activity to serve you personalized ads. From 13 July 2022 TikTok will rely on its “legitimate interests” as its legal basis to use on-TikTok activity to personalize the ads of users who are 18 or over.” TikTok has been notifying users over the age of 18 about upcoming changes to the privacy policy, though the legality of the decision is under question. Italy responds to TikTok privacy changes In an official statement, the Italian authority said: “In addition to the inadequate legal basis, an issue was of special concern to the Italian SA as related to the protection of child users that are registered with the platform. “According to the Italian SA, the difficulties currently encountered by TikTok in order to establish compliance with the age requirements to access the platform do not allow ruling out the risk that ‘personalized’ ads including unsuitable content will be served to very young users based on the company’s legitimate interest.” The statement was posted to the GPDP website – the Italian Data Protection Authority. It also said: “Therefore, the Italian SA relied on the powers conferred on it by the GDPR and sent a formal ‘warning’ to TikTok that processing data on the basis of its ‘legitimate interest’ would be in conflict with the current regulatory framework, at least with regard to the information stored in users’ devices, and would entail all the relevant consequences also in terms of corrective measures and fines.” Previously, TikTok had assured those under 18 years old that the changes will not affect them – though they can give their consent for personalized ads. When they do eventually turn 18, a number of other effects will kick into gear. As seen above, these will depend on whether the user has previously given consent to use their activity to serve personalized ads. Whether this warning from Italy’s authorities will have any effect on the implementation of TikTok’s proposed changes, or its timeline for rollout, remains to be seen.

  • Island Boys stunned after murder suspect arrested at their home – Dexerto

    Island Boys stunned after murder suspect arrested at their home Instagram: flyysouljaRap duo the Island Boys have given a statement after a suspect was arrested on first-degree murder charges at their Florida home. On February 8, 2022, it was reported that the Island Boy’s home in Coral Springs, Florida had been raided by the authorities. The rappers themselves were not arrested, but one of their childhood friends left the scene in handcuffs. Authorities arrested one Andrew James Thomas on charges of first degree murder in a fatal drive-by shooting of an 8-year-old girl. Thomas was also booked on charges of “gun possession and violation of probation” for an unrelated robbery case, as per TMZ. The Island Boys’ manager, Dovi Bezner, spoke to the media regarding the situation, claiming that the rappers were unaware Thomas was a suspect in the shooting. According to Bezner, the Island Boys “just knew him as a quiet kid.” “He would come and hang out and do his thing and go back to whatever he got going on, but we had no clue about any of these allegations toward him,” Bezner said. “We just knew him as a good person, someone who grew up with the Island Boys.” “If we knew something like this was going on, we would have never allowed him on the property.” The Island Boys also told investigative reporter Terri Parker that Thomas had allegedly shown up at their home a few days prior to the arrest and “crashed on their couch.” According to police, Island Boy Alex Venegas had claimed that Thomas was running toward him down a hallway with a handgun when the SWAT team arrived. Venegas stated that Thomas had asked him to hide the weapon, but Venegas purportedly refused. Alex then claimed that he witnessed Thomas run into their laundry room and leave without the gun. Authorities claim they discovered the gun inside of a closet in the laundry room. According to WPBF 25 News, Thomas is currently facing charges of “first degree murder with a firearm, attempted first-degree murder with a firearm, and being a felon in possession of a firearm.” Terri Parker also spoke with Alex Venegas regarding the matter, who reportedly claimed that he “couldn’t believe it happened and actually cried when he realized how serious this all was.”

  • Island Boys thought ‘I’m An Island Boy’ was “trash” before it went viral on TikTok – Dexerto

    Island Boys thought ‘I’m An Island Boy’ was “trash” before it went viral on TikTok YouTube: Steve-O’s Wild Ride! – PodcastRap duo the Island Boys went viral last year due to their divisive track of the same name — but despite how famous they’ve become because of it, they didn’t initially think the song was up to snuff. The Island Boys took over headlines left and right in late 2021. Their song ‘I’m An Island Boy’ went viral on TikTok, and subsequently on YouTube, with folks all over the net belting out the tune’s catchy lyrics. Of course, the rappers incurred quite a bit of criticism as a result — most notably from rap legend Snoop Dogg and comedian Kevin Hart, who dubbed the pair as “two goofballs in a pool.” They’ve incurred a few beefs with top-tier influencers along the way, as well, including Logan Paul and TikTok star Bryce Hall (who’s still trying to negotiate a 2 vs 1 fight with the duo). Now, the Island Boys are a household name… but they didn’t expect to blow up because of a song that left many on the internet scratching their heads. The pair opened up on their sudden musical success during an episode of Steve-O’s Wild Ride! Podcast on April 7, where they admitted they felt the song was actually “trash” in the beginning. Island Boys admit they thought viral song was “trash” “Okay, we didn’t think it was gonna blow up like that,” one of the rappers said. “We dropped five freestyles on TikTok. We thought the Spanish song was gonna blow up, but the Island Boy did. I thought it was trash at first.” “I laughed at it!” the other revealed. “He told me, ‘Bro, just listen to me. Just go with the Island Boy thing, right?’” he continued. “And I’m like, I’m gonna laugh at him. I’m gonna respect him, he’s my twin brother and we work together, right?” “Swear to god, he said it was gonna go viral. And it did go viral.” (Topic begins at 6:00) Despite their initial reservations about the song, it certainly put the two on the map in a big way. For now, it looks like the rappers will continue to focus on their musical careers as fight negotiations continue to falter for their possible first-ever boxing match.

  • Island Boys storm off Impaulsive podcast after hostile confrontation with George Janko – Dexerto

    Island Boys storm off Impaulsive podcast after hostile confrontation with George Janko Logan Paul/Island BoysSocial media stars the Island Boys stormed off the set of the Impaulsive podcast after a tense confrontation with Logan Paul and co-host George Janko. The Island Boys rose to prominence in 2021 through TikTok, kicking off a burgeoning rap career and pretty much becoming an internet sensation. Flyysoulja and Kodiyakredd were all set to appear on the Impaulsive Podcast, when something happened to make them storm off the set. Island Boys tense Logan Paul confrontation View this post on Instagram A video posted to the official Impaulsive Instagram showed the pair facing off with Paul and Janko right in the middle of filming, with the cameras still rolling. After Janko and the pair went at it for awhile, Logan stepped in and the video cut off, but according to the post the two did walk off the podcast entirely. Just looking at the video, and the reaction of the hosts, it wasn’t clear what set the duo off, but something certainly seemed to have rubbed them the wrong way. Full Impaulsive episode reveals reason for Island Boys confrontation The full podcast episode was uploaded to YouTube a day later, showing the entire altercation that led up to the Island Boys walking off set. The issue began after George Janko offered some advice to the pair of viral music artists, suggesting that they could fall back on their expensive jewelry collection if their rap careers ever went South. This seemed to upset the pair, who took issue with George’s comment. One of the Boys said, “I don’t need financial advice when I probably make more money than you. Why don’t you go talk to somebody else about that?” The conversation got heated, with George claiming he was being “threatened” by the Island Boys after he gave them “nice advice.” (Topic begins at 25:45) The two then walked off set, leading to the tense altercation recorded in the viral clip. Logan Paul stepped in when things escalated, effectively ending the argument and going on with the show. Thus far, commenters seem to be fairly amused by the whole thing… with some even hinting at a possible boxing match between Janko and the Island Boys. Now that’s a fight fans wouldn’t want to miss.

  • Island Boys scream threats at Bryce Hall as 2v1 fight talks heat up – Dexerto

    Island Boys scream threats at Bryce Hall as 2v1 fight talks heat up YouTube: BryceHall, The Island Boys / Instagram: flyysoulja, brycehallThe Island Boys are once again beefing with TikTok star Bryce Hall as he continues to attempt negotiations for a 2v1 boxing match against the rap duo. The beef between Bryce Hall and the Island Boys spans back to late 2021, when the rappers first appeared on an episode of YouTuber Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast. The tatted pair notably walked off set after beefing with podcast co-host George Janko, who advised the duo to sell their jewelry if the music game didn’t work in their favor. They seemed to take this as a disrespectful jab at their talents and split. Bryce Hall notably chimed in on the situation a short while later, mocking the rappers for their infamous line toward Janko: “You know I’m thugging, right?” This set off a heated feud between the three stars, who hit back and forth in a series of TikToks and even appeared together in an interview on Drama Alert (which the Island Boys walked out of). Now, months later, things are heating up between this trio once again… but it doesn’t look like Hall’s proposed fight is getting off the ground anytime soon. Hall met up with the rappers on Instagram Live on March 30, 2022 to discuss negotiations. He shared text conversations with the duo on his Stories, showing that one of the rappers had actually asked him to go live to air out their terms in front of the world. Unfortunately, things didn’t get ironed out. Instead, the conversation quickly devolved into an insult-slinging competition, with the Island Boys notably calling Hall a homophobic slur before tossing around threats toward the Sway House co-founder. Hall similarly brought up claims of abuse against KodiyakRedd as fodder in the shouting match. “I’ll beat the f**k out of you!” the rappers shouted. “Bro, you’re the biggest clout chaser in the world.” For now, it doesn’t look like a match has been set for these three — but a 2v1 match certainly sounds like something fit for the WWE, where Logan Paul has been testing his mettle as of late in between boxing matches.

Despite their fame, the two also incurred quite a bit of criticism, notably getting booed at their very first live performance and even finding themselves the target of thrown drinks at Jake Paul’s boxing rematch against Tyron Woodley. Apart from their theme song, another feature that makes the rappers stand out is their appearance — most notably, their myriad of facial tattoos and their unique blonde hairstyle. In fact, YouTube star Logan Paul asked the duo how they managed to style their hair in such a way, which they said was by using a crocheting hook.

  • Island Boys roasted after U.S. Army recruitment TikTok goes viral – Dexerto

    Island Boys roasted after U.S. Army recruitment TikTok goes viral The Island Boys are once again being used as the internet’s punching bag after an army recruiter posted a Cameo video of the twins promoting the U.S. Military. Since their viral off-the-cuff hot tub TikTok, the Island Boys have stayed in the internet’s spotlight. Or more accurately, they’ve been in its crosshairs. What started as a potential music career quickly devolved into constant feuds with other e-celebs. The brothers have gone from being booed off stage at their first show to starting beef with both Paul brothers. Even massive stars like Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart have roasted the two “goofballs.” Now, members of the U.S. Military are taking a stab at the brothers thanks to a new recruitment video. The video was purchased on Cameo and posted on TikTok via texasrecruiter. Island Boys roasted for Army recruitment video The video was posted to TikTok on January 21 and has only garnered 45.9k views. However, the video wasn’t posted to either of the Island Boys’ accounts. It was a Cameo purchased by an Army recruiter and TikToker texasrecruiter. The post was then shared on the r/army subreddit where both the brothers and the recruiter were roasted. Some comments made fun of the Island Boys’ claims such as “paid vacation.” One comment stated, “The worst vacation I ever went on. There wasn’t even any good creole.” Various comments jabbed at texasrecruiter for spending money on the Cameo. They read, “Are we really hurting to fill [military positions] that bad?” or “Unbelievable. Didn’t think things were this rough.” According to Cameo, their personal video requests cost around $180. Despite it being posted on texasrecruiter’s TikTok, a representative for US Army Recruitment Command stated that the video was not sanctioned by the Army. This isn’t the first time the U.S. Military has made headlines for attempting to reach a younger audience online. In 2020, the U.S. Army Esports team was reportedly recruiting underage viewers on Twitch by holding fake giveaways.

    Island Boys say their mom “doesn’t care” they make out on OnlyFans Instagram: kodiyakreddFlyysouljah from the Island Boys claims that his mother “doesn’t care” that he makes out with his twin brother for OnlyFans content — but the internet isn’t convinced this is true. Rap duo and twin brothers the Island Boys first rose to fame in 2021, thanks to their viral song of the same name. The two quickly took the net by storm thanks to the earworm track and their unique sense of style — but not for positive reasons, as the duo were booed at their very first concert and even got publicly roasted by the likes of Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart. Over the following year, the rappers fell out of the public consciousness… but earlier in 2023, they shocked social media yet again after revealing they were creating OnlyFans content together. The brothers were instantly slammed over this revelation, with many critics calling the content “incestuous.” This was followed by Flyysouljah coming out as gay some time later. Flyysouljah says mom “doesn’t care” about OnlyFans content with brother Now, he’s responded to concerns from fans regarding how his mother feels about his content with his bro… but he says she’s all for it, as he’s able to provide for her thanks to the money he’s earned from his ventures. “My mom doesn’t care,” the rapper answered in a TikTok video uploaded on September 1. “My mom is proud of me, that I’m successful. I get to take very good care of her. I’m about to give her $10,000 to go invest in her own business.” “So, she’s proud of me. I bought her an apartment, a car. She doesn’t really care what I do or my personal life, to be honest with you.” However, commenters weren’t convinced that he was being truthful, with one user writing: “His mum definitely doesn’t know, cuz if she does, that’s WILD.” “Blud don’t even talk to his mom anymore,” another speculated. “That’s crazy she doesn’t care about her sons making out on the internet, as long as they give her money!” yet another wrote. “People would rather have money than morals!” This is just the latest news to come from the Island Boys after the duo “destroyed” YouTuber Jack Doherty’s house during a live stream on Kick.

  • Island Boys rage quit another interview as Bryce Hall beef reaches fever pitch – Dexerto

    Island Boys rage quit another interview as Bryce Hall beef reaches fever pitch YouTube: DramaAlertThe Island Boys haven’t shied away from beef with influencers since their huge come-up on TikTok, and now things have only escalated amid their rumored boxing fight with TikTok star Bryce Hall. The Island Boys’ beef with Bryce is an ongoing one, regularly going at each other on TikTok, so much so that Bryce has offered to fight either one of them in his next boxing match. Bryce had been clowning the divisive rap duo over their “thuggin’” comments on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, which they stormed out of after a disagreement with co-host George Janko. Now, they’ve stormed out of another interview, this time when KEEMSTAR brought together them and Bryce. In the DramaAlert interview, which was intended to bring the two parties together to organize their face-off in the ring, but it descended into chaos. Throughout the interview, all three of those involved were constantly mocking each other’s looks, referring to each other as “clout chasers” and the Island Boys even used a homophobic slur against Bryce. Finally, after showing off stacks of money and a gun in a safe, one of them told Bryce to “fly to Fort Lauderdale airport and we’ll show you what real gangsters do,” before promptly leaving the call. What this means for their rumored fight is unclear. While the Island Boys insisted they don’t need money from the boxing match and would prefer to settle it in Florida, it doesn’t seem as though Bryce wants to go that route. If the fight does go ahead, it would be Bryce’s second official boxing match after his loss to Austin McBroom at the Battle of the Platforms, and the Island Boys’ first officially recognized boxing match.

The pair were set to make an appearance on Logan Paul’s popular ‘Impaulsive’ podcast in December, but a video posted by the podcasts’ Instagram account before the episode’s release showed them in a tense confrontation with the hosts. A day later, the full episode was uploaded to YouTube, showing viewers the lead-up to the twins eventually storming off. Topic starts at 25:45 After host George Janko suggested they could fall back on their expensive jewelry collection if their rap career doesn’t work out, the twins took offense, with one saying: “I don’t need financial advice when I probably make more money than you.” This confrontation ultimately led to the Island Boys walking off set. Island Boys respond to backlash After they walked off the show, their TikTok comment section was flooded with comments criticizing them for their behavior, and they responded to several of the messages with videos explaining their side. In response to one commenter who suggested Logan “was gonna fold” them, Flyysoulja responded: “Man, stop. You know for a fact that man won’t fold me. Let’s be positive though, man. On a positive note, it was gonna be a very good podcast but someone had to ruin it by speaking nonsense.” Click here if TikTok doesn’t load When someone wrote that George was just giving the boys some advice, he explained: “This is the problem. Me and you are two different people. If someone’s talking about your financials to you, it’s not a problem for you. But if someone’s talking about my financials, I don’t wanna hear it. You’re not the one that’s making me a million dollars. I made a million dollars myself.” Click here if TikTok doesn’t load “Him, he ain’t never made me no million dollars. He doesn’t have to give me financial advice. Telling me to sell my jewelry that I worked so hard for and I accomplished, I don’t gotta do that. Because I make money so I don’t have to sell nothing. So, he’s wrong.” Whether the Island Boys end up filming with the Impaulsive crew again remains to be seen, but they maintain that they were in the right for walking off set.

