Inde Navarrette: From Streaming to Slaying in Obsession

From Player to Star

Before she shocked the world in Obsession, Inde Navarrette was already making waves on Twitch while demonstrating her killer skills in games like Call of Duty, all while sporting a cute Toad hat. I mean, who wouldn’t want to blast their way through enemies dressed as a fun-loving mushroom?

I’ve been meaning to binge-watch Obsession for a weekend now – spoilers, it hasn’t happened yet. But word around the internet has been ridiculously positive, with folks raving about how it’s breaking box office records and whatnot. However, what really caught my attention was the revelation that this Twitch goblin was charming long before she hit the big screen.

In a delightful chat, Navarrette reminisced about her gaming roots, sparked by her older brother and her mom. “We kicked it off on the PS2, playing Shrek games in Big Head mode,” she recalled. Yes, you heard that right – Shrek! If that doesn’t scream nostalgia, I don’t know what does. And then, of course, she and her brother dove straight into the chaos of Call of Duty, along with some legendary adventures in games like Red Dead and Fallout. Now that’s what I call a gaming lineage!

Navarrette kicked off her Twitch journey right in the thick of the COVID chaos, and inspired by YouTube legends like Markiplier, she built her own PC and gave streaming a whirl. “I thought, if I love gaming and I’m not filming shows, why not stream?” Talk about a brainwave!

Cynical side of me was initially resistant to admire a celebrity, but let me tell you – when I caught her losing it over Joel after some car crash in a game, I couldn’t help but shout, “OMG, she’s literally just like me!” I mean, who hasn’t panic-modeled their reaction to some unexpected in-game drama, right?

And don’t get me started on the infamous Windows activation warning lurking in her Twitch archives – I might not confirm or deny seeing that error before in my own life. But it just adds to her charisma; she’s real, she’s relatable, and honestly, she’s just plain fun. So here’s to Inde Navarrette – the next-gen gaming queen!
