- July 7, 2026
AceShowbiz - Kai Cenat has announced the official lineup for the 2026 Streamer University, highlighting a diverse group of creators and entertainers who will serve as professors for this year’s program. Among the standout names is singer and streamer Lizzo, who is joining the roster as a professor, bringing her unique presence to the platform.
The announcement was made during a live Twitch broadcast on Monday, July 6, where Kai Cenat introduced both the staff and students for the second annual creator incubator designed to support and develop streamer talent. Alongside Lizzo, notable educators include Kaiya Cenat (Kai’s sister), Agent00, Duke Dennis, Cinna, Maya Higa, The Sushi Dragon, Ludwig, Poudii, Pokimane, and Adapt. Additionally, YourRage will fill the role of Guidance Counselor for the program.
Regarding Lizzo, Kai Cenat noted her active engagement with Twitch and her enthusiasm for streaming, having submitted an application to participate and contribute meaningfully to the university. This move highlights the growing crossover between mainstream music artists and the streaming community.
Besides the professors, the event also revealed Club Directors for specialized areas: rapper and producer T-Pain will lead Musical Arts, while well-known basketball coach Lethal Shooter will oversee Athletics. These roles aim to provide focused guidance within their respective fields for Streamer University participants.
However, the 2026 event was not without controversy. Soulja Boy was notably absent from the official lineup and auditions, which led to public criticism from the rapper. After creating his own competing “Rapper University,” he attempted to attend Kai Cenat’s event uninvited but was removed by security. Despite no further incident, the large crowd attracted by his presence caused safety concerns, resulting in the event being shut down early.
For those interested, the full announcement stream featuring all the 2026 Streamer University professors and students is available online, showcasing the expanding influence and growing ecosystem of content creators supported by Kai Cenat.
