Key Background<\/h2>\n

In the early days of the World Cup\u2019s group round, Freddy posted countless images of common American fast food restaurants like Taco Bell<\/u> and Wendy\u2019s. He showered establishments like Waffle House<\/u> with praise, and reacted with shock<\/u> to a line of gas pumps at a Buc-ee\u2019s. Freddy\u2019s account took off from there, attracting celebrities and public officials eager to apparently show him a good time in the U.S.\u2014the Houston Police Department posed for photos with him and his group, later showering him<\/u> with gifts. He got a private tour<\/u> of NASA Mission Control with astronaut Anne McClain. Former Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt welcomed him to Houston, while country singer Ella Langley posed for a photo<\/u> with him (with his face covered) after Freddy called her<\/u> \u201cthe soundtrack of our trip.\u201d It even led to an invitation<\/u> to tour the White House from Nick Adams, the Trump administration\u2019s special presidential envoy for tourism (Freddy did not respond to a DM asking about further information on this trip). <\/p>\n

CHIEF CRITICS<\/h2>\n

The rapid succession of celebrity endorsements and Freddy\u2019s breathless praise for seemingly banal aspects of American life led some commenters on social media to accuse him not being what he seems. The German fan deactivated his X account later in June. \u201cToo many people seem to have a problem with us having a genuinely good time here \u2026 this is ruining the fun a bit for us because we really just wanted to document our roadtrip and never expected that people would have a problem with it,\u201d Freddy wrote on an Instagram story after deactivating his X profile.<\/p>\n
