The internet went into frenzy when the much-loved German social media sensation and singer LizLaz posted updates of RCB’s monumental win against the Gujarat Titans in the 2026 IPL final. LizLaz flew directly out to the roaring, packed stands at Narendra Modi Stadium to support the red army and shared glimpses of the electric atmosphere at the stadium on her social media accounts. The star singer/vlogger has an unarguably complicated digital history with RCB superstar Virat Kohli. This made her visit to the stands highly anticipated.
LizLaz Attends RCB vs GT IPL 2026 Final in Ahmedabad
The German South African travel vlogger owned the stadium stands during the do-or-die finale in Ahmedabad. She wore the iconic red and gold as she uploaded non-stop live stories with fans singing with her to the tunes as Rajat Patidar and Virat Kohli lead the chase against Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans.
LizLaz and Virat Kohli: The Viral Insta Like That Sparked a Social Media Storm
The frenzy over the influencer at the regional level is due to a rather peculiar social media incident earlier this IPL 2026 season. Indian cricket sites were abuzz with memes and screenshots when observant net-users discovered that the verified Instagram account of Virat Kohli had liked a photograph on LizLaz’s profile. Kohli did not follow her account, and this short bit of digital interaction caught the public imagination and generated memes galore. The former captain then promptly unliked the photograph. The uproar went to the next level a few weeks later, when LizLaz revealed a rather appalling campaign of negative PR against the Indian idol. In an interview, viral across the country, the personality claimed anonymous journalists were willing to pay her large amounts of money to leverage the situation and make baseless false accusations against Kohli, a bribe that she declined immediately out of admiration for the cricketer.
Who Is LizLaz? Meet The German Influencer And RCB Fan
Originally from South Africa, LizLaz’s mother is German, and she has a degree in Psychology (Master of Science) and is amazingly good at speaking German, English and Dutch. LizLaz gained an initial ‘organic Indian’ following after releasing her hyperlocal song, ‘Samosa Samosa’, famously written in twenty minutes. The content creator fell in love with the local culture through cricket when residing in Karnataka, where she once admitted to interviews that she was such a massive fan of the Royal Challengers Bangalore because of having witnessed Virat Kohli playing cricket live in person.
