This got blown up since Friday morning and social media quickly erupted, with many users drawing comparisons to his 2025 &#8216;likegate&#8217; involving Avneet Kaur. LizLaz who is a musician and vlogger whose post unexpectedly turned into a viral talking point has finally broken silence on it. She has now reacted to Virat&#8217;s like on her post and the reactions that have followed. She said during a chat with Hindustan Times, \u201cIt was crazy because I woke up and then I was all over the news,\u201d she tells us, adding, \u201cI don\u2019t even know when he liked the picture, I learnt through the news. So many people found the articles done on me on many different platforms and sent them to me in my DMs. I got so many messages today, people were super excited about it.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p> Watch<\/p>\n<p> Virat Kohli Trends After Liking Influencer Post, Internet Reacts With Memes Even after Kohli later removed the like, LizLaz says she felt more sympathy than disappointment. \u201cNo, I felt a bit sorry for him actually!,\u201d she says. \u201cI was so happy that he liked it, but then him unliking it, I felt a bit bad for him because I don&#8217;t even know how it became such a big story. How did people notice, how did they make it news\u2026 that was probably not his intention behind it, but still I am grateful for it and I appreciate the support from him.\u201dMeanwhile, a resurfaced clip from one of LizLaz\u2019s earlier interviews has also been circulating online, in which she openly admitted to being a fan of Kohli. That admiration, she explains, began during her first visit to India last year. What was meant to be a short stay with a close friend in Bengaluru soon turned into a months-long journey across the country, including stops in Goa, Mysuru, Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad.\u201cOne of my best friends is from Bangalore, so I just wanted to visit them. I thought I am going to stay for maybe two weeks and then leave. But then I enjoyed it a lot, so I stayed for many months. I also started traveling around all over South India, Goa, Mysore, even Coorg, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, and then also the north later. And this trip is when I got introduced to cricket as a sport. I didn\u2019t watch it before or anything. I was born in South Africa but brought up in Germany, where the national sport is only football.\u201dThat trip also introduced her to the <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/indian-premier-league\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Indian Premier League<\/a>. Watching matches with friends from Bengaluru turned her into a supporter of Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and naturally, a fan of Kohli.\u201cIt was obviously the IPL last year, so I started watching with my Bangalorean friends. It was contagious. I was also becoming a Royal Challengers Bangalore fan. And obviously, if you support RCB, Virat Kohli is the most exciting player to watch. He&#8217;s just so good. So I was happy about him liking the picture.\u201dThe viral moment has already brought unexpected professional interest her way. \u201cThere have been so many queries. But I am taking my time. I am passionate about music and vlogging. And if I get music opportunities in India, why not? Maybe I will visit again soon. I wish I was there for the IPL this time.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Virat Kohli has been the talk of the town for his like on a German model LizLaz&#8217;s pictures.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":613777,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[64,63,740,297961,13849,297960,1614,105217,1314,85,2131],"class_list":{"0":"post-613776","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-cricket","11":"tag-germany-model","12":"tag-indian-premier-league","13":"tag-lizlaz","14":"tag-premier-league","15":"tag-royal-challengers-bangalore","16":"tag-social-media","17":"tag-sports","18":"tag-virat-kohli"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613776","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=613776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/613777"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=613776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=613776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=613776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
