Notable Collaborations

Lopez’s popularity has led to exciting opportunities to work with various brands and fellow TikTok creators.

One notable collaboration was with Kick platform ambassador Adin Ross, who appeared together with Lopez on a live stream on his channel in May 2023. The video has since been removed “for violating YouTube’s policies.”

She was subjected to abuse on the stream by Adin’s friend N3on, who referred to Lopez as a “f****g hippo” and openly questioned her, saying, “How do you not k*** yourself?”

Interestingly, this wasn’t the final showdown between the two internet celebs. Another notable interaction featuring Lopez and N3on took place on October 9, 2023.

This time, she appeared on Adin’s Livestream, where N3eon and Ross arranged a blind date for Garlock The Destroyer with 20 guys.

In November 2023, Lopez also teamed up with Stephen Deleonardis for a feature (below) on his Kick channel. In a video, Steve surprised Lopez with a pink Range Rover, and she was ecstatic. Her exact words were, “This is so f**king p*mp! This is f**king crazy!”
