Amouranth and 39daph say ASMR meta streamers are not to blame for creepy viewers Instagram: amouranth / 39daphTwitch streamers Amouranth and 39daph have argued that creepy ‘chat-hoppers’ who harass other streamers are not the fault of female creators participating in the ASMR ‘meta’ or similar content, amid ongoing controversy over the new trend. The conversation regarding ‘sexual content’ on Twitch came to a boiling point when they made an entirely new category specifically for hot tub streams in May, after people found a loophole in the platform’s attire guidelines. Twitch stated that while they have guidelines about what is deemed sexually suggestive content, “being found to be sexy by others is not against our rules, and Twitch will not take enforcement action against women, or anyone on our service, for their perceived attractiveness.” The debate has been reignited once again after a new meta sprung up, that sees streamers lying down in yoga pants and licking an ASMR microphone live on stream. Although Twitch has yet to take an official stance, they did ban both Amouranth and Indiefoxx over their streams participating in the trend. 39daph and Amouranth speak out Now, Amouranth and fellow streamer 39daph have responded to people accusing women participating in the trend of driving creepy viewers to other female streamers. Streamer Susu_jpg claimed on Twitter that, “Twitch allowing blatant sexual content attracts a demographic that further hurts its female streamers who already deal with rampant sexism/sexual harassment regardless of what we wear,” and added that although they support the content, they think it belongs on adult sites. However, 39daph didn’t agree, explaining that there is no one to blame for creepy viewers except the creepy viewers themselves. as a woman streamer myself, I have not noticed an uptick in harassment or creeps in my chat and its not even like i have an insane moderation team, I have literally one moderator who only shows up like half the time — daph (@39daph) June 20, 2021 She went on to add: “Just my theory, but I highly doubt people who subscribe and pay for Amouranth/Indiefoxx’s OnlyFans are the ones actively going around harassing other women. The people doing that are the ones already on Twitch who just want to be a d**khead to other women.” its because I think its less likely that a man who willingly & monetarily supports women and supports sex workers will go around making misogynistic comments & harassing other women. overall they seem more respectful of women than GamerBros TM. — daph (@39daph) June 20, 2021 Daph also said that she hasn’t experienced an increase in “harassment or creeps” in her chat as a result of the meta. Susu responded that she knows several members of the ASMR community to have been affected, but Daph reiterated that: “People who want to harass women on twitch were already going to harass them.” Amouranth sides with 39daph As one of the biggest names to participate in the meta, Amouranth firmly agreed with Daph’s take. On the issue of the rise in creeps, she said: “It’s a problem, but is largely overblown. If anything, sexy streamers basically dive on the grenade that is offensively creepy and coomery people. But I guess make a mountain out of a molehill for a little bit of content I guess” It’s a problem, but is largely overblown. If anything sexy streamers basically dive on the grenade that is offensively creepy and coomery people But I guess make a mountain out of a molehill for a little bit of content I guess — Kaitlyn (@wildkait) June 20, 2021 She also rejected the idea that streamers like herself are responsible for bringing creepy people to the platform, saying instead that, “the people who we bring are on balance far far far more mild-mannered and open-minded than the average “Gamer bro.” The Twitch community has been thoroughly divided over this huge meta, and many are looking to the company to take a stance on the issue, as more people chime in to the conversation.

Amouranth admits she’s considered quitting Twitch over hot tub, ASMR abuse – Dexerto
Amouranth admits she’s considered quitting Twitch over hot tub, ASMR abuse Twitter/AmouranthKaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa revealed that she considered quitting Twitch after being harassed over her controversial hot tub and ASMR streams but ultimately decided to stay. Amouranth has been vocal about the “ironic” criticism she received over her latest Twitch ban, and it’s not only viewers condemning her streams. Some of the biggest names on the platform, including Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel and Jaryd ‘Summit1g’ Lazar, slammed the ASMR meta in general, which she helped popularize. But despite the brave front, she revealed that she’d received lots of hostility and harassment from viewers behind the scenes. It almost drove her to the point where she considered quitting the platform for good. She opened up about it in an interview with Polygon and explained what convinced her to stay and how she copes with it. “I have thought about it — like, is it worth it?” she said. But she reminded herself that “every job has stuff that isn’t peachy-keen perfect.” For example, “if you’re in retail, you have to deal with annoying Karens all day.” “Do I feel like I deserve [the harassment]? No, I don’t think anyone does,” she added. “But I do feel it’s worth it just to keep grinding while I’m young and have the energy, and then when I’m older and have saved enough money, I can actually do what I want with it.” Amouranth described her approach as “frontloading” the work rather than spreading it throughout her life. “I think that’s worth the harassment,” she said. And that’s what ultimately convinced her to stick it out. As for what she plans to do with the money eventually, Amouranth revealed that her “passion” is animals, and once she’s done “saving money” and “milking” it from her streams, she plans to start an animal rescue program. So, it seems like it’s all going according to plan for Amouranth, even if the perpetual harassment is difficult to bear at times.

Amouranth actually releases adult toy after Ludwig’s genius idea – Dexerto
Amouranth actually releases adult toy after Ludwig’s genius idea AmouranthStreamer and OnlyFans star Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa has released her own adult toy after Ludwig’s genius suggestion almost two years ago. From hot tub streams to ASMR to selling fart jars, It’s more than fair to say that Amouranth has had some major success over the past few years — making an absolute fortune through Twitch and adult content via OnlyFans. Earning herself between “$10,000-$15,000” for simply just sleeping on stream, the 29-year-old has made millions upon millions each month — which she’s used to heavily invest in her future. The business-savvy streamer has made some massive purchases — venturing into buying companies, gas stations, and stocks. Now, the OnlyFans star has even released her own adult toy — a genius idea that was first proposed by Ludwig years ago. Amouranth releases men’s adult toy after Ludwig’s idea During an episode of Ludwig’s ‘The Yard’ podcast in November 2021, the YouTube streamer suggested the next big idea for Amouranth. Noting how other streamers had previously sold adult toys on Twitch, Ludwig proposed that Amouranth makes her own adult toy for men — in line with her OnlyFans content. The Yard group even went as far as to give her ideas as to how she could market the product with a “How It’s Made” style video. And while Amouranth was on board with the idea at the time, she was a bit reluctant to sell the product through Twitch. “I would sell it, but not on Twitch,” she said. However, now close to two years later, the OF model finally released the toy named ‘Amouranth’s Assistant’ on July 6 — which is molded from her own genitalia. It’s unclear if Ludwig had any involvement in the creation of the toy. Regardless, it was a genius idea for Amouranth to take on board, with there being no doubt that some of her thirsty fans will buy it.

Amouranth accuses another site of “shadow banning” her as Instagram ban continues – Dexerto
Amouranth accuses another site of “shadow banning” her as Instagram ban continues Twitter/AmouranthTwitch star Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa is accusing another big social media platform of “shadow banning” her as Instagram continues to keep her account locked. Amouranth is one of the biggest content creators on the internet. Whether she’s streaming from her hot tub on Twitch, appearing on podcasts, or buying gas stations, she has a knack for drawing attention to herself. While all those eyes on her have earned her quite a large chunk of change over the years, so much attention can have some drawbacks. As she explained to Ludwig during an appearance on The Yard, Instagram won’t unban her account, despite the fact it was only suspended due to mass-reports by trolls. And as it turns out, Instagram isn’t the only site giving her challenges. Amouranth slams Twitter over “shadow ban” In response to reporter Tyler Erzberger on Twitter claiming it took him “10 minutes” to find her account due to a shadow ban, Amouranth took aim at the platform. “I too, would like to be unshadow banned,” she wrote, tagging Twitter Support. A shadow ban is different from a traditional ban where an account vanishes or is unable to post content for a period of time. When a user is shadow banned, they often don’t realize it because the site won’t outright say they were suspended. I too, would like to be unshadow banned @TwitterSupport @verified https://t.co/kQfJm5AJN4 — Kaitlyn (@wildkait) December 28, 2021 Instead, their posts and their account will be harder to find on a feed, even for those who follow or subscribe to them. This can have a huge impact on post engagements. Twitter didn’t respond to Siragusa’s concerns publicly, but it is possible they have contacted her through DMs to resolve the issue. In any case, it seems as if social media is becoming quite the cruel mistress for the popular entertainer.

Among Us VR’s launch has top streamers like Disguised Toast, Ludwig returning to hit title – Dexerto
Among Us VR’s launch has top streamers like Disguised Toast, Ludwig returning to hit title Twitch: Disguised Toast / Innersloth GamesAmong US VR has just dropped, with some of gaming’s biggest streamers like Disguised Toast and Ludwig hoping back online to play through the game together. The release of the game in virtual reality has brought it back to life on Twitch, too. Among Us broke out into the gaming sphere in 2021 as top streamers played tricks on their friends in the party game. After going into a lull following its explosive rise though, it’s back again — in VR. Among Us VR finally dropped on November 10, and it’s seen some of the top streamers who brought the game to prominence, like Disguised Toast and Ludwig, return as crewmates and imposters. Instead of just moving around with their keyboards though, they can really get into the action with full VR capabilities. Disguised Toast tweeted out he would be creating an Among Us VR lobby and would be bringing in some of his fellow streamer friends along for the journey on launch day. The likes of Corpse, Ludwig, Ironmouse, Valkyrae and others are all giving Among Us VR a go. The joint lobby and stream went on for just under two hours, with Toast having streamed the game solo in the lead up to the collaboration. At the end of the stream, they all suggested that the stream Among Us VR again — with Toast proposing they do daily hour long sessions for the game. During one moment in the game where Toast was the imposter, Toast and Valkyrae were in a room together, with Rae joking around and asking Toast “so do you come here often?” However, Rae quickly realized that Toast was the imposter, yelling and screaming and begging him not to kill her. Toast then told her to “just let it happen” and the two had a laugh at the end of the moment. Those weren’t the only funny moments of the day though. Other groups, such as NIJISANJI English, came together to backstab each other in virtual reality. One particular moment from their stream went viral when Shu Yamino, having seen fellow imposter Pomu Rainpuff jump into the vent, told Rosemi Lovelock about the moment before jumping in the vent himself. What makes the moment so funny is Shu’s laugh but also listening to Rosemi completely freaking out in the background. Viewers came out in their thousands for all the streams with Among Us VR. The game launched with more than 82,000 peak viewers on Twitch. While it’s not quite the explosive boom it had in 2021, it’s a respectable return for the party game. Given the VR version of the game has just come out too, be sure to expect more content from streamers to drop in the near future.

Amigops return to Among Us for final game ever and its a throwback – Dexerto
Amigops return to Among Us for final game ever and its a throwback The four Amigops consisting of Valkyrae, Sykkuno, Disguised Toast, and CORPSE HUSBAND returned to Among Us for their final game ever, and it was everything that viewers wanted. In the back half of 2020, the internet was obsessed with Among Us. Released by indie developers InnerSloth in 2018, the party game boomed in popularity seemingly out of nowhere. The collaboration opportunities that Among Us provided between content creators were unimaginable as we saw politicians, mainstream celebrities, and footballers joining in on the fun. The trend has been long dead and has died down, but the Amigops group – including Disguised Toast, Sykkuno, Corpse Husband, and Valkyrae – got together for old times sake for their last Among Us game ever, and it was exactly how fans remembered it. On January 15, the Amigops – who were undoubtedly the most popular Among Us group – were joined by their pals Pokimane, Fuslie, Karl Jacobs and others for their “last ever” Among Us lobby. Like always, the lobby was filled with laughter and hilarious moments that viewers won’t forget. After playing Among Us together for hundreds of hours, it became too easy for the group to figure out who the imposter was as they got to know each other so well with Sykkuno picking up on Toast’s “tell” for what role he was playing. As the night came to an end, Sykkuno took a moment to reflect on their last ever game of the once-popular multiplayer game. “I don’t think any of us regret grouping up for one last game ever,” said Sykkuno. “That’s it, for now, guys, I think Among Us has run its course. It’s cooked, it’s cooked now. There goes that.” Viewers were sad to see an end of an era, and are hopeful the group can find a way to make the game work again. “OTV & Friends Among Us lobbies are always so fun to watch. I really hope they can find a way to play the game without it being impossible for the imposter,” said the viewer. “Especially since they got all over 1000 hours in the game and can easily tell when someone f**ks up.” It is truly an end of an ara, but hopefully, we’ll once again see the Amigops return to Among Us at some point.

America’s Got Talent singer with stutter blows judges away with “inspiring” audition – Dexerto
America’s Got Talent singer with stutter blows judges away with “inspiring” audition Twitter: AGTSinger-songwriter Amanda Mammana blew the minds of America’s Got Talent judges with her recent audition despite suffering from a speech impediment. Auditioning in front of thousands of people, combined with knowing millions more will be watching at home is one of the hardest things a budding performer will do. Imagine being that performer… but you have a speech impediment that prevents you from saying your own name… and you have to say it in front of millions of people. That’s the story of 19-year-old singer-songwriter Amanda Mammana, who deals with a stutter, and left America’s Got Talent judges blown away after her audition. Amanda leaves judges windblown On July 18, Amanda took center stage for her audition for America’s Got Talent and immediately was met with a speech block. As she conversed with Howie Mandel, Amanda explained that she suffers from a speech impediment, and found out that she doesn’t stutter when singing. This intrigued the judges, but they were blown away as soon as she began singing a song that she created. As soon as her song ended, the crowd erupted in applause before the judges took over. Howie Mandel was the first to comment and asked what she thought about her performance. “It’s crazy, there were times when I was a kid where I was like ‘I could never do anything like this, I’m not good enough,’” Amanda commented. Mandel replied: “Good enough doesn’t explain what we just heard. It’s not only good, it’s great. Look how you’re moving this audience and I believe you’re moving millions of people at home. I just wanna say, thank you.” Heidi Klum, Sofia Vergara, and even host Terry Crews echoed Howie’s thoughts, complimenting Amanda on her courage to audition. Simon Cowell added: “Amazing, Amanda. I mean come on. You spoke to us very honestly about the issues you have with your speech. It’s terrifying auditioning when you don’t have an issue like that, and then you’re amazing. “Your voice is so pure, so beautiful. And also, you’re a good songwriter. You’re an incredible person. I’m so happy you came here.” This writer has a stutter as well, and gives major kudos to Amanda for having the courage to audition in front of millions of people.

