Gaming YouTuber Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins (18) looks overjoyed that Lionel Messi blocked him on Instagram. He celebrates himself extensively and lets his fans cheer him on.
This is the situation:
- The 18-year-old “IShowSpeed” is a gaming YouTuber, rapper and big football fan, he is particularly fond of Cristiano Ronaldo.
- Because the 18-year-old is extremely successful on YouTube, he has actually managed to get in touch with some real stars in recent months: for example the footballer Alphonso Davies from FC Bayern or the rapper Drake. The encounters ended suboptimal for either the star or the 18-year-old IShowSpeed.
- Now IShowSpeed even manages to celebrate just because Lionel Messi blocked him on Instagram.
What is IShowSpeed excited about? IShowSpeed is raving about being blocked by Lionel Messi on Instagram. Because that means, he concludes razor-sharp, that Messi even knows who he is and has taken the trouble to ban him.
In one video, he screams enthusiastically at the camera and keeps asking the chat to watch as he can’t message or follow Lionel Messi.
“This man, Messi, this man Messi – he went to his Instagram, clicked my pro – Messi saw my profile! – he looked at me!
It’s not clear why Messi blocked him. IShowSpeed doesn’t seem to care either – it’s “understandable” that Messi blocked him, he just keeps saying.
With visible pride he shows that Messi has “restricted” his account.
Fans cheer IShowSpeed for knowing Messi
This makes the whole thing even more absurd: The impressive thing is that not only is IShowSpeed so excited about this, but also that his fans are indirectly proud of IShowSpeed and compliment him on it.
It says: “It can only mean one thing: Messi knows speed. Good job!” The comment below the YouTube video has reached almost 1,000 likes.
This is behind it: That’s actually part of the attraction of “IShowSpeed” that he exerts on his viewers: he has contact, as thin as he may be, with the big ones. This shows his importance, which is also recognized by his followers.
Somehow it’s enough that “one from below” manages to play at all in this fantasy world of stars and icons.
When IShowspeed writes headlines themselves, they tend to be negative.
