YouTube phenomenon JJ Olatunji, famously known as KSI, has been at the forefront of the platform in recent years. The popular YouTuber, who started off as a content creator, has made a name for himself in the music industry, and also has three boxing fights under his belt, winning two of the three.

But KSI originally rose to fame for his hysterical commentary and gaming videos. And while you’re remembering your favorite KSI videos, here’s another classic featuring the YouTuber playing the legacy game, FIFA 15. But there is a twist. KSI didn’t just play FIFA. He picked up the magic wand and played the game as Harry Potter movie star Emma Watson, and it was absolutely mindboggling!

The Gunners fan, of course, picked Arsenal FC as the club for his created player, who he names after himself. And that’s where the Hermione, from the wizarding world, actor comes in. While choosing the appearance for his player, the game pops a warning that said, “You do not appear to have a Game Face” leading KSI to download additional content. Much like a typical FIFA game.

After passing on options that KSI calls “Kim Jong-un” and “Bald Justin Bieber”, the YouTuber stumbles across a face that looks like Emma Watson’s. To which KSI laughingly says, “Have you guessed it yet? It’s Emma Watson. It’s Emma Watson, mate. Emma Watson’s in the game! Emma Watson’s in FIFA 15! Females are in FIFA 16? No. They’re in FIFA 15 ladies and gentlemen.” KSI also changes the player’s name to Emma ‘HOT’ Watson as well.

KSI then continues to play matches with “Emma Watson” as Arsenal’s star Center Back, managing to bring in a clean sheet in his debut. But, of course, his commentary stole the spotlight rather than his FIFA skills.