American Idol fans ask for Katy Perry’s removal from the show after “deranged” cat video – Dexerto
American Idol fans ask for Katy Perry’s removal from the show after “deranged” cat video Instagram: american idol / Instagram: katyperryKaty Perry has horrified American Idol viewers after dressing and acting like a cat in a new cringe-worthy clip from the show. Amid the backlash, some have even called for her removal from the hit reality show. In its search for talent, American Idol has just finished airing its 21st season. Since making her debut as a judge on the show in 2018, Katy Perry has frequently been on the receiving end of backlash. Just earlier in this year’s season, Perry was booed by the audience for telling a contestant to “flip the script” and tone down on the energy and glitter. Now, Perry is seemingly back in people’s bad books after a reel posted to the show’s official Instagram caught wind across social media. Clad in black spandex and high-heeled boots, Perry pounced into action after being referred to as “cat woman” in the reel. Showing off her flexibility, the singer kicked a leg up into the air before setting her foot down on the judge’s table. While making claw-like hands, Perry announced, “I’m ready to prowl for talent.” The video ends after Perry “paws” at fellow judge Luke Brian. Some commenters pointed out how uncomfortable Brian looked throughout the ordeal. “[Poor] Luke Bryan, he has to deal with her,” one person said. Others were more focused on the second-hand embarrassment the video gave them, going so far as to demand Perry be removed as a judge. One commenter posted, “Can’t stand her, they need to get rid of her.” Perry is reportedly considering quitting the show after receiving continuous backlash. “Katy gets picked on for going out and trying to have fun making a TV show,” Brian told Fox News in the singer’s defense.

Ambulance called after students attempt TikTok’s ‘One Chip Challenge’ – Dexerto
Ambulance called after students attempt TikTok’s ‘One Chip Challenge’ UNSPLASH: Solen FeyissaAn ambulance was called after several students in Edina, Minnesota, became sick after doing the ‘One Chip Challenge’ from TikTok. In a statement, Edina Public Schools said that students at South View Middle School were treated at the health office, and others experienced “significant” eye pain after being exposed to chip dust. Several middle school students complained of having a hard time breathing after attempting the infamous ‘One Chip Challenge’ challenge, and an ambulance was called. The school health staff found no one had a severe allergic reaction or was injured as a result of the challenge. According to the district, the student who brought the chips to school was disciplined, and any students who attempt the challenge at school in the future will also be disciplined. Officials urged parents to speak to their children about the dangers of the challenge, which they say is “unsafe and disruptive to student learning.” There have been 39 calls to the Minnesota Poison Control Center as a result of the challenge since the end of 2021, according to WCCO. What is the ‘One Chip Challenge’ on TikTok? The ‘One Chip Challenge’ is a new social media challenge created by Paqui, a snack brand known for its spicy flavors. The challenge involves eating a single Paqui chip made with the Carolina Reaper Pepper and Scorpion Pepper, then waiting as long as possible before eating or drinking anything else. It reportedly started last year, although it’s recently been trending on TikTok and other social media platforms, as many people have filmed themselves trying it. However, experts have warned against the challenge, as consuming the spicy chip can lead to several side effects, including vomiting, nausea, belly pain, throat pain and mouth pain. Last month, a TikToker’s young niece went viral on the short-form app, after ending up in the hospital following her attempt at the challenge.

Amber Van Pelt hits back at TikTok fans saying Zoe LaVerne saved her life – Dexerto
Amber Van Pelt hits back at TikTok fans saying Zoe LaVerne saved her life Instagram: Amber Van PeltIn the midst of the controversy surrounding Zoe LaVerne’s relationship with a thirteen-year-old boy, loyal fans have been accusing Amber Van Pelt of betraying her former best friend, spamming her social media with comments claiming that Zoe LaVerne was the reason she was still alive following her mental health struggles. Not long ago, Van Pelt and LaVerne seemed to be the best of friends. They frequented each other’s social media channels nearly every day, with LaVerne comforting her during her messy split with Jack Hess over the summer. But with LaVerne facing intense scrutiny over her relationship with a 13-year-old minor – which Van Pelt had previously criticised as “intense” and akin to “p**dophillia” in a private exchange with Cody Orlove – Van Pelt has attempted to move on from their friendship and carry on posting as normal. However, the Zoe LaVerne fandom – who refer to themselves ‘zonuts’ – have continued to target Van Pelt in the wake of LaVerne’s latest controversy. In a recent Instagram live, Van Pelt called out ‘zonuts’ for one specific comment they kept making to her: namely, that LaVerne “saved her life” amid Van Pelt’s messy breakup over the summer. “Nobody [saved my life] but me. It was me!” Van Pelt insisted in response to the claims. “I’m the only reason I’m still here, and I want to make that very clear.” What happened between Amber and Zoe? Zoe LaVerne and Amber Van Pelt’s friendship came to an abrupt end in the early autumn of 2o2o. The last time Van Pelt posted about LaVerne was in early September of this year. Fans had little insight into the reason the two’s friendship broke down until messages between Van Pelt and Orlove were leaked after the latter’s Instagram account was hacked. Read More: Best of TikTok’s viral ‘Oh No’ trend – In the exchange, Van Pelt claims that she ended her friendship with LaVerne because of her “intense” relationship with the minor, her frequent claims that Orlove “beat the sh*t out of her” and for being generally “toxic to [Van Pelt’s] mental health] – with Van Pelt even claiming that LaVerne catfished her by pretending to be her ex-boyfriend. She also revealed in an Instagram live that LaVerne fabricated a rumor that she stole 11,000$ from the disgraced TikTok star. Meanwhile, LaVerne has recently announced that she has checked herself into a hospital, telling followers on her fan account that she’s “trying to find help before it’s too late.”

Johnny Depp wins $15m in Amber Heard defamation trial: Pokimane, Asmongold, more react – Dexerto
Johnny Depp wins $15m in Amber Heard defamation trial: Pokimane, Asmongold, more react CourtTV / Pokimane / Asmongold TwitchThe verdict has been reached in the Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp defamation trial that’s taken the internet by storm – with plenty of streamers reacting to the widely publicized result. Both A-list actors have spent over 6 weeks with their respective legal teams going over every piece of evidence and testimonies from close friends and family. People all over the internet have been engrossed in the proceedings as Depp seeks $50 million for defamation stemming from a 2018 Washington Post Op-Ed by Heard accusing her former partner of abuse. Throughout the trial, Heard has further accused Depp of abuse and is countersuing the Pirates actor for $100 million. Depp wins $50m trial against Amber Heard The trial ended with the jury unanimously deciding that Johnny Depp had proven all elements of defamation by Amber Heard. Depp was awarded $15 million while Heard will get $2 million in compensatory damages and $0 for punitive damages. The jury did find that Johnny Depp defamed Amber Heard – but it was through his attorney, Adam Waldman, and only in one of three counts. The legal battle has spurned viral trends, turned some of those involved in the case into social media stars, and rallied support from thousands who are making their own assessment at home. There was a long build up to the decision after the initial verdict did not include the compensatory damages for each claim, sending the jurors back to deliberate specifics. But after another moment, they came back to the courtroom to deliver the final reading that sealed the case for Depp. Amber Heard’s statement on losing Depp trial Heard was disappointed to hear the verdict and believes that Depp’s lawyers succeeded in “getting the jury to overlook the key issue” of Freedom of Speech. She says that the trial “ignored” the evidence that won them the defamation suit in the United Kingdom. https://twitter.com/realamberheard/status/1532083776741842945?s=20&t=CYeeymwDRJ8WPVUns6QWug Depp’s statement on winning trial Meanwhile, Depp was happy to hear the verdict and expressed his gratitude to his supporters who believed him from the start of the case.

Pokimane surprised by verdict It was a winding road to reach a verdict, and it opened the eyes of many people like Pokimane who saw this result as a clear shift in how these cases could be handled later. “That was an insanely, interesting trial… Guys, was that not crazy?” Pokimane said. “That was really interesting to follow. I guess after this verdict, my initial thoughts are that it might be a good thing to draw this line, essentially saying you cannot make claims to this extent without enough proof to take it to court. You can’t ruin someone’s career by speaking of them publicly unless that you can prove it occurred in a court of law.” xQc in disbelief Popular Twitch streamer, xQc was stunned to see how they jury awarded the victory to Depp. The actor’s team managed to actually prove Heard had made some statements with “malice,” meaning to make a statement about someone knowing its false or by having a reckless disregard for the truth. Asmongold pleased with verdict Like many, Asmongold was surprised with how the jury deliberated in the Depp v Heard case. It sounds like he was pleased with the outcome despite how unlikely Asmon thought a Depp win would be. Hasan on the nuance of Depp’s win Hasan had a lot to say about the decision and was surprised that Depp earned his victory in the American courts despite his loss overseas. Legal experts on the field called the trial “fair” as both Heard and Depp’s teams went presented their cases to the judge and juries. Still, the case has been a big spotlight online with huge streamers on YouTube, Twitch and more giving their takes throughout.

Amazon worker fired after complaining about lifting heavy items on TikTok TIKTOK: thatamazonguyy / UNSPLASHAn Amazon employee of 7 years revealed that he’s been fired from his job after he complained about picking up customer’s heavy packages on TikTok. In a viral clip with over 512,000 views, TikToker Kendall (thatamazonguyy) claimed that he got axed because he moaned about having to carry customers’ heavy orders in a video posted online. “Hi guys, I have some bad news. Uh, Amazon done fired my dumbass. Seven long years down the drain just like that,” he said in the clip. “I made a video about four weeks ago where I told people to stop buying heavy items from Amazon because, as an Amazon worker, I’m tired of lifting heavy items.” The content creator explained that although most viewers found the humor in the video, others, such as senior citizens who rely on online shopping for heavy items, were offended by it. “Most people took it as a joke, especially if you work at Amazon, you knew that I was kind of over-exaggerating… but a lot of people were offended by my video,” he said. “Especially people who are disabled or people who are older… I do wanna say, if you were offended by that video, I am sorry. I never meant to offend anyone or discriminate against anyone.” Although Kendall made a follow-up clip apologizing for his original video, the consequences of the post were swift and severe. “I already lost my job, and I am ineligible for rehire, so please forgive me,” he said. Many TikTok users in the comments were devastated by the news of Kendall’s termination, as they enjoyed watching his Amazon-related content. “Dang you be making me laugh on my breaks at Amazon noooooo,” one person wrote. “Nooo your videos helped me through peak times,” another said. “Bro what?!?

Amazon reportedly testing TikTok-style feed for its app – Dexerto
Amazon reportedly testing TikTok-style feed for its app Unsplash: CollabstrAmazon are reportedly internally testing a feed in the style of short-form video platform TikTok, as the app continues to get even more popular. TikTok has become immensely popular over the past few years, and every day more and more people are making accounts on the app to join in with the latest viral trends, and browse the huge amount of content available. Thanks to TikTok’s considerable popularity that doesn’t look set to slow down, many companies have been taking inspiration from the app’s vertical scroll video feed, and implementing it into their own platforms, such as Spotify, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and more. According to artificial intelligence firm Watchful Technologies, Amazon has been testing a feature among staff called ‘Inspire,’ which allows shoppers to scroll through images and videos of products on the site. First reported by The Wall Street Journal, the feature reportedly allows users to save, like, and share images of products, after which they can also purchase products directly from the feed. So far, it’s not clear whether or not Amazon has any plans to roll out this feature beyond a small number of Amazon employees. Amazon spokesperson Alyssa Bronikowski said that Amazon are “constantly testing new features to help make customers’ lives a little easier.” Apps like Instagram have been receiving a significant amount of backlash for their attempts at trying to emulate TikTok’s content style. In July, figures like Kylie Jenner joined the ‘Make Instagram Normal’ campaign, which led to the platform reverting the recent changes. However, it seems like the app could still be focusing on video content in the future.

As reported by Deadline, Amazon Prime Video is in talks with PlayStation regarding a possible live-action adaptation of the beloved, mythos-imbued action-adventure games. Some big names are already attached to the project: The Expanse producers Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, as well as The Wheel of Time’s producer, Rafe Judkins, are all hoping to work on the series. This potential project would mark the third in a trilogy of upcoming video game adaptations from major streaming services, joining the likes of the upcoming Twisted Metal and Last of Us series. Twisted Metal will air on Peacock and star Marvel’s Anthony Mackie, while The Last of Us will stream on HBO and feature The Mandalorian’s Pedro Pascal. As for who’s playing Kratos, we still don’t know… but Krato’s most recent game actor, Christopher Judge, would certainly be a major shout for fans. It’s unclear what part of Kratos’ story the show will focus on. With eight games in the lineup, producers can go in many directions — from his beginnings as a Spartan to his most recent conflict with the Norse pantheon. God of War: Ragnarok is set to release sometime in 2022 and will mark the end of Kratos’ Norse Mythology arc.

Amazon Music Twitch account banned from the Amazon owned platform – Dexerto
Amazon Music Twitch account banned from the Amazon owned platform TwitchAmazon Music’s own Brazilian Twitch account has been banned from the platform and nobody knows why. Every day we see streamers get banned on Twitch. Usually, it’ll be for breaking the platform’s lengthy terms of service, which all creators must abide by at all times when broadcasting. While streamers typically try their best to stick to the rules, we’ve seen some of the platform’s top creators slip up every now and then. Now, even the platform’s very own parent company, Amazon, has been banned, and fans are baffled as to why. Twitch bans Amazon account from platform According to StreamerBans, Amazon Music’s Brazillian channel received its first ban from the platform on February 11 — leaving Twitch fans absolutely puzzled. Adding to the confusion, the Amazon account was quickly unbanned after just 15 minutes. The jokes of course came flooding in, with numerous Twitch users mocking the platform for banning one of their own accounts. “Friendly fire was turned on,” multiple fans joked. “Tell me Twitch’s moderation is broken, without telling me Twitch’s moderation is broken,” one platform affiliate wrote. It’s unclear why the account was actually banned in the first place. Although, one Twitch viewer speculated the ban was related to DMCA. “I have to assume the DMCA team didn’t realize its a whitelisted channel allowed to use music usually not allowed for all other users,” they said. As surprising and bizarre as the situation is, this isn’t the first time the Amazon-owned platform has suspended one of their own accounts. In late 2021, Twitch banned the official Spanish Amazon Prime Video channel.

