Amouranth Calls Out Pokimane for Joining xQc-Kick Discussion for Clout
Amouranth criticized Pokimane for involving herself in the discussion about xQc signing a deal with Kick just to gain attention and relevance at a time when she needs it the most.
Pokimane Rejects Offer from Kick Due to Moral Concerns
In her June 21 Twitch stream, Pokimane stated that she would never join Kick, regardless of the offer, because she refuses to compromise her morals and ethics. She expressed her disapproval of the platform’s strong ties to an online casino.
xQc Reacts to Pokimane’s Comments
xQc took notice of Pokimane’s remarks and interpreted them as implying that he and Amouranth, both of whom signed deals with Kick, are guilty of joining for similar reasons. He addressed this during his own stream later that day.
Amouranth Disagrees with Pokimane’s Intentions
Despite Pokimane denying any ill intentions, Amouranth remained unconvinced. She believed that Pokimane mentioned xQc to gain clout and relevance during a time when she lacks both. Amouranth expressed her skepticism on June 21.
Amouranth accused Pokimane of involving herself in the drama solely to gain views, although she acknowledged it as a “smart” move because Pokimane will be able to stream less and travel more. Amouranth clarified that she didn’t want to hate on Pokimane but was convinced that attention-seeking was the real motive behind her involvement.
xQc Finds Pokimane’s Reasoning Reasonable
xQc understood Pokimane’s reasoning and admitted that it made sense. However, he felt that the way she phrased her statement implied that he and other streamers who signed lucrative deals with Kick were in the wrong.
Ultimately, xQc and Pokimane managed to reach an amicable agreement and ended the discussion on friendly terms. The outcome may differ when it comes to Amouranth and Pokimane, though.
