IShowSpeed celebrates after getting a Rolando tattoo on livestream

It's no secret that IShowSpeed is a massive Ronaldo fan. He even traveled to the United Kingdom last year in the hopes of meeting the football legend in person for the first time.

On December 29, 2022, the YouTuber had a conversation with Portuguese footballer Rafael Leão, who revealed that Ronaldo knew who the YouTuber was.

Darren took things a step further on January 12, when he got a tattoo of his idol and revealed it to his audience during the final moments of the broadcast. After counting down from three, the Ohio native exclaimed:

"Sui! Sui!"

He started kissing the tattoo, but an associate told him not to because it could potentially spread germs on his skin. A few moments later, the streamer added that Ronaldo was his GOAT (Greatest of All Time), saying:

"I love you, Ronaldo! Sui, bro! You're my GOAT, you're my idol! I look up to you every day! I love you so much, Ronaldo!"
