On October 7, the FaZe Clan community was treated to pure madness and charm when content streamer Tara Yummy burst into Alexander “FaZE Adapt” Purnell’s live stream with the kind of gift that only she would be able to bring: a giant, life size poster of herself.
The streamer, synonymous with his non-stop commentary and incessant interaction with Yummy, was in the midst of a session when she showed him the humongous print, declaring that it was high time that he retired his previous flag. And then, was the back-and-forth that had people spam chat, clip every second, and wonder just how close the two have gotten behind the scenes.
The Moment Tara Took Over His Stream
“You can put a new one up,” she encouraged, holding the poster out.
Adapt squinted, taken aback. “What the f*** is this?”
“It’s me,” she beamed, rotating it in all its splendor.
“Oh my god. Wait, other side.”
The poster was actually a doctored promo photograph of Tara Yummy, with her signature products: Flirting is my day job.
“You think that will fit?” Adapt cackled, cradling the enormous print in her arms like a trophy.
One Slip of the Tongue That Left Fans Reeling
While bantering, Adapt incidentally let on that the two had previously spent the day together that day at his home. That little information was all it took to put the internet detectives into a frenzy. In minutes, fans speculated about whether their on-stream chemistry has carried over into real life.
Pouring fuel on the flames, Adapt didn’t restrain his praise either: he nonchalantly labeled Yummy as the most significant thing in his life, something that rang out louder even than any music playing in the background or gunfire in his game.
The Running Joke that Headlined the Paper
The giant poster was more than just a joke gift, though, as a symbol of their on-going partnership. Adapt and Yummy have transformed into a streaming couple defined by inside joke references, unapologetic flirting, and scenes that blur the lines between show and reality.
“I forget that you’re so small,” Adapt bantered, making Tara and the chat chuckle.
“I just feel like, totally outdated. That picture,” she retorted, gesturing at his outdated décor before declaring her poster a suitable replacement.
