US social media personality Ishowspeed, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr., is expected to arrive in Helsinki on Monday as part of his European tour. Police in the Finnish capital say they are prepared for the visit but are not deploying extra re reported that his unannounced appearance in a local Ikea store caused a commotion. Fans cheered and followed him while he live-streamed from inside the store.
“I’m going to try Swedish meatballs now,” he said during the broadcast.
In a later YouTube stream, he responded to the attention.
“I just wanted to chill, but thousands of kids showed up,” he said.
No major incidents were reported during the Sweden visit, but police there monitored the situation closely. The crowd size and behaviour were similar to previous appearances in other European cities on the tour.
Helsinki Police have not issued any warnings or event restrictions but said they would keep an eye on any developing situations related to the visit.