  • Island Boys’ Kodiyakredd hospitalized after dirt bike crash – Dexerto

    Island Boys’ Kodiyakredd hospitalized after dirt bike crash Island BoysFlyysoulja, who is one-half of the viral sensations ‘The Island Boys”, has announced via his TikTok account that his brother known as ‘Kodiyakredd’ has been hospitalized after crashing his dirt bike. The twin rap duo exploded into online stardom in 2021, after their breakout song ‘I’m an Island Boy’ went viral. The brothers have since gained a controversial reputation over the years and have turned into more content creators than rappers that have constantly made the headlines. The two haven’t been able to escape drama, with many questionable choices leaving viewers divided. This has included: numerous feuds with TikTokers, YouTubers, and celebrities, being raided by police, and even starting their own OnlyFans account which many have deemed “incestuous.” After Kodiyakredd wasn’t appearing in TikTok videos or via any socials for a few days, Flyysoulja uploaded a mysterious post to his TikTok account on August 16, that featured text saying “Redd Hospitalized” showing a photo of an ambulance. Fans flooded in the comments sending their support and prayers, with one user saying: “Prayers for Redd and all of you.” With the reasons unknown as to why he had been hospitalized, commenters began to speculate with some suggesting it was drug or mental-health-related. Flyysoulja confirmed Redd was hospitalized due to crashing his dirt bike In a TikTok posted the following day, Soulja provided an update to confirm why he had been hospitalized. “When he was riding his dirt bike I guess he hit himself a little too hard”, he said. Before saying: “The dirt bike is pretty hard to control, so he just has to be more cautious.” He highlights that because his dirt bike is a “two-stroke” bike then it makes it typically a lot harder to control as they are less stable and require more control from the rider themselves. He also mentioned that he needs to wear “gear” in regard to protective clothing to avoid future dangers. This is not the first time Redd has been seen crashing his dirt bike without any protection, as he previously has carried out a small dirt bike jump successfully in a TikTok, although moments later is seen losing control of the bike and falling onto the grass. If there any further updates, we’ll be sure to have them on Dexerto’s Entertainment section.

  • Island Boys make new song for Jake Paul’s rematch with Tyron Woodley – Dexerto

    Island Boys make new song for Jake Paul’s rematch with Tyron Woodley YouTube: Big Bag Ent / Instagram: Jake Paul, SHOWTIMEInternet sensations the Island Boys have put a new spin on their viral song of the same name just for Jake Paul’s upcoming rematch with UFC champ Tyron Woodley. The Island Boys are kind of taking over the internet right now. The rap duo, who are identical twins (minus their differently colored hair and face tattoos), have gone viral for their song ‘Island Boy,’ which has racked up 2.5 million views since being uploaded on December 3, 2021. Whether you love them or hate them, the Island Boys are getting major attention online… much in the style of YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. The self-proclaimed ‘Problem Child’ of boxing is getting back in the ring four months after his August bout with former five-time UFC champ Tyron Woodley for his first-ever rematch. There’s a lot on the line for Paul, and he’s showing out in some big (and pricey) ways — his $500,000 ‘Most Valuable Boxer’ belt and upcoming ‘most expensive fight trunks in history’ being just two of them. View this post on Instagram Island Boys make song for Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley rematch However, he’s gone the extra mile by asking the Island Boys to make a special song specifically for his December 18 rematch against Woodley… and the Boys agreed. Their special song isn’t anything totally original. Rather, it’s just a play on their existing hit, Island Boy, with different lyrics: “I’m a boxer boy / Fighting Tyron Woodley on December 18,” etc. View this post on Instagram That being said, it certainly makes for some interesting promo, especially considering that the duo walked off the set of the IMPAULSIVE podcast around the same time — the podcast produced and hosted by Jake’s big bro, Logan Paul.

  • Island Boys’ former manager claims their bank account has “run dry” – Dexerto

    Island Boys’ former manager claims their bank account has “run dry” Instagram: kodiyakreddDuring a recent podcast, The Island Boys’ former manager claimed that they still owe him $150,000 and that they have pretty much “run dry,” implying that the brothers don’t have any money. In October 2021, The Island Boy’s very own kodiyakredd posted the freestyle rap onto his TikTok account. It quickly went viral, gaining millions of views and thousands of shares. Their popularity caught the attention of Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart, as well as Logan Paul who brought the brothers onto his Impaulsive podcast where they wound up storming off the set after a hostile conversation with George Janko. On a recent episode of the No Jumper podcast, their former manager spoke about The Island Boys, alleging that they have “pretty much run dry.” Are The Island Boys broke? During the podcast, their former manager, “Poker The Jew,” revealed that The Island Boys did him dirty. “They owe me about $150,000,” he revealed. One of the hosts asked what they owed him the money for, and Poker explained that it was his cut of the money they made from doing Cameo videos for fans. Poker also explained that they only bring money in from Cameo and a little bit from TikTok, but “they’ve pretty much run dry at this point,” implying that The Island Boys do not have any money. (Topic starts at 0:37 in the video) However, their alleged financial troubles may be a thing of the past soon. Back in April, it was revealed that The Island Boys were set to compete in an influencer boxing reality show that could potentially see the boys bring home $1,000,000. If you ask the internet, though, their boxing skills aren’t exactly up to par.

  • Island Boys join OnlyFans and immediately risk ban over “incest” claims – Dexerto

    Island Boys join OnlyFans and immediately risk ban over “incest” claims Instagram: kodiyakreddThe Island Boys, brothers Kodiyakredd and Flyysoulja, have created an OnlyFans account together — risking a ban in the process. Over the last few years, The Island Boys have skyrocketed in popularity thanks to their constant video uploads on TikTok. The brother’s former manager has gone on record stating their bank account has since “run dry,” and most recently they teased the idea of making an OnlyFans. They went ahead with the creation of their OnlyFans, and the Island Boys are risking a ban from the site. Island Boy’s OnlyFans account freaks out the internet Sharing some of the pictures posted by The Island Boys on Reddit, the user revealed: “The Island Boys are making OnlyFans content together.” In the four pictures shared on the post, you can see Kodiyakredd and Flyysoulja kissing. Users quickly took to the comments to share their opinion on the brothers making an OnlyFans together, and many of them were left stunned. “Aren’t they brothers? The f*ck?!” one user replied, while another commented: “Excuse me while I go stab my eyes out.” “For some reason, this doesn’t shock me. These 2 are nasty,” a third viewer replied. Others commented that they may be breaking OnlyFans’ TOS due to the fact that they’re twin brothers. “Pretty sure you can report them on OF. Should be against TOS,” a fourth commenter said. Neither of the brothers has commented on the backlash surrounding their OF account, but we’ll be sure to update you if they do. In December 2021, they were quick to make a statement after storming off the set of the Impaulsive podcast after a comment from George Janko rubbed them the wrong way.

  • Island Boys eyed for Influencer Boxing reality TV show with $1 million prize – Dexerto

    Island Boys eyed for Influencer Boxing reality TV show with $1 million prize Instagram: flyysouljahRap duo the Island Boys are being eyed as possible contestants for an upcoming reality TV show all about influencer boxing. Here’s what we know so far. The Island Boys broke the internet late last year after their song ‘I’m an Island Boy’ went viral all across social media (and subsequently got stuck in everyone’s heads). Their unique style also became quite a talking point in pop culture, earning them appearances on major podcasts like Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE and Steve-O’s Wild Ride! Since then, the pair have sparked a beef with TikTok star Bryce Hall, prompting Hall to challenge them to a two-on-one boxing match. Months later, the rappers finally accepted his offer, although no date, venue, or other details have yet been revealed… but it’s looking like they could have another boxing venture in their sights already. In April 2022, it was announced that LiveOne & Propagate Content will be bringing influencer boxing from the internet to the small screen with a reality show all about the ongoing trend. The show will pit 32 male and female influencers against each other in the boxing ring to crown two winners with a $1 million boxing contract for the new international Ultimate Social Boxing League, which LiveOne is expected to launch this summer. While casting is still underway, LiveOne’s founder, Rob Ellin, isn’t opposed to taking on the Island Boys for this upcoming project, as told in an interview with TMZ. “We want you,” Ellin said. “It looks great. It looks energetic. It looks like these guys have those promotional skills to have that energy of becoming a true brand. Steve Austin, right? The Rock. Hulk Hogan.” “You want dolls made of you? You want a career? You want to build brands? You want to own tequila companies? Yeah, sure. But, you better get yourself into boxing shape,” he added. No worries there, Ellin — the Island Boys have already uploaded their sparring footage to social media (although whether or not they’re up to snuff is still up in the air). For now, it’s looking like the rap duo is adding another skill to their resume… even though it’s still unclear when exactly we’ll be seeing them step into the ring.

  • Island Boys fire back at claims they were thrown out of Jake Paul boxing match – Dexerto

    Island Boys fire back at claims they were thrown out of Jake Paul boxing match Instagram: kodiyakreddThe Island Boys have addressed rumors that they were thrown out of Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2 for throwing a shoe, denying that such an incident ever happened. After weeks of anticipation, Paul and Woodley finally met in the ring again on December 19. A devastating knockout in the sixth round kept Paul’s winning streak intact, but it wasn’t the only moment that captivated the crowd. Having shown their support for the social media star ahead of the bout, the Island Boys happened to be in attendance. Just their presence alone was enough to cause chaos in the venue as drinks were thrown and fans almost got into fights of their own. At one point, fellow controversial internet celeb KEEMSTAR even claimed they were “kicked out for throwing shoes.” Two days removed from the event and the Island Boys have finally issued a response, denying that they were ever removed from the arena. Island boys getting kicked out for throwing shoes pic.twitter.com/lWifSIjkFD — KEEM 🍿 (@KEEMSTAR) December 19, 2021 “We’re not throwing shoes,” they said in response to a question on TikTok. Seemingly confused by the controversy, they assured they were able to watch the entire PPV from their seats. They stressed: “[We] were sitting there the whole time.” Rather, it was an earlier ruckus that had security keeping a close eye on them, according to the Island Boys themselves. No shoes were launched through the crowd, they explained. Though beer was supposedly thrown at a cop, causing more hysteria in the crowd. “They thought it came from us,” the popular twin act continued on their recent TikTok reply, “but it came from one of the guys we were hanging out with.” So while a fair few objects were flying in their direction, security allegedly didn’t remove the Island Boys after all. With the crowd evidently against them, however, there’s no telling if they’ll ever brave the storm at another influencer boxing event moving forward.

  • Island Boys’ Flyysouljah comes out as gay after making “incest” content with brother – Dexerto

    Island Boys’ Flyysouljah comes out as gay after making “incest” content with brother Instagram: flyysouljahFlyysouljah of Island Boys fame has come out as gay, just weeks after sparking backlash for kissing his brother while creating content for the pair’s OnlyFans account. Rap duo and twin brothers ‘The Island Boys’ first popped onto the scene in late 2021 to heavy criticism from listeners all across the net thanks to their debut song of the same name. The track, coupled with the siblings’ unique sense of style, sparked both backlash and curiosity across social media — and soon, the twins had carved out a niche for themselves. However, after making multiple appearances on podcasts and even getting booed at their own concerts, the Island Boys went quiet over the following year… but in 2023, the pair popped up again in a jaw-dropping way. Island Boys’ Flyysouljah comes out as gay In June 2023, the Island Boys outraged social media after netizens noticed they’d uploaded a photo of themselves nearly locking lips. It wasn’t long after that when the brothers created an OnlyFans account together, where they uploaded photos and videos of themselves kissing. Many viewers were immediately disgusted, labeling the content as “incest.” However, Island Boy member Flyysouljah denied these claims, saying in a statement to TMZ, “We’re both straight males and kissing is not counted as a sexual act.” However, mere weeks later, Flyysouljah came out as gay. The artist clarified his sexuality in a TikTok live stream that’s taking social media by storm. “I’m a top, I’m never a bottom,” he said in a viral clip from the broadcast. “I’m never a bottom. I’m a top. You know what I’m saying? I’m like that. For real.” “You guys support me, because you feel me,” he continued. “I like men. It is what it is. I’m a top. I’m a top at the end of the day. That’s what’s going on.” Thus far, it doesn’t seem as though Kodiyakredd, the other half of the Island Boys, has commented on the situation at the time of writing.

It started when they stormed off Logan Paul’s podcast following a heated confrontation with co-host George Janko. Jake wasn’t there at the time. However, he wasn’t impressed with what went down. He described The Island Boys as “punks,” mocked their size, and claimed he would have “smacked the s**t out of them” if he was there. Flyysouljah, one of the members of the viral duo, posted a series of TikTok videos responding to fans’ questions about Jake. Not only did he clap back at him, but he also shared his feelings about the podcast confrontation. In his first post, he responded to a fan asking whether he’d fight Jake Paul by bursting out in song. “He don’t want to [fight] me,” he sung. “You gotta stop that acting. The internet is a funny place. I’m just way too thuggin.’” Then, he followed it up with another post and slammed Paul. “Man, why y’all put me in the same sentence as that man?” he said. “I’m thuggin.’ You can’t even tell by the way I look? That man is not on my level, homie.” Finally, he talked about his experience on the IMPAULSIVE podcast. However, he did it in a mocking voice. “They treated me very, very bad. They really did treat me badly. I don’t appreciate that. I was very [disappointed]. Kodiyakredd, the other Island Boy, has been less vocal about the feud than his twin. In fact, he hasn’t posted about it at all. It will be interesting to see how Jake responds. If he didn’t have an enormous height and weight advantage over them, he might have considered taking them on in an exhibition bout.

Just as Jake Paul will touch gloves with Andre August for his next fight on December 15, KSI and IShowSpeed will throw down in a charity sparring match at the same time. On November 28, Speed called out the Prime co-founder to spar, vowing he’ll “kick his ass” if he accepts the offer. Lo and behold, KSI agreed to the challenge, but on the condition that they’d go blow-for-blow at the same time his rival Jake Paul will be stepping into the ring. Ahead of their face-off, Speed has started preparing with some training. Nevertheless, his most recent session ended in embarrassment after taking the wrong step. IShowSpeed lands himself in freezing cold pool while sparring During his December 10 live stream, Speed put on his gear and touched gloves with his trainer in his backyard by the pool for a little sparring session. All was going well for Speed, who managed to land a few shots on his training partner. That was until the YouTube star took a few too many steps backward and found himself plunging into his freezing cold pool. From there, the 18-year-old decided enough was enough, calling it quits for the day, and began taking off his gloves. “I think I’m done for today man,” he said while trying to catch his breath. “F**k bro, f**k man.” Ahead of their scheduled charity throwdown, Speed called on help from the “best boxer of all time” Manny Pacquiao to train him before sparring with KSI. However, ‘PacMan’ hasn’t got back to him yet. The two YouTube stars will be battling it out for charity, with all donations going to the Anthony Walker Foundation, which aims to tackle racism by “providing educational opportunities, victim support services and by promoting equity and inclusion for all.” Make sure to check out our guide on how to watch the sparring match with KSI right here on Dexerto.

    IShowSpeed’s father seemingly pokes fun at viral wardrobe malfunction IShowSpeedIShowSpeed’s very own father has seemingly poked fun at his son’s viral wardrobe malfunction in a recent TikTok live stream. On August 16, IShowSpeed accidentally flashed himself to an audience of thousands during a live stream which left even Speed himself shocked as he immediately shut down the broadcast. The clip quickly caught fire, going viral across social media. However in his comeback stream after the incident, Speed was visibly upset at viewers sharing the embarrassing clip. He even further broke character to reveal how the incident affected him mentally as viewers cracked jokes about it. With one particular spam phrase of ‘IShowMeat’. And it seems it was not only viewers on the internet making fun of his situation as now, his dad appears to have joined the mix as well, repeating the phrase in relation to Speed’s accidental flashing. In a clipped TikTok live stream from Speed’s dad, Darren Watkins Sr., he can be seen repeatedly saying “IShowMeat” which was a phrase thousands have used online to poke fun at the situation. Watkins Sr. even further ad-libbed a tune to the phrase. “I show the meat, to make you feel complete. I show the meat, you can believe,” he can be heard singing. It’s not known if Watkins Sr. is entirely aware of the phrase and its intentions. He may simply be repeating something he’s read in chat without knowing its origins. Additionally, the phrase “IShowMeat” and the meat emoji were continuously spammed in his chat, which may have led him to say it. Speed is yet to address this particular part of the fallout from his accidental flash. But we’ll be sure to update you here should that change in the coming days.

