The blogger proudly flexed his arm candy for the evening, enjoying a night out. The two kept it cozy as Joy held a single red rose while wrapped in Akademiks\u2019 warm embrace.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The link up happened after the streamer caught a glimpse of Joy\u2019s leaked sex tape with Diddy and adult entertainer Sly Diggler. That led to an interview between the two, in which Big Ak revealed that he was attracted to her. Daphne responded that she was \u201cattracted\u201d to his attraction of her.<\/p>\n

She would later tell Cam Newton<\/strong> on his Funky Friday podcast that she would be happy to accept Akademiks\u2019 offer for a date. “It\u2019s a, ‘I’m ready at 8:00 p.m. right now,’” Joy said, adding that it\u2019s \u201ceffort and energy\u201d that appeals to her.<\/p>\n

“It’s not about the looks. It’s about how someone makes you feel,” she explained. “I think, in a really crazy time, he interviewed me at one of my most, probably, emotionally vulnerable times, and he made me laugh.”<\/p>\n

Joy made it clear that she has no type, simply saying that she likes men who can make her feel \u201creally good inside.\u201d Judging by the IG photo dump, it appears that Ak is the man that is making Joy feel good.<\/p>\n
