Welcome back to Top 10 Gaming!
The channel where we list off all things video
games.
Including Fortnite!
We’re back at it again talking about the
game with the best and beefiest battle royale
on the block, and this time, we’re turning
our gaze from the game itself to those who
play it.
While Fortnite is without a doubt popular
amongst the masses, it’s also caught the
attention of multiple celebrities, who have
been pretty open about their adoration of
the game.
So today, we’re counting down the top 10
celebrities playing fortnite.
And some of them may surprise you!
10 Chance the Rapper
Chance the Rapper often posts photos and videos
of him playing Fortnite on his Instagram.
But he’s also got some very important opinions
about the game, which he’s vocalized on
Twitter.
Back in February of this year, the rapper
tweeted out, I quote, “can we get a fortnite
on switch @nintendoAmerica”.
I think that’s something that many Switch
fans could get behind.
9 Norm Macdonald
For those of you unfamiliar with Norm Macdonald,
he’s a Canadian comedian who was on SNL
for five seasons back in the day, but he’s
also been in a slew of other comedy films
and specials, a lot of which are classics.
These days, he’s got a Netflix talk show
in the works, but he’s also been busy playing
Fortnite, and tweeted out, “There is no
one who can beat me at Fortnite.
And I mean NO ONE!!”
Multiple exclamation points.
That being said, some fans have speculated
that he may just be joking.
But regardless, we think it’d be pretty
fantastic – and hilarious – facing off
against him in battle royale.
Here’s hoping he was being sincere.
8 Alfie Deyes
Popular Youtubers are also getting into Fortnite,
including Alfie Deyes.
Alfie, whose Pointless Blog Vlogs have over
4 million subscribers, has been seen playing
the game on his channel, along with his pals,
including Mark Ferris, and Zoella’s brother,
Joe Sugg in recent videos.
He also actively tweets about the game a lot,
and seems to have the same trouble that most
of us have – play Fortnite, or do other
important life things?
Yeah, most of us chose Fortnite, too.
7 Travis Scott
Unless you’ve been living under a rock these
past several weeks, you’re probably fully
aware that one of the biggest Twitch streams
of Fortnite happened recently with a few fairly
big celebrities and ex-competitive gamer/
Fortnite superstar, Ninja.
More on that later though.
One of the celebrities that partook in the
stream was Travis Scott, an American rapper,
singer, songwriter and producer, who is also
well known for his relationship with Kylie
Jenner.
At one point during the stream, he asked our
next number for bandaids – he meant bandages
– and the internet – and Ninja – had
a good old lulz over that.
6 JuJu Smith-Schuster
Speaking of that epic stream, let’s talk
about one of the other players who joined
in the fun – NFL Player JuJu Smith-Schuster.
While the 21 year old is known for being a
wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steerlers,
these days, he’s becoming a pretty big YouTuber.
He’s got a whole crew that he plays Fortnite
with, and in one video, he went on a $20,000
shopping spree with his crew from FaZe Clan
at the Adidas store in Santa Monica.
5 Joe Jonas
Some of you might have some pretty groan worthy
opinions of Joe Jonas if you weren’t fans
of the Jonas Brothers back in the day.
But these days, Joe has gotten a lot cooler,
not only with his new musical endeavors with
his band DNCE, but also with gaming.
He’s jumped on the Fortnite bandwagon, and
he actually tweeted out his handle, CrackedPig8153,
tweeting “come join my team”.
4 Finn Wolfhard
One of the first known celebrities to be playing
Fortnite, The Stranger Things star is known
to be an avid player of the game, and even
streamed himself and his brother Nick Wolfhard
playing the game together back in December
2017.
His brother is a prominent Twitch Streamer,
and has over 38,000 followers as of this recording.
Their stream pulled in over 40,000 views.
3 Josh Hart
Most of you may know Josh Hart as the 23 year
old rookie for the LA Lakers.
But he’s also a huge fan of Fortnite.
He’s even started his own Twitch channel.
Hart also got himself a pair of custom Fortnite
themed nikes in purple and green, with the
words ‘eliminated by JoshHartNova’ in
the Fortnite font on its side, along with
a picture of his avatar on one shoe, and on
the other, his avatar holding onto a glider.
Now that’s commitment to the game.
2 Roseanne Barr
Perhaps the most surprising on this list,
Roseanne Barr of Roseanne fame – duh – plays
Fortnite.
The 65 year old admitted on her twitter that,
I quote, “I have 20 fortnite victory royale
wins”.
As you can imagine, twitter was like WTF.
I mean, yeah, she technically called it victory
royale instead of battle royale – as many
people were quick to correct her on – but
also, she’s ROSEANNE.
If she wants to gloat about her gaming stats,
let her!
1 DRAKE
Drake made HUGE headlines when he hopped on
a stream with Twitch icon Ninja back in March,
and played along him and Travis Scott and
Juju Smith-Schuster.
Not only did the event make it in the top
4 trending topics across the US simultaneously,
it also became the most viewed Stream by a
single player in Twitch history.
The stream hit 630,000 views, breaking the
previous 388,000 record.
During the stream, Drake told Ninja that he’s
been playing Fortnite for a few mon ths now,
and watching Ninja play on YouTube while taking
breaks from recording his new album.
There we have it friends!