On March 8, 2023, IShowSpeed attempted to do the Coke & Mentos challenge in his toilet — but the results weren’t as exciting as he had hoped. IShowSpeed Coke & Mentos challenge didn’t go as planned During his stream, IShowSpeed decided to go into the bathroom and try the infamous Coke & Mentos challenge in his toilet as a way to ‘make Christiano Ronaldo appear.’ Discovered around 2005, the hands-on experiment involves mixing Coca-Cola with Mentos mints as the reaction the two have together creates a geyser-like explosion from the bottle. However, when Speed attempted it in the toilet… nothing happened. Presumably because the Mentos just went down the drain while the Coke remained in the bowl. Frustrated, Speed decided to attempt the experiment in the bathroom sink. With his cameraman continuing to stay focused, the YouTube star shook up the bottle of Coke before opening it up to fill the sink. The bottle had another idea, however, as it blasted out of the container while spraying the bathroom ceiling, walls, and countertop. It’s no secret that the YouTuber is a big fan of Christiano Ronaldo as he’s constantly trying to find a way to meet the soccer player in person. He’s gotten close, however, having witnessed him score during a match in Saudi Arabia.

In a YouTube short posted on July 28, the 18-year-old sparked worries among his fans after sharing a concerning health issue. The YouTuber, who was clearly in agony while making the video, revealed that he has a cluster headache, making it difficult for him to even open his eyes, explaining it’s the worst thing he’s ever experienced. “You guys, I want to make this video if I die. Right now, I have one of the worst experiences I’m having right now guys. I can’t even open up my eyes,” he said with pain in his voice. “I have this thing called a cluster headache right now. A deadly headache disease. I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I can’t do anything right now.” Speed continued: “It hurts so bad chat, It hurts so bad. I can’t do anything, like anything it just hurts. Everything I do is like something pounding my head every time and… I’m so angry. It just hurts, like even now it hurts. I can’t do sh*t. There’s no care to this. I want to let you all know love y’all if anything happens.” Speed’s dad gives update after concerning “cluster headache” With many worried after the YouTuber went dark across all social media platforms, Speed’s father Darren Sr. shared an update, assuring fans that his son is okay, and thanked them all for their concerns and prayers. “This is Daddy Speed right here, I’m just giving you guys an update on Junior. Junior is doing much better, he was just not feeling himself,” he said. “We don’t ever say sick, we just say he wasn’t feeling himself, and he made sure that he got himself taken care of. “So, that being said, he’s good. I thank you guys for all your concerns, your prayers, and we thank you guys for being there because he’s only doing this for you guys.” He added: “He’s working hard for you guys so that you guys can see him making good content for you all. So let’s keep encouraging him, and keep motivating him.” Cluster headaches are a rare type of severe headache that begin quickly and without warning, and are often described as a sharp, burning or piercing sensation on one side of the head. Thankfully, they are not life-threatening, although the YouTuber will likely take a few days away from streaming.

Speed said: “Whoever’s doing that sh*t, chill out bro. Seriously. Chill out, bro. Seriously stop, cause I’m not in the mood for that bro. I might just have to take like a one-day break from streaming.” The creator went on to create a group chat with anyone that wanted to join, but he was met with nothing but more hateful comments from viewers. “Those are the exact people.

    IShowSpeed won’t be banned on YouTube after viral wardrobe malfunction YouTube: IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed won’t be getting banned from the platform after accidentally exposing himself during a live stream. On August 16, uber-popular streamer IShowSpeed took to YouTube to stream Five Nights at Freddy’s, a notoriously spooky horror game. During his broadcast, he got jumpscared by one of the game’s animatronics, and turned his fear into a taunt toward the character, pelvic thrusting at the screen. While doing so, Speed accidentally flashed his audience of thousands of viewers and was instantly shocked by what happened. Speed seemingly shut down his broadcast directly afterward and has been silent on the subject ever since. IShowSpeed won’t receive YouTube ban after viral wardrobe malfunction Fans were extremely worried that their favorite streamer would receive a permanent ban from the platform, which prohibits “the depiction of clothed or unclothed genitals, breasts, or buttocks that are meant for sexual gratification,” including “the depiction of sexual acts, or fetishes that are meant for sexual gratification.” However, it looks like these fans can take a breather from their efforts in trying to convince YouTube to go easy on Speed. As per reports from TMZ, it looks like the streamer won’t be getting a ban due to the incident. TMZ reached out to YouTube for comment on the situation, and were told that Speed removed his stream from their platform right after the incident happened. Although he did violate YouTube’s policies, the site says he’s good to continue streaming. Fans are taking to social media to celebrate this latest news after worries that the streamer would have to find yet another home for his broadcasts, after being permanently banned from Twitch in 2021.

  • IShowSpeed under fire for illegal 150 mph street race in new Lamborghini – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed under fire for illegal 150 mph street race in new Lamborghini YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed is copping some flak in his comments for pushing his Lamborghini over 150 miles per hour in a street race with an Acura. IShowSpeed is no stranger to on-camera antics that other people label “stupid”. He’s not riding around in a shopping cart this time, however. In his most recent IRL stream, IShowSpeed took out his brand-new, Ronaldo-emblazoned Lamborghini Huracan to show it off. During the stream, another driver set Speed off prompting the content creator to race the other driver. Wearing no seatbelt, IShowSpeed weaved through traffic and reached speeds exceeding 150 mph. Viewers of the stream have called out his recklessness and flamed him for endangering others. Throughout the stream, IShowSpeed made some decisions on the road that many took note of but it was just over the halfway point when another driver caught his attention. Screaming expletives, Speed took off on the highway and engaged them in a race. “You’re not gonna beat me in no f**king Acura,” Speed screeched as he took his Lamborghini to 154 miles per hour. Commenters weren’t as impressed as the streamer was with himself. “Someone needs to teach bro better driving habits before he hurts himself or someone else,” one user said. “Isn’t he just committing crimes and posting it?” another viewer asked. “What an idiot.” One concerned fan actually gave a pretty impassioned plea for IShowSpeed to be more considerate. “You’re gonna get yourself or someone killed bro. You probably think you’re a good driver just like every young man out there, including myself when I was your age, but you don’t have the experience to be driving that fast.” The highest speed limit in the USA is 85 miles per hour in Texas so, as many viewers rightfully pointed out, Speed’s race was most certainly illegal. Some are speculating that the streamer may face legal repercussions after broadcasting evidence of a crime online.

  • IShowSpeed under fire for viral reaction to Messi winning Ballon d’Or – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed under fire for viral reaction to Messi winning Ballon d’Or Twitter: IShowSpeedSui/Screenshot via YouTube: CBS SportsStreaming star IShowSpeed has drawn some flak for his reaction to seeing Lionel Messi win his eighth Ballon d’Or title, as he barked while everyone else was giving him a standing ovation. Since bursting onto the streaming scene, IShowSpeed has pretty much engrained himself into the footballing world. He regularly plays FIFA, well EA SPORTS FC these days, on stream and has linked up with some of the biggest stars around. Everyone knows he’s the premier Cristiano Ronaldo fan and refuses to back down when it comes to admitting that Lionel Messi has long surpassed him as the greatest footballer ever. Well, when Messi was being crowned with his eighth Ballon d’Or title in recognition of what he’d done to help Argentina win the 2022 World Cup, Speed was invited to be there. However, he’s come under a bit of criticism. IShowSpeed under fire for barking at Balon d’Or award show That’s right, Speed was invited to the Balon d’Or gala in Paris and was able to mingle with some of the biggest stars around. He took photos with Erling Haaland, Vinicus Jr, Eden Hazard, Jude Bellingham, and more. However, it was his reaction to Messi’s win that prompted some backlash. As the Argentine forward was presented with the award, the attendees in the room started to rise to their feet and begin a standing ovation. Speed sat there looking disappointed to begin with before he launched into his signature bark and shouting. That prompted some interesting looks from those sitting around him, as well as questions online about him being there. “Why do they give this man any attention?” one viewer asked. “Who even invited him to this?” quizzed another. “Am I getting old or is this just not funny in the slightest?” another commented. “Always gotta be at the centre of attention, even at massive events like this. Prime example of a narcissist,” another said. “Am I getting old or is this just not funny in the slightest? Some of Speed’s regular fans, naturally, found it funny but the wider footballing community.

    IShowSpeed trolls teacher with barking prank during live streamed class YouTube: Live SpeedyYouTube star IShowSpeed livestreamed one of his Zoom classes and pranked his teachers by doing a Kermit voice impression and pretending to be a dog. IShowSpeed is one of the internet’s more chaotic personalities. From setting off fireworks in his bedroom to pouring cold milk in a vat of hot oil in front of thousands of viewers, Speed’s broadcasts never disappoint. He’s also known for playing the occasional prank on people from time to time and has even streamed himself doing schoolwork in the past, having asked his viewers for help on a test (which he subsequently failed). He shared his educational pursuits with fans during a recent broadcast, where he pranked his teacher by attempting a Kermit voice impression while asking questions about an assignment. IShowSpeed pranks teacher during livestreamed Zoom class As if that wasn’t odd enough, he amped up the prank by barking loudly into the microphone, which he pretended was his dog making noise from the other side of the house. It seemed like the teacher didn’t know that Speed was the one barking as she attempted to speak over his loud noises to answer his question. “It’s really annoying — see, even your dog is annoyed,” the instructor said over the call. “Yeah, my dog is crazy, isn’t he?” Speed remarked. However, despite pranking his teacher, he did claim that she had been “a wonderful teacher this whole year.” Despite his best efforts, Speed’s prank ended up falling flat; but this is far from the first time he’s barked at someone during a call. Back in 2022, Speed notably started barking out of nowhere during a FaceTime call with MrBeast. Unlike his teacher, though, MrBeast promptly ended the call after things started to unravel, leaving Speed alone on the other end of the line.

  • IShowSpeed turns IRL stream into surreal Family Guy episode with Peter & Lois Griffin – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed turns IRL stream into surreal Family Guy episode with Peter & Lois Griffin YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed is no stranger to out of the box antics in his streams or even off it, from setting off fireworks that brought him his initial infamy to getting RKO’d by Randy Orton at Wrestlemania. However, it’s his IRL streams where things get really weird, from a bark-off with a Police Officer to causing mischief in a UEFA Champions League match. However, possibly the most absurd moment so far comes from a New York IRL stream where he journeys through the city with a real-life Peter and Lois Griffin. As Speed rode around the city with both Griffins, they decided to stop by KFC to get some lunch, in which we get the wonderfully surreal image of IShowSpeed getting chicken with Peter and Lois (who is in a bikini and rollerblades). As the three conversed with each other ordering their food and eating, many of the store’s patrons and employees took an interest. Taking pictures with them and filming them as they ate their chicken. In an absolutely bizarre moment, the three broke into song, singing the Theme song of The Family Guy, with the crescendo ending in Speed doing a backflip to cap off their song. Clip starts at 2:10:15 Unfortunately for Lois fans, she would go on to leave the stream, rollerblading into the sunset as Speed and Peter continued their antics around New York, constantly being chased down by fans. Although not the most insane IRL stream one could watch, Speed has certainly topped the surreal charts with this stream. As it’s only in his stream where we can watch him eat KFC with Peter and Lois Griffin in a bikini.

  • IShowSpeed to potentially miss Sidemen Charity Match after hospitalization – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed to potentially miss Sidemen Charity Match after hospitalization IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed may miss this year’s Sidemen Charity Match after his recent hospitalization in Japan with an intense sinus infection. On July 28, 2023, IShowSpeed shared an update on his health while in Japan, revealing he was currently undergoing a cluster headache, making it difficult for him to even open his eyes. Just a few days later it was revealed the YouTube star had been rushed to hospital with an intense sinus infection — which resulted in his right eye being severely swollen shut. Thankfully, the 18-year-old has since made a recovery, returning home to the States, and continuing business as usual with his live streams. However, Speed may miss out on the upcoming Sidemen Charity Match, which is expected to be the biggest yet with over 60,000 fans in attendance. IShowSpeed might miss Sidemen Charity Match In the build-up to the September 9 event, the Sidemen have slowly teased who we’ll be seeing on the pitch. So far, there have been several massive figures confirmed to be putting their boots on, including MrBeast and xQc. IShowSpeed was also among the few already confirmed to be playing after KSI promised him a spot if he completed 20 kickups — a challenge that he’d complete. However, Speed’s invitation announcement has been mysteriously deleted. Furthermore, in an August 16 live stream, the YouTube star revealed that his doctors believe he may not even be fit enough to participate. “Chat, do you all think I’ll be going to the charity match? Do you all think I will be well enough to play in the charity match?” he asked his fans. “Because my doctors right now say a whole different story.” He added: “Chat, my doctors are telling me a whole different story right now.” There are still a couple of weeks to go until the Sidemen Charity Match is expected to kick off — meaning there’s still a chance Speed can make a full recovery before then. We’ll just have to wait and see whether or not he walks out of the tunnel on the big day.

  • IShowSpeed tries to fry corn dog with milk and it ends in disaster – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed tries to fry corn dog with milk and it ends in disaster YouTube: Speedy BoykinsIShowSpeed’s YouTube stream nearly ended in disaster after he attempted to fry a corn dog in hot oil and poured cold milk into the mixture. IShowSpeed is one of YouTube’s most popular broadcasters, having been banned from Twitch back in 2021. Since then, he’s racked up a huge audience for himself, and even reigned as YouTube’s number one streamer throughout 2022. Part of Speed’s appeal is the sheer chaos of his streams. In the past, the young influencer has gone viral for all manner of wild antics — like the time his attempt at the Kylie Jenner lip challenge went horribly wrong, or when he asked his viewers to help him with a school test (only to fail in spite of the group effort). Speed has also ended up in a few dangerous situations in the past, as seen when he nearly lit his bedroom on fire after setting off fireworks to celebrate the Fourth of July in his house, prompting a call to emergency services. The streamer nearly suffered a repeat of this incident in February 2022 after deciding to fry some corn dogs in hot oil during a live broadcast. IShowSpeed stream erupts in disaster after pouring milk into hot oil At first, everything seemed to be going quite well (aside from the fact that the fryer was sitting on a folding chair surrounded by carpet). However, things quickly took a turn for the worse after Speed decided to pour a glass of almond milk into the hot oil, causing the mixture to furiously bubble and nearly boil over. In his panic, Speed knocked over his camera — but it looks like the situation was resolved without further issue, although things certainly could have gone far worse for the influencer, who nearly burned his own house down thanks to his impromptu fireworks display last year.

Just four days later, the YouTuber was swatted by a viewer during a live stream and it has happened yet again.

While Slipz was talking with police, Speed became increasingly frustrated. “Yo what the f**k is happening bro?” he said. “There’s no way. I’m about to quit YouTube bruh, I can’t do this anymore.” Speed’s assistant took to Twitter/X to share his frustration as well. In the post, he simply shared a facepalm and middle finger emoji. It prompted comments from fans, who shared their distaste for whoever is swatting Speed. “This is not funny at all…” one user replied. Another said: “It’s not even funny anymore.” “People are lame asf man, nothing better to do. Hopefully yall get this situated,” a third fan chimed in.

  • IShowSpeed ‘throws up’ after seeing Cristiano Ronaldo’s leaked EA FC 24 rating – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed ‘throws up’ after seeing Cristiano Ronaldo’s leaked EA FC 24 rating YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed was left physically disgusted after seeing Cristiano Ronaldo’s rating in EA FC 24, especially in comparison to rival Messi. Cristiano Ronaldo certainly has a lot of fans, natural for a footballer who has been at the top of the game for the past decade. But none can claim to be as ride-or-die for Ronaldo as streaming superstar IShowSpeed. From going to every single Portugal match in the 2022 World Cup, to typically donning a CR7 shirt on stream, and even giving him a shout-out when receiving a Streamy, he’s been a superfan for quite some time. But with EA FC 24 on the horizon, and with many player’s ratings starting to leak online, Speed was definitely not happy with Ronaldo’s leaked rating which appears much lower from last year’s. “I literally threw up,” said Speed upon looking at Ronaldo’s 2024 rating. “I just threw up in my mouth. That’s how f***ing disgusted I f***ing am right now. That’s so f***ing disgusting.” The leaked ratings come from DonkTrading, a Fifa Ultimate Team leaker, showing that Ronaldo’s overall rating has seemingly gone from 90 in Fifa 23 to 86 in EA FC 24. Additionally, many of his attributes were brought down, with his pace, shooting, and dribbling all being significantly reduced. In comparison to rivaling Lionel Messi who is still at an overall rating of 90. It’s worth noting, however, that these are indeed just leaks for the time being. As always, things can always change throughout development, especially in a live-service environment. So there’s always a chance Speed’s cries are heard loud and clear and Ronaldo’s final rating is a little higher in the full release on September 29.

