FaZe Clan July 4th party recap: All viral controversies, streamer drama, comebacks, beefs, and more!
Every July 4th brings fireworks, but this year, FaZe Clan's explosive Independence Day party in LA set the internet on fire in more ways than one. What started as a mega gathering of streamers, creators, and online icons quickly turned into a headline-worthy spectacle filled with viral moments, unexpected reunions, confrontations, and drama.
Here's a breakdown of everything that had the internet talking.
1. A Star-Studded Chaos Streamed Live
From Twitch to Twitter, FaZe's July 4th bash dominated timelines. Not only did top-tier creators like Extra Emily, Plaqueboymax, and Sakura Shymko make appearances, but streamers from OTK, OTV, and even YouTube influencers joined the madness. With multiple livestreams running simultaneously and cameras everywhere, the party became one big unfiltered reality show — broadcast straight to the internet.
2. 'Jakura' Kiss Breaks the Internet
Nothing got fans more excited than a surprise 'Jakura' moment, the now-fan-favorite duo Jason (Jasontheween) and Sakura Shymko. During a casual photo op, Sakura gave Jason a kiss on the cheek, sending him into an adorable meltdown on stream.
'Oh my God… ain't no way bruh,' Jason exclaimed as he blushed and walked off-camera.
The moment went instantly viral, with fans fueling relationship rumors and clipping the interaction from every angle. "Jakura" just became the ship of the season.
3. NotQuiteLikeDub vs. FaZe Security
One of the more awkward moments of the night involved streamer NotQuiteLikeDub.

While others freely streamed the party, Dub was told by FaZe security to stop broadcasting or leave.
'If I can't stream it, I can't be here,' he said before walking out.
Plaqueboymax Returns To Stream
4. Plaqueboymax's Unexpected Return
After a month-long hiatus from streaming, FaZe's own Plaqueboymax made a surprise appearance that had fans buzzing. Though he didn't go live himself, Max popped up in multiple livestreams, most notably in an emotional moment with fellow FaZe member Lacy.
'We gon' take a shot, I swear to God…' Max said as he warmed up to the party vibe.
Extra Emily also fangirled during her interaction with Max, making it one of the most rewatched clips of the night.
5. Wendy Ortiz Caught in Late-Night Altercation
As night fell, the mood shifted. Streamer Wendy Ortiz was caught on camera in a heated altercation outside the FaZe house.
'Get the fk out of here, bch, you're f**king weird!' she shouted at another attendee.
Security intervened quickly, separating Wendy and the other woman before things escalated further. Wendy's sister Evelyn also joined in, adding fuel to the fire. Fortunately, things were defused before any real damage was done — but not before clips of the incident blew up online.
6. Extra Emily and Stable Ronaldo's Tense-but-Playful Face-Off
In a semi-spicy, mostly-funny exchange, Extra Emily confronted Stable Ronaldo poolside, demanding compensation for 'five hate threads.'
He replied with 'How about five apologies?' and actually delivered. What could've been a tense feud turned into a quirky apology segment, reminding everyone: streamers are way too online — even at parties.
Viral Clips Take Over Twitch and TikTok
By the end of the night, FaZe's party had taken over the internet. At one point, 4 of the top 8 most-viewed Twitch clips in 24 hours came directly from the party. TikTok wasn't far behind — short clips of Jason and Sakura, Max's cameos, and Wendy's altercation racked up millions of views within hours.
Stay tuned. Because if this is how FaZe celebrates freedom, the next party might just break the internet all over again.

Image credits: Getty Images Celebrities have this magical aura that you can't ever deny, if you like them and their work. They say among the most loyal people in the world are fans who will follow your advice on everything from makeup products to food preferences. With the summer breeze flowing through the air, people are gravitating more and more towards vacations and drinks. In this scenario, many fans of Lady Gaga, one of the most popular singers across the globe, have been trying out her signature drink and the reviews were absolutely unexpected. In a Vanity Fair YouTube video titled "Lady Gaga Takes a Lie Detector Test" the pop star shared that she drinks red wine in an unusual way. When asked by the interviewer to explain, she said "with maraschino cherries and Diet Coke." While the interview was published in February, the influencers and followers have been trying out the drink during the summer. The drink has an official name- kalimotxo or calimocho and comes from the Basque Country of Spain. In the more popular version, it consists of red wine mixed with cola, while some like to mix it with lime soda or orange pop. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like She's 75 and Retiring - Her Handcrafted Jewelry Is 80% OFF Artisan Weekly Read More Undo Do the netizens like Lady Gaga's signature drink? Image credits: Getty Images A TikToker recently tried the drink and shared that "you can't really tell" the different flavours of the red wine and coke when mixed together. 'The two together … kind of cancel each other out, both very subtle,' she said. Another content creator described it as a "boozy cherry coke, but with rich tannins from the red wine." However, they added that they won't be having it again. "It's not completely foul, it is mayhem in a glass." One influencer actually made the drink at home and actually liked it, saying, "This is getting a well yes from me. I'll definitely be drinking more of these." 'Gaga definitely stole that idea from 16-year-old me when I was trying to fool my dad that I don't drink,' one person joked. "Been doing that for years! Red wine with diet squirt. It's good on hot summer days." wrote a person on X. "If anyone's gonna stir up chaos with a cocktail, it's Gaga. May not be for everyone, but that's kinda the point," added another. The drink, however, is not a new concoction. Numerous Europeans confirmed that it's been a staple in bars for years, especially in the late 2000s. For those who love trying new drink flavours, Lady Gaga's signature drink might be worth a try.
