YouTube sensation Darren "IShowSpeed" has gone viral on social media after introducing his new girlfriend, Vanessa. On December 27, 2024, he teamed up with Twitch star Kai Cenat for a Fortnite OG marathon livestream. At the 31-hour mark of the broadcast, the content creator invited his significant other to appear live on camera to introduce her to his audience.
However, Vanessa seemed hesitant to show up in front of the camera. After noticing that his live viewers were making inappropriate comments, IShowSpeed remarked:
"Yo, don't be... chat. She's nervous! She's nervous. Yo, chat, she's nervous. Hold on. No, no, don't be nervous. [Kai Cenat says, 'Make her feel comfortable.'] Don't be nervous. I'm about to introduce you to my chat. Chat, stop spamming gyat! Hell nah! See? This is the s**t I've been talking about, bruh. These n****s are saying 'gyat.' I swear, I want to just introduce... stop being scared. Why are you scared?"
When the Ohio native told his partner she was not required to stay for too long on the livestream, Vanessa sat next to him. The YouTuber then said:
"Anyways, y'all, this is my girlfriend, Vanessa. She is kind of nervous right now. But chat, this is my girl right here. Like, introduce yourself! Stop being nervous. Yo, Kai, come here! Come here real quick. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come on, come on, come on!"
IShowSpeed eventually introduced Vanessa by saying:
"Anyways, y'all, boys and girls, this is my girl Vanessa. She is 20 years old."
IShowSpeed asks his girlfriend, Vanessa, "three main questions"
Another moment from IShowSpeed and Kai Cenat's ongoing Fortnite OG marathon livestream has garnered attention on social media. In a 42-second video posted on X, the 20-year-old asked his girlfriend the "three main questions."
These questions were:
- Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi?
- What's your favorite anime?
- Bend or top?
Vanessa's answers were:
"Ronaldo. One Piece. Bend."
In another instance, Vanessa described the things she liked about Darren:
"Three things I love about Darren? One, his beautiful smile. Two, I like the way he takes care of others around him. Three, how he treats me. Like, he treats me how I deserve to be treated."
Speed isn't the only popular streamer who has recently announced a relationship. On December 15, 2024, Kai Cenat went viral on social media after disclosing that he is dating TikToker and Instagram influencer Gabrielle Alayah.