  • IShowSpeed switches from Ronaldo mega-fan to Messi fan after insane debut goal – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed switches from Ronaldo mega-fan to Messi fan after insane debut goal IShowSpeedIShowSpeed has swallowed his own words, becoming a Messi fan despite his obsession with Cristiano Ronaldo. IShowSpeed‘s admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo is almost unparalleled — with the YouTuber going to some extreme lengths to show his love for the Portuguese footballer, going as far as getting a tattoo of his face. In the past, the 18-year-old has traveled across the world several times in hopes of meeting his idol. Although it proved to be way more difficult than he’d ever imagined. It first didn’t go to plan as Ronaldo was left out of the Manchester United squad after Speed traveled to watch the Red Devils at Old Trafford. However, finally saw the multiple-time Balon d’Or winner on the pitch in person in Qatar at the 2022 World Cup. After years of trying to meet CR7 in the flesh, the day finally came in June 2023, where he not only met the footballer, but also some of his family members. But now, the YouTube star has painfully had to swallow his own words, after his promise to start supporting Messi backfired. IShowSpeed now a Messi fan after promise backfires During a July 21 live stream, Speed attended Inter Miami’s match against Liga MX side Cruz Azul, in which Lionel Messi, one of Ronaldo’s biggest rivals in football, made his debut for Miami. The game was fairly even, looking like it was ending in a 1-1 draw as the match entered into two minutes of extra time. However, Inter Miami was awarded a free kick just outside the box in the 94th minute, where Messi stepped up to take the kick. It was then that Speed told his stream that he’d become a Messi fan if the Argentinian scored from the free kick. “If Messi scores this free kick, I’m a Messi fan wallahi,” the YouTube star said. Moments later, the new Miami number 10 only went and did it. Messi put the ball straight into the top left of the goal not giving the goalkeeper any chance. Wearing his Ronaldo shirt at the time, the goal left Speed completely stunned, before he took off his shirt to unveil he was wearing an Inter Miami one underneath, of course with Messi on the back of it. Be careful about what you wish for Speed.

  • IShowSpeed threatened by police with felony after making emergency call – Dexerto

It’s fair to say his viewers play a pretty big part in his content, too, regularly trolling the young star and tricking him into doing some ludicrous things. IShowSpeed threatened with felony after making emergency call During his July 23 live stream, the 18-year-old was shocked to his core after two police officers arrived at his home. Earlier in the same stream, Speed was told to dial 112, the emergency services number in the EU which redirects to 911 in the States, prompting the response from the police. The officers asked the YouTube star why he dialed the number, where he claimed that he had no idea the number is for the emergency services — explaining that his friend on PlayStation party chat told him to call the number. The officer then gave Speed a pretty stern warning, explaining that it’s on record that he was told by the police not to call 911 or 112 already, adding that it’s a felony of the fourth degree that could land him some jail time. “Listen to me loud and clear, I would be very careful calling three-digit numbers that your friends tell you to call,” said the officer. “There’s a thing called disruption of public service. All right?” “You can look up the advice code if you want. It’s a felony of the fourth degree that carries prison time. Does that make sense? Do you understand that? This isn’t a joking matter.” A felony of fourth degree can carry to up to 18 months of prison time, with a minimum sentence of six months. Those charged with a crime will also pay up to $5,000 in fines and spend up to five years on community control. Speed assured the officers before they left that he wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

The cameraman claimed that Speed was swatted before he was escorted away from the scene. “I didn’t know, bro,” Speed can be heard saying in the video. “Oh my god, bro. I swear I didn’t do anything. I didn’t do s**t.” The broadcast continued after an officer moved the camera away from the ensuing events. A short conversation was had before the stream was shut down. Speed is one of YouTube’s top streaming personalities, most recently dominating viewership against the likes of giants like Ludwig and Dr Disrespect.

    IShowSpeed suddenly unbanned on Twitch years after permanent suspension YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed’s Twitch channel has been quietly reinstated over a year after the streamer was permanently banned from the site in December 2021. It’s safe to say that IShowSpeed is one of the most prominent live streamers on the net. Speed is best known for his over-the-top broadcasts, where he’ll pull off a wide variety of jaw-dropping stunts like setting off a firework in his bedroom or even trying to make elephant toothpaste right next to his streaming setup. Currently, Speed is streaming on YouTube, boasting nearly 30 million subscribers combined across three separate channels – but his original home was Twitch. While Speed was quickly climbing up the ladder to Twitch fame, he was permanently banned from the platform in December 2021 following an outburst he had during a broadcast with fellow creator Adin Ross. IShowSpeed’s channel unbanned after Twitch CEO teases giving permabanned streamers a “second chance” Since then, a number of creators have begged Twitch to reinstate Speed’s account… and now, it seems to have finally happened. On October 10, 2023, fans noticed that Speed’s Twitch channel was available. The account in question is linked in Speed’s Twitter/X profile, and although it boasts a low follower count now, the number continues to rise as of writing this article. Thus far, Speed has yet to comment on this sudden change of heart from Twitch; but it’s not a total surprise to his followers, given some recent conversations that have taken place regarding his account.

Just a month later, in September, Clancy himself said that he was open to giving some permabanned streamers a “second chance,” leading many to hope that Speed’s channel might make a grand return.

    iShowSpeed speechless after Man United’s Anthony Elanga says Ronaldo knows him YouTube: Live SpeedyStreamer iShowSpeed was left absolutely speechless during a FaceTime call with Manchester United player Anthony Elanga, when the winger told him that Cristiano Ronaldo “probably” knows who he is. iShowSpeed, more often known simply as ‘Speed’, is a streamer that has blown up in popularity, thanks in large part due to his obsession and fandom of Portuguese football legend Cristiano Ronaldo. He even made his own song called ‘Ronaldo (Sewey),’ in celebration of Manchester United’s star striker, with the music video earning almost 10 million views at the time of writing. With Speed’s growing popularity and ability to go viral with his crazy antics, he quickly caught the attention of some of the biggest names in all different industries. This includes Ronaldo’s teammate and future star of the game, Anthony Elanga, who followed Speed on social media and had been talking to the streamer here and there. On June 26, Elanga and Speed had a FaceTime call, with Speed clearly excited to speak to one of Ronaldo’s teammates — and speak about the man himself. When Elanga mentioned that “everyone knows” Speed, the streamer couldn’t contain his excitement, finally asking whether Ronaldo knew who he was. Elanga simply said that he’s sure the six-time Ballon d’Or winner knows of him — and that was enough to set Speed over the edge. Timestamp 2:35 After a few moments of speechlessness — perhaps the quietest an iShowSpeed stream has ever been — the streamer finally got to the important questions. “Bro, like… How does Ronaldo smell?” he asked, to which Elanga simply laughed and said “he’s a normal human being, bro!” After a few more questions about Ronaldo (and barking at the star’s girlfriend), Elanga finally called it a night, and once the call ended Speed jumped up, screaming in celebration. It’s fair to say that he’s now one step closer to meeting his idol.

While his security settled the issue, several helpful spectators passed Speed’s phone back to him. Speed said: “What? Bro, what did you just do? Why did he just f*cking punch me, bro? Why did he put his hands on me? I didn’t even touch him!” At the end of the incident, Speed’s security can be seen talking to the attacker while several other watchers separate the two men. This isn’t the first time a streamer has been attacked in the last few days. A Kick streamer in Japan has also been facing harassment for his racist comments on the Japanese public transport system. After the event, Speed said that he had to cancel the rest of the stream due to the incident, but he thanked the FA and his security team for allowing him to come to the event.

  • IShowSpeed slams setup after Randy Orton RKOs him again in WWE 2K24 – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed slams setup after Randy Orton RKOs him again in WWE 2K24 WWEIShowSpeed slammed his setup after Randy Orton RKO’d him once again, in WWE 2K24 that is. Although, he did end up getting some virtual revenge this time around. If there was one moment to take from Wrestlemania 40, it was the absurd clip of IShowSpeed, donning a Prime mascot costume no less, getting RKO’d by the viper, Randy Orton, all for getting in the way between him and Logan Paul. Now it seems Speed has quite the grudge on Orton, as he attempted to get revenge for being RKO’d in front of millions, albeit doing it through WWE 2K24. In a stream days after Wrestlemania 40, Speed decided to boot up 2K24 to not only celebrate his appearance, but also to try and get some revenge. Clip starts at 1:18:42 The first match between his custom-made avatar and Randy Orton resulted in a win for Speed, with many a RKO being dealt to Orton by Speed in sweet revenge, playing Orton’s theme song in celebration. However, his second match didn’t exactly go to plan, as Speed saw himself on the losing end of the match, which ended in a massive RKO by Orton to get the pinfall, to which Speed naturally reacted by slamming his desk. “Not again, the same s*** again. It’s the same s***. It’s the same s***,” Speed said as he restarted the match once again for a third time. Amusingly enough, the third time wasn’t lucky as it ended in a brutal RKO by Orton, with Speed slamming his desk in reaction to it once again.

IShowSpeed had no trouble setting himself to become one of YouTube’s most famous faces after he was banned indefinitely from streaming on Twitch in December 2021. However, the streamer has found himself in hot water on numerous occasions since then. This includes being banned from Valorant for his sexist outburst towards a fellow player, then a community guideline strike from YouTube for streaming an adult Minecraft mod.

  • IShowSpeed shows off massive $10 million mansion – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed shows off massive $10 million mansion YouTube: Live SpeedyYouTube star IShowSpeed wowed fans after showing off his new $10 million home, joining the echelon of other content creators who have purchased their own massive mansions. IShowSpeed is one of the most popular streamers on the net. After getting handed a permanent ban from Twitch in December 2021, Speed made a home for himself on YouTube, where he’s been broadcasting ever since. In the years following his now-reversed Twitch ban, Speed has become one of the most-viewed streamers on YouTube. Thanks to his over-the-top stunts and larger-than-life personality, he’s raking in the followers and the dough. In fact, Speed got to show off the fruits of his labor on November 16, when he gave fans a tour of his new mansion — a home worth millions of dollars. IShowSpeed flexes new $10 million mansion First, Speed showed off his spacious bedroom, complete with two massive walk-in closets that hadn’t yet been filled up, as he’s still moving in. Then, he took fans into his bathroom. The room was equally spacious, with a tub on one side and a shower on the other, both connected by the same wall. The living room was just as impressive, boasting a spiral staircase, a huge living space, a wine cellar, and even an office tucked away in the back corner. Of course, Speed’s house wouldn’t be complete without its own gym — nor its own pool, which he jumped into with a backflip at his fans’ request. According to Speed, the home is worth $10 million. Fans are giving Speed their congrats in the wake of this latest massive achievement for the streamer. Speed is far from the only content creator who could get his own episode of MTV Cribs, though. Recently, Jake Paul took fans on a tour of his $16M mansion in Puerto Rico — which happens to be right next door to his big bro’s house, who coincidentally bought a 66 million-year-old triceratops skull because, you know, why not.

    iShowSpeed responds to accusations over “racist” comments during World Cup stream Twitter: upblissedControversial YouTuber iShowSpeed has drawn backlash for his “racist” comments during a live stream at the World Cup. A well-known fan of soccer and his favorite player Cristiano Ronaldo, Speed had been at the center of controversy last month when he travelled to see Ronaldo’s club Manchester United play. Sky Sports decided to interview the rising YouTuber ahead of one of the matches, but later deleted all footage of the interviews after learning of Speed’s controversial past comments. Speed later responded to the deletion of the videos, saying he understood that he needed to set a better example for his fans and resolved to continue to improve himself. But many fans and observers are questioning that now after the latest incident on his livestream at the World Cup has gone viral. iShowSpeed goes viral for “racist” comments at World Cup Speed travelled to Qatar for the 2022 World Cup to take in a game of Ronaldo’s country, Portugal. Naturally, he decided to livestream the event. However, the stream ended in disaster because of technical issues with Speed’s phone. However, a clip has begun to surface online that shows Speed confronting a Chinese fan wearing an Argentina jersey. The fan appears confused at the question of why he is wearing the jersey, so Speed responds several times with the Japanese greeting “konnichiwa,” despite the fact that the fan repeatedly insists that he is Chinese. Immediately, commentors began to express their outrage at Speed’s insensitive comments. Several called it outright racist. iShowSpeed responds to accusations Speed has since responded in a video, saying that he genuinely believed the fan was Japanese initially, and then tried to respond to the man with “a nickname they call me in China.” He assured fans and viewers that he did not mean the statement to be racist and attributed his attitude to the heat of the moment during a stream with the match still going on.

  • IShowSpeed screams with horror after trying Kylie Jenner lip challenge – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed screams with horror after trying Kylie Jenner lip challenge YouTube: IShowSpeedPopular YouTube star IShowSpeed decided to have a try at the Kylie Jenner lip challenge during his livestream with disastrous results. It was hard to escape the hashtag ‘#KylieJennerChallenge’ back in 2015 as young people from across the world attempted the bizarre hack to get the same plumped lips as the ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star. However, with the method producing some shocking results, medical experts and even Kylie herself warned against the lip challenge, encouraging fans to embrace their natural beauty. Seven years later, the trend has thankfully died away now. Although, that didn’t stop IShowSpeed from wanting to have a go. As always, do not try this at home. IShowSpeed tries Kylie Jenner lip challenge for first time On September 7, IShowSpeed uploaded a clip from his livestream in which he attempted the Kylie Jenner lip challenge. As the method instructs, he put a small glass around his lips and started to suck it so it stayed in place for a whopping 15 minutes. As he removed the glass, he was horrified to find that his lips had swollen up to an enormous size and that he couldn’t stop dribbling causing him to start screaming with terror: “What the f**k! What just happened to my lips?” After his viewers mistakenly informed him that the change was “permanent” he claimed: “I just ruined my life doing this stupid a** challenge […] what do I do?” This certainly isn’t the first time that Speed has pulled off some shocking stunts during his livestreams. The streamer also set off a Pikachu firework in his room and was subsequently banned from a theme park after livestreaming on a roller-coaster. However, Speed breathed a sigh of relief after finding out from his friend that the effects weren’t permanent and would likely go away after a few days.

After being banned from Twitch in 2021, Speed has gone on to accrue 18 million subscribers on YouTube, where he streams on a regular basis to the tune of hundreds of thousands of viewers. Speed’s bombastic presence on the website has made him one of YouTube’s top streamers, where he dominated alongside fellow broadcaster Dr Disrespect in 2022. In 2023, his career is getting even bigger and better. Earlier this year, he and Twitch star Kai Cenat signed a deal with Rumble, scoring their very own live-streamed show on the platform called the ‘Kai ‘N Speed Show.’ IShowSpeed shocks fans after performing at Rolling Loud Things are only going up for Speed, as it was revealed the streamer was set to perform at Rolling Loud in Portugal back in June. On July 7, Speed finally appeared onstage, leading crowds in the chorus for his song ‘World Cup.’ Fans were obviously hyped by Speed’s performance at the hip hop music festival, with multiple crowd shots showing attendees jumping up and down in excitement. However, some netizens thought they heard crowds ‘booing’ Speed during his performance. Those claims have been dismissed, as Speed’s fans were instead saying ‘Siu,’ a chant that’s become synonymous with Speed’s idol, football star Cristiano Ronaldo. The term means ‘yes,’ in Portuguese. Speed also made sure to live stream his time at Rolling Loud on YouTube, which fans can watch as a 32-minute VOD. This marks yet another major moment in Speed’s career as a streaming superstar after he finally met Cristiano Ronaldo after years of being his biggest fan in June.

