Who is Landon Nickerson, the American gamer, YouTuber who cheated on his pregnant fiancee
Landon Nickerson, once a fan-favorite in the YouTube gaming world, is now making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Known for his lively videos and chill vibes online, Landon's personal life has taken a messy turn—and the internet is not staying quiet about it.

The drama started when Liz Wizard—better known online as The Wizard Liz—exposed Landon for cheating on her while she was four months pregnant. In an emotional Instagram story on May 27, 2025, Liz shared that Landon had created a secret Snapchat account to talk to another woman. That woman eventually reached out to one of Liz's friends with receipts, blowing the whole thing wide open.
Landon Nickerson and Liz Wizard were married?
But here's the twist: turns out Landon and Liz weren't just engaged—they were secretly married.
After getting engaged in September 2024, they apparently tied the knot quietly. Clues came from a deleted Instagram post from Landon and a resurfaced TikTok comment from Liz, both calling each other husband and wife. So yeah, it wasn't just fiancé-level betrayal—it was husband-level.
Landon did respond, but not in a way that helped. He posted (then deleted) a video where he admitted to the 'mistake,' calling it a "5–10 minute" lapse in judgment.
Basically, he tried to downplay the whole thing, which didn't sit well with anyone. Fans called him out, and the backlash was swift.
Meanwhile, Liz handled things with class. She's planning to sell her $100,000 engagement ring and donate the money to single mothers. That move? Total power play. And people are applauding her strength and grace all over social media.
This whole situation is a messy reminder that relationships, especially in the public eye, come with pressure—but no matter how private or public, accountability matters.

Let's talk about accountability in relationships
Relationships aren't just cuddles and cute selfies—they're work. And at the center of that work is accountability. Not just saying 'my bad' and moving on. It's about owning what you did, understanding how it hurt your partner, and genuinely trying to do better.
No one's perfect. But when you're in a relationship, you've gotta be willing to look in the mirror and say, 'Yeah, I messed up.' Whether it's something big like betrayal, or smaller stuff like flaking on plans, how you handle it matters.
Saying 'I dropped the ball' goes a long way—it shows your partner you respect them.
Because here's the thing: love without accountability? That's not real love. That's just comfort. And if you really care about someone, you don't just promise change—you show it.
So own your mess, fix it, and grow. That's how real love survives.

Kusha Kapila BREAKS Silence On Drastic Weight Loss: ‘I Was Starving...'
Last Updated: Kusha Kapila breaks her silence on the internet's obsession with her dramatic weight loss. Opening up about childhood trauma, starving for validation, and more. In a world obsessed with before-and-after photos and fitness transformations, Kusha Kapila's drastic weight loss journey has become internet fodder. Social media has been awash with speculation, admiration, and even criticism. While many whispered about shortcuts like Ozempic, the popular weight loss injection, Kusha chose silence—until now. In a deeply personal, emotionally raw video on her YouTube channel, the actress and content creator has finally opened up, shattering illusions and unpacking the painful truth behind her transformation. 'For the past month, I've been seeing so many transformation reels of myself that I started feeling like I wasn't even in my body," she began, addressing the virality of her physical change. 'I had to look at myself from the outside and wonder—'Is that really me?'" Kusha described the experience as 'a constant out-of-body experience," admitting that it often felt like 'someone else was talking about my body more than I was." From being labeled an 'average girl" to suddenly being hailed as a 'goddess of beauty" in Google alerts and Hindi news headlines, the disconnect between external validation and internal struggle grew starker. 'They would write things like 'Average girl turned into a goddess of beauty,'" she said, not without irony. This wasn't her first weight loss journey. Kusha recounted being about 12 or 13 when she first lost weight. She recalled people monitoring what she ate and drank, often making her feel like her body was a public spectacle. 'I started gaining weight when I was 10," she revealed, 'and people made me aware of it in a very harsh way—calling me names like 'motu'." By the time she reached 10th grade, she had gained a significant amount of weight during board exams. Her mother, worried, enrolled her in a gym that Kusha likened to an 'akhada." That was when she first began strength training and learning to run on a treadmill. 'I lost about 20-22 kilos during that time," she shared. But while her body changed, so did her psyche. 'At 15 or 16, I was becoming beautiful, but I didn't realise how deep my body image issues had gone and how long they would stay with me." She admitted, 'You don't realize it, you just look at before-and-after makeovers and think that the attention you get is the best thing in life." Eventually, she let go. 'Let it be," she told herself. 'I don't care." Instead of chasing validation through appearance, Kusha began cultivating her now-signature humor. 'People liked me for my jokes, my antics, my impersonations," she said, 'So, my body didn't feel like something I needed to work on." But by the age of 22, things began to spiral. 'I had gained 10 kilos more, and I was in an unhealthy state with no idea about what I wanted in life," she said. 'I felt completely clueless." Then one night, a friend captured her photo while they were out. At 1:30 AM, he sent it to her with a message: 'Kusha, I think it's time to work on yourself." Far from an insult, it was an act of concern. 'He said it with love," Kusha explained. 'He was into fitness and could see I was in a bad mental space." She joined the gym again—but this time, the path was far darker. 'I was consuming only 800-900 calories a day, sometimes even less," she confessed. Her meals were plain and repetitive—roti with tomato curry prepared by her mother, for both lunch and dinner. 'Because of this extreme calorie deficit, I lost weight very quickly and dramatically. I didn't gain muscle—it was just rapid weight loss." Despite the unhealthy routine, compliments poured in. 'People started saying things like, 'Wow, Kusha, you look so amazing! What have you done?'" But inside, she was breaking. 'I was starving," she said. 'I didn't even realise why or for whom I was losing weight. Was it for health? Or just for the validation?" Eventually, her immune system began to fail. She developed a mysterious evening fever that wouldn't go away for 12 days. Doctors were baffled. 'After multiple tests, they couldn't figure it out. Then one doctor suggested it might be tuberculosis." The diagnosis: abdominal tuberculosis, likely caused by her weakened immunity due to extreme under-eating. 'Women over 25-26 are more prone to TB. I was diagnosed because I had dropped my immunity so drastically," she said. Now at 33, Kusha says she's finally doing it differently. 'For the first time in my life, I felt like I wanted to lose weight for myself. I told myself—'You are by yourself now. You're responsible for everything that happens in your life. Take care of yourself, because no one else is coming.'" First Published: May 30, 2025, 21:31 IST

