Ishowspeed falls for CZN Burak's prank in Turkey
The streamer, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr., was visiting Turkey when he experienced the popular local 'spilling prank' often performed on tourists.
The prank involves a server pretending to spill hot tea or food on a customer, causing panic, only for the customer to realise that the bowls and cups are either empty or attached to the tray.
During his visit, IShowSpeed was approached by a waiter holding two steaming kettles. The server then pretended to drop one of the kettles on Speed, prompting him to jump out of his seat in alarm.
Realising the kettles were empty, Speed appeared frustrated and shouted at the waiter to 'stop f*cking playing' while others at the scene laughed, including the server and surrounding customers. The moment was captured on video and quickly circulated across social media platforms.

Reactions to the incident were mixed. Some viewers criticised Speed's reaction, labelling it as exaggerated, with one user stating, 'It's sad how people like Speed make themselves like clowns for a few clicks.' Others focused on his quick reflexes, commenting, 'Now I know why he's called Speed,' and 'That is totally cool to see iSpeed's speed.'
The prank took place during IShowSpeed's Europe Tour Part 2, which began on July 7 and will include stops in several countries such as Bosnia, Estonia, Poland, and Turkey.
The tour also marks Speed's return to Twitch after years away from the platform, with live broadcasts available on both Twitch and YouTube for viewers to follow his travels.

Late payment is an industry standard: Ahmad Ali Butt
After veteran actor Mohammed Ahmed and director Mehreen Jabbar, Ahmad Ali Butt is the latest celebrity to slam Pakistani industry's recurring issue with late payments. "Late payment is an industry standard," said Butt in an Instagram Story on Monday. "Production houses, television channels and corporate sponsors all have a 60 to 90-day payment clause, and that too is hardly ever met on time." He added, "There are a few rare people who will pay you on time, otherwise everyone will make sure that you have to beg for your money, and that too in installments." On a lighter note, the actor quipped, "Work for YouTube. Be your own boss." While the entertainment industry's exploitative practices have been criticised repeatedly, the recent spotlight comes after Jabbar flagged the issue in an interview. While appearing on the podcast, Gup Shup with Sheeba, the Dobara Phir Se director said, "In the US, even with all their issues, there's a fixed schedule for payments. People know when they'll get paid. Here, you have to chase payments like beggars." She maintained that this is something that affects everyone in the industry, "Ask anyone and they'll have stories. This is across every channel and production house." Following Jabbar's statement, Ahmed took to Instagram to share his experience. In a video message, he said, "Except one production house or two, I haven't seen people being paid on time. Payments delayed by three to four months are commonplace. That too, after begging for what is yours They will still behave like they've done you a huge favour." Shining a harsh light on the very real need for timely payments in an increasingly difficult financial climate rife with bills and inflation, Ahmed took issue with the ideal notion that an artist's work is above money. "Money is everyone's biggest need," stressed the actor as though pointing out the obvious. "Especially for those people who have no form of income other than showbiz. A production house will make you do a 15 – to 20-hour shoot, but when it comes to giving you a cheque, they either refuse to pick the phone or give you a ridiculous reason for not doing so." For Ahmed, there is only one silver lining in this dire state of affairs: the fact that he is no longer alone in calling out production houses. "Thank you, Mehreen, for saying what you did," he said, a note of warmth entering his voice. "I'm glad that people have started speaking up."

Ronaldo Jr. comments on rising football stars during livestream
Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. sparked discussion online after a recent Twitch stream with content creator 2xRaKai, where he named his father, Cristiano Ronaldo, as his favorite footballer of all time. When asked whether Barcelona and Spain's teenage star Lamine Yamal might eventually surpass his father, Ronaldo Jr. replied, 'He hasn't won anything yet.' The comment quickly drew attention across social media platforms, as Yamal was part of the Spanish national team that won the UEFA Euro 2024 title. At 17, he became the youngest-ever goalscorer in Euro history and played a key role in Spain's tournament victory. Cristiano Ronaldo Sr., now 40, is preparing to represent Portugal in what would be his sixth FIFA World Cup appearance in 2026, a feat no male footballer has achieved before. He previously played in the 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, and 2022 editions. While Ronaldo Jr.'s statement appeared more supportive than dismissive, it unintentionally overlooked Yamal's recent major international win. The moment has reignited ongoing comparisons between football's most established icons and its emerging stars, a common theme as a new generation of talent rises. Both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lamine Yamal continue to draw global attention, one as a veteran preparing for a final tournament, the other as a teenager already achieving major milestones.