  • IShowSpeed says KSI is making “excuses” not to box him – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed says KSI is making “excuses” not to box him YouTube: IShowSpeed, JJ OlatunjiYouTube star IShowSpeed has revealed that he begged KSI to fight him in a boxing match… but his British counterpart wasn’t too enthusiastic about the idea. KSI is one of the leading names in the influencer-boxing game. First kicking off the trend with his fight against Logan Paul in 2018, KSI has officially stepped back into the ring after taking a lengthy break to focus on his music career. However, the YouTuber has publicly stated that he plans on officially retiring from boxing after taking on three more fighters this year. With this in mind, it seems like he’s had no shortage of challengers hoping to take him for a turn… including IShowSpeed. IShowSpeed is one of YouTube’s top streamers, and one of KSI’s buddies. The two notably interacted during the Sidemen charity football match back in 2022, and have since fostered a friendly rivalry with each other. IShowSpeed says KSI is ducking a boxing match with him It looks like Speed is hoping to take on KSI in the boxing ring instead of the football pitch, though. The YouTuber spoke out about his friend during a recent broadcast, where he revealed that he’d practically begged KSI for a boxing match. “It was a couple months back,” he explained. “I was like, ‘Bro,’ — [it was a] private conversation. I was like, ‘Bro, like seriously, box me. Like, come on, bro. Let’s get it right.’” “He’s like, ‘Nah bruv,’” he continued, imitating KSI’s British accent. “‘Nah, bruv, I can’t do that. …we’re different weights.’ Like, he made up every excuse, every excuse in the book, I swear on my life.” This isn’t the first time these two have bandied about the idea of a possible boxing match. Last year, fans paired up the YouTubers for a bout, but KSI was adamant that he’d “decimate” his younger opponent before brushing him off due to their different weight classes and ages. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like IShowSpeed vs KSI will happen anytime soon, if ever, as the Brit prepares for his upcoming bout against pro boxer Joe Fournier in May.

Known primarily for some of his wild antics and obsession with Cristiano Ronaldo, Speed has skyrocketed in growth, now amassing over 20 million subscribers to date. From setting fireworks off in his room, and almost burning down his entire house in the process, to meeting some of the world’s biggest stars including Drake, Neymar, and even his idol Cristiano Ronaldo, there’s no telling what you may see from him on any given day. In his live stream on October 3, Speed tried a science experiment in his own bedroom. The YouTube star attempted to make ‘devils toothpaste’ — which involves mixing Hydrogen Peroxide, yeast and dish soap to create a chemical reaction. However, it’s fair to say the experiment went horribly wrong, resulting in Speed struggling to breathe as smoke sfilled his room. Firefighters were called to his home, where according to a message in his chat from his own account, Speed was struggling to breathe and was receiving oxygen. “Speed is currently with the firefighters, they’re giving him oxygen so he can breathe, he should be fine guys,” the message read. Shortly after, Speed’s cameraman ‘slipz’ appeared on the broadcast to give an update. “He was in here too long bro, he’s like struggling to breathe,” said his cameraman. “We’ve got f**king firefighters and sh*t outside trying to help him. I don’t know what’s happening.” Thankfully, nothing too serious came of the situation, as according to his cameraman the YouTuber is now fine and well.

Speed revealed that he was diagnosed with having a cluster headache at the time, a severe headache that, while painful, is meant to go away after a short time.

In the minute-long video, he had a hard time holding his phone up and appeared to have dropped it while filming. The YouTuber claimed that it feels like someone is “stabbing my eye with a knife” and that he still has a severe headache. One of Speed’s eyes is entirely swollen shut, rendering him unable to see out of it. He also had a loose wrapping around his head, making it unclear if the swelling spreads up to his forehead or not. Speed has since given another update and, after going to multiple doctors, it’s been revealed that he had a serious sinus infection. According to slipper, a friend that’s in Tokyo with him, Speed could have permanently lost vision in that eye if things went differently. Speed has since been released from the hospital and, though his eye is still swollen, he’s going to be alright. Slipper went out of his way to thank Japan for the “amazing healthcare” in Tokyo. Speed said in his original video that he’s going to chill on travel a bit after this incident and give himself some time to rest and recover.

And I’m not trolling, bro. I’m being deadass. I swear on my life, bro. It was that freaking bad, bro.” Speed even claimed he had to undergo a spinal tap as part of his treatment and described his head pain as if he were being “stabbed” with a knife behind his eye. “I literally had the worst-ever sinus infection,” he continued. “It got super, super bad. And the sinus infection was causing cluster headaches. …I pray none of y’all in the chat experience a cluster headache. It feels like somebody has a knife with your eye and are stabbing it from the back of your eye.” “That’s the one that almost killed me. That’s the one that almost got me. …I went through so much. I’m still healing.” Fans were quick to send their well-wishes to Speed as he continues to heal from the infection.

IShowSpeed has been traveling the world as part of his IRL broadcasts, with the YouTuber now bringing his antics all the way to India. Despite YouTube terminating one of his IRL India streams for “policy violations,” the creator has remained in the country and kept on streaming – but his most recent broadcast was not without some drama. While filming some content, checking out Orangutan esports, and meeting up with Indian creators, things went off the rails when a snake introduced by YouTube duo Slayy Point suddenly bit Speed. IShowSpeed panics after snake bites him on stream The hijinks started when Speed lost his cool after an iguana was placed on his shoulder and began moving about. The streamer started to panic, and seemingly upset a snake by screaming so loud. As his fellow YouTubers tried to get the iguana off him, the snake they were also carrying reared back and bit the streamer on the leg. “He bit me! He f**king bit me!” IShowSpeed roared. “I swear to God, he bit me! I’m about to die, bro!” Speed, along with the crew, then watched a replay of his freak-out; and sure enough, the snake did in fact bite the YouTuber, who lost his cool yet again. This time, however, Speed began taking his clothes off in a panic, dropping his pants around his ankles before joking it was time for him to go. However, he would return, proving that he wasn’t injured as a result of the bite. Footage of the incident exploded on social media, with the viral clip being viewed nearly 9 million times since being posted by SpeedUpdates.

    IShowSpeed reveals he’s moving out to content house as Adin Ross is making his own YouTube: Live SpeedyStreaming star IShowSpeed has teased that he’s joining a content house with other creators after announcing that he is finally moving out of his mom’s house. Over the last year or two, IShowSpeed has risen up the ranks of the streaming world as one of the biggest streamers out there. He mixes his content between IRL – typically him going to an event, game of football, or playing himself – and sitting behind his computer. The latter of which has always been done at his mom’s house, unless he’s on his travels, of course. Most recently, he broke the massive 20 million subscriber milestone on YouTube and celebrated in the only way that suits him – diving head-first into his setup and completely ruining the stream. Though, it appears as if that was the start of a bit of an end-of-era type celebration, given he’s now announced he’s flying the nest and moving out. IShowSpeed teases joining content house That’s right, during his August 31 stream, Speed announced that he’s finally moving out of his mom’s house and has already found another place to live. “So, chat, I will officially, for the first time in my life, I will be moving out of my mothers and I will be living on my own,” he said. “It’s happening very, very soon. Very, very, very soon.” Speed noted that he isn’t actually going to be living by himself and he is moving in with some people. Though, he kept that a secret by covering his mouth as he teased some potential roommates. His announcement comes off the back of Sneako revealing that Adin Ross is looking to start his own house, and given Speed’s links to Adin, it didn’t take long for some fans to speculate that’s where he’s going. It remains to be seen if that’ll be the case, however, or if he’ll be heading elsewhere.

Speed also thanked the FA for inviting him to watch the game, as well as praising the security at the stadium for looking after him. “What happened today ain’t cool, but I’m able to forgive,” he wrote, alongside sharing a photo of him posted up next to the stranger. “We cool. Big love to the FA and Wembley security for looking after me. He added: “Insane atmosphere today. Manchester till I die.” The tweet has since amassed close to 60k likes at the time of writing, with fans reacting by applauding Speed for handling the situation well. “Good stuff for handling it well, love to see the security doing his job too,” one fan wrote. “Happy to see you at least meet up with the person,” another added.

  • IShowSpeed rages at viewers reposting viral wardrobe malfunction – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed rages at viewers reposting viral wardrobe malfunction YouTube/IShowSpeedPopular YouTuber IShowSpeed lost his cool during a recent stream where he addressed his viral wardrobe malfunction. IShowSpeed blew up the internet on August 16 when he accidentally flashed the world after getting a bit too excited during a YouTube broadcast. Footage of the unfortunate incident spread across social media, with viewers worldwide getting a blinding glimpse of the YouTuber when he exposed himself. While Speed wasn’t banned by YouTube, he is sick of hearing about his wardrobe malfunction and let his viewers know how he really feels. IShowSpeed freaks out discussing flashing incident on stream During an August 18 broadcast two days after the unfortunate incident, Speed laid into viewers who had been reposting the video on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Like bro, how the fk would you f**king feel motherf**ker?” he exploded, standing up. “How the fk would you feel?” Fully standing, Speed continued to repeat the question in an effort to drive his point home, screaming at the top of his lungs. “How would you feel? Just because you didn’t have any clean f**king underwear? You had no clean underwear so you put on some goddamn pants! How would you feel?!” he roared. By now, Speed’s chat spammed messages telling him to chill out, but the YouTuber wasn’t having any of it, continuing to scream and shout and let it all out. “I’m sick of f**king chilling! You can’t chill! Don’t tell me to calm down. Every time I open up my phone…” he continued, finally appearing to relax a touch. IShowSpeed says he’s been “suffering mentally” due to viral wardrobe malfunction IShowSpeed also opened up about his mental health following the viral incident, claiming he’s been “suffering” due to people constantly reposting the clip to social media. “This is truly an embarrassing f*cking moment for me,” the streamer said. “And lately, these past hours, I’ve been suffering mentally. At the end of the day, I’m still a human being, bro. As a streamer, this is one of your worst fears.” “It’s depressing, bro,” he continued. “You guys don’t know the feeling, bro. You guys are joking, you guys can crack your jokes, all of this, all of that. But y’all genuinely are not looking at the bigger picture.” There’s no doubt that this is a challenging time in the young streamer’s life, but he’s not the only one who has had a wardrobe malfunction during a broadcast. Last year, Pokimane accidentally revealed a bit too much, and before that, a similar thing happened to Amouranth when she rolled around while playing with her dogs on Twitch.

  • IShowSpeed recreates famous Cristiano Ronaldo undercover video in Madrid – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed recreates famous Cristiano Ronaldo undercover video in Madrid YouTube streamer IShowSpeed showed off his football skills on the streets of Madrid while undercover, recreating Cristiano Ronaldo’s viral video. Anyone familar with IShowSpeed will know about his craze over Cristiano Ronaldo, going as far as getting a tattoo of his face and recently wrapping his brand-new Lamborghini Huracan inspired by the footballer. In a YouTube video on June 3 titled ‘iShowSpeed IN DISGUISE’, the 19-year-old recreated a viral video from his idol. During the video, the streamer disguised himself with a fake beard, afro, and a bit of weight around the waist, before heading out on the streets of Madrid to show off his ball skills to the public. Similarly, in 2015, Ronaldo disguised himself as a street busker. Nobody suspected that the world’s highest paid athlete was among them, or even paid much attention to him for that matter while he showed off his ball tricks. But, one youngster passing by took his time to have a quick play around with the ball, completely clueless that he was playing with one of the sport’s greatest players. The Portuguese star then revealed his identity, and was quickly bombarded by the same people that just overlooked him. The video went viral across YouTube with over 70 million views at the time of writing. In IShowSpeed’s case, his skills with the ball were nowhere near as impressive, but he still made a huge scene after revealing his identity, as fans swarmed him in an attempt to get photos. Speed luckily got the chance to meet Ronaldo after numerous failed attempts at trying to get close to him. The 19-year-old has quickly become a top dog in the streaming world thanks to his non-stop grind, which is certainly paying off as he continues to go viral for the most bizarre reasons.

  • IShowSpeed ‘punched’ KSI during Sidemen Charity Match but stream missed it – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed ‘punched’ KSI during Sidemen Charity Match but stream missed it Twitter: Misfits BoxingIShowSpeed actually landed a punch on KSI during the Sidemen Charity Match, but people probably missed it as it wasn’t shown on the stream. The Sidemen Charity Match has been getting bigger and bigger every year, as it has now become one of the most highly-anticipated annual events on the YouTube calendar. This year’s installment, played in front of 62,000 at West Ham’s London Stadium, was the biggest to date in terms of crowd size as well as viewers on the stream. 2.6 million fans tuned in to watch The Sidemen run out 8-5 winners against the YouTube All-Stars in an action-packed game that was full of hijinx. However, the majority of that viewing audience probably missed a pretty funny moment when IShowSpeed landed a punch on KSI’s back just moments before the British YouTube star saved his penalty. IShowSpeed ‘punched’ KSI during Sidemen Charity Match That’s right, if you didn’t manage to catch the game as it happened on Saturday, September 9, KSi got a big set of bragging rights over Speed as he managed to keep him from scoring. Speed’s best chance came from the penalty spot, however, just after it was awarded by referee Mark Clattenburg, there was a classic bit of pushing and pulling from players. Speed, Kai Cenat, and Chunkz all surrounded a furious KSI, and the lot of them squared up as if they wanted to fight. It appeared to be fun and games for the most part – especially as Kai threw a hilarious jumping kick at no one – but Speed did manage to land a small punch on KSI’s back in the midst of it. At the time, the stream had cut to the referee’s chest cam, so the actual broadcast didn’t show it. Though, one fan – quantumcaza – managed to capture the not-so-hurtful punch in an Instagram story. The clip has now racked up over 9 million views online. The glancing punch definitely isn’t the worst one that KSI has ever taken, especially given that he’s in the middle of an intense training camp ahead of his October 14 fight with Tommy Fury. If it even registered for him is unknown, but they were clearly all made up by full-time as the content creators all posed for photos with one another to celebrate the day.

  • IShowSpeed rages after claiming OmeTV banned him for being “ugly” – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed rages after claiming OmeTV banned him for being “ugly” IShowSpeed / OmeTVIShowSpeed was left enraged following multiple bans from the video chat platform OmeTV after he claimed the reason for the ban was that he was too “ugly.” IShowSpeed had taken a few short hiatuses following a series of dramatic events involving having to be rushed to hospital due to illness and an infamous wardrobe malfunction that became the talk of the internet. The YouTube star has since hit 20 million subscribers, where he has returned to regular streaming as one of the top creators. During his broadcast on August 30, the 18-year-old watched viral TikToks with his fans and played FIFA, before heading to the video chat platform OmeTV, an equivalent of Omegle. However, shortly after interacting with various strangers on the site for his viewer’s entertainment, OmeTV banned IShowSpeed. IShowSpeed rages after OmeTV bans him twice in one stream The streamer is seen clicking ‘next’ in order to video chat with another person on the platform, although instead, an abrupt message appears stating “You have been banned from chat.” OmeTV provided the reason of an “irrelevant image” which is shown with the photo in question of a close-up shot of IShowSpeed pulling a goofy facial expression. He automatically reacts by raging to his viewers. “They just banned me because of my face? Am I that ugly? Am I that f**king ugly?!” he said. Despite the YouTube star unbanning himself by paying a small fee, he was soon banned again as he became enraged once more. “I am f**king done! They banned me again just because of my face! I am not that damn ugly!.” IShowSpeed exclaimed. After rage quitting the video chat site, he decided to play Roblox which he had previously been taunted by kids on following his accidental flash.

  • IShowSpeed mobbed by fans during IRL stream in Scotland – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed mobbed by fans during IRL stream in Scotland YouTube: Speedy BoykinsA massive crowd of IShowSpeed’s fans chased the famous streamer and even jumped on his car during a tense IRL stream in Scotland. IShowSpeed is one of the net’s most popular broadcasters, boasting 27 million combined followers across his three YouTube channels. Speed’s popularity has only increased after he received a permanent ban from Twitch in late 2021. He moved to YouTube shortly thereafter, where he now streams regularly to the tune of hundreds of thousands of viewers. Earlier this year, Speed also signed a deal with streaming platform Rumble, where he and fellow streamer Kai Cenat now have their very own show called the ‘Kai ‘N Speed Show.’ Fans surround & jump on IShowSpeed’s car during IRL Scotland stream However, Speed’s fame as an online broadcaster resulted in a fairly tense moment as the streamer made his way to Scotland, which he steamed live for his fans. During the stream, fans picked up on where Speed was located, resulting in a mob of viewers rushing toward him and the vehicle he was in. The crowd of fans began hitting on the car’s windows — and a few even jumped on top of it as it drove down the street. “Yo, Scotland’s hella f*ckin’ lit man, holy sh*tballs!” Speed exclaimed. “Look at f*ckin’ Scotland!” Of course, Speed couldn’t resist barking at one of his viewers through the window in an attempt to get them to back off. “Careful, they’re on the car,” a passenger in the vehicle can be heard saying. “They’re on the f*ckin’ car!” Speed repeated. “Oh my god. Holy sh*t.” This moment rings eerily similar to another incident that happened in early August when Kai Cenat was arrested for inciting a riot after a fan meetup in New York City went sideways. Thousands of people swarmed Union Square, where the streamer was located, and the ordeal even made national news. Kai has since denounced the rioters, saying he was “beyond disappointed in anybody who became disruptive that day.” Luckily, it doesn’t look like Speed’s situation escalated to that level. The streamer has yet to offer further comment on the ordeal at the time of writing, but has uploaded several other clips from his viral Scotland stream.

