Kai Cenat recently almost came to the verge of breaking down in front of the audience. The streamer enjoys a great relationship with Ray (also known as 'rayasianboy'), who is also a frequent guest on his streams. Kai Cenat seemed to tear up on his live stream recently when he told the crowd that Ray had been deported from the USA and revealed he'll now face five years in a Taiwanese prison because of dodging mandatory military service.

In what has now become a widely shared moment across social media platforms, Kai Cenat broke down emotionally during a livestream, unable to maintain his typically energetic demeanor. All this happened while the ominous music of The Undertaker's Gong kept playing in the background. The news stirred a strong wave of reactions from users on social media, with users coming out in droves to express their disbelief on X:

"Mf thought he was untouchable for being friends with Kai", joked one fan.
"I knew something was sketch about Ray coming back", quipped another.
"These dudes always lying. Corny af", another fan chimed in.
"Nah they got Ray", remarked a fourth user.

The reactions didn't stop there as netizens launched a prayer camp for Ray on the social media platform itself:

"Heartbreaking moment; hope justice and compassion prevail soon", commented one fan.
"Damn bro I hope they don’t go to hard on him", noted another.
"If Kai was really sad and this wasn’t fake he wouldn’t be using the undertaker intro", laughed another user.

The clip spread with such alacrity on the internet that even the previously absent Ray had to come back to X to clear the air, in which he flat-out denied his involvement with the military:

"I'm going to be honest, chat, I didn't go to the military, chat. No cap. I didn't even go to the military. I didn't even... I didn't even go to the f**king gym. I didn't do s**t! I was playing 2K all day! If you've seen me in the 2K park, that is me. Ray Quan Lee. Oh, s**t! I leaked my name. If you've seen me in the 2K park, that is me. If you've seen me play in 2K, that's me. I didn't do s**t. I didn't do this s**t, I'm sorry."

He then went on to apologize to the chat for his disappearing act:

"On god, these four months, it's like mental break. Whole restart. You got your visa, you're Gucci over here. They're saying, 'Lying a**.' I'm sorry, chat. I'm sorry"

Kai Cenat's latest statement caught a lot of attention on social media due to the duo's immense popularity and Kai Cenat's tendency to be over the top. While the rumors swirling on the internet have been laid to rest, Ray is preparing himself to level up, having been freed of the shackles that had been holding him down.
