Valkyrae, Pokimane and the entirety of Twitter are losing it over the Ariana Grande Fortnite concert
Of course, this event is raising massive hype, and for good reason. Many Ariana Grande fans who do not play Fortnite are asking around on Twitter and installing the game, which is one of the outcomes Epic Games was going for.
Other streamers and players who have installed Fortnite have decided to get back into the game because of this event. Valkyrae stated on Twitter that she is one of them.
However, what broke the wholesome meter is this tweet and its reply from Pokimane:
But what immediately made things worse was a reply from a meme account, obviously referring to the 'holding hands' bit but more surreal (and disturbing):
Popular YouTuber Ali-A also joined in on the hype wagon:
It is also notable how he subtly tried to promote his YouTube channel by asking for a follow from the iconic popstar herself:
Fortnite has offered a virtual stage to many iconic pop and hip-hop icons out there, Travis Scott being one of the most notable mentions. In a way, the popularity of Fortnite as a brand gets a major boost from these events as its gameplay has become rather repetitive by now.
