iShowSpeed Receives His Second YouTube Strike After A 'Fat Joke' He Said To A Fan On Omegle

iShowSpeed Receives His Second YouTube Strike After A 'Fat Joke' He Said To A Fan On Omegle

Twitch and YouTube streamer iShowSpeed has a growing list of bans, recently receiving a strike on YouTube for a fatphobic comment he levied at a fan during an Omegle livestream.

On Monday, Speed, whose real name is Darren Watkins Jr., was livestreaming his Omegle conversations, pictured with a blow-up sex doll that he had dressed up in real clothes. A 15-year-old fan then appeared on the screen and started making fun of Speed for having dressed up the doll. Speed retaliated by quickly saying, "Ain't no way you're fat."


As the stream continued, the "fat joke" fell to the wayside and no one in the chat or on social media appeared to think much about it. This changed yesterday when Speed posted a tweet that included a screenshot of a YouTube strike he'd received that claimed he was harassing and cyberbullying in regards to his "fat joke."


Soon after, Speed followed up on the strike with a YouTube video titled, "goodbye for now 💔…." in which the creator revealed that he'd be going dark online for 14 days. Obviously saddened and disgruntled by the strike, the video's tone mirrored what he stated in his tweet — "this one felt very weird."


Of course, when saying, "this one felt very weird," Speed was acknowledging his previous scandals, bans, strikes and warnings on Twitch and elsewhere that have plagued him since the end of 2021. Some of the most notable ones are his December 2021 Twitch ban in which he appeared on Adin Ross's e-dating show and made a rape joke that didn't go over well, his April 2022 Valorant ban in which he made sexist remarks to a female Valorant player on stream and his July 2022 YouTube ban after he live-reacted to a Rule 34 Minecraft video.


As Speed has reached 10 million subscribers on YouTube and attracted many clones, copycats and wannabes, his content creation career seems to continually be on the rise, however, if the 17-year-old continues to spout problematic sentiments, he could even receive the Andrew Tate treatment platform-wide and face widespread platform bans.

Whether this latest strike (or any of them) was completely warranted is up to the viewer. All the internet knows for now is that Speed won't be back until October.
