Ned Luke facepalms over GTA 6 fan theory linking Tracy De Santa
Source: Rockstar Games
GTA 6 anticipation has fans pouring over every frame of the trailer, attempting to link it to past games. One fan theory recently went viral, with the
"mud girl"
in the first trailer being suggested as Tracy De Santa, Michael's daughter from GTA 5. Ned Luke, the voice actor for Michael, replied with a straightforward but revealing facepalm emoji, fueling discussion throughout the GTA community.
Ned Luke reacts to Tracy De Santa theory with a facepalm
Ned Luke's response to the theory was concise but emphatic. When a fan posited that the
"mud girl"
in the
GTA 6 trailer
could be an older Tracy De Santa, Luke took to social media and replied with a simple facepalm emoji. Most took this as his way of shutting down the theory altogether, which meant that the fan speculation was way off the mark.

The community was quick to catch onto his reaction. On Reddit and other fan forums, some players praised Luke for being honest and dispelling misinformation early, proposing that stretching connections between games can sometimes go too far. Others did argue that there are still points of comparison between Tracy and
'mud girl'
in the trailer, and that Luke's reaction shouldn't shut down creative fan theories entirely.
Fans polarized on theory and Ned Luke's fan interaction
While Ned Luke's facepalm did fuel the debate, it also served to expose his complex relationship with the GTA fan base. Most fans love his humor and straightforward interaction with fans, particularly his analysis of GTA 6's initial trailer. His open, no-filter style tends to provide a new angle that fans value.
But some believe that his condescending or sarcastic tone too often puts parts of the community off, particularly those who like to theorize and link past GTA games. This episode illustrates just how much passion is wrapped up in the GTA franchise, eager to argue theories, tidbits, and character connections even years down the line.
Ned Luke's plain facepalm sparked an even larger discussion among fans willing to connect GTA 6 to previous installments. Whether interpreted as putting the kibosh on outlandish rumors or merely enjoying the humor, his response again validates the community's involvement in each and every piece of information Rockstar releases.

GTA 6 available for download on Xbox Store almost a year ahead of its launch date, but with a catch…
Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA VI) is reportedly available for download on Xbox Series X/S consoles, nearly a year ahead of its May 2026 release date. This unexpected availability has generated excitement among fans. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now In a post shared on the social media platform X (earlier Twitter) by a page named GTA 6 Alerts, some players were able to download the game to their consoles from the Microsoft Store, either via the web or directly through the console's store. However, we at TOi Tech tried looking for it on the web version of the Microsoft Store for Xbox consoles and were unable to find the same. The X post notes that given the download size of only 328.76 MB, combined with the game's distant release date, indicates this is not an early playable version. GTA VI is not yet available for pre-order, which rules out the possibility of an early beta release from Rockstar. The post also noted that attempting to launch the downloaded file displays the game's cover art briefly before closing and returning the user to the Xbox dashboard. The post even includes a short clip of how the downloaded game file reacts when users try to access it. Rockstar may have made GTA 6's Xbox page live weeks after PS5 According to a report by Rockstar Intel, According to a report by Rockstar Intel, GTA 6 maker Rockstar is allowing Xbox Series X|S users to wishlist the game and view its store page. This comes weeks after the PlayStation 5 listing went live shortly after the release of the GTA 6 Trailer 2. While Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two, had promised Xbox wishlisting would arrive 'soon,' it ultimately took around seven weeks to become available. 7 Things You May Have Missed in the GTA 6 Second Trailer Earlier this week, Rockstar Games finally made the GTA 6 Xbox Store page live, accessible via both Xbox consoles and the official website, the report claims. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The listing includes the game's illustrative artwork from the second trailer, several screenshots, both released trailers, and a detailed game description. Xbox is also reportedly allowing users to download this placeholder file; however, pre-orders aren't live yet; the file will auto-update once pre-loading begins. The game can't be played yet and shows an ownership error when launched. The page also doesn't confirm when the game will go live. Meanwhile, on the PlayStation store, the GTA 6 page states that the game will be playable at 12 am BST (which is 4.30 pm IST).

Ravi Kishan Flaunts Ripped Physique; Fans Say ‘Salman Bhai Pro Max'
Last Updated: Ravi Kishan's latest gym photos go viral as fans compare him to Salman Khan. Netizens call it the 'Sallufication of Ravi'. See viral reactions here. Actor and politician Ravi Kishan is back in the spotlight, and this time, it's not just for his upcoming film Son of Sardaar 2. Known for being active on social media, Ravi recently shared a few gym photos that left the internet doing a double take — with many fans comparing his physique and aura to none other than Salman Khan. On Thursday, Ravi posted pictures flaunting his triceps and biceps after a rigorous workout session, captioning it, 'Meditative state." The images, drenched in sweat and intensity, quickly went viral. A Reddit user reposted the pictures with the caption, 'Took me a moment to realise it's not Salman Khan," sparking a flurry of amused and amazed reactions. Fans chimed in with comments like, 'The Sallufication of Ravi," 'Every day he looks more and more like Salmon Bhoi," 'Brother Ravi, you are looking like Salman Khan — same body and face too," and 'Salman Bhai Pro Max." One even wrote, 'Confused — Salman ya Ravi Kishan?" The resemblance, according to the internet, is uncanny — and hilarious. Ravi Kishan, whose fitness journey has always been part of his public persona, seems to be levelling up ahead of the release of Son of Sardaar 2.
