During a lively Twitch stream, Offset offered Kai Cenat some smooth-talking tips to approach SZA, after the internet personality admitted to having a crush on her. Kai’s initial idea—messaging SZA, “Hello, how you doing? Dat ass was fat in the last music video”—was quickly dismissed by Offset.
Offset, channeling his inner dating coach, advised a subtler approach. “You gotta ease your way in,” he explained. He suggested Kai DM her something like, “I got an idea.” According to Offset, this vague opener was designed to pique her interest while keeping it “playa” and mysterious.
Kai’s DM Backfires—Or Does It?
Despite his excitement at Offset’s advice, Kai Cenat’s plan didn’t go as expected. During a follow-up Twitch stream, the 21-year-old discovered that SZA had seemingly blocked him on Instagram. Displaying his phone to the camera, he showed a one-sided conversation with SZA, accompanied by Instagram’s message: “Invite sent. You can send more messages after your invite is accepted.” Kai’s despair turned comedic when a viral clip of his reaction was set to Drake’s emotional track, “Marvins Room.” However, SZA may not have actually blocked him. Instagram’s new invite feature, introduced in August, limits users to sending one invite before they’re allowed to chat. This update helps users manage their inboxes and avoid message spam.
Instagram’s New Feature Explained
The new messaging feature was introduced to improve user control and privacy. According to Meta’s Cindy Southworth:
“We want people to feel confident and in control when they open their inbox.” Now, users you don’t follow can only send a single text-based invite—no photos, videos, or voice notes—until you accept the request. This change likely led to Kai Cenat’s perceived “block,” sparing him from endless speculation about SZA’s reaction.
Offset’s Wild MJ Tattoo Story Goes Viral
Meanwhile, Offset made headlines for reasons beyond his “playa” advice. During a Hot 97 interview, Cardi B hilariously revealed how Offset’s Michael Jackson tattoo—strategically placed on his stomach—creates an awkward visual during intimate moments. Cardi joked that the tattoo seems to look back at her, adding humor to their already headline-grabbing relationship.
Whether Kai Cenat ultimately wins SZA’s attention or not, the playful moment sparked laughs and revealed the challenges of modern flirting in the age of social media. As for Offset, his double duty as a love guru and tattoo humorist continues to keep fans entertained.
