IShowSpeed reacts after MrBeast tags him in a faceswapped photo on X

YouTube star Darren "IShowSpeed" recently reacted to being tagged in a post on X by YouTube star Jimmy "MrBeast." The post showcased a picture of two individuals whose faces had been swapped with those of Speed and MrBeast, with the two dressed in street-style clothing.

MrBeast tags IShowSpeed in a post on X containing a photo with their faces swapped in

IShowSpeed and MrBeast are known to be on-screen collaborators and friends, with Speed having been a part of many of MrBeast's projects. One example is MrBeast's "Largest Treadmill" Challenge, which took place right before the Sidemen Charity match-up 2025.

Another instance was when IShowSpeed partook in a wipeout-style obstacle course challenge organized by MrBeast against fellow YouTuber Olajide "KSI." He even won $100,000 in the process, of which he decided to donate $50,000 to the Palestine Relief Fund.

Now, seeing MrBeast seemingly randomly tagging him in a post on X, IShowSpeed was left visibly bemused and even asked his audience what he should reply to MrBeast's comment under the post:

"Why did MrBeast tag me in this sh**? Why did he tag me in this sh**. This was me and MrBeast in the hood. I'm like, what the f**k did he tag me in? What should i reply to him? Like, chat, what should I reply to MrBeast?"

IShowSpeed and MrBeast have interacted on X in the past as well, with IShowSpeed recently volunteering to partake after MrBeast jokingly asked for candidates for testing out the "100 men versus 1 gorilla" battle, which has become an internet meme.
