McDonald’s has teased a forthcoming collaboration with Twitch streamer Kai Cenat, and fans are already theorizing what it may consist of. While Kai Cenat has collaborated with celebrities before, this is the first time the Twitch star has teamed up with a food chain of this magnitude.
Although Kai Cenat recently lost his Twitch subscriber record, he remains one of the platform’s most successful streamers in history. The 22-year-old rose in popularity for his assorted content, ranging from lengthy gaming marathons to inviting major stars like Nicki Minaj on his streams. Kai Cenat has earned millions of followers across his social media accounts, with over 13 million solely on Twitch. Evidently, this fame has allowed him to work with multiple brands, and it seems a new partnership with a particular food chain is next in store for Kai Cenat.
McDonald’s has teased a collaboration with Kai Cenat through a mysterious post on its social media. The food and drink franchise posted a picture of a McDonald’s meal bag lying in front of what is unmistakably Kai Cenat’s gaming setup. “Chat’s about to pop off,” reads the caption, referencing how streamers refer to their viewers. A date can be seen on the meal’s bill too, suggesting that the collaboration might be announced on October 10. This isn’t the first time a prominent company has seen potential in working with Kai Cenat. Not long ago, Rockstar Games reached out to Kai Cenat about an opportunity to meet up.

A closer look at the bill featured on McDonald’s post will also reveal a list of items from its menu, including medium fries, a Sprite, and one “Not not a Big Mac”. However, what may be more intriguing about the bill is the text “Special item coming to a chat near you. Valid at participating McDonald’s. TEL. +1 (707) 932-4826. KC#3.” The phone number corresponds to a McDonald’s text line that the food chain has previously used for special events. Kai Cenat’s followers will likely have to text this number to find out more about this collaboration. Meanwhile, “KC#3” potentially references “Kai Cenat 3”, a nickname that the streamer created for himself.
Fans are already speculating that the collaboration will consist of a special meal, which McDonald’s has done with other celebrities like J Balvin and BTS. Other users pointed out that October 10 is also the date for an important Tesla event and think the two might be related. Kai Cenat’s fans will have to wait for an official announcement for more information. Aside from this team-up with McDonald’s, the Twitch streamer has more large projects in the future. Earlier this year, Kai Cenat teased a big music event called KC Fest and promised a very exciting setlist.
Kai Cenat’s potential collaboration with McDonald’s could greatly benefit both parties. The Twitch streamer might reach an even larger audience and the food chain would definitely gather a number of buyers. Considering that McDonald’s recent crossover with Genshin Impact sparked some criticism, a collaboration with a top content creator could be a smart move.
