Tyla ‘friend-zones’ Twitch streamer Kai Cenat after he asks singer out on date in ‘painful’ live video
POPULAR Twitch streamer Kai Cenat has been awkwardly shot down after asking singer Tyla for a date.
And the whole world got to watch.
Kai is an online streamer and YouTuber, famous for his comedy content.
But his latest stream left him anything but laughing, as he shared a live conversation with the Water singer.
While answering a question from a fan, Kai, 22, took his shot.
“Tyla, would you like to go on a date with me?”
The fellow 22-year-old seemed immediately taken aback by the proposal.
“Are you asking for real?” she replied, covering her face in shock. “Don’t do that!”
“I’m serious,” he replied. “When you got some free time, would you like to go on a date with me?”
Tyla stuttered and stammered as she tried to think of her response.
“But we’re friends, though,” she finally said, after a few moments of tension between the two.
A clearly defeated Kai could only agree, “You’re right,” before moving on to another question.
Tyla gently placed her hand on his arm, in a consoling manner, after crushing his dreams.
After the cringy video was shared online, ruthless fans let Kai have it.
“Kai suffering really makes me smile,” one person tweeted on X, formerly Twitter.
“What’s wrong with you?” another demanded.
“It gotta be tough to be the biggest streamer in the world and still get friend-zoned,” a third added.

NYC RIOT
Last August, Kai held an ill-fated PlayStation 5 giveaway in New York City’s Union Square.
Kai took to Instagram to announce he was doing a giveaway, just hours before he landed in New York City from Japan.
He wrote: “F**k it, NYC! Tomorrow 8/4 Huge Giveaway At 14 ST Union Square Park 4:00 PM. BE THERE.”
And be there they were. Around 1pm, a small crowd began to gather, however, by 4 pm, the giveaway amassed over 2,000 individuals.
By 4:30, the New York City Police Department issued a level four mobilization, the highest level of disaster response in the city.
Soon after, authorities attempted to disassemble the large group.
