IShowSpeed has asked out the new ‘princess of rap’ Ice Spice for a date, and fans are going crazy about it. 

2022 was a fantastic year for Youtuber IShowSpeed as he ticked off multiple achievements on his list. Starting from blowing up on Twitch to almost meeting his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, he made it big. Plus, he traveled to the other part of the world only to attend the FIFA World Cup, let alone support Portugal from the stands. However, his dream turned into a nightmare after fans pinned the ‘Ronaldo curse’ over him. 

Still, Speed continued to pursue his dream, meeting and collaborating with different artists, celebrities, YouTubers, and more. Some of his top collabs included the Sidemen, Kai Cenat, and Adin Ross. But as the content creator entered 2023, he wanted to turn things up for himself. After all, he was finally getting out of his ‘teens,’ turning into a young adult on January 21.

So, to spice things up, he hoped on a stream with Adin Ross, asking out an emerging rapper on a date. And to everyone’s surprise, she agreed. 

IShowSpeed makes a bold move for his 18th birthday 

Darren Watkins Jr, aka IShowSpeed, has had an off-beat track record with girls. Be it online dates or stream features, the content creator did not fare well. For instance, fans did not expect Speed to believe in an overly-funny way during his co-stream with Kai Cenat, as they felt it to be too much.

At first, the new ‘princess of hip-hop’ asked him if he was legal and then said yes for the meetup. It was one of the heartfelt moments for Speed fans, as they did not expect this from him. Plus, everyone was ‘shipping’ them already, hoping to make a power couple. But well, that’s just up for speculation.