  • iShowSpeed ‘kidnapping’ prankster reveals guns were almost used by gang members – Exclusive – Dexerto

    iShowSpeed ‘kidnapping’ prankster reveals guns were almost used by gang members – Exclusive YouTube/IShowSpeedPopular YouTuber IShowSpeed was left fearing for his life after being “kidnapped” by gang members in Brazil, but it was all a prank orchestrated by fellow content creator ‘Arab.’ YouTube pranks can often get out of control, especially with the amount of money available to them to really go all-out on crafting a scary scenario and that’s exactly what happened to IShowSpeed. During a trip to Brazil, Speed was live-streaming while walking through districts when he was suddenly confronted by gang members holding weapons who grabbed onto the YouTuber scaring the daylights out of him. However, the ordeal was just a prank by Arab who began dancing and chanting with the gang shortly thereafter. Arab reveals he wanted to prank IShowSpeed with guns Arab, who frequents dangerous places as part of his YouTube content revealed to Dexerto how he planned out this nefarious prank. It turns out the prankster had an even crazier plan in mind if Speed was on Kick instead of YouTube. According to the YouTuber, he originally wanted to prank Speed with guns and more lethal weapons, but didn’t want to get in trouble with the platform. “Because it was a YouTube and not a Kick stream, they would have allowed that, we told them to do it with no weapons, just baseball bats and stuff,” he said. While Speed hasn’t forgiven Arab yet, the YouTuber believes that he’ll accept it because of the views it’ll help generate. “I knew it would go viral,” he added. “As for the gang members, I believe it’s a sign that when you come in and show respect and you approve these people can be humane, a lot of the time their fights are with each other,” he explained. “Don’t get me wrong, these guys can do bad things, it’s part of being somewhere lawless, but people need to stop being afraid of these places.” Arab’s content is some of the wildest on YouTube with the creator frequenting some of the Earth’s scariest locations. In his most recent series, he was living with the Mexican cartel and even interviewed a hitman. For more viral entertainment news, keep it locked to Dexerto.

    IShowSpeed meets Kim Kardashian & asks classic Messi vs Ronaldo question Instagram: ishowspeedYouTube star IShowSpeed met up with Kim Kardashian at a PSG vs. Al-Nassr game and asked her who her favorite footballer was: Messi or Ronaldo? IShowSpeed is one of YouTube’s most prominent streamers, having dominated viewership on the platform in 2022 alongside other big names like DrDisrespect. Speed is known for his wild on-stream hijinks; anything from setting off live fireworks in his bedroom to accidentally leaking his own location just to get mobbed by fans has attracted the eyes of hundreds of thousands of viewers. However, it’s also no secret that Speed is also well-known for his love of football. The streamer finally got to meet his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, in June — and now, he’s met another major star at another football game. IShowSpeed meets Kim Kardashian and her son Saint On July 25, Speed was attending a game between the PSG and Al-Nassr when he spotted the one and only Kim Kardashian sitting in the stands with her seven-year-old son, Saint. Of course, Speed had to introduce himself and had a friendly conversation with the kiddo before asking him who his favorite footballer was: Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo? Saint answered “Ronaldo” before Speed turned his attention to Kim and hit her with the same question. “Kim, what about you — Messi or Ronaldo?” he asked. After taking a moment to consider her answer, Kim finally replied: “Both.” “Both?” an incredulous Speed shot back. “Ronaldo’s better!” Speed ended the humorous conversation with a hug for Saint and snapped a few pics with the famous family before returning to his seat. Of course, it looks like Speed was totally jazzed to meet Kim Kardashian at a football game — even if she holds both Messi and Ronaldo in high regard. This isn’t the first time Kim K has been spotted rubbing shoulders with influencers at football matches; back in March, she shocked YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul after snapping a pic of their PRIME Hydration sports drink at a Europa League match and putting it on her Instagram.

  • IShowSpeed meets Ronaldo again but fans totally roast them for it – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed meets Ronaldo again but fans totally roast them for it TikTok: SoccerKingJPStreaming star iShowSpeed has, once again, gotten to speak to Cristiano Ronaldo and the Footballing icons teammates couldn’t help but laugh at it all. Ever since iShowSpeed burst onto the streaming scenes, he’s nailed his colors to the mast in the never-ending Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi debate. The YouTube star is an ardent Ronaldo fanboy – typically wearing a CR7 shirt on stream and even owning one of the rarest pair of shoes with his brand on it. Speed has had a little wobble recently, getting behind Messi during his debut for Inter Miami, but he still maintains his allegiance to Ronaldo – especially after getting to meet him. He’s even traveled out to Japan to watch the Portuguese forward in action and managed to have another interaction with him. Though, it didn’t go as swimmingly as the first time they met. Speed meets Ronaldo again in Japan for Al Nassr vs PSG As noted, the streaming star was in Osaka, Japan for the Al Nassr vs PSG friendly match where he also got to meet Kim Kardashian and asked her about the Messi vs Ronaldo debate. On top of that, he got close to Ronaldo during a training session, as the Portuguese legend was working on some stationary bikes with teammates. “Do a suii, Ronaldo,” Speed can be heard shouting from the stands. He managed to get a response from the -year-old, as he gave Speed a thumbs up. That only encouraged Speed to keep shouting. While Ronaldo didn’t respond any further, his teammates – Marcelo Brozovic and Anderson Talisca – both broke into laughter as Speed turned his attention to them. Ronaldo saw the funny side of it at another point, laughing as his Brozovic and Talisca responded to Speed, but he didn’t the streamer any further looks. That was something viewers were quick to point out. “Bro is already fed up with Speed,” said one viewer. “Ronaldo thinking he might have to get a restraining order,” added another. “Ronaldo tried hard not to show Speed he was laughing,” commented another. Who knows, the pair might link up again at some point in the future seeing as Speed is still keen to travel to his games.

  • IShowSpeed loses it after trying Prime Hydration for the first time – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed loses it after trying Prime Hydration for the first time YouTube: IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed absolutely lost his mind after trying Prime Hydration for the very first time. KSI and Logan Paul’s Prime Hydration has quickly taken the world by storm, with bottles flying off the shelves at an absurd rate since its release in early 2022. While many have scattered to get their hands on the beverage, YouTuber IShowSpeed was yet to try it until his September 29 broadcast. Speed freaks out after trying Prime Hydration Trying it for the first time, it’s fair to say the 18-year-old lost it, and called British YouTube Chunkz for advice. “Ay Chunkz bro, I got a question, have you ever tried Prime? Like the Prime drink. Bro that sh*t f**king with me right now, I don’t know what the f**k is going on,” Speed said. Baffled by what the streamer was saying, Chunkz asked him to elaborate. “That sh*t f**king with me bro, that Prime sh*t f**king with me. It’s f**king with me right now,” Speed repeated. “Chunkz, help me the f**k out. Chunkz I’m not f**king playing. That Prime sh*t f**king with me.” He added: “Like I’m feeling weird like I’m doing things I don’t normally do on a daily basis. That’s what’s going on.” Asking Speed which flavor he tried, the streamer revealed he tried the Blue Raspberry bottle, where Chunkz told him he needed to seek medical help immediately. “The blue one is the dangerous one bro. You have to go to the hospital immediately,” he said. While freaking out, Speed hung up the phone, and immediately proceeded to dial ‘911’ as instructed by Chunkz, where he requested an ambulance. Although it was clear he didn’t actual call the actual emergency services.

IShowSpeed is one of the most popular streamers in the world. Making a name for himself with his crazy antics, such as almost burning his house down by setting off fireworks indoors, Speed has become one of the most-viewed streamers on YouTube. Others may know him for his huge obsession with Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he’d finally come to meet in 2023 after years of trying. Nevertheless, in a recent broadcast, the streamer went into a full-blown meltdown after his younger brother got his PlayStation account banned. IShowSpeed furious after younger brother get his PlayStation account banned In a January 16 live stream that has since been deleted, Speed received an email notifying him that his PlayStation account had been for three days for being inappropriate while playing the game LittleBigPlanet. At first, the YouTuber was baffled, not even unaware of what the game was. However, upon a quick Google search, Speed quickly realized that his younger brother was likely the culprit. “It’s my f**cking brother bro,” he said. “I’m about to call my brother. My f**cking brother got my account banned. I don’t play that sh*t. What the f*ck is this? I’ve never in my life played LittleBigPlanet.” As it turns out he was right, with his younger brother Dian admitting that he used Speed’s account. “Oh my bad bro, I’m so sorry,” he said on the phone. However, Speed was still furious nonetheless. “Why the f*ck. Bro, I don’t even know, why are you playing this on my account. You’ve got your own.” “I’m banned, for three days,” Speed shouted. Thankfully, the ban isn’t permanent and instead is only a temporary suspension from the PlayStation network. Although, it’s fair to say the streamer is still furious with his sibling.

  • IShowSpeed leaks Ninja’s celebrity-filled Discord causing him to delete it – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed leaks Ninja’s celebrity-filled Discord causing him to delete it Instagram: ishowspeed / YouTube: NinjaIShowSpeed accidentally leaked Ninja’s private Discord server filled with major streamers and even A-List celebrities, forcing the Fortnite star to “nuke” the channel. Fortnite OG is finally out in the wild, bringing back fan-favorite elements of the beloved battle royale game for both old-school players and total newbies, alike. To celebrate, prominent YouTube streamer IShowSpeed linked up with Fortnite star Ninja and a slew of other major broadcasters to give the new season a shot — but it looks like things got more chaotic than they anticipated. Between the action in-game and hilarious hijinks happening on-stream, it looks like Speed accidentally leaked some private information that gave Ninja a bit of a headache. IShowSpeed causes celebrity mayhem after leaking Ninja’s private Discord During a stream on November 10, IShowSpeed accidentally leaked the invite link to Ninja’s private Discord server, which had quite a few celebrity names added to it. As told by Ninja, those included the likes of Drake, Travis Scott, Marshmello, and Juju, on top of “every professional Fortnite player you can imagine” and even “all of the top OG streamers.” “Oh my god, bro,” Speed said after watching Ninja explain the situation during his broadcast that same day. “Now I feel bad.” “I had to f*ckin’ nuke it,” Ninja said. “Because Speed leaked it. And then I look over, and it’s just a bunch of people posting **** pictures and *** photos.” It’s clear that Speed feels guilty for leaking the Discord server, and it’s unclear if Ninja will be able to recruit all of its previous members into a new one. However, this is far from the first time Speed has accidentally leaked sensitive information to his fans. In fact, the streamer has done this numerous times throughout his career, notably leaking his and Kai Cenat’s location during a stream in June, and even leaking YouTube star KSI’s phone number on Instagram in July 2022.

  • iShowSpeed loses it after finding out Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t win Ballon d’Or – Dexerto

    iShowSpeed loses it after finding out Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t win Ballon d’Or YouTube: iShowSpeedPopular streamer iShowSpeed couldn’t contain his frustration after he found out that Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t win the Ballon d’Or, a prestigious honor awarded to the best footballer of that year. Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most successful footballers in the sport’s history, and has been awarded the Ballon d’Or trophy five times — second only to Lionel Messi, who has won it seven times. That said, it wasn’t to be for Ronaldo in the 2022 ceremony, as he came in 20th, and Messi failed to even make the shortlist. The honor was instead bestowed upon Ronaldo’s former Real Madrid teammate Karim Benzema, much to Speed’s dismay, unable to understand how the Portuguese star had been unable to add a sixth “Dior” to his trophy cabinet. iShowSpeed blasts Karim Benzema following Ballon d’Or win Speed initially struggled to find the correct information he was looking for, surprised that a woman had won the award, having seen that Alexia Putellas had won the Ballon d’Or Féminin for the second consecutive season. Eventually, though, he noticed that he was looking at the wrong thing, and saw that Benzema won the Ballon d’Or, immediately questioning the decision. “No f**king way,” he said. “Benzema won the Dior [sic]. Are you f**king serious? Why didn’t Ronaldo win? How did Benzema win? He had one good season. Dior is all-around. Who should’ve really won a Dior is Ronaldo, and if they didn’t want Ronaldo, they could’ve picked Modric. Modric deserves the Dior. Why does Benzema score? Because of Modric, bro.” With Speed being a long-time Cristiano Ronaldo fan, it’s no surprise that he thinks Ronaldo should have at least been in the Ballon d’Or conversation, though most fans will admit that 2022 hasn’t been his finest year. With rumors that Ronaldo is seeking a way out for Manchester United, he could be hoping for a revival at another club in 2023, and Speed might be able to look forward to his big comeback at the Ballon d’Or in a year’s time.

  • IShowSpeed irate after KSI “lil bro’d” him during lopsided sparring match – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed irate after KSI “lil bro’d” him during lopsided sparring match YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed has revealed he’s not happy with how KSI forfeited their match, claiming he was “played” by the influencer-boxer in front of his own stream. In hopes of raising money for the Anthony Walker Foundation, YouTube streamer Darren ‘IShowSpeed’ Watkins Jr. faced off against Olajide Olayinka Williams ‘KSI’ Olatunji in the boxing ring last Friday on December 15. Despite having agreed to 6 rounds before the spar, KSI chose to tap out and forfeit his win after IShowSpeed appeared to be struggling halfway through the match. This resulted in the latter breaking down and demanding they continue — though to no avail. Now IShowSpeed has shared his thoughts, revealing he feels “played” and claiming KSI “lil bro’d him”. With IShowSpeed returning to YouTube streaming for the first time since the match, it didn’t take long before viewers in the chat were bringing up KSI’s control and dominance throughout the fight. “I just started my stream, I don’t want to hear this s***,” IShowSpeed exclaimed, before agreeing to address the fight after seeing the memes that had been made mocking his performance. “I was mad… I was like mad crying. I was mad because like, bro we agreed on 6 rounds, right?” the Youtuber began. “Obviously chat, I wasn’t winning that well… then KSI came over to me — he basically lil bro’d me. He f****** lil bro’d me in front of everybody. And I didn’t even have the chance to f****** stick up for myself.” “I didn’t have the chance to show my skills… he came over to me and said ‘You know what bro, let’s just stop,’” IShowSpeed continued. “He said this in front of the stream bro, he basically tried to play me. He basically played me in front of my own stream… I would’ve won that fight if it would have kept going.” He also revealed that although KSI had texted him after the match, IShowSpeed was “too mad” to respond, certain he would have “got some good shots in” if the fight had continued. Fans, however, were less convinced. “Bro you’re not a boxer, KSI has trained for a few years, and has had professional fights. What is there to be ashamed of?” one person wrote. Another said, “He didn’t lil bro you, stupid Even if he did, how is that a bad thing? … Comeback stronger let it be a lesson for you…. you were finished, your cardio isn’t there and you were taking too many shots to the solar plexus. You’ll get better, put in more work.” Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.

