Streamer Awards Host’s Diddy Joke About Kai Cenat Draws Onstage Rebuke and Online Backlash

The viral moment has renewed calls for professional hosts at streamer ceremonies.

Overview

  • During the Los Angeles show, host FanFan joked to Kai Cenat, “congrats on your new documentary with 50 Cent,” referencing Netflix’s Sean Combs: The Reckoning.
  • Streamer Tylil took the mic and told her, “If you’re going to be on the mic making jokes, at least let it be funny.”
  • Clips spread across X and other platforms, with creators including J. D. Witherspoon urging the event to use professional hosts and to “read the room.”
  • FanFan later described the remark as light-hearted and linked it to Cenat’s haircut, but criticism from viewers persisted.
  • Viewers also faulted the Twitch broadcast for technical glitches, as the flap overshadowed Cenat’s multiple award wins.