Amazon changes Kindle return policy after viral TikTok trend – Dexerto
Amazon changes Kindle return policy after viral TikTok trend Unsplash.com: Kwame Anim / TikTokAmazon is making changes to Kindle’s return policy after a viral TikTok trend taught readers how to, essentially, get books for free on the company’s e-readers. Kindles are one of the most popular methods for reading books in the modern age. Rather than buying dozens of physical volumes that take up space in one’s home, readers can now simply download any book onto a single device that they can take with them anywhere. That’s not the only convenient thing about the Kindle, though; recently, readers discovered a ‘hack’ that would allow them to experience a book in its entirety for free. The ‘hack’ became a trend on TikTok, a haven for viral content of all kinds and a popular home for tips and tricks such as this one. Viral TikTok hack comes under fire for showing how to get ‘free’ ebooks on Kindle This is the gist of it: Previously, readers could return a Kindle ebook within seven days if it didn’t meet their expectations and receive a full refund. This meant that, if they read the book quickly enough, they would basically get the entire experience for free. While it might have seemed like a harmless way to blaze through your favorite series, this wasn’t the case. In fact, authors are charged more for a chargeback than the amount they get paid for a sale, so this ‘hack’ (and any returns) actually cost them money. Authors across the internet spoke out against the TikTok trend, and the hashtag #dontreturnbooks permeated ‘BookTok’ as both readers and writers sought change from Amazon and consumers at large. Now, Amazon is taking measures against this ‘hack’ after it became so prevalent that it caused problems for the platform and its authors. At the time of writing, readers can only return an ebook if they’ve read 10% of it at maximum. This change follows a Change.Org petition urging the platform to make changes to its ebook return system that racked up over 78,000 signatures. This is just the latest TikTok trend to garner criticism after the ‘Kia challenge’ sparked a rash of thefts after showing that the cars could be started with just a USB cable.

Others proudly showed off their spending limits with Afterpay and Klarna. “Not me with my Afterpay limit, $2,000 and my Klarna $1,800,” one person commented. “My purchase power for Klarna is $2086 and Afterpay is $386 only because I just heard of Afterpay. Job sercurity. The chairs were on sale,” another wrote. For more entertainment news and other viral stories, be sure to check out our coverage.

Amazon driver goes viral after refusing to deliver packages because of dogs – Dexerto
Amazon driver goes viral after refusing to deliver packages because of dogs TikTok: Dripppy/Unsplash: yendegAn Amazon delivery driver has gone viral after he refused to drop off packages because he was confronted by two dogs on his drive. Over the last few months, pretty much every corner of the internet has gone viral at some point on TikTok. Though, the app is pretty obsessed with delivery drivers and their everyday escapades – be it through DoorDash, UberEats, or Amazon. Amazon drivers have gone a bit more viral than anyone else though. There was the interesting-looking clip of people stepping out the back of an Amazon van where viewers were split on what had actually happened inside and, more recently, you had a driver delivering packages in the midst of a police stand-off.

Bro, this was a day to day thing. I ran over 2000 times working at Amazon.” On top of his workout gains, the driver gained plenty of sympathy in the comments. “Same bro, I just leave the package where they are,” one said. “No, literally, you are not getting packages if your dogs are out,” added another. “I’m not afraid of dogs but I do find it ridiculous that people leave their dogs out unleashed knowing they have a package being delivered,” another commented. In a follow-up video, Dripppy noted that his Amazon depot had supplied him with a device that emit a low-frequency noise designed to distract the dogs, but he claimed it didn’t work anyway. So, if people may be annoyed at not getting their packages, they may want to take the advice of annoyed Amazon employees in the comments.

Amazon driver fired after stealing customer’s dog from their yard Unsplash: Andrew StickelmanAn Amazon delivery driver was immediately fired after trying to steal a customer’s dog from their front yard. Terrika Currence of Henry County, Georgia, recently caught her Amazon delivery driver attempting to steal her dog from her front yard. When Currence’s daughter noticed what was going on, she yelled for their dog to be saved. Fortunately, Currence was able to recover her dog from the back of the driver’s truck. The Amazon driver has since been fired. Amazon driver says he took the dog because it was “pretty” As Currence was opening the door to her home to put her Amazon package away, she heard her daughter scream, “The Amazon guy stole our puppy!” Shocked, Currence told WSB-TV that she immediately dropped her package and rushed to confront the driver. She then opened the door to the back of the driver’s Amazon truck. When Currence saw her dog sitting inside a bin, she could be heard saying in a personal recording, “F*cking Amazon done took my f*cking dog out of my f*cking yard!” Currence also told the news outlet that had she not approached the driver at that moment, they would have driven off with her dog. Though the dog was safely retrieved, Currence admitted she has a fear that every time a delivery driver comes to the house now, her daughter will be scared of their dog being taken. As for the Amazon delivery driver, they were fired from their job after Currence reported the issue. The driver has since told Atlanta News First that they were going to take the dog because “the dog was pretty” and they would “love” to have a puppy.

Amazon delivery driver goes viral after falling into customer’s septic pit – Dexerto
Amazon delivery driver goes viral after falling into customer’s septic pit TikTok: dovahkiin0103An Amazon delivery driver has gone viral on TikTok after falling into a customer’s septic pit while dropping off a package at the house. Over the last few years, Amazon has continued to gain popularity across the US — even going as far as starting its own delivery service. Many delivery drivers for Amazon have also taken to TikTok to share what goes on in their daily life, whether it’s delivering packages in a hailstorm or getting sent home for using the restroom. TikToker Dovahkiin0103 is the latest delivery driver to go viral on the app, this time because he fell inside a customer’s septic tank. Amazon driver falls into customer’s sewage pit On January 11, 2023, Dovahkiin posted a video from inside the septic pit, explaining that the ground came out from underneath him causing him to fall in. The TikToker attempted to climb out but doing so just loosened the dirt which increases the risk of the hole falling in and trapping him inside. “I just called dispatch, hopefully, they’re going to get the cops or the fire department here because I definitely don’t wanna climb out on my own again,” he said. In a second video, he revealed that the fire department was on its way to help him get out of the hole. He said: “I really do not wanna die in somebody’s [septic tank]. Hopefully, they don’t make me finish my route, but you never know.” In his third update, however, he revealed that he offered to finish his route after going home to take a shower and change his clothes. Amazon did make it a little bit easier, though, by having someone help him with the 100 stops he had left. As the videos went viral (all three have over a million views), viewers were quick to share their thoughts about the situation in the comments and many of them think he should file a lawsuit. “Hello, friend. Please immediately contact a lawyer, you may never have to work again. Please pal, take care of yourself that was too scary!,” one TikToker replied. Another viewer said: “You should get blood work done to make sure you didn’t contract hepatitis or so other waste-borne illnesses.” While others are slamming Amazon for even giving him the option to finish his route: “Amazon you should not have asked this from him. His supervisor and the supervisor above him should’ve come in to finish the route. Very uncalled for.”

Amazon customer baffled after delivery driver tosses package into tree – Dexerto
Amazon customer baffled after delivery driver tosses package into tree TikTok/__greensilk/AmazonAn Amazon delivery driver is making waves for all the wrong reasons after leaving a customer’s package stranded in a tree. Over the years, we’ve seen plenty of weird delivery stories. From drivers upset with their tips to employees risking their lives to reach their destination, there’s been no shortage of wild incidents. That said, no one likes having an order end up in the wrong location, whether it’s a pizza delivery, Uber Eats, UPS, or any other sort of ordering service. Leaving a package in a tree, however, is probably not on anyone’s bingo card – but if it was on yours, you’re going to get a kick out of this. Amazon delivery driver leaves customer’s package in tree In a video making rounds on TikTok, a user by the name of Greensilk revealed that they had spent 20 minutes searching for their package before finding it hanging in a tree. The clip begins with a screenshot from a delivery notice from Amazon where the driver confirmed the order had been completed with a caveat. “I apologize for the placement of the package. I was trying to toss it far in haha,” they wrote. In the comments, the TikToker explained that the driver was seemingly trying to throw the parcel over a locked gate. Sure enough, Greensilk eventually ended up finding her package while out on a walk, and it was indeed stuck in a tree. After some trial and error, the Chicago-based TikToker was able to get the package down by grabbing onto branches and standing on her tippy toes. Users in the comments were just as stunned as she was about the service, with some sharing their own nightmarish delivery experiences. “I had a FedEx guy hide a box so it wouldn’t get stolen, but he hid it so well it took me two days to find it,” one wrote. Luckily, nothing in the package was damaged, though it’s unlikely that this driver will be the benefactor of the Amazon Thank My Driver promotion if these shenanigans continue.

Amateur Chess player kicked from tournament for hiding phone in sock – Dexerto
Amateur Chess player kicked from tournament for hiding phone in sock HZ Toernooi/Tina RouwendalAn amateur chess player was kicked from a Dutch tournament after being caught hiding a phone in his sock, beating several players who were higher rated than him. Initially reported by Chess.com, the unnamed player was competing at the Hogeschool Zeeland University Chess Tournament, where he gained attention by beating several players “with almost perfect play” who were higher rated than them. According to a press release, during the seventh round, it was discovered that the player was going to the toilet with a phone so he could simulate the best moves possible. “Around 12-13 moves had been played when he want to the restroom, and we wanted to scan him. He initially refused, which is equivalent to an admission of guilt,” said the tournament director Hans Groffen to PZC. The player eventually agreed to get the scan, to which it detected a device. He claimed it was his watch; however, a phone was discovered. In Chess tournaments, players are strictly prohibited from having a phone in their pockets because simulators, even on phones, have become so powerful that you can essentially beat anyone with it. Following the discovery, the competitor was removed from the tournament and reported to the Dutch Chess Federation. Their tournament results still stand. “We’ve never experienced this before during our tournament. Of course, it is annoying that this happens to you as an organization, but on the other hand, you are also happy that this kind of bad apples are removed,” said Groffen. Cheating in Chess is remarkably easy, thanks to how easy it is to find all the perfect moves, which means tournament organizers have to be on the lookout for any ways a competitor may try to cheat. Hans Niemann, who has had serious cheating allegations leveled at him was recently put under strict anti-cheating measures after going on a winning streak.

Amanda Holden baffles TikTok fans with “bizarre” viral video – Dexerto
Amanda Holden baffles TikTok fans with “bizarre” viral video TikTok/ Instagram: Amanda HoldenTikTok viewers were left puzzled after Amanda Holden posted a video, which has since gone viral, showing off her outfit but in a way in which she looked like she was “being held captive.” Various celebrities from across the world have hopped onto TikTok as the platform has rapidly grown in popularity. Just some of the various names who have set themselves up on the app include Kim Kardashian, Lizzo, and Kevin Bacon. Yet another name to add to the list is British celebrity Amanda Holden, known for being a judge on Britain’s Got Talent, who currently has 1.2 million TikTok followers. However, her latest video seemingly advertising for a clothing brand, had some “scared” viewers baffled. But, there was actually a wholesome reason behind her “strange” behavior. Amanda Holden goes viral on TikTok over scarf video On September 1, Holden posted a video while on holiday with her family in Sicily in which she showed off her attire including her bright yellow dress and a lemon-adorned scarf. However, it was her seemingly scripted behaviour and bizarre comments which had some viewers confused: “It’s daytime, but it’s still a bit sexy. You know me, that’s just how I like it.” Many baffled viewers urged her to “blink” or “wear blue in your next video if Simon Cowell is holding you hostage.” While others also found Holden’s dialogue fairly relatable: “Me in my French speaking exam.” However, what many of her fans didn’t know was that Holden was actually doing an impression of Sydney-based fashion star Patti Pink Cake. The Instagram creator similarly became an internet sensation over one video in which she wished her fans a “happy Thursday” and showed off her bright pink attire, including her colourful scarf. Holden has already hit some hits with her TikTok content displaying her outfits from behind the scenes of Britain’s Got Talent. However, this particular video will no doubt go down as one of her most popular.

Amanda Cerny under fire after “begging” for Twitch subscriptions – Dexerto
Amanda Cerny under fire after “begging” for Twitch subscriptions Amanda Cerny, YouTubeYouTube star, fitness model, and actress Amanda Cerny is facing mass backlash across social media after a clip from her Twitch stream went viral, where she urged viewers to subscribe to her channel. Cerny is a hugely popular face in the online entertainment world, boasting over two million subscribers on YouTube, and over 26 million followers on Instagram. However, it seems that Cerny’s subscriber count on Twitch leaves much to be desired, according to a clip taken from her stream in early May. In the clip, Cerny appears to bargain with her viewers, citing a subscriber goal of 500 subs in exchange for a regular streaming schedule on the platform. “We gotta get to 500 subs,” Cerny stated, looking directly at the camera. “It’s the only way I’m committing to the stream schedule. We’re at 187. Like… I don’t know what to tell ya.” https://twitter.com/M101News/status/1257166443180949506?s=20 The clip quickly went viral, with one user accusing the star of “begging” for subscriptions — an offense that has landed many Twitch streamers in the social media hotseat as of late. Cerny was quick to respond to the backlash, replying to one critic who tagged her in a Tweet that read, “Amanda Cerny Kinda hate you now.” “Why?” she replied. “Watch my stream clips and you’ll see it’s an ongoing question from fans for me to be on a Twitch schedule* that I cant justify right now, so I set a goal of 500 sub for me to commit to a *stream schedule.*” https://twitter.com/AmandaCerny/status/1257389509290926088?s=20 Another critic was quick to point out that broadcasting with a regular streaming schedule is a good way to gain subscriptions organically — an argument that Cerny had another answer for, claiming that streaming on Twitch isn’t her top priority. “… I never said I wouldn’t stream,” she retorted. “I said for my streams to be on a schedule. Same time each day. Which makes complete sense. Until then, I stream as often and when I can, as it’s a hobby and not my main focus, and needs to have incentive to take priority.” https://twitter.com/AmandaCerny/status/1257390260771786757?s=20 Cerny has continued to come under fire in wake of the clip going viral, with critics echoing similar sentiments in the cases of streamers like Invadervie and BadBunny thrashing viewers for not subscribing to their channels, in the past.

