"RuPaul's Drag Race star Kori King has gone viral in a clip where she puts popular streamer IShowSpeed in his place during his visit to a drag cabaret event. The 20-year-old streamer, who goes by Speed (real name Darren Jason Watkins Jr.) met Kori King, the "Black Barbie of Boston," outside Jacques' Cabaret, leading to a viral interaction between the pair."
"King, dressed in a bright pink glittering dress and boots, reminds Speed: "This is my domain. It is my show. I'm just letting you know if you're ready for the show." "I'm ready for the show," Speed insists, seemingly unaware it's a drag cabaret show. King then opens the door for Speed, but steps in front of him and leads him into the venue. It seems Speed wasn't entirely sure about what he was walking into."
"Speed is one of the most prolific YouTube streamers. Rolling Stone crowned him the 'Most Influential Creator of 2025', referring to him as a "global phenomenon." He is currently on a 35-day trip across the US, streaming continuously throughout his tour of 25 states. While in Boston, Massachusetts, he met King. When Speed approached the door of Jacques' Cabaret, King stops him and says: "This is MY show. Hold on!""
Kori King, a RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 competitor who finished ninth and gained a dedicated online following, stopped streamer Darren "Speed" Watkins Jr. outside Jacques' Cabaret in Boston. The 20-year-old streamer approached the venue during a 35-day, 25-state streaming tour and was met by King, who asserted, "This is MY show" and led him inside while reminding him the cabaret was her domain. Speed appeared uncertain about the nature of the event, joked that "cabaret" was a French dish, briefly exited, then returned and attempted to heckle. King shut down the heckling and received praise online, earning comparisons to RuPaul.
