In the season two final, Elliot met up with Rue, who is battling drug addiction, and apologized for his role in her drug use.
Fike then goes on to sing a song he wrote for her while playing the guitar.
On February 28, Fike uploaded a handful of memes that mocked the singer’s lengthy musical moment onto his Instagram story, with the caption “The internet remains undefeated, I am humbled.”

The song performed in the show is titled “Little Star,” and was surprisingly not written by the 26-year-old, but rather by Euphoria composer Labrinth and Zendaya herself.
“Me and Zendaya were actually sitting in each other’s kind of spiritual energy and space,” Labrinth said in a statement.

“Dominic came in and jumped on the score pieces we were working on and played some guitar, because he’s a great guitarist. The cast is not just acting, they’re part of the music now,” the Euphoria composer added.
It is currently unclear whether Fike will be returning as Elliot in season three, but fans are now spectating that Addison Rae might be joining the series.
