Fortnite came out in 2017. After earning the reputation of having a largely very young fanbase, Fortnite developed into a game that pretty much everyone has tried out at least once, including some of our favorite celebrities. Next time you die in Fortnite, maybe double check who killed you.

When Celebrities Get On Fortnite

Over the last few years, Fortnite came out with a lot of celebrity collaborations. There are skins for Bruno Mars, Sabrina Carpenter, Hatsune Miku and many more – including Doja Cat. And Doja Cat is one of the celebrities who not only collaborated with the game, but who have also played it themselves. A clip of small streamer smoochylol where she got killed by someone using the Doja Cat skin went viral, except the other person wasn't just using the skin: It was actually Doja Cat herself.

The clip is completely silent, neither the streamer nor the rapper are talking. After Doja Cat finally wins the 1v1, she gets up from her chair and starts emoting, both in game and in real life. But Doja Cat is not the only celebrity who has explored the world of Fortnite.

What do you think? Is losing a 1v1 easier to accept if the opponent is a celebrity or does that make it worse? Let us know in the comments!
