Ayo Edebiri Gets Electrifying Lap Dance from Doechii at Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival
An electrifying moment at Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival left fans and the internet buzzing last Sunday. In an unexpected and highly sensual on-stage collaboration, acclaimed rapper Doechii surprised Emmy-winning actress Ayo Edebiri with a memorable lap dance during her performance. The interaction, which quickly went viral, showcased a side of Ayo Edebiri many weren’t expecting, cementing itself as one of the festival’s most talked-about highlights.
The Unexpected On-Stage Collaboration
The thrilling spectacle unfolded during Doechii’s energetic performance of her 2022 hit “Crazy.” Ayo Edebiri, beloved for her breakout role in FX’s acclaimed series The Bear, was wheeled onto the stage seated at what appeared to be a stylized desk. As the crowd erupted with anticipation, Doechii fearlessly climbed atop the desk, delivering a show-stopping performance directly to Edebiri, who seemed equal parts surprised and amused by the intimate display. Footage circulated almost immediately across social media platforms, capturing every angle of the unforgettable exchange.
Viral Reactions & The “Simply Too Seated” Meme
True to internet fashion, the moment quickly spawned a flurry of enthusiastic reactions and hilarious memes. Many social media users couldn’t help but draw parallels to Ayo Edebiri’s own viral “simply too seated” meme, originally a comedic reference to the trailer for the Hunter Schafer-led thriller Cuckoo. One commenter humorously captured the general sentiment, writing, “Poor Ayo don’t even know what to do with allat! Lawd help her lmaooooooooo.” Naturally, devoted fans of The Bear also chimed in, liberally using the show’s iconic catchphrase: “Thank you, chef,” a fitting nod to the sizzling performance that was undoubtedly serving up a lot of heat.
Doechii’s Hot Streak Continues
This titillating festival appearance at Camp Flog Gnaw comes on the heels of Doechii’s highly successful North American leg of her “Live from the Swamp” Tour. The acclaimed rapper has been making significant waves in the music industry, with her mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal earning the prestigious title of Best Rap Album this year at the Grammys. Furthermore, her powerful track “Anxiety” is already nominated for an impressive five Grammy awards in 2026, including the coveted Record of the Year. Her electrifying performance with Ayo Edebiri at Camp Flog Gnaw only amplified her rising star power and buzz.

Beyond Doechii and Ayo Edebiri’s viral moment, Childish Gambino’s merch table also grabbed headlines with its controversial “cancel cards” – greeting cards playfully mocking “cancelled” celebrities like Drake, R. Kelly, and Diddy. The festival’s initial weekend faced cancellation due to severe rain in Los Angeles, but the second weekend proceeded as planned, offering a live stream experience via Prime Video for fans worldwide.
