After a bit of a hiatus, mega streamer Kai Cenat is back with his flagship program, Streamer University, and for the second consecutive year, he’ll unite a new class of creators for an experience designed to inspire, educate, and equip the next generation of streamers. Cenat made his live-stream return on Monday night (July 6) and officially announced the 2026 roster of students and staff on his YouTube and Twitch channels.

This year, Cenat recruited several of his celebrity friends, including Lizzo and T-Pain, to join the 26-person staff as professors, club directors, and more. Streamer University accepted 120 students for the Class of 2026, which includes familiar faces like former Disney star Skai Jackson, Love Island USA contestant Jeremiah Brown, and rapper-turned-streamer DreamDoll.


The selected class of students was finalized after a competitive application process that included in-person auditions, drawing thousands of aspiring streamers and content creators to New York City, Atlanta, and Los Angeles.

Before more details are revealed about Cenat’s annual initiative and the campus where classes will be held, below is a round-up of notable staff and enrolled students in this year’s cohort. Visit Streamer University’s official site for the full list and more.

Role: Professor

Lizzo is taking her music expertise to the classroom and will serve as a professor. Whether she’s teaching students how to command a stage, build a personal brand, or even play the flute, Lizzo has no shortage of lessons to share.

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter made her streaming debut in 2025 and has since appeared on several of Cenat’s livestreams alongside her close friend SZA, showing she’s just as comfortable creating content as she is making music.

Role: Student

Chart-topping singer Queen Naija is heading back to her content creation roots as a member of this year’s Streamer University class.

Long before becoming a platinum-selling recording artist with hits like “Medicine” and “War Cry,” Queen built an audience through her YouTube channel, Chris and Queen.

Her career has spanned nearly a decade — between her YouTube channel, social media accounts, and music — making her one of the most recognizable creator-turned-artists in the program.

She’ll also have a familiar face on campus, as her longtime partner and fellow creator, Clarence White, was also accepted into this year’s class.


3. T-Pain

Role: Club Director

With decades of experience in the music industry, T-Pain is joining the staff as the Club Director of the Musical Arts Department.

The Grammy-winning artist and producer is no stranger to the streaming world. Since 2016, he’s been an active Twitch user before launching his own gaming and content organization, Nappy Boy Gaming. With more than 50 million singles sold and a victory on The Masked Singer, T-Pain’s résumé makes him a fitting mentor for aspiring music creators looking to level up in the booth and online.


4. Skai Jackson

Role: Student

Former Disney star Skai Jackson is officially joining the 2026 class of Streamer University as a student.

Notable for her roles in Jessie and Bunk’d, the actress has increasingly embraced content creation and recently went viral for AI-generated content, which Cenat joked about while announcing her acceptance. Jackson also shared her excitement about attending the program on X.

“I can’t wait to meet everyone and be on a college campus. You have to be looking cute; you can’t come looking bummy or raggedy. It has to be giving rich and expensive,” she wrote.


5. Jeremiah Brown

Role: Student

Love Island USA Season 7 personality Jeremiah Brown is officially joining the sophomore class of Streamer University and might pull a few people for a chat while doing so.

Since appearing on the hit reality series, Jeremiah has expanded his career beyond television, balancing modeling, acting, and livestreaming while steadily growing his Twitch community. His content ranges from IRL streams to lifestyle content. His growing influence also earned him TikTok’s Rising Star of the Year recognition.

Now, he’ll bring that same energy to Streamer University as one of the newest students in Cenat’s creator-focused program.

6. Duke Dennis

Role: Professor

One of Cenat’s closest collaborators and fellow AMP member, Duke Dennis, is returning to Streamer University as a professor after his acceptance into last year’s inaugural class.

Known for blending gaming, lifestyle, and IRL content, Duke has built one of streaming’s biggest communities by turning everyday happenings into engaging moments. This year, he’ll share the lessons he’s learned in his nearly decade-long career of creating content, helping students master the art of interacting with an audience during unscripted and live broadcasts.

7. DreamDoll

Role: Student

Rapper, reality star, and content creator DreamDoll has officially been accepted into the Streamer University Class of 2026.

Known for her appearances on Bad Girls Club and Love & Hip Hop: New York, DreamDoll has since built a career as a rapper, influencer, and digital creator. Long before influencer culture became mainstream, she was creating an online audience and using social media to build her brand.

Following the announcement, DreamDoll shared her excitement on Instagram, celebrating her acceptance into the creator-focused program. “Still trying to process this. Everyone was blowing up my phone to tell me. I’m overly excited. Thank you, Kai Cenat—I got accepted into Streamer University!!” she wrote.

“I’m excited to learn something new, meet amazing creators, and keep growing. Every season of my career has taught me something, and this one feels special. Thank you to everyone who’s been supporting me through every chapter. We’re just getting started.”

The Most Over-the-Top Celebrity Weddings of All Time

On Tuesday, June 30, a fleet of tractor trailers began unloading what appeared to be set pieces at Madison Square Garden. One, labeled “garden party,” drew special attention. Was this “garden party” the ultimate party at the ultimate garden? With rumors swirling that Taylor Swift is set to wed Travis Kelce in a Fourth of July weekend ceremony at the 20,000-seat arena, fans went feral. If the duo does wed at the iconic venue (a.k.a. Taylor’s place of work), it would be unconventional, if not unprecedented. And if all of the pomp and circumstance were part of an elaborate smokescreen created to hold the media’s attention while Tayvis married elsewhere, well now that would just be classic Taylor. Either way, it wouldn’t be the first time celebs went to great lengths to throw the perfect over-the-top wedding. The excitement has us reminiscing on some of the most memorable celebrity weddings of all time. From Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt’s Malibu fairy-tale event to Liza Minnelli and David Gest’s fun-house-mirror of an extravaganza, these 10 ceremonies have become modern pop-culture touchstones.

The Best World Cup Songs — And the Ones You May Have Forgotten

Over the years, the songs that provide a soundtrack to the World Cup have become a significant part of the tournament, almost as important as the games. Some anthems have reached far beyond the field to offer a true moment of unity (“Cup of Life,” anyone?) As the 2026 games kick off, we surveyed all of the official FIFA songs and anthems (not soundtrack singles) since 1990, and highlighted the most inescapable bops, along with some that may have gotten lost to time. Check them out below.

For the 2006 tournament, held in Germany, European classical group Il Divo and R&B icon Toni Braxton leaned into their strengths as musicians with a ballad-like entry into World Cup anthems, switching up the format of hype-up tracks. Against the swell of an orchestra, their voices unite to sing about the “glory and the pain” of making it to the big game.
