IShowSpeed’s enthusiasm for Cristiano Ronaldo continues to deliver entertaining moments for fans, with the recent revelation of his text to the football superstar leaving social media in hysterics. The popular streamer, known for his admiration of Ronaldo, gained widespread attention after finally meeting his idol in 2023, and now his latest interaction is sparking excitement and laughs alike.
The Text Exchange
In a group chat facilitated by YouTuber MrBeast, Speed took the opportunity to send a heartfelt yet amusing message to Ronaldo, saying:
“Hey Ronaldo, It’s Speed, we met about last year. I just wanted to say hi, and hopefully we can meet again soon. Cheers.”
Fans quickly picked up on the text exchange after Speed shared it during a livestream, leading to mixed reactions. While some fans speculated this could be another turning point in Speed’s career, others humorously doubted whether Ronaldo would respond. One fan joked, “Ronaldo is not gonna reply to that…he hated Speed low-key,” referencing Speed’s over-the-top antics during their first meeting.
Speed’s Growing Rolodex
Interestingly, Ronaldo isn’t the only football star Speed has recently connected with. The streamer also revealed he has the phone number of Real Madrid’s Vinícius Jr., the 2024 Ballon d’Or runner-up. During a video with House of Highlights, Speed even attempted a FaceTime call with Vinícius, although the identity of the person who answered remains unclear.
A Phenomenon in the Football World
Speed’s dedication to football and his idolization of Ronaldo have made him a prominent figure in the sport’s fan culture. His attendance at the 2024 Ballon d’Or ceremony further cemented his status as a crossover star in both gaming and football entertainment.
The question now is: Will Ronaldo respond to Speed’s message? Whether or not he does, Speed’s journey as a football fan and entertainer shows no signs of slowing down. Fans eagerly await the next chapter in this dynamic story.