Amanda Bynes spotted for first time since re-entering mental health facility – Dexerto
Amanda Bynes spotted for first time since re-entering mental health facility Instagram: amandabynesnewsAfter re-entering herself in a more therapeutic mental health facility, Amanda Bynes has been sighted for the first time. Actress Amanda Bynes has been on a rollercoaster of a ride when it comes to her mental health treatment. In 2013, Bynes was forced to adhere to a conservatorship that controlled the treatment of her mental health regardless of whether she approved of it or not. Since then, she’s been in and out of hospitals. However, Bynes was recently spotted this past Friday for the first time since her most recent hospital admittance. Amanda Bynes graduates to ‘minimal supervision’ at her treatment center Bynes’ conservatorship was set into place after she reportedly set fire to a driveway in 2013. According to her attorney, David Esquibias, Bynes’ parents were worried for her safety, saying, “It seemed like the right thing to do at the time.” A year later, Bynes admitted via Twitter that she was on medication after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Since then, she has been in and out of hospitals for various amounts of time during each stay. Most recently, she entered into a more therapeutic hospital setting compared to her previous outpatient stay where her treatment wasn’t managed to her likeness. Though her conservatorship ended in 2022, nine years after she was obliged to follow the care requirements of her mother as well as medics, Bynes is still in treatment for her mental health. However, sources have revealed that she has graduated to minimal supervision, meaning she may leave the property of her current treatment center. Since graduating to a more independent mental health program, Bynes has been spotted for the first time out in public on Friday running errands in Orange County, California. Bynes was seen alone outside a smoke shop while dressed down in jeggings, a plain tee shirt, and a styled updo. She has yet to make a public statement regarding her conservatorship as well as her current mental health treatment. However, sources close to the ‘What a Girl Wants’ actress stated that she is in good spirits.

Amanda Bynes responds as fans shocked by new look after viral TikTok – Dexerto
Amanda Bynes responds as fans shocked by new look after viral TikTok TikTok: calabasaswingsAmanda Bynes has defended her new look after stories swirled online about the differences between ‘then and now.’ Amanda Bynes has seldom been in the media since her early acting career, as she’s been in and out of hospitals for mental health treatment since 2013. However, her recent announcement online about her podcast with Paul Sieminski had fans questioning her new look. Bynes has since responded, admitting to getting plastic surgery. Amanda Bynes had plastic surgery on her face and eyes A TikToker recently uploaded a video of Bynes from 2003. The poster intended to show the difference in Bynes’ new look by including a text overlay saying, “Amanda Bynes in 2003 vs Amanda Bynes in 2023.” The video compared Bynes’ appearance during an interview earlier on in her career to a video she recently uploaded about the podcast she just started. However, after multiple stories began to swirl in the media about Bynes’ “new look,” she shared an update, revealing she had plastic surgery on the skin folds and corners of her eyes to reduce the puffiness and bags. She said the plastic surgery was “one of the best things” she could have ever done for her “self-confidence.” Though Bynes shared details about her plastic surgery, she had only done so to clear up the rumors she was reading online about how differently she looked. Fans of Bynes who noticed the changes in her face have reacted by saying the comparison from 2003 to 2023 looked like “two different people.” Another fan wrote, “I think the way she is now, particularly her style, is what she truly is and not that Ms. ‘perfect’ girl.” However, many fans of Bynes shared that they were eager to hear her new podcast. They also commented saying they want Bynes to have a “comeback.” Though fans have their concerns, Bynes is clearly happy about her plastic surgery results. As for her new podcast, the first episode aired on Spotify just a few days ago on December 8 where she and her co-host spoke with tattoo artist Dahlia Moth.

Alpharad hilariously performs Ninja’s worst tweets in viral ‘Copypasta Theatre’ – Dexerto
Alpharad hilariously performs Ninja’s worst tweets in viral ‘Copypasta Theatre’ Twitch: Ninja, Twitter: AlpharadEsports tournament organizer turned YouTube star Jacob ‘Alpharad’ Rabon IV has gone viral for his ‘Copypasta Theatre’ video where he dramatically acts out some of Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins most infamous tweets. As Super Smash Bros sensation Alpharad continues to blossom on YouTube, he’s gone viral after creating a video called ‘Copypasta Theatre.’ Set on the dimly lit stage that would be used for a future production of the iconic musical ‘Rent,’ the king of fighting games made his debut alongside a varied cast of content creators. Their mission was to create a performance unlike any other: they’d be reading out some of Twitch’s most scandalous copypasta. And that’s exactly what they did, but to bring a truly artistic flavor to this incredibly unique performance, Alpharad went one step further by dramatically reading out tweets from Twitch behemoth, Ninja. Cue the spotlight, folks. Ninja’s classics in theater Standing on top of the stage’s upper walkway, he stalks onto the stage before slamming his hand down on the set’s railing. “The phrase ‘it’s just a game,’ is such a weak mindset,” he exclaims, a quote from Ninja’s iconic 2020 tweet. “You are OK with what happened, losing, imperfection of a craft… There’s always something to learn, and always room for improvement, never settle,” he concludes. Going on to mimic the now-deleted tweet about NFL kickers missing shots despite being at the top of their game, one of Alpharad’s colleague stands up and blasts him with the response: “I’ll never understand how pro Fortnite players just… miss shots. I feel like there has to be pools of pro players who can just click on their heads and hit every shot with 100% accuracy, just seems so SILLY.” Again Alpharad uses the metal set to his advantage, cutting the hater off with a stomp of his feet and a snappy “this is the s**ttiest reply ever.” With a dramatic jump down the stairs he concludes his segment by referencing yet another deleted tweet. This one, however, set the world ablaze when it dropped back in early 2021. “I am in the middle of carrying a League of Legends game about to close it out, and my bra-less wife brings me a sandwich (not asked for) with chips as I get a double kill bot lane,” Alpharad announces. “So, how’s your day going?” With almost 10k likes at the time of writing, and the YouTube video already over half a million views in a few days, Alpahrad’s hilarious antics have been a hit. Ninja meanwhile, is yet to respond. Move over Shakespeare, there’s a new performer in town, and there’s none of that “it’s just a game” mentality in sight, he’s here to play.

Alpha House Boys: TikTokers accused of queerbaiting by pretending to be gay for profit – Dexerto
Alpha House Boys: TikTokers accused of queerbaiting by pretending to be gay for profit Instagram, Spence McManusA group of TikTokers said to be associated with a group called ‘Alpha House Boys’ have been accused by influencer Barrett Pall of “pretending to be gay” for financial gain and social media followings. The accusations came after a series of alternate social media accounts were discovered linked to several TikTokers. Pall accused several of these influencers of doing “gay for pay” and “profiting off” the experiences of the LGBTQ+ community. In posts to TikTok and Instagram, Pall sought to call out these users for what he believes is hypocrisy. In his videos, he also said he believes that they are perpetuating harmful stereotypes that could have an impact on LGBTQ+ youth. A lot of the TikTokers are associated with a group called “Alpha House Boys” that have a TikTok, an Instagram, and a Twitter. Many of them feature in each other’s videos and Instagram posts, some with directions to OnlyFans accounts charging people subscriptions. However, on their ‘main’ accounts, some claim to have girlfriends, and there are no references to being members of the LGBTQ+ community, in stark contrast to their alternative accounts. Influencer Barrett Pall calls them out Accusations that the Alpha House Boys were pretending to be gay were fueled after a viral TikTok, posted by influencer Barrett Pall, accused several members of “pandering and pretending to be gay.” Starting by saying he was “so angry”, Pall went onto accuse the TikTokers of pretending to be gay “to make money” and said it was “one of the grossest things he had seen on this app [TikTok].” He accused the group of “making money off our lived experience.” Towards the end of the video, Pall accused the TikTok platform of hypocrisy. The influencer accused the app of “targeting queer creators and kicking them off the app” but said TikTok is allowing this group “to do whatever they want.” Click here if link does not load Pall has also posted the accusations on his Instagram. Other influencers have gone on to mock the group, including actor Johnny Sibilly who posted a duet of him laughing at one of the Alpha House Boy’s videos.

She accused the group of being “homophobic” and said they should “not profit off the queer community.” View this post on Instagram The alternative “gay” accounts Many of the accounts appear to be linked to “AlphaHouseBoys” – an account that has TikTok, an Instagram and TikTok linked to it. In addition, there is an OnlyFans account charging $10 a month or $105 total for six months. Another account often linked with these videos charges $210 for a year. Every video features Pride emojis as well as hashtags such as #lgbtq, #gayvibes, and #gays. From the captions to the descriptions, it would appear they are either gay or bisexual. On Twitter, it’s advertised they are promising “guy/guy content” in their Onlyfans. Many of the videos on TikTok feature sexualized jokes. Others are “pranks” on supposed straight friends or strangers in public but the “strangers” are other members of the Alpha House Boys. However, on Twitter, Alphahouseboys present themselves as “straight”. They promise videos of “straight guys in action” and “pushing the limits with their friends.” Read more: Who is Cameron Herrin? – The accounts on TikTok appear to be attempting to use the social media platform’s algorithm to target audiences who typically engage with LGBT+ related content. Many of the men featured in the video have their main social media account with some referring to girlfriends. Then they have an alternative account clearly targeted towards gay and bisexual men as well as the wider LGBT+ community. On Instagram, the alternative accounts link back to the main accounts. For example, “Spence McManus” who boasts over 140,000 followers on Instagram and over 1 million on TikTok presents himself as heterosexual on his main account with references to a girlfriend in several videos. However, he also has alternative accounts under variations of “shreddedkid” or by the name “Scott Moorehead”. While Instagram is private, his TikTok content is clearly targeted towards LGBT+ people with one video even denying they were “straight.” What’s the point? Initially, the accounts appear to simply be an attempt to generate a significant following on social media with one account on TikTok catering to one specific audience while having an account that caters to another. A trend seen amongst the accounts is no acknowledgment on the main “straight” social media account. For example, Spence McManus does not follow the private Instagram account linked to his Onlyfans on his main account. Alternatively, on the private accounts, there are often requests to follow their main accounts or other accounts linked to Alpha House Boys to be accepted. This appears to be an attempt to drive up followers while keeping the presence of the OnlyFans absent on their main social media platforms. Read more: How to watch the D’Amelio Show on Hulu – However, there appears to be a secondary motive behind all this: money. By linking their OnlyFans pages to their Twitter accounts and Instagrams, they appear to be using the platforms they have created from marketing themselves as “gay” to generate income. The issue with Alpha House content Many LGBTQ+ users have criticized the group pointing to harassment and discrimination members of the LGBTQ+ community face. In the United States according to a study by the Centre for American Progress, “more than 1 in 3 LGBTQ Americans faced discrimination of some kind in the past year, including more than 3 in 5 transgender Americans.” Alongside this, TikTok has also been accused of letting its algorithm promote homophobic and transphobic content. TikToker Chris aka. Donelij, whose account got millions of views before it was banned, was accused of homophobia in his videos. One member of the LGBT+ community, Deanna, said that she thought “it’s just so wrong” if the Alpha House Boys are pretending to be gay. Read more: Bryce Hall hits back at boxing critics – She went onto say “as if LGBTQ+ people go through years of struggle, discrimination and hardship… for [them] to come along and almost appropriate it and lie”. The potential impacts on LGBT+ youth Others, like Pall, have also emphasized concern about the impact people pretending to be gay might have on LGBTQ+ youth. TikTok remains one of the top social media apps for teens in the US. Some believe some young teens on the app might look to the relationships and stereotypes shown in AlphaHouseBoy videos as examples for future relationships. Dexerto reached out to TikTok and Alpha House Boys for comment but is yet to receive a response.

Alligator named Darth Gator is trained to answer to the Star Wars theme – Dexerto
Alligator named Darth Gator is trained to answer to the Star Wars theme Twitter: Everglades / Lucasfilm Ltd.An alligator named after a famous Star Wars villain has been revealed to hilariously answer the call of his very own theme song. It may come as a surprise to some that alligators can be trained — well, to a degree. Despite their hostile appearances and a set of very sharp teeth, it turns out these reptiles aren’t opposed to learning new tricks. And one in particular has Twitter falling in love with his impressive tricks. Star Wars fans better pay attention and prepare to meet a new mighty foe: Darth Gator. Posted by ‘Everglades’ on Twitter, the video shows Paul Bedard — an actor and star of the TV show Gator Boys. Bedard is also a trapper known for saving gators from harvest. Approaching a pool of alligators in the video, Bedard said, “Going to see if Darth can hear from this far away.” He then played The Imperial March, the main theme song for Star Wars’ famous lead villain. Sure enough, one of the gators began to “march” forward. Bedard revealed he could even get the gator to stop by simply hitting pause on the song. Darth Gator was rewarded for his good behavior, given a meaty snack and of course, compliments by both Bedard and those watching online. Twitter users hailed the gator, with one writing, “Imagine being an alligator and having your own theme song. The other gators must think he’s so badass!” Another said, “The fact that he was perfect on the beat with his Vader walk,” with a third person sharing a similar sentiment; “The slappy slap of his feet.” Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.

