Renowned YouTuber Darren Watkins Jr., better known as IShowSpeed, has gotten inked with a tattoo of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo on his arm.

IShowSpeed has long been an admirer of Cristiano Ronaldo, with him making multiple attempts to watch the 37-year-old in action. He most recently went to Qatar to catch Ronaldo in action for Portugal in the 2022 World Cup Round of 16 against Switzerland. Much to his dismay, Ronaldo started the game on the bench.

This week, the American streamer kicked his devotion up a notch by getting a permanent tattoo of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo. As has often been the case with the 17-year-old YouTuber, the experience was not as seamless as he would have liked.

As seen in IShowSpeed’s live stream, the tattoo artist pulled a prank on the social media star while inking him. He initially revealed a tattoo that had very little resemblance to the Al Nassr ace. Furious with the artist’s work, IShowSpeed repeatedly said:

“Who is this?”

The tattoo artist eventually gave in, admitting that it was not the finished product.

“Hey bro, I’m just f****** with you, it’s not done. We doing pranks, right?,” he said.

After the tattoo was finished, the young YouTuber let out Ronaldo’s trademark “Siiiuuu” and claimed that the Portuguese was now a part of him for life.

“You’re now a part of me for life,” he claimed.

As per talkSPORT, however, many of IShowSpeed's followers were unimpressed with the finished tattoo, with one user dubbing it “Ronaldo from Wish.”
