Scroll down as this article unfolds all the information.

Marcel Cunningham On The Anonymous

Marcel Cunningham, a full-time gamer from Tacoma who gained notoriety for employing his powers of mischief under the moniker “BasicallyIDoWrk,” wears a variety of masks and frequently shares colorful editorials on social media for his millions of followers.

As he revealed in an August 2024 interview with The Seattle Times, casting for The Anonymous, which is currently airing on USA Network, reached out to the 34-year-old influencer in video games and asked that he try his hand at a different kind of gaming.

“This is definitely not my first rodeo,” he said. “I play games for a living. I’m on the computer six to eight hours a day. So, the game is going to be just another game which I excel at. That’s my forte.” Before joining USA Network’s “The Anonymous,” Marcel didn’t watch a lot of reality competition series. “I mostly just watched the love ones with my fiancée,” Marcel shared. “Occasionally the one-off ‘Deal or No Deal’ when it’s on TV. And I did watch ‘The Traitors.’ ”

In an attempt to get others to “underestimate him,” Marcel contemplated whether to disclose his dishonest line of employment to the other 11 participants on The Anonymous. He told The Seattle Times that instead, he made the decision to attempt to frighten them. “As I looked around and saw the other contestants, I just thought about how long I’ve been on the internet,” Marcel said. “If any one of these guys for any reason know or has seen anything in the 10 years I’ve been doing YouTube, I’m immediately labeled as a liar. I felt like it was in my best interest to tell people the truth about my career.”

Marcel likened the social gameplay on Netflix’s competitive series “The Circle,” which co-stars with “The Anonymous,” at 11 p.m. on August 19, to a hybrid of the computer game Among Us and the show.

In “The Anonymous,” twelve competitors use dishonesty and cunning to compete for a $100,000 grand prize. This year, the game was filmed at a modernistic circular home (the USA refuses to disclose the location; Deadline.com claims the show was filmed in Europe). In addition to the real world, players can also interact in “anonymous mode.”

Players receive directions from a computer voice known as DANI, or Digital Anonymous Networking Interface. When they go into anonymous mode, players set up personal “underground hideouts” where they converse with one another using anonymous avatars in an effort to figure out each other’s real identities. DANI puts the competitors to the test to determine how well they can match different handles with players.

Every week, a different player is sent home, chosen by the player who maintains the greatest anonymity by not being mentioned during the guessing process.

Marcel Cunningham Wife

Marcel Cunningham is engaged to his soon-to-be-wife Kris Mae. He proposed to Kris weeks before the episodes of The Anonymous premiered as revealed by Marcel’s July 27, 2024, post on Instagram.

“Starts with an F and rhymes with Beyoncé,” his caption read. Alongside the happy couple’s engagement came a stunning photo shoot that is currently displayed in numerous posts on Marcel’s profile. It depicts the now-married couple in an extravagant helicopter outfit in front of picturesque Washington’s mountains and pines.

The couple started dating in August 2020. On 19 August 2024, they celebrated their fourth year as a couple. “Still feels like Day 1,” Marcel posted.

Whereas, Kris celebrated their anniversary with a post, “Our anniversary is kind of today, kind of last week, kind of 4 months from now. Cheers to the start of year 4 of the world’s greatest Tinder romance. 🥂 (I know wedding hashtags are “out,” but if you think I’m not seizing every opportunity to use #basicallyido, you don’t know me).”

Originally from Jersey, Kris is based in Seattle where she is also a digital creator. She has 21.4K followers on her IG and 50.7K followers on her TikTok.
