shawn fonteno says kai cenat broke a promise to a kid and he's done streaming with him

Shawn Fonteno, the actor behind Franklin in GTA 5, is calling out Kai Cenat. Dexerto's report says Fonteno claims Kai promised a kid from a struggling family a motorcycle during a stream and then never made good on it. Fonteno says he won't stream with Kai again.
I can see why this would set him off. A promise like that on a stream with a huge audience isn't a small thing. The kid probably watched that clip over and over. Then nothing. When someone like Fonteno says he's done, it's not nothing.
This is GTA 5 stuff, not 6, but the crossover between actors and streamers is always going to get attention here. Kai's got a massive following and Fonteno is basically GTA royalty to a lot of people. Seeing them split over something like this is weird. I'm not picking sides without more details, but if the report is accurate, I get why Fonteno wouldn't want to share a stream with him again.

If you promise a kid something in front of a huge audience, you follow through. That's the whole deal. I once forgot a promise to get my son a new controller and he brought it up daily for a month. Kids don't forget this stuff. Good on Fonteno for saying it out loud.
ok so not GTA 6 related but franklin's voice actor calling out a streamer over a broken promise kinda rules. you don't dangle a motorcycle in front of a struggling kid for content and then just never follow up, that's a clip that lives forever. BigMike nailed it, kids don't forget this stuff. weird timeline where GTA royalty beefs with twitch guys though.