When Maggi meets Italian taste buds: Wife's comfort food gets SHOCKING review from husband. Watch viral video
A viral Instagram video shared by UK-based couple Surbhi and Dario shows an Italian man's first reaction to tasting India's beloved instant noodles, Maggi.

Remove Ads A video featuring a cultural food experiment has gone viral on Instagram, drawing millions of views and a wave of commentary from around the world.

However, Dario appears unconvinced. He remarks, 'I don't know how to describe what I have in my mouth. It's like something smashable and without consistency. Some spicy flavour. It's not textured, it's just melting in my mouth. Pasta doesn't melt. Pasta, you bite, you chew, you feel it, you taste. Here you don't taste.' The video closes with the humorous text overlay: 'Rated: -1/10 for emotional damage.'In the caption, Surbhi candidly admits, 'Not every cultural exchange is a success story, I guess.

A different viewer noted, 'Maggi is an emotion.'Some defended Dario's reaction, attributing it to cultural differences. 'Don't try this in India publicly,' joked one commenter. Another said, 'You're not supposed to offer Maggi to an Italian. They are very specific about cooking, especially Italian foods.' Others questioned the comparison itself, asking, 'Why on earth is he comparing instant noodles with pasta or spaghetti???'While many viewers found the moment hilarious, others used it to reflect on broader cultural differences in food preferences. The contrast between India's instant noodle staple and Italy's deeply-rooted pasta traditions sparked a lively discussion. Some pointed out that comparing the two was unfair given their completely different textures, ingredients, and culinary contexts.

Indians react to Karan Johar's new reality show, The Traitors. ‘Have some mercy on us'
'What is this ameero ka off season Splitsvilla?' wrote one Instagram user under Karan Johar's post. Another one wrote: 'The game we played on school trips and holidays is now basically a reality show.' The trailer has generated great interest among Indian viewers, who have all started sharing their two cents on social media. New Delhi: The highly-anticipated Indian version of reality show The Traitors will see Karan Johar play host to 20 contestants. The trailer, which dropped on Thursday, will see 'Rebel Kid' Apoorva Mukhija match her wit and cunning with actor Arjun Kapoor's sister Anshula Kapoor, Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra, Maheep Kapoor from Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, and other celebrities. People have also started naming their favourite contestants, such as influencer Apoorva Mukhija; others have compared it to the multiplayer online game 'Among Us'. Johar's post has garnered over 23,000 likes in five hours, and has 21,700 reshares so far. The Traitors The treachery and trickery will unfold at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The show will stream on Amazon Prime Video starting 12 June, with new episodes every Thursday at 8 pm. The three-minute trailer also features Telugu actress Lakshmi Manchu, and television stars Jannat Zubair, Jasmin Bhasin, and Karan Kundrra. All the contestants have a spicy backstory. Mukhija's remarks on Samay Raina's YouTube show India's Got Latent with podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia triggered social media outrage and led to multiple FIRs. Uorfi Javed is known for her daring costumes and her own reality TV show, Follow Kar Lo Yaar (2024). The Traitors will also feature fashion commentator Sufi Motiwala, who is represented by Karan Johar's Dharma Cornerstone Agency (DCA). They all have a single objective: to win the Rs 1 crore prize money after completing a series of physical and psychological missions. Players marked 'innocents' must find and eliminate the 'traitors' from among them, who will be secretly chosen at the beginning of the show by host Karan Johar. The reality show is based on the Dutch series De Verraders (2021), which has iterations in 30 countries. The American version is hosted by Alan Cumming and the British version by Claudia Winkleman. Game of trust, deception In the trailer, Karan Johar is dressed head-to-toe in a black, magician-like ensemble. Viewers are privy to snatches of contestants trying to figure out who the traitors are. In the clip, Uorfi Javed vows to shave her head if found to be a 'traitor', while rapper Raftaar, also a contestant on the show, says that he will 'stop rapping'. 'Yaha trust is rare, but dhoka everywhere (Trust is rare here, but deception is everywhere),' declares Johar. Some people, however, have criticised the Bollywood filmmaker for taking up the project. 'You'll do anything at this point to avoid directing a movie…who are you Riri? Wrote one Instagram user. Another one expressed disappointment at the content itself: 'Indians are fed up of seeing content like this! With the likes of Karan Johar and others! Same thing, old wine, new bottle. Have some mercy on us and give us good content.' (Edited by Zoya Bhatti)