Alleged scam website gives surprising response to backlash from Jake Paul and RiceGum scandal – Dexerto
Alleged scam website gives surprising response to backlash from Jake Paul and RiceGum scandal Jake Paul, YouTube / Chris SaintAlleged gambling and scam website MysteryBrand.net has finally responded to the backlash surrounding popular YouTubers Jake Paul and Bryan ‘RiceGum’ Le, who are facing heavy criticism for partnering with the brand. The website spoke out on the issue in a Tweet on January 4, where they encouraged any users unsatisfied with their services to contact their customer support branch. “Hey! Please, for all users who used our website and won some products, and who made a delivery request on [them], please provide all the details that you received [on] products [to] support@mysterybrand.net,” the site wrote (albeit with some questionable spelling). “It will help us to improve our services for faster and better delivery of all items. 🙏” Hey! Please for all users who used our website and wins some products and who made a delivery request on it please provide all the details that you recieved products on support@mysterybrand.net it will helps us to improve our services for faster&better delivery of all items. :pray: — MysteryBrand (@MystetB) January 4, 2019 The Tweet has since been met with vocal disapproval, with many commenters noting the site’s $250,000,000 Los Angeles mansion up for grabs – which Drama Alert host Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem discovered doesn’t even belong to the brand, but is currently up for sale. Since Jake Paul and RiceGum’s partnered videos with the brand went live, many fans have expressed dissatisfaction with the site, with some even calling out the YouTubers for promoting gambling to their relatively young audiences. Both YouTubers have since responded to the debacle, with RiceGum expressing remorse due to his involvement in the scheme and admitting that he was paid a pretty penny for promoting the service. Jake Paul spoke out with a simple Tweet urging his young fans to stay away from gambling, which has since been met with ample backlash from critics.

Tarkov cheater who denied hacking accidentally shows it on stream, gets banned – Dexerto
Tarkov cheater who denied hacking accidentally shows it on stream, gets banned A Twitch streamer who vehemently denied that he cheats while playing Escape from Tarkov has had his account banned after accidentally revealing the cheat he uses on stream, and threatening legal action against those who say he uses hacks. Allegations of using cheats first appeared on Wednesday, June 6, when a video was posted to the /r/LivestreamFail subreddit that claimed to show Kablamo locking on to players who were hidden by walls and headshot after headshot on unsuspecting opponents. Although the streamer denies using cheats, he was able to provide viewers with some oddly specific information about them when attempting to shut down the accusations, and added more fuel to the fire on June 6 in the hours before his Twitch was shut down. Kablamo first claimed that he would take the Reddit user who made the video to court, and confirmed that he was asking him to remove the video before he had to proceed with issuing a copyright claims against it, and possible legal action. “I have enough money to go to court for this thing,” the Twitch streamer told his audience. “I will be willing to gladly go to court for this. I have it ready, I’m asking him to take it down now so I don’t have to submit it.” “I’m asking him once to just take it down, so I don’t have to go to court for it. If he decides to challenge the copyright, he will have to go to court.” Kablamo accidentally reveals his Escape from Tarkov cheat Kablamo then decided to pull up his cheat injector, trying to show his viewers that it wasn’t possible to use hacks in Escape from Tarkov, and that while he had cheats installed, they were for others games like Pavlov VR. In this clip, where he shows off the hacks he has installed, an eagle-eyed viewer managed to spot the name of one of these cheats, and upon searching the name of the cheat, discovered that the first result took them to a page dedicated to Escape from Tarkov cheats. Once this became apparent, Kablamo then attempted to convince those watch that the cheat was actually a GTA V hack. However, the URL of the webpage he showed to the stream specifically mentioned the game, meaning it’s likely that he had to search for Grand Theft Auto for it to not show the Tarkov version. Following this, the streamer’s Twitch account was taken down, although the reason for this remains unclear. The platform’s Terms of Service state that “any activity, such as cheating, hacking, botting, or tampering, that gives the account owner an unfair advantage in an online multiplayer game,” is against their Community Guidelines, so it’s likely that this was the reason. We have reached out to Twitch for comment on the ban.

All Time Low call viral TikTok claims of inappropriate behavior “unequivocally false” – Dexerto
All Time Low call viral TikTok claims of inappropriate behavior “unequivocally false” WikiMedia Commons: UpsetMagazinePopular music group All Time Low have denied allegations of “inappropriate behavior” made about them from viral TikTok posts, calling the claims “absolutely and unequivocally false.” In early October, a TikTok from user Mini.Grew up picked up traction after she made reference to a “famous pop punk band” letting her onto their tour bus when she was only 13. The TikToker further alleged that the group offered her beer, tried to take her bra, as well getting her friend’s phone home number which apparently led to them having to “harass” her friend’s mom to speak to them. Mini.Grew didn’t name the band outright, but offered hints in the comments of her post by referencing songs titles – Poppin Champagne and Kids in the Dark – both of which are All Time Low tracks. Despite the claims gaining attention earlier in the month, and further being made on social media, the group didn’t issue a response until October 25, labeling them as “absolutely and unequivocally false.” Read More: Is it a Bones or No Bones day on TikTok? – They stated: “When a TikTok video gained traction a few weeks ago alluding to inappropriate behavior within our camp, we chose not to respond because of the glaring inconsistencies in the story and the apparent reluctance to mention us by name. We felt that a response would have elevated and escalated an outright lie and in doing so robbed actual victims of abuse of their very real and very important collective voice. “We believe victims. We stand with victims. We have only ever wanted to cultivate and nurture a culture around our show and band that is welcoming, healthy, and safe.” A statement from the four of us. pic.twitter.com/tazxZAKOkr — All Time Low (@AllTimeLow) October 25, 2021 With many different claims being made in wake of the TikTok, the band note that they are “investigating the source” of what they believe are “false accusations” and will be “seeking legal recourse.” Some fans have labeled the statement as “disappointing” and asked them to “rethink it,” though others are supportive of the investigation.

All the highlights from the UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor pre-fight press conference – Dexerto
All the highlights from the UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor pre-fight press conference Ultimate Fighting ChampionshipThe pre-fight press conference for UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor was one of the most bizarre in recent memory, but it still offered some moments of pure entertainment – as the highlight video shows. For the unaware, the pre-fight presser was expected to be a classic war of words between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov but that particular confrontation never materialized due to Khabib leaving early and Conor arriving late. “Hey, I no need to wait for nobody, this is 3pm,” Nurmagomedov stated after Dana White revealed that the Russian would not be waiting for Conor to turn up. “Friends are here, media is here, everybody is here.” Khabib would go on to reveal that the fight is a personal one for him, saying: “He will have to kill me to stop me,” and explaining that he thinks his wrestling and pressure will be too much to handle. Eventually the 30-year-old, who has a perfect 26-0 record and is the current Lightweight champion, stated: “15 minutes I am here, this guy didn’t come. This is big disrespect,” before walking out of the arena. Shortly after, McGregor took to the stage and immediately started to say that the only reason for Khabib’s departure was that he was too scared to face him. “He doesn’t wanna be around me, he doesn’t wanna be around these people. He is petrified,” the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion stated. “I also don’t give a bollocks. I’ve experienced it all!” McGregor went on to say that he has returned because this is what he loves and that there will “never be peace” between hm and his opponent. This isn’t the first time that the Irishman has turned up to a press conference after the allotted start time. In fact, it is largely par for the course and it would appear that his opponent was not willing to play the game, opting to leave before he even showed up. It’s not all doom and gloom, though. The two fighters will step on stage once again on October 5 for the ceremonial weigh-ins and face-off. Having missed out on the chance to hurl abuse at each other on Thursday, expect both men to being their A game. The fight for the lightweight belt will take place on October 6 in Las Vegas.

All Married At First Sight couples who are still together – Dexerto
All Married At First Sight couples who are still together NineMarried At First Sight gave viewers 17 amazing seasons of heart-fluttering romance, but how many couples who got married on the US-version of the show are still together today? Married At First Sight premiered in the USA in 2014 and, since then, has successfully brought together several compatible singles. However, not all knots tied on the show worked out in real life, and many couples divorced afterward. None of the couples from Seasons 2, 3, 4, 13, 14, and 15 are still together. Here are all the couples who tied the knot during the show and stayed together after the cameras stopped filming. Contents Season 1 Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner 27-year-old nurse, Jamie Otis-Hehner, and 31-year-old software salesman, Doug Hehner, found connection with each other on the dating reality show. The pair tied the knot during the 2014 season and became inseparable. They were featured on their very own spin-off called Married at First Sight: Jamie and Doug Plus One which documented the couple’s first pregnancy journey. The pair had a son and a daughter together, and on 21 February 2024, Jamie announced their third pregnancy to fans on Instagram. Season 5 Ashley Petta and Anthony D’Amico Ashley and Anthony were matched up on Season 5 of MAFS and both said ‘yes’ on their Decision Day. The two continued to grow together and were featured on ‘Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After?’.

Season 6 Jephte Pierre and Shawniece Jackson 29-year-old cosmetologist Shawniece Jackson and 26-year-old school teacher Jephte Pierre proved to be an amazing match during Season 6. Despite the relationship struggles that viewers saw during the season, the pair continued to form a healthy relationship. They welcomed their first child, Laura, in August 2018 and the entire family was featured on Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After? Season 7 Danielle Bergman and Bobby Dodd Dani and Bobby were the MAFS couple that seemed too good to be true, and naturally, the pair chose to stay married on their Decision Day. They were also featured on ‘Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After?’ and the couple announced their first pregnancy during another Reunion special in 2018. Dani and Bobby’s first daughter, Olivia, was born in 2019, followed by their son, Robert, in December 2020, and their third child, Savannah Ann, in 2023. Season 8 Stephanie Sersen and AJ Vollmoeller AJ and Stephanie were among the two couples who decided to stay in a relationship at the end of Season 8. The two had their fair share of relationship ups and downs on the show but managed to navigate successfully and build a beautiful partnership. Presently, the pair has no children and spend most of their time traveling together. Kristine Killingsworth and Keith Dewar Kristine and Keith had many turbulent and emotional moments on MAFS Season 8, but the couple overcame them all. The pair showed viewers healthy ways to navigate different views in marriage, especially tackling money management and family planning. Season 9 Deonna McNeill and Gregory Okotie Deonna and Gregory were the only pair from Season 9 who decided to continue their relationship after Decision Day.

Season 10 Austin Hurd and Jessica Studer Jessica and Austin were another successful match on Married At First Sight, and throughout the season, viewers saw their bond grow stronger.

The couple had a strong connection from the beginning and their relationship continued growing. Their first baby boy, Reign, was born on June 3, 2022, followed by Rai Zahir in November 2023. Season 12 Briana Myles and Vincent Morales Out of the three couples that said ‘Yes’ on their Final Day, only Briana and Vincent remained together.

All Hololive members: EN, JP, ID, Holostars, more – Dexerto
All Hololive members: EN, JP, ID, Holostars, more HololiveWith it being the largest agency in the VTuber industry, it’s a given that Hololive Production would be home to all kinds of talents and feature a wide range of members. Founded in June 2016, Cover Corp began life as an augmented reality software developer. However, like Nijisanji, the company’s real success story would come with VTubers, specifically Hololive. The company’s first Virtual idol Tokino Sora debuted in 2017, while the other members of Generation 0 hosted their first streams the following year. The agency’s success in Japan continued before Hololive eventually went international. First Hololive Indonesia in April 2020, and then Hololive English followed shortly after in September 2020. This impressive growth has not stopped either with more waves and branches arriving since. This growth can make it hard to keep track of everyone, but this comprehensive list of every Hololive member will make doing so much easier, including both active and graduated talents. Hololive EN members Debuting in September 2020, Hololive English was Cover’s first attempt to reach a Western audience. These talents primarily produce content for English speakers, but still regularly collaborate with members from other branches. This branch features 18 active talents and one graduated talent, with Tsukumo Sana remaining the only member to leave Hololive EN. Here’s every member of Hololive EN: holoMyth Project: HOPE* *Project: HOPE was discontinued on October 9, 2023, with IRyS joining holoPromise. holoCouncil* *holoCouncil’s four remaining members moved to holoPromise on October 9, 2023, alongside IRyS. holoAdvent holoPromise holoJustice Hololive JP members The original Hololive branch was kickstarted by Tokino Sora’s first streams on Niconico in July 2017. The talents have since come a long way with several generations debuting. Members of this branch almost exclusively stream in Japanese but are well-known internationally. This branch features 33 active talents and six graduated talents, with Minato Aqua being the latest member to leave.

This branch features nine active talents and no graduated talents, with every member of the Indonesian branch still actively streaming to this day.

Alix Earle tears up revealing “toxic” eating disorder – Dexerto
Alix Earle tears up revealing “toxic” eating disorder YouTube: Hot Mess with Alix EarleSocial media star Alix Earle broke into tears while describing her recovery from a “toxic” eating disorder that started during high school in the latest episode of her podcast. Alix Earle is a hugely popular social media star, boasting over 9 million followers combined across her TikTok and Instagram accounts. Earle is widely known for her relatable ‘get ready with me’ videos, where she’ll opine on a particular topic or tell a story from her own life as she prepares for the day with makeup and skincare routines. While Earle’s life certainly looks charming from the outside, the influencer opened up about a “toxic” eating disorder she battled in high school and how she has recovered over the years. Alix Earle opens up on eating disorder in emotional podcast episode Earle opened up about her ED during an October 5 episode of her podcast, ‘Hot Mess with Alix Earle.’ In the episode, Earle claimed that her eating disorder first started in high school, when she’d see her classmates “paying thousands of dollars” to go on “extreme diets.” She said that watching her friends lose pound after pound normalized extreme dieting for her and sparked her difficult relationship with food. “I just went down such a bad path with myself, with my body, with my image, and I started to have this sort of body dysmorphia,” she said. “I would look in the mirror and I would see someone way bigger than the person that I was.” Eventually, Earle restricted her diet so much that she was only eating very small amounts of food and constantly looking for a toilet to throw up in wherever she dined. In the lead-up to her prom, Earle said that she completely avoided carbs, drinking only water and eating only ginger the day before the big event. Despite feeling light-headed, the influencer said she actually felt “content” because she was “doing something right” with her diet. Earle began to tear up when describing the first time someone noticed her disorder. The influencer recalled a time when her mother had asked if she’d thrown up after dinner, causing her to lie about her ED. “I just lied straight to her face,” she admitted. “And I think that was the first time anyone had ever realized or asked me what was happening, and I started to then feel guilty about that.” (Topic begins at 8:25) Luckily, Earle says that she began to recover from her disorder after getting into college, crediting her friend group for helping her realize how unhealthy her eating habits were. Overall, Earle shared her experience to help others struggling from eating disorders like she did, saying she’s “so grateful” for her friends who aided in her recovery.

