- Kay Adams made a brief Netflix broadcast cameo during Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua and sparked a social-media rush.
- Adams predicted Anthony Joshua to win and drew louder reaction than the bout among many viewers.
- NFL legend Michael Irvin, golfer Rory McIlroy and rapper Rick Ross were also shown in the ringside group.
Kay Adams cameo steals TV attention
Kay Adams appeared in a short Netflix broadcast segment at the Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua superfight in Miami. The on-screen moment lasted only a minute, but viewers on social platforms quickly zeroed in on Adams — many saying they preferred seeing her to the action in the ring.
During the quick ringside interview, Adams and other celebrities were asked to name their pick for the fight. Adams backed Anthony Joshua, but fan reaction focused less on the prediction than on her appearance and presence on camera.
Stars in the crowd: Michael Irvin and more
The broadcast showed a ringside group that included former NFL star Michael Irvin, golfer Rory McIlroy and rapper Rick Ross. Viewers noticed the star-studded table, but social chatter gravitated toward Adams’ cameo — with several posts urging the broadcast to return to her shots.
Fans react on X and social feeds
Fans took to X (formerly Twitter) and other platforms to demand more widescreen time for Adams. One viewer wrote: “Get this dumb*** fight off the screen bruh show Kay Adams again,” while others used slang and emojis to praise her looks and presence. A share link to the original coverage circulated widely: https://x.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thesun.co.uk%2Fsport%2F37694830%2Fkay-adams-jake-paul-anthony-joshua-netflix&text=Kay%20Adams%20steals%20show%20at%20Jake%20Paul%20vs%20Anthony%20Joshua%20with%20Netflix%20cameo
Context: fight result and wider reaction
While Adams’ cameo dominated some social feeds, the fight itself delivered headlines. Anthony Joshua defeated Jake Paul in a bout that saw Paul go down multiple times — and later report a double jaw fracture. Commentators and some viewers criticized the pacing and action in parts of the event, but post-fight discussion also turned to potential future matchups for Joshua.
Why the cameo resonated
Short celebrity appearances can cut through the noise of major live events, especially when viewers tune into broadcast reactions in real time. Adams’ TV-friendly presence, combined with the sudden pivot of audience attention away from the ring, highlights how non-fight moments can become the most-talked-about parts of a sporting broadcast.
Bottom line
Kay Adams’ minute-long Netflix cameo at the Paul vs Joshua fight became a viral moment, with many fans commenting more on her presence than the bout. Michael Irvin and other celebrities shared the ringside frame, but social media made Adams the breakout highlight of the broadcast.