  • iShowSpeed kicked out of amusement park after live streaming on roller coaster – Dexerto

    iShowSpeed kicked out of amusement park after live streaming on roller coaster YouTube: Live SpeedyPopular YouTuber Darren ‘iShowSpeed’ Watkins Jr. was kicked out of an amusement park after streaming on a roller coaster — and he caught the entire ordeal on camera. iShowSpeed has made quite a name for himself over the past few months as one of the most controversial up-and-coming streamers. Speed currently boasts over 8.6 million subscribers on his main YouTube channel — but this wasn’t always the case. In fact, he first sparked attention last year after soaring from 500,000 to 1.5 million subs in just a week’s time. However, his success was eclipsed several months later by receiving permanent bans from both Twitch and Valorant after he made sexist remarks toward a female player during a live broadcast. While Speed has since apologized for the matter and continues to make waves on YouTube, he’s received yet another ban recently… But this time, the ban is from a real-life locale. Video footage from the incident, taken by Speed, shows the YouTuber enjoying a rollercoaster at what appears to be at King’s Island in Ohio. When the ride stops in a tunnel, Speed shouts at the other passengers: “Shut the f**k up! Everybody on this ride, shut the f**k up! For the love of God!” View this post on Instagram However, it wasn’t this outburst (likely all in good fun, as it seems he was joined by friends and fans on the ride) that resulted in his ban from the theme park. “I don’t get a warning, nothing like that?” Speed can be heard saying as he speaks with a park attendant in his video. “You gotta go,” the worker replies. “…anyone who records on the ride, it’s an automatic rejection.” The worker went on to explain that Speed may have dropped his recording equipment, which had taken him on the ride — something that could have resulted in serious injuries to others on the roller coaster or walking below. It looks like Speed won’t be able to stream on roller coasters at this particular location, and it’s unclear whether his ban from the park was permanent or not.

  • iShowSpeed in disbelief as his PC gets ‘hacked’ live on stream – Dexerto

    iShowSpeed in disbelief as his PC gets ‘hacked’ live on stream YT: iShowSpeedYouTube streamer iShowSpeed let his PC get ‘hacked’ while broadcasting in a clip so bizarre and hilarious it could only come from the American 17-year-old. iShowSpeed, despite his youth and relative newness in the world of content creation and live streaming, has rapidly become one of the internet’s biggest names. A whirlwind last few months has seen him steal headlines in the Sidemen’s immensely successful charity football match and now collab with YouTube giant Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson. OG fans of the streamer will know him best for his explosive and unpredictable stream moments, though. There was the time he was left horrified by the Kylie Jenner lip challenge or when he was scarily swatted and handcuffed. This most recent moment, from October 6, may just take the cake. iShowSpeed PC ‘hacked’ live on stream After a couple of hours live-streaming FIFA 23 and GTA V, Speed went to download a “very scary” game, describing it as from the “illegal crypto dark web sh*t”. Egged on by viewers, he ignored multiple warnings from his PC that the files he was downloading were dangerous. “The application may cause damage to your device,” he read, from his PC’s ‘malicious file’ warning. “I don’t care run [it] anway I’m Speed baby. Warning you have ran a Trojan known as Monoxide. This has full capacity to delete all your data.” After reading the full warning, Speed declared “I’m not no punk… I’m not a bitch” and continued, leading to hilarious carnage. His PC screen was instantly overrun with visual glitches and became completely unusable. Somehow surprised at the outcome, Speed went on: “Oh f**k no no no. What did I do bro? No.” When egregiously loud distortion sound began playing, Speed lost his cool altogether and started lamenting the state of his PC. Needless to say, viewers had little sympathy for the star after he had ignored multiple warnings from the computer and chat alike. The stream ended just minutes later with Speed whipping out his phone to call the police, before a baffled operator asked what he was supposed to do about the situation. Just another day on the internet.

    IShowSpeed in tears after reaching massive YouTube milestone in hospital YouTube: IShowSpeedIShowSpeed got emotional after reaching 19 million subscribers on YouTube in a heartwarming stream as he recovered from an intense sinus infection in the hospital. IShowSpeed is one of YouTube’s biggest streamers, dominating viewership throughout 2022 alongside fellow broadcaster Dr Disrespect. Like other influencers, follower count is important to Speed, and he was gearing up to hit 19 million subscribers on August 3, 2023, just two years after officially migrating to YouTube from Twitch in 2021. However, this wasn’t a normal milestone for the streamer. At the end of July, Speed was rushed to the hospital during his stay in Japan after he experienced an extremely painful cluster headache. It was later revealed that Speed was experiencing a severe sinus infection — one that resulted in the swelling of his right eye. According to one of the streamer’s friends, he could have lost that eye had he not received urgent medical attention. IShowSpeed cries after reaching19M subs in heartwarming YouTube stream Speed is still recovering in the hospital, but his fanbase is helping him weather the storm. Speed was poised to reach 19 million subscribers and kicked off a live stream to celebrate the moment. “I didn’t wanna miss this moment with y’all boys,” he said. “I’m still hospitalized, as you can see, but I didn’t wanna miss this moment with y’all. I know I’m still sick, I know a lot is still going on. But chat, how could I miss this lovely moment with y’all boys?” Unfortunately for him, his fans decided to seemingly troll the streamer and mass-unsubscribed from his channel right as he was about to hit 19 million subs. Speed was a bit frustrated at this, and ended up having to rest his eyes as a result of the supposed stress, saying he might need a nurse to help him with the pain. Luckily, he managed to reach the milestone in the end in a heartwarming moment that left the YouTuber in tears. His channel now boasts 19 million subscribers — marking the start of a new era for the streamer as he continues to make his recovery, with support from his fans at every step of the way.

  • IShowSpeed hops onto popular NPC TikTok trend as copycat streams flood social media – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed hops onto popular NPC TikTok trend as copycat streams flood social media Instagram: ishowspeedlikesdudesThe NPC TikTok trend has been making waves around the internet, so much so that well-known streamer IShowSpeed tried it out to hilarious effect. TikTok has exploded with the most recent trend of influencers attempting to put on their best NPC impression for tonnes and tonnes of cash. The NPC kink or fetish as some are calling it, originally caught on after 19-year-old TikToker Pinkydoll started eating ice cream emojis and stating “gang gang”. The way in which the NPC trend works is that TikTok live streamers earn money when viewers send in stickers. These stickers are what caused Pinkydoll and other influencers to act as a kind of soundboard, giving a reaction based on what sticker they were sent. Pinkydoll revealed that this form of entertainment is wildly lucrative, and therefore, many others have hopped onto the bandwagon in the hopes of making some fast cash. One rather well-known streamer has also joined the NPC trend, making their very own livestream where they acted out various emojis. Social media superstar IShowSpeed took it upon himself to try out the TikTok trend. Streaming superstar IShowSpeed joins the NPC TikTok trend Speed of course had some originality in his routine, however. The streamer reacted to several emojis, including weights by pretending to lift weights, roses by thanking the user, hearts by making a love heart above his head, and more. Speed did all this whilst pretending to walk on the spot, leaving a form of blank face to simulate that of a non-playable character in a game. No one is quite sure just yet if IShowSpeed made much from his recent entry into the NPC foray but some have estimated between the $20,000-$35,000 range based on stickers that appeared during the broadcast.

  • IShowSpeed impersonates fan’s dad and risks their suspension by calling teacher a “b****” – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed impersonates fan’s dad and risks their suspension by calling teacher a “b****” YouTube: Speedy BoykinsStreaming star IShowSpeed risked getting one of his fans suspended at school after impersonating their dad during a FaceTime call and insulting their substitute teacher. American broadcaster IShowSpeed is known for his wild on-stream antics. From setting off a huge firework in his room to diving into his own streaming setup, Speed is a wild card through and through — and fans love it. Speed is also known for organizing the occasional prank call. In fact, he even got YouTube icon MrBeast to hang up on him after he began barking at the internet star during an impromptu FaceTime chat. Now, another one of Speed’s FaceTime fiascos is going viral after a fan claimed he risked getting them suspended from school due to a prank gone wrong. IShowSpeed risks fan’s suspension after calling their teacher a ‘b*tch’ During a recent stream, Speed FaceTimed a fan at school, who walked up to their teacher in an attempt to get Speed to speak with them. However, Speed suddenly turned the tables, claiming that he was the kid’s parent and that he wanted to see how his ‘son’ was doing in school. The teacher explained that she was merely a substitute and wasn’t aware of the student’s performance outside of this particular class… and that’s when Speed took the prank to the next level. “Okay well, listen here, b*tch — don’t ever talk to my son like that ever again,” Speed said. The substitute was definitely not pleased with this comment and told the student he “must be talking about his mother,” saying, “Don’t talk to me like that! Forget you!” The student wasn’t happy with the streamer either, saying, “Speed, you a hoe, bro! You’re gonna get me suspended, bro.” Speed clearly felt bad about the situation and offered to CashApp the poor student $50 for his troubles. It’s unclear if the fan actually got suspended or not, but the whole situation certainly made for some interesting live streamed entertainment. This is just the latest wild incident to come out of Speed’s stream after he began farting in front of fellow streamer Kai Cenat and his girlfriend.

  • IShowSpeed goes super-viral with Neymar collab & it’s bigger than Ronaldo – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed goes super-viral with Neymar collab & it’s bigger than Ronaldo Twitter: IShowSpeedSuiIShowSpeed’s link-up with Neymar has proven to be even more popular than his first meeting with Cristiano Ronaldo, at least on TikTok anyway. Since shooting to the top of the streaming world, IShowSpeed has become pretty entrenched in the footballing world too – especially with his love of Portuguese legend Cristiano Ronaldo. The YouTube streaming star has linked up with his hero on two occasions – one went a bit smoother than the other – but he’s also met other people too. He’s streamed alongside Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold, as well as former Manchester United players Antony Elanga and Jese Lingard. Prior to meeting Ronaldo for a second time, Speed actually got to hang out with Brazilian star Neymar. And, to the surprise of many, that collab has proven to be a little more popular this meeting with Ronaldo – at least on TikTok. IShowSpeed & Neymar TikTok is even more popular than Ronaldo Recently, Speed has been in Japan following a few pre-season games of European giants PSG. One of those included a meeting with Ronaldo’s Al Nassr, where he also got to meet Kim Kardashian. Just prior to that game, he got to stream with Neymar for a little bit, where Speed naturally sang Neymar’s own song at him and had a bit of a dance-off as well. As of writing, a TikTok with the two on it has racked up over 128 million views, which is 28 million more views than his meeting with Ronaldo. In fact, the video has 22 million likes as well and had over 20 million views within an hour of it being uploaded, which is pretty incredible. That only goes for TikTok though. Over on Twitter, his photo with Ronaldo is still by far and away his most popular post. In fact, it’s gotten over 142.5 views and close to 2 million likes. His TikTok with Neymar will likely surpass that, given how much the view count is still climbing. That remains surprising to some fans, especially seeing how big of a fan Speed is for Ronaldo. Though, maybe they just didn’t expect the crossover with Neymar.

  • IShowSpeed hits out at YouTube strike for “harassment, threats or cyberbullying” – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed hits out at YouTube strike for “harassment, threats or cyberbullying” IShowSpeedOne of YouTube’s biggest streamers, IShowSpeed, has been hit with yet another strike on the platform, for breaking rules on harassment, threats or cyberbullying – which he has claimed is unfair. Speed was previously in hot water with the platform in July, after streaming an adult Minecraft mod. He was banned for two weeks – the standard punishment for a streamer’s second strike. On September 21, his channel was hit with yet another strike. Although this time the reason is not yet clear. “No way I just woke up to a strike @TeamYouTube,” IShowSpeed tweeted. “This one felt very weird because what happened in this stream for me to get this.” Speed clarified that the ban was a result of his stream from two days prior, on September 19. In that stream, he played Fortnite, and reacted to Twitter and TikTok. However, at the end of the stream, he visited the site ‘Ome TV’ – a live chatting platform that cycles through random individuals on camera. These types of websites are banned on Twitch – but not explicitly so on YouTube. It could be the strike was caused by something that occurred during this segment of the stream, when Speed was chatting live to random users. YouTube rule also mentions “sharing personal information, or content that includes egregious insults based on personal attributes (such as protected group status or physical traits) is not allowed.” At one point, Speed asked a random user to use the n word, after they said they were black. The user responded “no, because I am Muslim.” Some have also speculated that it was because he was “trolled” into doing an offensive gesture. Team YouTube is yet to respond to Speed’s Twitter post.

  • IShowSpeed gives update after being rushed back to hospital: “Just pray I don’t die” – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed gives update after being rushed back to hospital: “Just pray I don’t die” IShowSpeedStreaming star IShowSpeed has given fans an update after being rushed back to the hospital following a severe cluster headache. On July 28, YouTube star IShowSpeed sparked concerns from his fans after sharing an update on his health, revealing he’s currently undergoing the worst thing he’s ever experienced — a cluster headache, making it difficult for him to even open his eyes. While his dad assured fans that his son is okay, the situation turned out to be more serious than they thought. On July 30, Speed gave an update on his condition from the back of an ambulance, showing his right eye swollen completely shut, with him unable to see out of it. After going to multiple doctors, the YouTuber learned he was suffering from a serious sinus infection, explaining it feels like somebody is stabbing him in the eye. Since, the 18-year-old has shared another update, revealing in a July 31 YouTube video that he’s back in the hospital. “Right now I’m currently still in the hospital, hospitalized,” he said. “I really just wanna go home and stream for you all. I wanna go home, play Fortnite, play FIFA, I just wanna go home and stream. “I don’t know how long I’m gonna be here. Like I said I am hospitalized, they can keep me in here for months, weeks, days, or years if they want to.” The streamer then explained he had an MRI scan, and is still currently experiencing symptoms such as an ache behind his swollen right eye and the back of his head — adding that a side of his head is numb. “Guys, I love you all boys, just pray I don’t die. Every second I just think I’m gonna die. Genuinely, every second, because it hurts so bad, I don’t know what’s going on, my heart beating fast.” He added: “I love y’all, just pray for, please. I hate this, I’ve never experienced anything like this. My mom and dad are about to fly all the way to Tokyo, from America, Ohio, just please pray for me. I’m trying to keep in good spirits.” While he’s in the hospital and in pain, Speed still managed to poke a bit of fun at KSI, mentioning the size of the Prime co-founder’s forehead. KSI responded on Twitter: “Even in his worst state, he’s still found the energy to talk about my damn forehead. Praying for you bro.” According to Speed’s friend, the YouTuber could have permanently lost vision in that eye if things went any differently.

IShowSpeed has made a name for himself in the live streaming space, quickly becoming one of the biggest creators on the scene and absolutely dominating YouTube. Known for some of his wild antics, from diving head first into his streaming setup to meeting football star Cristiano Ronaldo, there’s no guessing what the streamer might get up to on any given day. Linking up with fellow creator Kai Cenat following the Sidemen Charity match, the streaming star has gone viral once again — this time for letting out a bit of gas. IShowSpeed farts on Kai Cenat and his new girlfriend During the latest episode of The Kai ‘N Speed Show on September 10, while also accompanied by a female guest who he claimed to be Kai’s “new girlfriend”, Speed suddenly stood up and proceeded to bend over and let one rip mid-conversation. “Eww, what the f**k,” Kai’s pro-claimed “girlfriend” cried out. “Did he just fart in her face?” Kai asked looking shocked. “I fully tasted that,” the girl added. With a look of pure astonishment from Kai and horror from his girlfriend, the 18-year-old continued, letting out a few more farts. “That smells like cauliflower and bad onion,” the girl said. “Bro, bro, bro,” Kai repeated, before begging him to stop. “Stop! Stop,” he said, while also slapping the young YouTuber on the back. “You can’t be farting in people’s faces, bro.” Moments later, one of the two streamers let out one last fart, although both refused to take responsibility and attempted to pin it on the other. “Eww b*tch that was you,” Speed hit out. “You dirty a** monkey bro. On my life that was you. That’s why you put your knee up.”

  • IShowSpeed gets 100k+ new Twitch followers without streaming after unban – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed gets 100k+ new Twitch followers without streaming after unban YouTube: Live SpeedyYouTuber IShowSpeed has gained over 100,000 new Twitch followers on his channel since getting unbanned, and he hasn’t even streamed on it yet. Back in December 2021, IShowSpeed was permanently banned on Twitch after an outburst that he had during a broadcast with Kick star Adin Ross. He’s since skyrocketed in popularity on YouTube and other platforms like Rumble, where he has a show alongside Twitch star Kai Cenat. IShowSpeed was suddenly unbanned from Twitch on October 10, and has since grown significantly in followers without even streaming on the channel. IShowSpeed gains over 100k new Twitch followers At the time of his unban, IShowSpeed had roughly 130,500 followers on his Twitch channel. At the time of writing, he’s at around 242,000. We contacted StreamsCharts about the growth, and they confirmed to Dexerto that Speed’s follower count on Twitch has grown by 112k followers since he was unbanned from the platform. Not to mention, he hasn’t even gone live on the channel since being able to return to the site. With over 20 million subscribers on YouTube, there’s no doubt that Speed’s Twitch channel will grow much more if he decides to go live on the platform. While the growth of his channel since the unban is noteworthy, this also means that Speed will be able to stream alongside Kai Cenat while the latter is on his channel. Due to Twitch’s community guidelines, Kai has not been able to even have Speed on his stream via phone or Discord call. “You may not Facilitate a suspended user on your own channel, either by restreaming their content or hosting them directly,” reads the guidelines. We’ll have to wait to see how the two interact with each other on stream in the future, but for now, you can head over to our Entertainment section to check out more news.

