Drake's Hotline Blings After Phone Number Gets Leaked During Livestream

Drake's personal hotline was ringing off the hook this week after his phone number was accidentally leaked during a livestream — and the 6 God took it all in stride.
The unexpected moment happened when rising streamer Tylil James shared a FaceTime call with Drake on-air, inadvertently revealing the rapper's real number to thousands of viewers in real time. Drake, clearly amused yet resigned, didn't hesitate to call out the mishap during the live conversation.
'You definitely leaked my number,' Drake told Tylil, acknowledging the growing flood of calls and texts blowing up his line.
'This sh*t is going crazy,' he added, before brushing it off with characteristic cool. 'Don't worry, I can get a new number tomorrow. It's a blessing in disguise anyways.'
The incident followed Drake's surprise involvement in Kai Cenat's inaugural Streamer University event, which took place over the weekend in Akron, Ohio. Though he didn't appear in person, Drake delivered a heartfelt pre-recorded message praising Cenat for uniting the livestream community in a unique way.
'To be able to organize this incredible academia event and gather you all together in one place is something that has never been done before,' he said.
'It's an extraordinary feat, and I want you all to show the most love that you possibly can for your Dean, the one and only Kai Cenat.'
Drake's connection to top-tier streamers is no passing trend. Beyond his current visual project for 'SOMEBODY LOVES ME' with Cenat, he's made waves in the streaming world for years, most notably by helping skyrocket Twitch's popularity during a now-legendary Fortnite stream with Adin Ross and Ninja.
He's also made multiple appearances on DJ Akademiks' platform, reinforcing his ongoing alliance with the online content community.

Google AI is worse at Pokemon than I was when I was 5 – taking 800 hours to beat the Elite 4 and having a breakdown when its HP got low

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. If you're someone who thinks AI is almost ready to take over the world, I have some good or bad (depending on your stance on things) news for you: Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro took over 800 hours to beat the 29-year-old children's game Pokemon Blue. There's a Twitch account called Gemini_Plays_Pokemon, a pale imitation of the incredible Twitch Plays Pokemon account that started this trend. First things first: how long did it take the AI to actually complete the game? Well, it was a staggering 813 hours. I feel like you could hit buttons randomly and beat the game faster than that. After some tweaks by the creator of this Twitch channel, the AI managed to halve its time to a still outrageous 406.5 hours. That is actually dead on half the time, which is interesting mathematically but still far too long to beat a game you can win with an overleveled Venusaur. Additionally, as spotted by our friends at PC Gamer, Google DeepMind reported on the Twitch account, and something unusual happens whenever its Pokemon get low on health or power points (PP). Whenever one or both of these conditions are met, "model performance appears to correlate with a qualitatively observable degradation in the model's reasoning capability – for instance, completely forgetting to use the pathfinder tool in stretches of gameplay while this condition persists." This, combined with the AI mistakenly thinking it was playing FireRed and LeafGreen and would need to find the Tea to progress, are part of the reasons it took so long to finish. Honestly, AI just isn't very good at playing Pokemon. Someone else made Claude Plays Pokemon, and that AI spent hours trying to get out of Cerulean city because it kept jumping down a ledge to talk to an NPC it had already spoken to dozens of times. So, these AIs aren't able to beat a game that we could when we barely knew our times tables. Let's not worry about them taking our jobs any time soon. In the meantime, check out the best Pokemon games of all time.

