Fortniteis making waves in the news with the launch of Chapter 2 and the release of a brand new map. It’s no surprise that withFortnitegetting so much attention, the game’s most popular streamer, Ninja, is also taking in some of the spotlight. His interaction with Lady Gaga may not have worked out particularly well for him, but it’s certainly making the news. Now another celebrity wants in on some of the fun. Food Network star Guy Fieri is ready to play someFortnite.
Amidst the ongoing internet drama surroundingLady Gaga dismissing Ninja, Fieri has decided to join in on the fun. Fieri posted a message on Twitter saying, “Where we droppin' @Ninja?” The popular restauranteur apparently wants to be Ninja’s nextFortnitepartner in crime. Fans of Ninja andFortnitewill likely recall Ninka’s livestream playing with musician Drake, which proved a memorable moment for all parties involved, includingFortnite.

What makesGuy Fieri’s post on Twitter so special, however, is that it comes with an image depicting Fieri as aFortnitecharacter. It’s a surprisingly detailed depiction of Fieri, featuring his bleached blonde hair and a fiery collared shirt. The icing on the cake, however, is the “FLAVORTOWN” sign in the background, as if it had replaced Hollywood’s iconic sign. An odd and somewhat uncomfortable amount of time went into making Fieri’sFortnitepersona.
Ninja, to his credit, retweeted Guy Fieri’s invitation. And while there’s no word as to whether Ninja accepted the invitation, it’s clearly being received well by everyone involved. At the very least, fans of both Ninja and Guy Fieri can have fun with the tweet. And who knows, maybe Guy Fieri will show up onNinja’s Mixer streamto play a few rounds ofFortnitein the next few weeks or months. Anything is possible.
The entire Guy Fieri situation came about as a result of Ninja’s interaction withLady Gaga. Lady Gaga, who has spoken about playing video games on Twitter before, posted a message asking “What’s fortnight” this past week. Ninja responded, telling Lady Gaga to call him and that he could give her “a Million Reasons to play.” Lady Gaga then posted again, tagging Ninja and asking “who are you.” Lady Gaga may not know about Ninja andFortnite, but Guy Fieri does. While Ninja’s ego may be bruised, he’s hopefully made a new friend.
Fortniteis available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, Xbox One, and mobile devices.
