À propos de cet audio
IShowSpeed has taken over headlines in recent days with a barrage of headline-grabbing moments and show-stopping activity. The most biographically significant development is his confirmation as the primary creator for an altcast of the NFL’s first ever regular season game in Brazil, set for September 5th. Not only will YouTube livestream the Chiefs vs Chargers match globally for free, but Speed will be one of four appointed hosts, leveraging his 43 million subscribers, nearly tripling the NFL’s own viewership on the platform. The platform’s new Watch With feature will allow fans to watch the game with Speed’s live commentary and reactions, further cementing him as a central figure at the intersection of sports, streaming, and Gen Z media culture. According to SportsPro and The Athletic, this move is viewed in the industry as a significant experiment in media convergence, chosen specifically because Speed is “one of the most widely consumed creators in the world.”
But iShowSpeed isn’t just making waves in sports media. He’s in the midst of his most ambitious project yet—a 35-day nonstop Speed Does America livestream tour, which kicked off August 28 in Miami. He will cross 25 states, broadcasting continually for over a month on both YouTube and Twitch, with stops teased in Texas, Oregon, and Washington among others. The tour was teased by MrBeast, with a potential collaboration rumored, but not yet confirmed. The first day lit up social media, fueled by a headline-grabbing visit to Tom Brady’s Miami home. Tom Brady not only welcomed Speed but also challenged him to a bench press and handed him a signed Ronaldo rookie card in a knowing tribute to Speed’s legendary fandom. The tour is unfolding on a custom $300,000 bus, which Speed showcased in his latest stream, drawing attention for both the luxury and chaos of 24/7 livestream production.
The livestreams have not been without drama. During a critical meet-and-greet with Tom Brady, Speed erupted on his production crew over technical lag—a clip that quickly blew up on X and other platforms, generating memes and hot takes on his fiery persona and perfectionism, as reported by Complex and SoapCentral. Additional viral moments have included him shutting down persistent fan rumors about other creators sneaking onto his tour bus and numerous high-energy, unscripted exchanges with his community.
Rounding out his media dominance, Rolling Stone officially named IShowSpeed the number one Most Influential Content Creator of 2025, a marker of mainstream recognition rarely bestowed on livestream personalities. This endorsement—and his meteoric likeness everywhere from the NFL to MrBeast’s universe—signals a new tier of stardom that extends far beyond gaming or IRL streaming. The convergence of big brand partnerships, major sports integrations, and continuous viral memes have in the last week alone positioned IShowSpeed as not just a YouTube phenomenon, but now an undeniable pillar of twenty-first century entertainment.