Alix Earle “stranded” in Italy after learning scam hotel doesn’t exist – Dexerto
Alix Earle “stranded” in Italy after learning scam hotel doesn’t exist TikTok: alixearleTikTok’s resident ‘it girl’ Alix Earle was left “stranded” in Italy after she was scammed out of her accommodations, which didn’t actually exist in the first place. If you’ve been on the internet for any amount of time lately, you’ve probably heard the name Alix Earle in passing at some point. Earle is a massive star on TikTok, where she boasts over 5.3 million followers and has over 386 million likes. That’s not even taking into account her prolific Instagram profile, which currently has over 3 million followers. Although she’s garnered a dedicated fanbase of viewers who admire her down-to-earth personality and openness about beauty standards, Earle first went viral back in December 2022 after her highly-publicized breakup with baseball player Tyler Wade became the net’s hot goss. Alix Earle stranded in Europe after hotel turns out to be a scam Now, she’s going viral for a different reason. She and a group of ten girlfriends took a three-week vacay in Europe, during which they were slated to stay at a villa in Positano, Italy. Unfortunately, their booking didn’t work out as planned. After arriving in the village, it turned out that the villa they’d booked was a complete scam, and it didn’t actually exist in the first place, so all that money they spent on their reservation was totally gone. “We’re stranded in Italy,” Earle said in a TikTok video that’s gone viral. “The house we were supposed to stay at doesn’t exist. Our car service canceled. It’s midnight. We literally don’t know where to go.” “Last night was a little hectic,” she said in a follow-up video. “I thought we were being kidnapped. I was so scared the whole time.” Luckily, Earle and co. weren’t without accommodations for long. Even AirBnB got in on the drama, writing in a comment, “Babes we got you. Our people are calling you now.” The girls managed to book a small hotel for themselves for the night and still don’t know where they’ll be staying for the remainder of their trip — but it looks like their European stay is just turning out to be a bit more adventurous than they’d initially planned for. This is just the latest travel drama that’s taken over TikTok after a woman “upgraded” her airplane seats by using plastic wrap to seal herself off from the rest of her fellow passengers.

American influencer Alix Earle rose to fame through TikTok, becoming the popular social media platform’s new “it” girl with currently 6.3 million followers. Yet, fame has come with its own set of difficulties, as Earle discussed friendship break-ups and revealed some of the worst ones she has experienced during Thursday’s episode of her Hot Mess podcast. Included in the mix was an instance where explicit photos of Earle were shared without consent and another where her “personal secrets” were told to strangers. “Last winter… I was going through a breakup and you know, she knew all the details of everything and I had basically girls DM me saying that she was at a bar saying, ‘Oh I’m Alix Earle’s best friend,’ and was telling them personal secrets about my breakup” Earle said, describing an instance in which her private life had been publicly shared by a friend. “This person was not my best friend, just someone I was hanging out with a lot and would talk to a lot,” she explained. In another story featuring a different friend, Earle shared how explicit photos of her were sent without consent. “My friend and I came back from going out. We were drinking, whatever, I’m laying on my bed naked… booty cheeks are out and this person decides to take a picture of me laying on the bed,” Earle said. “This person then texts this picture to NFL man, my boyfriend now but at the time was not my boyfriend — I was kind of just like hanging out with him.” “Balling [her] eyes out,” Earle called Braxton Berrios to explain the situation. She said, “That has to go down as the craziest most disrespectful thing anyone has ever done to me I think.” Sharing how her friendships have changed since rising to fame, Earle said, “I got a following on social media and you know, some people care about that a lot and tried to slither their way back into my life. People who told me they didn’t like me, they didn’t want to be my friend six months prior.” “Taking a picture of you naked and texting it to anyone is so crazy!” one viewer wrote. Another advised, “You don’t need the drama of bad friends in life. Life is too short to have sh***y friends.”

The influencer was spotted locking lips with the high schooler while in the Hamptons on July 16, and the pair allegedly left together later that night. Now Alix has responded, claiming she wasn’t aware of Sebastian’s age at the time, but the internet is still not happy. A screenshot shared on Instagram by ‘teatoktalk’ shows the influencer allegedly responding to a comment on her TikTok which simply said, “SEVENTEEN??????????” “Just as shocked as you are,” Alix reportedly replied, insinuating she was unaware that Sebastian was still a minor. Despite using James Charles’ claim of ignorance, many remained adamant that the influencer should know better and “needs to be held accountable.” “Nah. It’s your responsibility as the adult to make sure,” one person commented. “You are older which means you were in a position of power. You are at fault. You are a creep.” Another said, “She was hanging around him and his family prior to all this and you mean to tell me she didn’t do a social media check on the guy?” Alix’s TikTok has also been flooded with “17” comments, referencing Sebastian’s age at the time of the incident. In a video in which Alix discusses an expensive $26 smoothie, one viewer said, “You sure it’s not 17?” For all the latest entertainment news, be sure to check out our page here.

Alix Earle goes viral after receiving a strange gift from her NFL boyfriend TIKTOK: alixearleAlix Earle was left confused after her boyfriend randomly handed her $400 cash in a viral TikTok video. The popular influencer took to TikTok to show off the wad of cash that her boyfriend, Miami Dolphins player Braxton Berrios, gave her out of nowhere. “I’m sitting here with my heating pad on and my man just handed me $400,” Alix said while laying in bed, before panning the camera to show the NFL star standing next to her. “What did I do to deserve this?” she asked him in a fake southern accent. “Are you country now?” Braxton quipped. “What’d I do? What is this for?” the TikToker further questioned her boyfriend, who only laughed in response. Alix then answered the question herself, jokingly concluding that the gift was “for being a great girlfriend, thank you.” The 20-second clip has since gone viral with almost 8 million views and 1.2 million likes. TikTok users had mixed reactions to Braxton’s kind gesture, with many people saying they wish they had a boyfriend like him. “Where do I find one like this,” one person wrote. “Tips tricks and advice? Let the girlies know,” another said. “Drop that Amazon link for a copy of him pls,” a third added. Some viewers, however, weren’t really having it. “I️ can barely even pay my bills working two jobs 60 plus hours a week lol. That’s my entire bank account basically,” one user commented. “$400 and I could keep my heat and electric on for another month, that would be great,” another shared. “Ummm be grateful,” someone else said. The couple have been spending time together since March 2023, leading fans to accuse Alix of being the “mistress” in Braxton’s former relationship with Sophia Culpo.

Alix Earle explains why she looked so annoyed with John Summit – Dexerto
Alix Earle explains why she looked so annoyed with John Summit TikTok: alixearle, espnTikTok star Alix Earle has finally explained the reason why she looked so annoyed with DJ John Summit when she was ‘sniped’ by ESPN in a viral video. Alix Earle is a popular influencer best known for her viral “get ready with me” videos. Boasting over 5 million followers on TikTok and 3 million on Instagram, it’s safe to say that Earle is a bonafide internet celebrity. Earle was recently caught attending a recent Inter Miami CF game, where she was spotted alongside popular DJ John Summit. However, their conversation didn’t exactly seem thrilling. A video showing the two having a one-sided conversation was recorded and posted to the official ESPN TikTok account, where Earle didn’t seem to be interested whatsoever in what Summit had to say. The video quickly went viral, with commenters both confused as to why the clip was posted on ESPN’s TikTok account in the first place and thoroughly amused at Earle’s reaction to Summit’s apparent lack of rizz. Alix Earle explains her reaction to John Summit in viral ESPN TikTok Luckily, Earle has explained that she wasn’t actually annoyed with him. In a recent ‘get ready with me’ video, the influencer clarified that she simply has a bad case of RBF: Resting B*tch Face. “ESPN sniped me yesterday,” she joked. “I’ve known that I have a resting b*tch face, but when I saw this clip, I was like, ‘Oh my god. I am scared of myself.’” Alix also explained that there was a celebrity in front of them, causing both herself and Summit to act a bit awkwardly due to the presence of a famous person in their midst. “It looks like I rolled my eyes and I’m like, looking away,” she continued. “There were a ton of cameras around us, because there was someone super famous in front of us. And we’re awkwardly standing there like, ‘Okay, let’s just act chill back here.’” “So guys, no, I don’t hate John Summit. I love him. We’re huge fans [of each other].” For Summit’s part, he seems pretty embarrassed about the ordeal, saying in a viral tweet: “I’m never going out in public again lmao.” Luckily, there’s no bad blood between these two — but the viral clip of their conversation certainly gave the internet a good laugh.

Alix Earle is a prominent influencer, boasting 6 million followers on TikTok and 3 million on Instagram. Although she’s best known for her humorous storytime videos and ‘get ready with me’ clips, Earle caught the internet’s attention for a totally different reason in October 2023 during an episode of her podcast, ‘Hot Mess with Alix Earle.’ During the podcast, Earle opened up about her “toxic” eating disorder, which she says started in high school.

Alissa Violet wins Fortnite game on Tfue’s account after Clout Gang ambush his stream – Dexerto
Alissa Violet wins Fortnite game on Tfue’s account after Clout Gang ambush his stream Top Fortnite player and streamer Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney had his stream taken over by members of the Clout Gang on November 16, and Alissa Violet proved she could take care of a Fortnite win. Tfue, a professional player for FaZe Clan, moved out to Los Angeles to join the other members of the FaZe organization, which shares a mansion with the Clout Gang (called the ‘Clout House’). His new setup sees him collaborating with other members of the organization frequently, as his own personal brand grows as not only a top Fortnite player, but also a YouTube and streamer. But, on November 16, members of the Clout Gang and FaZe decided to play a prank on Tfue, invading his room with Halloween masks – just as he was in a top three situation in Fortnite. Tfue quickly realized who it was, so the prank maybe didn’t go exactly to plan, but he then invited YouTuber Alissa Violet to complete his Fortnite game for him. With only one player left, Tfue set up the game with the final opponent in sight, prepared for Alissa to simply take them out. Although Violet isn’t known for her Fortnite credentials, she looked composed as she took out the last player to win the game – although unfortunately none of it was captured on stream as Tfue had went full screen with his camera. Alissa tried another game after, but was eliminated immediately by an opponent with a pickaxe, and that was her Fortnite career over as quickly as it began. Warning: The below clip is loud. Tfue realized his mistake with camera soon after and switched to the gameplay view, proving that Alissa had in fact won the game – using a Mounted Turret which he must have set up for her to use. Soon after the Clout Gang let Tfue get on with his stream and return to practice, but not before some quality YouTube content had been created – and he made sure to show the game replay of Alissa winning.

Alissa Violet trolls Chantel Jeffries with gross Nutella TikTok prank Alissa Violet, Chantel Jeffries – YouTubeAlissa Violet is more than a top YouTuber and model; she’s also a huge face on TikTok, where she unveiled a hilarious prank against popular DJ and fellow model Chantel Jeffries. Violet boasts a massive social media presence, amassing a whopping 9.3 million followers on Instagram and 3.8 million subscribers on YouTube. Considering her recent walk in Milan Fashion Week, it comes as little surprise that the social media star has equally famous friends, including DJ, actress, and model Chantel Jeffries. In fact, Jeffries starred in one of Violet’s recent TikTok videos — a short-form video platform that rivals deceased application Vine for its fast-paced content. Alissa’s 2.3 million TikTok followers were surprised to see a humorous prank from Violet, who laughingly held up a jar of Nutella in her bathroom for the camera. From there, it’s pretty easy to guess what’s about to happen: such pranks are common worldwide, with pranksters dipping their hands into chocolate spreads or dips meant to imitate human feces, leading to a hilarious reaction from their unwitting victims. Unfortunately for Jeffries, she ended up being the butt of this good-natured practical joke, with Violet sitting on the toilet lid and asking her DJ bestie to bring up some toilet paper, claiming she’d run out. Rising from the seat to grab the roll, Violet thanked Jeffries, making sure to transfer some of the Nutella from her hand to her friend’s arm in the process. “Alissa, what the f**k?” Jeffries yelled, running out of the bathroom in disgust while Violet howled with laughter after successfully pulling off her prank. Keeping her caption for the video in mind, it looks like this is just the start of an upcoming “prank war” between the two models, with more shenanigans potentially to come. This comedic video follows Violet’s catwalk at Milan Fashion Week 2020, where she modeled clothing from German designer Philipp Plein. Her TikTok prank just goes to show that even top models can have a little fun!

However, the social celeb is known for more than her videos — leaving her hometown in Ohio, Violet was prompted to purchase a one-way to Los Angeles, where she was offered multiple contracts from modeling agencies that kickstarted her career. Since then, she’s been a regular in the modeling industry, but her latest gig is dropping jaws across the net. Violet announced her work with German fashion designer Philipp Plein in a series of Instagram posts on February 24, in what she called a “f*cking sick” show for Milan Fashion Week 2020. https://www.instagram.com/p/B87T_5PBd_5/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link As seen in her photos of the event, the model poses wearing a one-sleeved, sequin tunic, boasting a unique green hairdo and fringed boots to match. That wasn’t her only look for the evening, either: Violet also walked in some of Plein’s controversial tributes to late sports star Kobe Bryant, which included a line of sequined Lakers jerseys with Kobe’s number “24” and the name “Plein” emblazoned on the front. https://www.instagram.com/p/B87IIC-hOCD/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Her walk in Milan Fashion Week marks yet another YouTuber breaking ground into the mainstream media, alongside the likes of fellow content creator Erika Costell, who notably modeled for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2018. It seems as though Violet’s career is on the up and up, following her highly-publicized split with FaZe co-founder Ricky Banks last year over alleged infidelity; while the two have apparently made their peace with each other, it doesn’t look like she’s letting any of the drama get her down. Violet is walking the runway with her head held high, and there’s no telling where her storied career will take her next.

According to Violet, it was Logan who spilled the beans – in the most on-brand manner possible. “I’m a savage, I’m a Maverick,” Violet said, quoting Paul’s response to her concerns about news of their relationship getting out. However, Paul is denying these allegations, as claimed by YouTuber True Geordie during one of his recent podcasts.