Dad Going to Work Hears 'Wait'—Unprepared for What Security Cam Captures

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A father leaving for work was forced to make a U-turn after hearing "Wait!" coming from his driveway. In security camera footage captured on the Ring doorbell, Aaron Weatherford pulled out of his driveway after calling out, "Bye! Love you!" to his family inside. Seconds later, his 7-year-old daughter, Ella, runs after him yelling, "Dad! Wait! Dad!" Split screen of Ring doorbell camera footage of Black car reversing out of driveway and 7-year-old girl holding up her arm. Split screen of Ring doorbell camera footage of Black car reversing out of driveway and 7-year-old girl holding up her arm. @dadatbat Unaware, Weatherford had already started down the road, until his phone lit up with a FaceTime call. "Initially, I thought something tragic happened," Weatherford told Newsweek. "A fall? Something with mom? She was holding the phone just under her chin, enough for me to see her tears coming down from her cheeks. My heart sank." But the truth, while less dramatic, hit him even harder. In a soft, sad tone, Ella told her dad: "You left and didn't hug me." The clip then cuts to Weatherford pulling back into the driveway and walking into the house. He posted the footage on Instagram (@dadatbat) with the caption: "Don't ever miss a chance to love on your kiddos not just with words, but with actions." For the dad of three, those words carry the weight of profound personal loss. "We lost my oldest daughter, Olivia, September 12, 2023 to pediatric cancer after four and a half year battle," he told Newsweek. "I cherished moments with her and our family when we were together... [but] I look back on those moments and think, 'Where would I have shown love more?' If we say, 'I love you' I want them to know what love looks like, not just what it sounds like." That mindset has shaped every interaction since. Hospital visits for Olivia were spent away from his two younger children and now, he's got a new perspective on parenting. "Our perspective now has changed to focus more on intentionality and essentially addressing our internal need to 'make up' for lost time," Weatherford said. "If I can make a moment and heal tears, I do whatever I can to do it. My wife and I felt so helpless and useless at times during the cancer journey. If I can, I will." Weatherford's reel has had an overwhelming response online. Since it was posted on March 20, the clip has been viewed almost 19 million times. Thousands of comments poured in with admiration for his actions. "So precious! She'll always remember you turning around for her!" one user wrote. "I would rather be late and hug my kids one more time, every day of the week. No matter what the appointment or meeting. Nothing is more important than my family," another added. Many others believe Ella saved her father from a fateful car accident by getting him to turn around. Weatherford told Newsweek that the heartwarming moment between him and his daughter reinforced the idea of making every moment count. Ella, who is the middle child, has the most memories of Olivia's journey, and her parents' trips to the hospital. "I've always been worried that me leaving so often with Liv would impact her and Eli, so I've tried to be more intentional with treating their emotions and pivotal moments of impact carefully," Weatherford said. "That's where this particular moment fell dead center in my heart. I didn't even consider the consequences of work when I answered that call. For her, for my family, they take priority."

Amouranth Returns to Twitch After Making $38 Million on Kick

Kaitlyn 'Amouranth' Siragusa has done what every business baddie dreams of: secured the bag, stacked the millions, and returned to the main stage on her own terms. After cashing in on a jaw-dropping $38 million run with Kick, the internet's reigning queen of streaming reinvention has announced her glamorous return to Twitch. And she did it the only way Amouranth knows how with a cinematic flair, a brand flip, and a calculated nod to the tens of millions she just pocketed from the competition. In a short but sharp video posted to X (formerly Twitter), Amouranth is seen refueling at a 7-Eleven gas station, speaking cryptically on the phone: 'I'm on my way after I refuel a bit. Be there soon.' The clip then cuts to a Spongebob-style title card reading '$38 million later.' Her green Kick-branded car shifts color to Twitch purple. It was a masterclass in brand symbolism. One minute she's a high-earning rebel on Kick with a 'Kick Com' vanity plate. The next, she's making a high-octane return to Twitch like a diva who took a spa sabbatical in the south of France, only to reemerge in couture with a martini and no apologies. Amouranth joined Kick in 2023 shortly after xQc made headlines with a $100 million mega-deal. While Siragusa's contract details were never fully disclosed, she confirmed to Dexerto that it doubled her income and the math checks out. A two-year tenure netting $38 million implies a cool $19 million annually, which would be a sharp increase from her already considerable earnings across Twitch, OnlyFans, and business ventures. At a time when many creators were trying to diversify their revenue streams or chase exclusivity checks, Amouranth didn't just play the game. She dictated the damn rules. Her return to Twitch, slated for June 20, signals more than just a homecoming. It's a strategic chess move. Twitch is still the industry's crown jewel when it comes to visibility and cultural cachet. While Kick gave her leverage and a payday, Twitch gives her global reach and mainstream influence. There's no official word yet on whether she'll be exclusive to Twitch or multistreaming across platforms. Kick has recently pulled back on its lavish contract strategy, encouraging creators to multistream rather than sign long-term exclusives. If Amouranth chooses to stream on both platforms, it will be on her terms which is exactly how she likes it. Don't expect her to simulcast on YouTube, though. In a move that remains the messiest chapter of her career, YouTube banned Amouranth's main channel for 'ban evasion' after axing her ASMR content for violating sexual content policies. While the incident may have tarnished her relationship with the Google-owned platform, it only intensified her appeal as a boundary-pushing brand unto herself. Amouranth has since leaned fully into platforms that let her monetize without micromanagement: streaming, OF, fan platforms, even launching novelty products like 'Gamer Girl Fart Jars.' Every decision is part of a broader empire-building machine. Let's be clear. This is not a story about a streamer getting bored and coming back. This is a calculated power pivot from a woman who has turned her digital persona into an empire. Twitch gets its headline act back. Amouranth gets her crown polished. And Kick gets left in a cloud of glitter and exhaust fumes. She's not just refueling at a gas station. She's refueling the industry. Watch out, Twitch. The queen is back. Richer, smarter, and classier than ever.
