Who Is Tota MC? Meet Streamer University's Viral Brazilian Star
In this ever changing streaming world, with new voices emerging almost daily, this person has risen with great speed and attraction. Relatively new to the scene, the Brazilian streamer is one of the best participants of the high-profile incubator for fledgling creators, the so-called "Streamer University" by Kai Cenat.
From São Paulo Beats to Streaming Rockstar
Before entering the realm of Twitch, Tota used to be recognized widely in the underground music scene of Brazil as a music producer. This creative energy combined with a fast wit went down smoothly through his entry into streaming in April 2024. Early on, his "Just Chatting" streams, which were part social commentary and part entertainment, gained modest attention amongst Portuguese-speaking-ranked people, eventually transcending borders.
What makes Tota special is his emphasis on interactivity. He does not merely react to trending clips or memes; it's a connection that builds, thus sparking the engagement that dissolves the division typically perceived between shows and the show audience. This genuineness has skyrocketed him from 31,000 followers in early 2025 to over 174,000 in a matter of months. Instagram sings a very similar tune, with a devoted 143,000 fans looking to catch his daily antics.
A Seat at the Big Table: Streamer University
An influencer of the magnitude of Cenat himself had heard about Tota's rise and so invited him into Streamer University — the very first content training camp going on from May 22 to May 25, 2025. It is shaped by Cenat alongside AMP's Duke Dennis, rapper DDG, streaming star India Love, and cooking personality Kya 'Cookingwitkya' to fast-track newly discovered talents.
For Tota, this is way beyond being the spotlight; it is a master class in global streaming culture.
Apart from learning from internet veterans, he is showing that language and geography are no longer obstacles in achieving digital fame.

Representing a Brazilian Voice on the World Scene
The story of Tota MC is a story of representation as well, about numbers and viral moments. As a Portuguese-speaking creator gaining traction in an English-dominated space, his stake in Streamer University signals a growing shift in what global influence looks like online.
With grit, hustle, and so much cultural pride, Tota MC is not just learning — he is leading. Clearly, this is but the beginning of this chapter.

Korean woman runs into trouble in Turkey for showing peace sign: ‘As a Turkish, I never heard that sign is banned'
It is not uncommon for people to show a peace sign while taking selfies or making reels. That is what this Korean woman was doing while visiting Turkey, but it led to her getting a warning from the authorities, who told her that the particular sign is banned in the country. The video, however, has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some Turkish people claiming they have never heard about the ban on the sign. A Korean content creator who got a warning for showing a peace sign. (Instagram/@tyongeee) South Korean content creator Tyongee posted the video on Instagram. She wrote, 'I did not know at all! It's amazing how I get to learn a new culture and manner whenever I travel.' In the video, she poses for a selfie while showing the peace sign. However, two men instantly call her out and tell her that the sign is banned in Turkey and that she shouldn't flash it. When asked why, one of the men says, 'In your culture, it means peace, but unfortunately in Turkey, it is raised about terrorism,' leaving the Korean woman visibly shocked. Curious, Tyongee asks the men if a mini heart sign is allowed, and they say that she can flash that popular sign. Social media had a lot to say: While many expressed surprise, some claiming to be Turkish said they were unaware of the sign ban. An individual posted, 'I like that they actually explained to her very calmly.' Another asked, 'But why is it related to terrorism?' An individual replied, 'This symbol is frequently used by the terrorist organisation called the PKK, which has caused the deaths of many civilians in Turkey. Because of this, it may provoke negative reactions from civilians in Turkey.' A third remarked, 'As a Turkish, I have never heard that a sign is banned. They just made it up... It must be their personal thoughts. We use it and it's super common.' A fourth wrote, 'They were respectful, and the girl was respectful. That's how people should talk every time.'