  • IShowSpeed gets Rio Ferdinand to react to his shocking penalty miss at Sidemen Charity match – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed gets Rio Ferdinand to react to his shocking penalty miss at Sidemen Charity match IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed got former professional footballer Rio Ferdinand to react to his shocking penalty miss at the 2023 Sidemen Charity match. This year’s Sidemen Charity match was by far the biggest we’ve seen yet from the UK YouTube stars. Following 2022’s tremendous success, this time around the Sidemen took over the London Stadium, the home of West Ham football club. Selling out over 60,000 seats and bringing together some of the biggest YouTubers and influencers from around the world to take part on the pitch, ultimately over £2,425,855 was raised — which will be shared across five different charities. Per usual, the match was nothing but action-packed, with goals flying in the net left, right, and center just minutes after kick-off. There were many notable highlights during the game, from lifelong West Ham fan Behzinga scoring the first goal, to YouTuber Max Fosh showing the referee a reverse Uno card after being booked with a yellow. Of course, we couldn’t go without mentioning IShowSpeed‘s antics on the pitch. From slide-tackling MrBeast, who picked up a minor injury, to punching KSI, it’s fair to say the 18-year-old tore up the pitch. Rio Ferdinand reacts to IShowSpeed’s penalty at Sidemen Charity match The most shocking moment from the young YouTube star came in the 55th minute, where the YouTube Allstars were awarded a penalty. IShowSpeed stepped up to take it, while KSI stood between the goalposts. Looking to follow in the footsteps of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo and score in front of millions, the YouTuber instead failed miserably, missing the penalty kick as KSI jumped to make the save. After going viral, and becoming a laughing stock among fans in the process, Speed got former professional footballer Rio Ferdinand to react to the shocking penalty miss during a September 11 livestream. “Too tentative, too weak,” the former footballer reacted to the penalty. “You need to have the conviction, you need to f**king go man, and go , ‘Bang! This is me.’” “You weren’t intent on scoring, you were more scared to miss,” Ferdinand explained, to which Speed agreed. “You’re right. That’s exactly what I was thinking.” He added: “That’s exactly what I was thinking. I was too scared, I was more focused on not missing rather than scoring bro.” In the end, and after breaking viewership records, the Sidemen FC kept up their winning streak over the Allstars, with the scoreline settling at a staggering 8-5.

  • IShowSpeed furious after Messi wins FIFA’s Best Player of 2023 award instead of Ronaldo – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed furious after Messi wins FIFA’s Best Player of 2023 award instead of Ronaldo YouTube/IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed is furious after Messi won the Best FIFA Men’s Player of 2023 while Ronaldo wasn’t even nominated for the award. Anybody who is familiar with IShowSpeed will be well aware of his obsession with Portuguese football icon Cristiano Ronaldo. The 18-year-old attempted to meet CR7 on numerous occasions. Finally after years of trying he got the chance to meet and grab a photo with the footballer in 2023. After meeting Ronaldo, Speed has not slowed down with the fixation on his idol, constantly showing support a ton and appreciation for the footballer. IShowSpeed furious after Messi wins best men’s player award Nevertheless, in his recent January 15 stream, the YouTube star lost his cool after it was announced that Messi took home the award for the best men’s player of 2023. As Cristiano Ronaldo wasn’t even nominated for the award, the Argentine forward Lionel Messi beat out the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Erling Halaand, and Kevin De Bruyne. However, IShowSpeed clearly wasn’t impressed. “Bro, are you f**king serious? Are you f**king serious? Lionel Messi crowned best men’s player of 2023 at FIFA The Best Awards after beating Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe to the top prize,” he said. “Lionel Messi has been crowned The Best FIFA Men’s Player for 2023. What the f**k! What the f**k? How?” the YouTuber repeated. Speed added: “Haaland had 255 goals last year. Mbappe had 152 goals last year. Ronaldo had 310 goals last year. Messi had 43 goals last year. How? The f**k. Rigged.” It’s worth noting that the YouTuber’s numbers are way off. But still, it’s surprising to see that CR7 wasn’t even nominated despite being the top goal-scorer of the 2023 calendar year after joining Saudi Arabian side Al-Nasr.

    iShowSpeed furious as tattooist pranks him with terrible Cristiano Ronaldo tattoo YouTube: iShowSpeediShowSpeed was left fuming after having his brand new Cristiano Ronaldo tattoo revealed to him, asking who it was — before the tattooist revealed that it was just a prank and that he wasn’t finished yet. iShowSpeed has become one of the most popular streamers in the world, taking his huge legion of fans to YouTube after being banned from Twitch in 2021. He’s thriving on YouTube, however, and is often talked about as one of the biggest streamers on the internet nowadays, thanks largely to his infatuation with former Manchester United and Real Madrid star, Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he has based a lot of his content around and even written a song about. He loves Ronaldo so much, though, that he decided to get a tattoo of the football legend and livestream it for his viewers to see — but he didn’t expect to get pranked by his tattooist of all people. After a few moments of looking between the sample picture of Ronaldo provided and the tattoo on his arm, Speed screamed “who is this,” clearly stunned by what he believed to be an awful tattoo now permanently embedded on his skin. Finally, after looking like he was ready to cry, the tattoo artist said “Hey bro, I’m just f**king with you, it’s not done. We doing pranks, right?” Speed was clearly elated to find out it wasn’t done yet, saying that they “scared the f**k” out of him, and the stream actually ended with the YouTube star delighted with the final product. Hitting a big trademark “SUI” and kissing his new tattoo, Speed could barely contain his excitement at the ink, with a message straight to Ronaldo saying “You’re now a part of me for life.”

  • IShowSpeed furious after being swatted on live stream in new home – Dexerto

    IShowSpeed furious after being swatted on live stream in new home YouTube:IShowSpeedYouTuber IShowSpeed has been swatted once again, and is now warning viewers against swatting after he “could have really died.” When it comes to the safety and security of major streamers, swatting has become an ever-looming issue. For those who may not be familiar with the term, swatting is when someone makes a fake call to emergency services, typically police, and gives out the address of an unsuspecting victim. The result is that a large number of armed police officers then arrive at the address they give out. For YouTube streamer IShowSpeed, the content creator was once again swatted on stream, with his chat and viewers witnessing his realization and frustration at the moment. While on stream, Speed can be seen looking around and alarmed before realizing he is being swatted. “Omg, omg, omg. Bro, just for my safety in case anything happens. Ain’t no f**king way bro.” Speed then proceeds to take his headphones off, pull down the screen behind his streaming setup, and promise that he’ll be “right back” before heading off to deal with the situation. What’s more, this swatting comes just days after Speed showed off his new 10 million dollar house which he had just purchased and made the move to. Several streamers, including IShowSpeed, Adin Ross, and xQc have been the subjects of swatting during their live streams. In August 2022, Speed was handcuffed by police officers after his home was swatted in the middle of his livestream. Similarly, Kick streamer Adin Ross was swatted live on air, with armed police entering his home, and was understandably traumatized by the experience. With this becoming a common occurrence throughout the streaming space, many popular content creators are calling for more action to be taken to prevent this from happening to them. Speed later took to Snapchat to share an update, warning viewers against swatting considering the dangers. “I just got swatted. I wish I knew whoever did that. That’s f***ed up. Don’t ever do that again in your life, bro. I could have really died. I had guns to my face. Don’t ever do that again.” For all the latest entertainment news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto’s full coverage here.

From accidentally flashing his fans while playing Five Nights at Freddy’s, to collaborating with some of the world’s biggest football stars, there’s absolutely no telling what to expect when tuning into his broadcasts on any given day. The 18-year-old’s accidental wardrobe malfunction has been the talk in his community as of late, with even his dad jumping in on the jokes. However, a recent YouTube stream took a different turn, leaving Speed infuriated with his fans. IShowSpeed furious with racist viewer In his August 25 livestream, the YouTube star started off by giving his fans a chance to call him and be featured on the broadcast. With hundreds of viewers calling and texting him at once, Speed decided to phone one fan poking fun, which ended in disaster. “I show meat,” the fan answered Speed’s call, before repeatedly calling the YouTube star racial slurs. “You f*cking n**ger, you monkey n**ger,” they kept repeating. Speed pleaded with the fan to stop. However, they refused and continued to call the 18-year-old a “slave” and a “monkey.” (Timestamp at 36:38) “You’re a slave, you’re a slave, you’re a slave. You’re a slave, shut the fk up, you’re a f*king slave bro,” the fan said. “Don’t ever try, you’re a monkey slave, bro. I hate f*king slaves, bro. I hate monkeys, I hate them, I hate them.” Pleading again and again for the fan to stop, Speed ultimately ended the call, where it’s fair to say he was left enraged.

    iShowSpeed finally sees Cristiano Ronaldo score and goes viral with celebration YouTube: iShowSpeedStreaming star iShowSpeed went viral again as he finally got to see Cristiano Ronaldo score at a game after he traveled all the way to Saudi Arabia. Even though Lionel Messi has pretty much shut the door on the debate about who is the GOAT in football, iShowSpeed won’t hear it and is still backing Cristiano Ronaldo. Speed’s admiration of Ronaldo is well documented at this point, as he’s traveled across the globe to see him play. It didn’t go well the first time, given Ronaldo was left out of the Manchester United team, but he did get to see him at the World Cup – even if his viewers on the stream didn’t. With Ronaldo leaving United and moving to Al Nassr, Speed got an invite from his hero’s new club to go and watch his first game. That game just so happened to be a friendly against PSG, the home of Ronaldo’s longtime rival Lionel Messi. iShowSpeed loses his mind finally seeing Ronaldo score Well, Speed obliged with the invite and jetted over to Riyadh to watch the game, and even though PSG edged it out with a 5-4 win, he finally got to see Ronaldo score. As you might expect at this point, Speed went a little crazy seeing his hero bag a goal, even joining in with his trademark ‘Sui’ celebration by jumping a fair bit in the air. “Let’s go!” he screamed over and over. That clip of Speed’s celebrating went viral even before Ronaldo slotted home his second goal of the game, and has reached almost 4 million views alone on Twitter at this point. Even though it was only a friendly match, and won’t count in any official record books, Speed did try and claim that Ronaldo wrestled back the top spot in the GOAT conversation with his goals. Obviously, fans disagree with that take, but there are plenty who are glad that he finally got to see his idol perform on the pitch. It’s been a long wait, after all.

It’s no secret that iShowSpeed is a huge fan of Portuguese football star Cristiano Ronaldo. The streamer has made no bones about his love for the athlete, even getting an image of the pro’s face inked on his arm (although the tattoo didn’t come out as perfectly as he’d imagined). Most recently, Speed traveled all the way to Saudi Arabia to watch Ronaldo play a friendly game against PSG and even saw his hero score a goal — prompting one of his biggest on-stream celebrations to date. After inviting a fake Ronaldo on stream last year and doing his best to get his idol’s attention, it seems as though Speed’s efforts may have finally paid off, as he got recognized by the athlete’s very own underwear company, CR7. iShowSpeed gets huge box of gifts from Christiano Ronaldo’s brand, CR7 Speed opened up one of his January live streams with a huge smile on his face, holding a massive box on his lap as he announced to his fans that he’d received a gift from the one and only Cristiano Ronaldo. He made short work of opening the box, which contained a multitude of products from CR7, including shirts, underwear, sweats, and more. Of course, the streamer had to try on the clothes he’d received on stream for a little fashion show, acting just like a kid on Christmas. “I feel like Ronaldo, y’all!” Speed joked. “I am wearing the same underwear that Ronaldo wears! This is the underwear that Ronaldo puts on every day!” Speed couldn’t contain his excitement and screamed throughout the entire unboxing — but his fans were equally impressed, although not totally convinced that he’d actually gotten Ronaldo’s recognition. For now, Speed inches closer and closer to an actual meeting with his idol… but until then, the streamer will continue to dominate viewership after ranking as the #1 most-watched broadcaster on YouTube in 2022.

Sky Sports later decided to pull footage of the streamer off their channels, citing previous controversial comments. In all of the matches where he has been spotted in the stands, he just wanted to see Cristiano Ronaldo play in the flesh. The multiple-time Balon d’Or winner has been on the bench a lot in 2022, meaning Speed didn’t get the chance to see him in action – until now. After traveling to Qatar for the World Cup, sure enough, the striker was benched once again during a fixture he wanted to stream live from the stands. iShowSpeed stream crashes after finally seeing Ronaldo play live He set up a live stream for Portugal’s match against Switzerland, on December 6, broadcasting footage to his YouTube channel. Fernando Santos’ side ran out 6-1 winners against their opponents, with 21-year-old Goncalo Ramos slamming in a hattrick on the night. Yet, for the majority of proceedings, CR7 was limited to the touchline. When the moment came for Ronaldo to enter the field of play, iShowSpeed completely lost it – as seen in a video captured live at the Lusail Iconic stadium in Qatar. Ronaldo came on in the 73rd minute. Getting emotional, the streamer screamed: “He’s off the bench! He’s off the bench!” Fellow streamer Casimito was trying to capture Speed’s reaction but was worried about battery life. “My phone is on two percent.” Seconds later, it was all over as the broadcast came to a screeching halt. His channel has over 14 million subscribers and even long after the stream had ended, over 15,000 people were left staring at a blank screen hoping it would return. For those who missed his reaction, it was clipped and posted to Twitter by user Crazy101. What was supposed to be an iconic moment for the streamer ended in disaster this time, but with Portugal progressing to the quarter-finals of the competition, there may still be time for another stream. Who knows, he may be able to watch his idol come off the bench in the latter stages of the World Cup.

    IShowSpeed fighting KSI? YouTubers mock Andrew Tate vs Jake Paul fight teaser Twitter: ishowspeedsuiInternet stars IShowSpeed and KSI posted a cheeky video poking fun at the faceoff between Andrew Tate and Jake Paul as rumors of a bout between the two personalities continue to rise. YouTube-boxer Jake Paul has just come off his successful bout against MMA legend Anderson Silva — but fans are already eyeing his next possible opponent. On November 10, Paul unexpectedly posted a video of himself facing off with controversial online commentator and former kickboxer Andrew Tate, appearing to tease that “negotiations” were underway for a potential match. Jake’s video instantly went viral, sparking speculation that these two might be touching gloves in the near future… but, of course, it also prompted some memes along the way. Is KSI fighting IShowSpeed? More specifically, Jake Paul’s ultimate rival, KSI, poked fun at the video in a hilarious parody of the clip alongside fellow YouTuber IShowSpeed. Speed uploaded a clip to Twitter on November 11 where he faced off with KSI in a similar style to Jake and Tate’s video — albeit a little more chaotic, as Speed growled at KSI, whose eyes went wide in confusion. That’s not all, though; Speed may have actually been teasing a fight with KSI, or at least hinting that he’ll be on the upcoming Misfits 4 boxing event, which is coming up in January 2023. Fans have noted that two are close friends and are unlikely to face off in the ring, though. For now, it’s still unclear who is fighting on the mysterious Misfits boxing card, but KSI has said that Logan Paul — a popular pick for the event — is unlikely to participate due to several injuries he sustained during his fight against Roman Reigns.

As expected, the stream was full of amusement, insane moments, and Speed losing it completely during his missions. Here’s what his viewers said as he ended the stream. IShowSpeed pulls off insane 17-hour stream to finish GTA 5 story Popular YouTube streamer IShowSpeed streamed the entire GTA 5 main story in three parts, culminating in a 17-hour nonstop live stream. During the broadcast, the streamer expressed his determination to finish the game by any means necessary and even made some lewd remarks throughout the campaign. However, upon finishing the game by choosing Option C: Deathwish towards the end, Speed managed to keep all three characters alive and unlock a nostalgic ending to the game. While this stream was nothing short of extraordinary in the gaming space, his fans turned up on social media to show their gratitude. One such fan said, “A million views back to back is crazy ngl.” Another chimed in, “Lol this man you would think he was inside the video game.” While all three streams are still up on YouTube, IShowSpeed’s 2024 is already off to a smashing start with his new song, viral New Year stream with Adin Ross, and now the GTA 5 gameplay stream.
