The drama between viral sensation Cooking With Kya and her (now ex?) boyfriend ZaayBron James gave us the messiest breakup of Streamer University season.
The internet’s favorite cooking sensation, Cooking With Kya, just stirred up some major drama, and it’s led to a full-blown breakup after a crazy night at Kai Cenat’s Streamer University nightclub that sent her boyfriend, ZaayBron James, into an absolute frenzy.
It all started when Kai Cenat’s Streamer University students were letting loose at the nightclub. Our very own Cooking With Kya, also known as Kya Renee, got a little too carried away. She was reportedly twerking in the middle of a group of guys, and then — gasp! — some started to slap her butt, sending her now ex-boyfriend, ZaayBron James, into a fiery Twitter rant that quickly went viral.
ZaayBron James did not hold back. He tweeted, “damn, I’m in the hotel waiting for my bitcc, and she at the club 6 minutes away from me getting her ass slapped live in front of 50k people clout ah dangerous drug, never trust no bitcc yall, learn from me”. And if that wasn’t clear enough, he added, “#FUCCSTREAMERUNIVERSITY I JUST LOST MY BALL.”
After the video and his tweets went nuclear, Cooking With Kya responded with her own video. But here’s the twist: she claimed she wasn’t even in a relationship with ZaayBron James in the first place!
Kya Renee, who gained massive popularity for her unique “Cooking with Kya” videos (where she chants her catchphrase and dances while presenting her food, often with whipping cream!), had some strong words for ZaayBron.
“I’m not gonna sit here and cap. Of course, I have feelings for him. But I feel like he really did the most about this situation and the way he tried to slander my name like I’m a whore,” she stated. She continued, “First of all, if I was one, that would be embarrassing for you. Like why would you stay with a whore? Why would you cry for a whore when she says she wants you to go get established and that she doesn’t want a relationship? Why would you literally cry? I had never seen a man cry like that. Men could cry just got to a point like, damn, if I tell you anything like that, that should be a good thing to be established. That is all I want.”
Kya Renee’s rise to internet fame took off in December 2024 with a video showing her holding a delicious breakfast, telling viewers to “Wake up and make your man some breakfast before I do,” garnered over 10 million views. Her content has always generated mixed reactions, with many men finding her appealing and humorous, even imitating her style. However, many women have expressed frustration with her popularity, with one user sharing a video of herself “going crazy and punching something” at the mere mention of “Cooking with Kya” from her man’s phone.
Did ZaayBron overreact, or was Kya’s behavior out of line? Let us know in the comments!
