Although, each one of them could often be heard complaining about life in the city. But being the commercial, financial, and cultural center of Southern California, L.A. presents a lot of opportunities for the influencers. In the last week of February, popular streamer streams, Ludwig, in a social media post revealed that his dream car had been stolen. During the power outage in LA, someone had managed to steal the streamer’s car.
Valkyrae also lives in the city. Moreover, she is the co-owner of the global esports company, 100 Thieves, whose headquarters are also situated in Los Angeles.

In the tweet, she attached two pictures of her Lamborghini, which is in very bad shape. Due to what seemed like an act of vandalism. “It truly was just a matter of time livin’ in LA,” said, Val.