In a screenshot of their text conversation, Violet told KEEMSTAR that Paul had merely been trying to “hang.” Alissa had told him to “f**k off.” Texted Alissa she said … https://t.co/xzuUwZ8xyR pic.twitter.com/z50D9Qj7mO — KEEM 🍿 (@KEEMSTAR) December 29, 2020 It’s just as well; after parting ways in 2016, serious drama went down between the two influencers, with Violet claiming she’d suffered “mental abuse” during her relationship with Paul and even claimed that their romance hadn’t even been real, in the first place. According to Violet, the “Jalissa” pairing was just a front — although that didn’t stop her from being hurt when she claimed Paul would purportedly bring other women to his house to “hook up with in front of me.” It looks like things are as cold as ever between these two YouTubers, in spite of Paul’s oddly-timed Instagram post. Right now, it seems like he is completely single, after parting ways with his most recent ex-girlfriend prior to his bout with Nate Robinson. For now, it seems like Paul is fully focused on his career in fighting — and Violet is decidedly taking no part in the chaos.

Alissa Violet finally breaks silence on FaZe Banks split – Dexerto
Alissa Violet finally breaks silence on FaZe Banks split Instagram: BanksYouTuber and model Alissa Violet has spoken out for the first time following her recent breakup with FaZe Clan co-owner Ricky ‘Banks‘ Banks. Earlier in July, Banks took to social media to announce that he and longtime girlfriend Alissa Banks had split up, ending their two-year relationship. In his tweet, he specified that they had decided to spend time “time apart” and that it was a team decision. But up to this point, we had not heard anything from Alissa – until today. To clarify too, this wasn’t one sided by any means. Just like everything else we’ve ever done, it was a team decision. Alissa is the most amazing soul I’ve ever come in contact with. She deserves love and support. She’ll continue to have mine forever. — FaZe Banks (@Banks) July 6, 2019 Alissa breaks her silence The female YouTuber tweeted out today, that she was “still very hurt” over how the break up went down, and was coping with it in her own way. While she didn’t get into what was the cause for their breakup, she reminded everyone that no one really knows what happened except them. And echoed a similar statement as FaZe Banks made, in that she would always love and care about him. everyone handles breakups differently. You guys don’t know what happened behind closed doors and I’m doing the best I can to handle everything. I’m still very hurt and upset how this happened. I will always love and care for Ricky. — Alissa Violet (@AlissaViolet) July 17, 2019 Back in June, the FaZe Clan co-owner was on the ‘No Jumper’ podcast, where he admitted that he had slept with Tana Mongeau in the past. Soon after, his girlfriend unfollowed him on social media. While many speculated that the Tana Mongeau revelation was the cause of the fight, both of them were quick to assure everyone that it was a coincidence, and the unrelated argument was just bad timing Just days after Banks was on the podcast, he announced that the pair had broken up, but that they had actually decided to spend time apart a month before. Both Banks and Alissa have been vague on the details, with the FaZe clan co-owner saying it was a team decision, and her later comments focusing more on how upset she was over “how it happened”. The couple in happier times. Alissa is right in that no one really knows what happened behind closed doors, so speculation is just that – speculation. But given the string of hardships Banks has been going through recently, fans of the FaZe man and of Alissa will be hoping things get better soon for both of them.

Alissa Violet confirms fight with FaZe Banks following Tana Mongeau scandal – Dexerto
Alissa Violet confirms fight with FaZe Banks following Tana Mongeau scandal Alissa Violet, Tana Mongeau, FaZe Banks – InstagramWhile YouTubers Tana Mongeau and Jake Paul are allegedly gearing up for a July wedding, FaZe co-owner Ricky Banks admitted some sensitive details about his relationship with Mongeau – which occurred right in the middle of a fight with his current girlfriend, Alissa Violet. FaZe Banks appeared in an episode of Adam22’s ‘No Jumper’ podcast on June 25, where he admitted that he’d had a physical relationship with Mongeau in the past – a matter he’d kept secret for over three years. “Tana’s the homie,” Banks reluctantly said. “Honestly, I’m gonna be real with you, I don’t remember. Yeah. Fuck, dude. …Wait – did I actually admit to this? Did that just happen?” Shortly after the podcast went live, Alissa unfollowed Banks on social media – leading some fans to believe that the move was made out of anger and jealousy about Banks’ past involvement with Mongeau. However, this turned out to be mere speculation, as Banks clarified the matter in a Tweet on June 26, explaining that their fight had nothing to do with the podcast. Things got tense between couple Alissa Violet and FaZe Banks, after Banks admitted to sleeping with Tana Mongeau three years ago.600https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt9zvGqhb0O/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link “Wow this really hot girl just followed me,” he wrote. “Lmaooo you guys are insane. Terrible timing for a fight. Guys, fights happen. This had 0 to do with the podcast or Tana. You guys are crazy lol.” Alissa appeared to back up his statement, agreeing that their spat had nothing to do with Tana and claiming that she had even been aware of their relationship before she’d started dating Banks two years ago. Wow this really hot girl just followed me :joyful::joyful: Lmaooo you guys are insane. Terrible timing for a fight. Guys fights happen. This had 0 to do with the podcast or Tana. You guys are crazy lol pic.twitter.com/MinkPqNr9m — FaZe Banks (@Banks) June 26, 2019 “I love Tana and I knew about everything when we first started dating two years ago,” she explained. “Literally terrible timing.” While the YouTubers have yet to open up about the exact cause for their fight, Banks’ admission could make his recently repaired relationship with Jake Paul a bit awkward, as the two shared a highly public rivalry – one that involved Violet, who is also Paul’s ex-girlfriend. I love tana and I knew about everything when we first started dating two years ago. Literally terrible timing — Alissa Violet (@AlissaViolet) June 26, 2019 Although the two have finally squashed their differences, Mongeau’s sudden engagement is turning heads across the internet, with many doubting that their union is actually legitimate. Even Paul’s own brother, Logan, is in the dark, with both fans and family forced to wait until the new date of their wedding on July 28.

Alissa Violet confirms allegations of mental abuse against Jake Paul, claims they were never really dating – Dexerto
Alissa Violet confirms allegations of mental abuse against Jake Paul, claims they were never really dating YouTuber and model Alissa Violet confirmed allegations of emotional and mental abuse from social media star Jake Paul in the latest episode of Shane Dawson’s docuseries – and even admitted that their relationship had never been real in the first place. “We never officially dated,” she said to Dawson during an interview in the Clout house. “Ever. ‘Jalissa’ was fake.” She revealed that Paul had originally only wanted a ‘YouTube girlfriend,’ using her image in his thumbnails after seeing that they gained more views. She likewise stated that he never officially confirmed their relationship status, and that she felt she was constantly ‘chasing’ him. Additionally, Violet confirmed that Paul had dragged her down a flight of stairs after a fight, during which he broke her new phone. However, she made sure to clarify that Paul wasn’t a physical abuser – rather, she claimed that he was mentally and emotionally abusive, instead. Read More: FaZe Banks responds to assault allegations following Shane Dawson’s docuseries over Jake Paul – “Mentally and emotionally, it’s 100%,” she stated. “… I can’t even remember a conversation where it was like, me walking away feeling good about myself.” Violet also took issue with Paul’s fans slutshaming her after her expulsion from Team 10. She likewise held that she had never truly ‘cheated’ on Jake with his brother, Logan Paul, as the two were never officially dating in the first place. She claimed that she hooked up with Paul out of frustration at being left out of a trip with Team 10, which Jake barred her from participating in because he allegedly wanted to sleep with another woman. “I’m still disgusted by it, because it’s not who I am,” she said of the situation. The final episode of Dawson’s series will air on Thursday, October 18, and feature an in-depth interview with Jake Paul.

Alissa Violet accuses FaZe Banks of cheating and destructive behavior – Dexerto
Alissa Violet accuses FaZe Banks of cheating and destructive behavior American model and actress, Alissa Violet, has posted a series of Tweets suggesting that FaZe Clan’s Ricky ‘Banks’ Banks cheated on her during their relationship. FaZe star, Ricky Banks, revealed that he had split from long-term girlfriend Alissa Violet on July 6, claiming that they had been apart for “about a month.” In the aftermath of the breakup, Violet broke the silence on July 17 with a Tweet to her fans, stating: “You guys don’t know what happened behind closed doors and I’m doing the best I can to handle everything. I’m still very hurt and upset how this happened. I will always love and care for Ricky.” Although the dust had seemingly settled following the pair’s split, the model responded to a thread of Tweets on December 2, with the leading post captioned: “How did you find out you were being cheated on?” In a now-deleted Tweet, Violet stated: “I was asleep upstairs with our dogs and he wasn’t next to me, so I checked our guest house and caught him naked in bed with a random girl.” The actress’ reply appeared to be the catalyst for a Tweet from Banks, which stated: “I love you” and (on the surface) seemed to be related to Alissa. Violet was quick to respond, with the first Tweet containing a screenshot of the pair’s iMessage conversation. In the text, she asked: “Did you ‘love me’ when you were hooking up with a random whore in our home?” Banks subsequently responded with: “Dude WTF is this?” and a further message, stating “I always kept my promises.” Violet replied in the conversation, prefacing each message with “did you ‘love me’…” and an allegation. Based on the iMessage screenshot, Violet claims that Banks Snapchatted a girl in Vegas to “f**k” him, alongside ‘hooking up’ with a girl while Violet was in Orlando for her cousin’s wedding. Each subsequent Tweet was again prefaced with “did you ‘love me’… and a following message, with the 23-year-old publicly claiming that the FaZe star had been unfaithful multiple times during their time together. In her string of Tweets, Violet also accused Banks of ‘breaking eight of her iPhones’ alongside “[smashing] in the back of Chantel’s window of her car…” This follows recent reports that the FaZe co-owner allegedly caused $30,000 worth of damages after trashing a luxury Las Vegas hotel room back in October. At the time of writing, Banks’ only response was in retaliation to a comment made by Violet about how taking care of the pair’s dogs was “too much” for him. He stated: “I couldn’t take care of them? I want them to have a good life?” before questioning why the pair were toing and froing online, for the world to see. Currently, the above are all unproven accusations made by Alissa Violet. Without an official statement or response from Banks, it is unclear whether her claims hold any substance.

Alisha12287 responds after Twitch ban over alleged kitten mill – Dexerto
Alisha12287 responds after Twitch ban over alleged kitten mill YouTube: Alisha12287 / Pexels: Buenosia CarolStreamer ‘Alisha12287’ has finally spoken out after being banned from Twitch — a punishment that she claims was brought about by her allegations against another channel on being a purported kitten mill. [jwplayer Y7PB7YwV] On September 2, Alisha called out Twitch in a pointed tweet, where she claimed that a certain channel on the site was being investigated by the USDA on alleged activity of being a purported kitten mill. Kitten mills are much as the name suggests: Breeding locations where purebred cats are kept in cramped, often filthy living conditions, who largely “go without medical attention and live in their own waste,” as defined by Petful.com. Alisha made similar claims during her own Twitch stream, which was later shared to popular subreddit ‘livestreamfails,’ garnering mass attention over the seemingly terrible situation happening on Twitch. hey @Twitch did you know that https://t.co/rR9Ta574lJ has an open case by the USDA investigating them for puppy/ kitten mill activity? Have you seen the YELP REVIEWS about the kittens dying in the arms of their new family after 14 days? — twitch.tv/Alisha (@Alisha12287) September 2, 2020 In spite of her good intentions, it wasn’t long until she was met with a ban from the platform and her popular clip speaking out on the situation removed, which fellow streamer Destiny mentioned during a stream of his own, claiming that the ban was brought about on behalf to the mill, itself. Now, Alisha has finally addressed the situation, stating that Twitch has not yet told her the specific reason for her ban. She did, however, reveal that the length of her suspension is for fourteen days, which Twitch allegedly stated was due to general “harassment.” However, Alisha did mention that she was emailed by a “specific business,” who “boasted” about the fact that they were the reason for her ban and had used an attorney to “shut her up.” “I understand Twitch’s quick decision on a business perspective to ban me for 14 days,” she said of the situation. “I also understood at the time… that there could possibly be backlash against me. This did not stop me, however, from sharing something I felt was extremely important, and I knew the risks that were involved.” As she explained that much of the claims against the cattery are available online, a little digging into the USDA investigation turns up an official records request, which she had mentioned in her September tweet. Other resources have also been made available online, such as an allegedly forged veterinary certification. Also alleging that she had been approached by the kitten mill on multiple occasions, Alisha claimed that she has “zero obligation to respond to them,” stating: “I am not afraid of them, and I will stand up for what I believe is right.” “I want justice for the actions and the suffering of said business that has impacted families and lives of innocent animals,” she added. Alisha will be unbanned on October 23, around noon EST (9 AM PST), during which she hopes to host a charity stream for an as-yet undetermined animal shelter.

Alinity’s Social Media Manager Stalks Anyone Who Harrases Her On Social Media – Dexerto
Alinity’s Social Media Manager Stalks Anyone Who Harrases Her On Social Media Twitch streamer Alinity Divine recently revealed that her social media manager may be stalking people who harass her via social media. In a clip cut from one of her recent broadcasts, Alinity addressed her viewers, and warned them that her social media manager keeps record of those who send the streamer hate. “He has a backlog of pictures of people who have said mean things to me. He also has a backlog of nudes. So if you like to tweet stuff that’s like mean or negative, or on Instagram or YouTube, he goes and stalks their pictures and he’s got them up somewhere.” She also admitted that the same social media manager keeps copies of any nudes that are sent to her, and may be actually posting them online, stating; “It’s very likely that my social media manager is gonna catch the nudes, and add them to this backlog of nudes he has that he is posting in some places. So I really suggest you don’t do this. “ Alinity is no stranger to controversy. In early 2018, she became embroiled in a public feud with Felix ‘PewDiePie’ Kjellberg. After Kjellberg labeled Divine a “thot” in a video in which he used a clip of her, she responded by filing a copyright claim against the YouTube star, sparking a conflict between the two. While there is a chance that Alinity said this in an attempt to stop people from sending her hate (and inappropriate pictures), it seems it might be a good idea to keep any nasty messages and nudes to yourself!

