FaZe Lacy has been teasing a possible collaboration with a former US President for a couple of days and on September 5, brought in a Barack Obama impersonator on his Twitch broadcast to the amusement of fans.

The FaZe Clan is currently in the middle of a month-long subathon, with content creators associated with the organization frequently collaborating on each other's marathon streams that started on September 1.

FaZe Lacy had previously announced that he would have a former US President on his channel this week and as it turned out, it was a performer mimicking the likeness of Barack Obama. Clips from their interaction have gone viral, garnering hundreds of thousands of impressions on social media websites like X. Here are some general reactions of viewers commenting on the Obama impersonator and how many had predicted the real President would not show up:

Clips of FaZe Lacy's Obama impersonator go viral on social media

Bringing on mimicry artists and impersonators of famous figures on Twitch streams is nothing new and content creators have been doing it for a long time. That said, in the last couple of years, livestreaming has reached new heights with figures like Adin Ross and Kai Cenat frequently collaborating and interacting with famous athletes and artists on their broadcasts.

FaZe Lacy, however, chose to do a bit with an impersonator mimicking Barack Obama on his latest Twitch stream. The fake former President made quite an entrance along with several others in his entourage pretending to be secret service agents.

The fake Barack Obama not only gave a speech addressing the audience on FaZe Lacy's livestream but also danced on camera to the amusement of fans. Viewers were very much amused by the spectacle, with clips of the moment being shared extensively on social media.

In related news, Kick streamer Adin Ross did manage to secure an interview with an actual former US President recently. Last month, Adin had Donald Trump on his stream for more than an hour, going viral all over the internet and beyond.