Anupam Kher's Birthday Note For ‘God Of Acting' Robert De Niro: ‘You Have Inspired Millions'
"I feel honoured, humbled and privileged to know you as a friend," Anupam Kher wrote in his note to Robert De Niro. Anupam Kher has been in the spotlight recently with his directorial venture Tanvi The Great, a film that has earned praise not only from Indian audiences but also from Hollywood legend Robert De Niro. Their enduring friendship drew attention once again on August 17, when Robert De Niro celebrated his birthday. Kher, who fondly refers to him as the 'God of Acting," shared a heartfelt post on social media. The Bollywood star revealed how 'honoured, humbled and privileged" he feels to have Robert De Niro as a friend. Anupam Kher also admired the Taxi Driver star's dedication and talent, saying his work has inspired performers across the world. Taking to Instagram, Kher treated fans with a series of special moments with De Niro. The post included a touching photo of the two friends hugging during one of their earlier meetings. Another picture was from the New York Indian Film Festival, where Kher received support from his best friend from Hollywood. Alongside these, Kher also shared photos that captured their bond over the years, different events and gatherings. In the caption, Anupam Kher wrote, 'Happy Birthday, Dearest Mr Robert De Niro. May God give you all the happiness in the world. You have inspired millions of actors (including me) all over the world with your HARD WORK and BRILLIANCE. The easiest expression to use in your case is that you are the God of Acting in the truest sense. I feel honoured, humbled and privileged to know you as a friend. May you have a long and healthy life. Love and Prayers always." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Anupam Kher (@anupampkher) An Emotional Moment For Anupam Kher In the past interview with India TV, Anupam Kher, praising the Hollywood star, had said, 'In my view, Robert De Niro is the God of acting. Back in drama school, we would watch his films like The Godfather, Raging Bull, Falling in Love and many others. He is an institution in himself. Just as I consider Dilip Kumar a legend here in India, I feel De Niro holds that place globally, as one of the greatest artists in the world. I even got the chance to work with him in Silver Linings Playbook." 'When I first met Robert De Niro, I told the assistant, 'I don't want to meet him on set. I am his devotee, truly his admirer. Please arrange for me to meet him in his van.' The assistant must have told him that an actor from India wanted to meet him. I carried a beautiful idol of Lord Ganesha with me and presented it to him in his van. When I saw Robert De Niro right in front of me, I couldn't believe it. Tears filled my eyes out of respect," Anupam Kher added. According to the actor, 'He seemed a little uncomfortable and asked what had happened. I told him, 'No, sir, I am simply overwhelmed. I'm the son of a clerk from the Forest Department in Shimla, and through hard work, I've reached a point where I'm standing before Robert De Niro. That thought brought tears to my eyes.' He said, 'Okay, fine. Very good. I'm very happy to meet you.' We took a photo together. But when we later reached the set, he was no longer the same Robert De Niro I had met in the van—he had fully transformed into his character." Tanvi The Great featured Anupam Kher, Shubhangi Dutt, Iain Glen, Boman Irani and Jackie Shroff. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Indian Man, Married To US Woman, Gives Hilarious Take On Love Vs Arranged Marriage
A video of an Indian man's witty reply on love versus arranged marriage with an American wife has gone viral, highlighting the differences between Indian and American perspectives on marriage. The video was shared on Instagram by the couple, Deepak and Hannah, with the caption, "It was definitely an arranged marriage." Watch the video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Deepak and Hannah (@deepakandhannah) In the video, the couple can be seen discussing the unusual questions they often face after getting married to each other. Deepak asked his wife, "What's the weirdest thing people ask you after getting married to me?" Hannah said social media users often ask, "If I have a sister for them to marry." She also said that users are interested in babies. She then asked Deepak the same question. He replied jokingly that people ask whether their marriage was an arranged or a love marriage. He said, "How can it be possible? Like my parents went to Michigan, America, to find a woman for me? Of course, it is a love marriage, guys." Arranged marriages are common in India, with parents playing a vital role in selecting partners based on factors like family background, income and social standing. Meanwhile, American culture focuses on individual choice, with people often selecting partners based on personal compatibility and love. The post also suggests that the couple likely faced challenges navigating these cultural differences, but their experience may also have brought benefits. Here's how social media users reacted "Sisters hahah get it all the time too!!! You're so cute, guys." one user wrote. "I get it though. My kids are half Indian and they are bloody adorable...... just saying," another said. "Agree with the asking to set up with family members or anyone from US. Those are such strange messages to receive. We like to joke our marriage was self arranged," a third added.