Alinity’s $160k Aston Martin luxury car hit while parked outside new home – Dexerto
Alinity’s $160k Aston Martin luxury car hit while parked outside new home Twitch: AlinityAlinity has revealed her newly purchased $160k Aston Martin luxury car was hit while parked out front of her new house. Over the last few years, Alinity has become one of the most popular female streamers on Twitch, with over 1.5 million followers on her channel. She’s an OnlyFans content creator as well, making it known in the past that she makes significantly more money on OF than on Twitch. Alinity recently used that money to buy a new Aston Martin luxury car and a house but revealed during a recent stream that somebody hit her car while parked outside the new house. Alinity reveals $160k Aston Martin was hit while parked During a stream on May 2, 2023, Alinity shared what happened with her new-to-her car purchase as she was moving into her new house. Alinity said she was looking out the window when, all of a sudden, she heard sirens outside. “I run outside, and as I run outside onto the street, everybody is out there looking at something. Then I see a car in the middle of the road. A Mercedes, and the wheel came off,” she said. “Then I turn, and I look at my Aston Martin as I see that my Aston Martin has just been hit. I start[ed] screaming and crying.” The Twitch star went on to explain that the other driver’s insurance is taking responsibility for her Aston Martin, although she has yet to hear anything about them fixing her car. Alinity isn’t the first streamer to have an issue with their car recently, either. Back in January, Myth called for help after his car was stolen. On March 1, Ludwig’s “dream car” was stolen out of his warehouse. Last year, Mizkif’s Audi R8 was wrecked as well, amassing over $100k in damages in the process.

Alinity under investigation by animal protection services for throwing her cat – Dexerto
Alinity under investigation by animal protection services for throwing her cat Alinity/InstagramTwitch streamer Alinity Divine is under investigation by the Saskatoon Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) after a couple of controversial clips involving her cats went viral. The most recent is from a July 18 APEX Legends stream when the gamer was irritated by her cat crawling on her desk. Alinity appeared to call the cat by its name, Milo, and pick it up before tossing it over her shoulder. Another clip, this one from over a year ago, shows the streamer appearing to feed the same cat vodka via a kiss. Now, the Saskatoon SPCA says it is investigating the streamer’s actions and a formal complaint has been filed. A formal cruelty complaint regarding this matter has been filed with our Animal Protection department and is currently under investigation. If you have any further details, you can assist our Officers & add to the file be reporting here: https://t.co/72OVF5Puii. Thank you! #yxe — Saskatoon SPCA (@SaskatoonSPCA) July 19, 2019 “A formal cruelty complaint regarding this matter has been filed with our Animal Protection department and is currently under investigation,” the SPCA replied after being tagged in a Twitter thread created by journalist Ian Miles Cheong. In the same thread, comedian and actor Ricky Gervais chimed in with “So many stupid people in the world.” Alinity’s actions also drew the ire of PETA who tweeted to Twitch Support asking them to, “Take a stand for cats & please remove Alinity from @Twitch immediately. She is using the platform to post animal abuse, which sends a dangerous message to anyone watching her videos. Cats are not props to abuse for more views.” Meanwhile, the streamer addressed the videos as well as the investigation on Twitter.

I shouldnt have gotten frustrated with Milo, but I dropped him on the floor behind my chair. I’m not that strong 😛 The Vodka thing was well over a year ago but it was also a stupid thing to do,” Divine wrote. “I also understand the desire to report me to pet authorities and encourage anyone to do so if they feel pets are being mistreated, by anyone, anywhere. My animals are well loved, and live in a warm and caring home, and I will comply with any authority that seeks to validate this.” Despite being reported, she believes those who did had the best of intentions and isn’t angry with them. “I think a lot of people are doing this because they believe they are doing the right thing, so no salt. I dont pretend to be perfect, and I will always try to do better, and improve myself.” Let us know on Twitter @Dexerto what you think about this situation.

Alinity trolls salty Apex Legends player after beating them while drunk – Dexerto
Alinity trolls salty Apex Legends player after beating them while drunk Alinity, TwitchTwitch streamer Alinity Divine was in the middle of an Apex Legends broadcast when her friend brought a salty tweet from a fellow player to her attention — and her response was a surprising own. Aside from her cat-tossing controversy, Alinity is known for being a massive Apex Legends enthusiast, often broadcasting the popular battle royale game on her channel. With her considerable play time in mind, it comes as little surprise that the streamer has some pretty fine-honed FPS skills, which she unleashed on an unfortunate opponent during a March broadcast. In a close 1v1 gunfight, Alinity managed to get the jump on her opponent and even ended up taking the game as Wraith. While she seemed fairly focused, it turns out that the internet star was actually quite inebriated, as revealed a short time later. A few moments after her victory, a friend over voice chat told her that he came across a Tweet from the player she’d just defeated, who wrote, “I really just died to Alinity. I’m pissed.” https://twitter.com/OnlyKamar/status/1238639835851755530?s=20 Needless to say, the player’s saltiness prompted a good-natured laugh from the streamer, who asked her friend to tell her opponent one vital piece of information. “You should tell him I’ve had like, six shots,” she chuckled. “I don’t think he wants to hear that,” her friend admitted. https://twitter.com/AlinityTwitch/status/1238843852603064321?s=20 That wasn’t the end of her opponent’s humorous take on the situation, either: their replies to the matter reveal that they took the loss in stride, and were able to find the humor in losing to such a well-known streamer. “Man listen. I’m still new to m&k and I had two short range guns,” they explained. https://twitter.com/OnlyKamar/status/1238652339965366272?s=20 “Man I can’t even look at myself,” they jokingly continued. “Changing my load out forever now.” https://twitter.com/OnlyKamar/status/1238644613545693184?s=20 This humorous moment follows yet another viral interaction from Alinity a week prior, whose pet cat appeared to get its “revenge” on the streamer with a vicious bite on camera (after she received mass backlash for tossing her cat ‘Milo’ over her head during an Apex stream in 2019). Thankfully, this broadcast brought a hilarious moment to light — one that Alinity’s opponent isn’t likely to forget.

Alinity thinks new Twitch category could end infamous ‘hot tub meta’ – Dexerto
Alinity thinks new Twitch category could end infamous ‘hot tub meta’ Twitch / AlinityPopular Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon has shared her thoughts on Twitch’s implementation of a ‘hot tub’ category, suggesting it could even end the meta on the streaming platform. We’ve seen trends come and go over the years on Twitch, but the recent ‘hot tub meta’ has to be up there with the most controversial. Content creators simply stream from a hot tub – often indoors, primarily because it allows them to wear a swimsuit in the context. The trend was amassing thousands of viewers on Twitch, but also criticism from some who said it was simply being used to exploit Twitch’s contextual exceptions to their sexually suggestive content policies. On May 21, nearly two months after hot tub streams really took off, Twitch confirmed the addition of a new ‘pools, hot tubs and beaches’ category, meaning hot tub streamers will no longer dominate the ‘Just Chatting’ section of the platform. Alinity supports new category The news largely received positive feedback from the community. Alinity, streaming on May 21, joined those praises and described it as a “smart” thing for Twitch to do. However, she also suggested that it could end the meta entirely. “That is actually really good. That’s actually a really good thing you guys. It’s very smart of them [Twitch] to do that,” she said. “Do you guys want the opinion of a person that’s been on Twitch for 8 years? “Because I can give you my personal opinion on it: it’s gonna stop the meta. The reason why people do it is because of browser placement. Browser placement on a channel with 25,000 viewers is not high enough for it to be worth streaming on. It’s a good thing.” Topic occurs 3:15:00 to 3:18:30 Alinity is essentially arguing that the category and its placement on the Twitch home page will affect the popularity of the streams inside it, with Just Chatting and other titles almost certain to feature more obviously. Whether it does affect the popularity of hot tub streams remains to be seen, but they’re now available all in one place on the streaming platform.

Alinity teases new deal to stream on Kick after Twitch ban for twerking – Dexerto
Alinity teases new deal to stream on Kick after Twitch ban for twerking Twitch/AlinityAlinity could be the next Twitch star to join Kick after being banned for twerking during a live broadcast. Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon was hit with a three-day ban back on May 30 after she started twerking and was subsequently suspended for “sexual content.” Furious with the ban, the Colombian-Canadian immediately began to solicit offers from rival platforms by remarking how she was thinking of “taking business somewhere else.” After websites such as Rumble, Kick, and Slushy swooped in, it seems like she’s now in touch with one of them and could very well be leaving Twitch if the offer is sweet enough. Alinity hints at negotiations with Kick for streaming offer During a June 6 broadcast, a viewer asked Mogollon if she would be moving to Kick and the streamer was forced to pause and think about how she was going to answer. Smirking, she teased: “I may or may not be in the process of getting a deal with Kick.” However, she was quick to add that if she did get an offer to broadcast on the rival platform, it would be dual streaming, meaning that she would be on both sites. This news comes as many streamers have inked deals to take their content to rival platforms with some even securing exclusive shows. Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed, for instance, have a special show on Rumble while BruceDropEmOff made the jump to Kick after dealing with numerous Twitch suspensions. We’ll have to see what happens with Alinity, but there’s certainly no shortage of top streaming talent ready to make moves, especially if the price is right.

Alinity stunned by fan’s PC that is completely dedicated to her – Dexerto
Alinity stunned by fan’s PC that is completely dedicated to her Twitch: AlinityTwitch star Alinity was left stunned when she found that a fan had dedicated their PC to her as they have GIFs of her running throughout it. When it comes to supporting your favorite streamer, fans have a number of options to do so these days, beyond just being a regular remember of Twitch chat. Of course, you can stick your hand in your pocket and spend money to be a loyal subscriber, a regular donator, and even buy merch. The latter usually allows you to rep your favorite streamer outside too, showing the whole world just how big a fan you are. Though, sometimes, some fans go above and beyond, dedicating parts of their setup to their favorite streamer. And that’s what happened in the case of Alinity. Alinity sees fan PC dedicated to her and is stunned No, the fan in question doesn’t have posters or a custom mousepad of the Just Chatting star but, instead, has dedicated their PC to her. That’s right, where some people choose to have RGB displays, this fan instead has multiple gifs of the streamer playing on the front panel of their PC, as well as inside of it too. Alinity got to see a short clip of it and was left, well, speechless for a moment as she seemed pretty stunned by it, covering her face as the clip played on. “Where do I get this?” she asked as she finally commented on it. “That’s erm… that’s pretty cool!” The streamer did see the funny side of things a few moments later, calling the whole thing “funny” and then “hilarious” just before she cut off her stream for the night. The PC appears to be a one-off but, who knows, there might other, even more overly dedicated ones out there somewhere. This is the internet after all.

Alinity speechless after Rich Campbell’s response to emotional childhood story – Dexerto
Alinity speechless after Rich Campbell’s response to emotional childhood story Twitter/RichWCampbellTwitch star Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon was left stunned and speechless after Rich Campbell had an incredibly awkward response to her extremely emotional childhood story. Alinity’s past in Colombia has come up on a few occasions, such as when she explained to Mizkif how her mom tricked her into eating her pet chicken, but the scary stories don’t stop there. During an October 13 stream with Rich Campbell and Emiru, the former wanted the fellow streamers to share some real ghost stories in an effort to get to know them better. While no one actually had ghost stories to share, Alinity wanted to discuss her past in Colombia and a scary situation that really happened to her. Alinity shares emotional childhood story “I lived in the hills in Colombia and we lived really close to a military base,” Mogollon began. “And the guerilla would come and fight…” Her choice of words caught Emiru off-guard, however, who interrupted to ask if it was a wild gorilla, not understanding what Alinity meant. “Like a paramilitary group,” Alinity clarified, prompting both to acknowledge their silly mistake. “So, whenever there was gunfire going on, we had to wake up in the middle of the night and turn the lights on so they wouldn’t shoot in our direction.” Vintage @RichWCampbell laughing uncontrollably at @AlinityTwitch’s sad story pic.twitter.com/JwmoClSAji — Dexerto (@Dexerto) October 13, 2021 Despite Alinity’s story sounding downright horrifying, Campbell couldn’t keep it together and began laughing uncontrollably, probably still imagining an actual gorilla. “I’m sorry!” he exclaimed, still chuckling. Meanwhile, Alinity and Emiru just sat there awkwardly in silence. Even after Emiru patted Alinity on the back for sharing her story, Rich kept on laughing, eventually even wanting to leave the room to get away from the group. Finally, after the laughter died down, Campbell asked Alinity if she was mad at him, prompting her to just shake her head in silence. The awkward silence continued for what felt like an eternity before the two decided to just high-five. On the bright side, Alinity already finished her story before Campbell broke into hysterics, but it still made for one of the most ridiculously awkward streamer moments we’ve seen in a while.

Alinity slams Twitch over “big problem” with its ban policy – Dexerto
Alinity slams Twitch over “big problem” with its ban policy Alinity, TwitchTwitch streamer ‘Alinity Divine’ came under fire after suffering a wardrobe malfunction during a live broadcast, only receiving a 24-hour ban for the scandal — an issue that she’s hitting out at the platform for, after FaZe Adapt received a lengthier ban for showing the slip-up. Alinity became the target of social media backlash once again on April 24, after accidentally showing too much skin during a live stream when trying to stuff an object under her shirt. A clip from the broadcast quickly went viral, with critics across the net calling for Twitch to ban the streamer over a matter that has historically seen many other streamers receive lengthy suspensions, in comparison. Related – Why Everyone Wants Alinity Banned on Twitch Finally, Twitch suspended Alinity for a 24-hour period: a length that was called into question almost immediately, but especially after fellow content creator FaZe Adapt received a three-day suspension for an apparently similar offense, although he was unsure of the reason for his ban. “This is pretty cringe,” Adapt wrote of his suspension, which he proved with a screenshot of an email from Twitch, showing that he’d been banned for three days for “sexually suggestive content or activities.” Alinity herself even responded to the situation, quoting Adapt’s Tweet in a reply calling for Twitch to give greater clarity to streamers and viewers regarding bans. “THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM!” she wrote. “Twitch needs to come forward and EXPLAIN the reason that gets people suspended: With a timestamp of the stream and a description of EXACTLY what happened. PUBLICLY. They can create a forum specifically for it. There needs to be RECORDS of this.” THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM! @Twitch needs to come forward and EXPLAIN the reason that gets people suspended: With a timestamp of the stream and a description of EXACTLY what happened.

Alinity slams “entitled” trolls attacking Amouranth over abuse allegations – Dexerto
Alinity slams “entitled” trolls attacking Amouranth over abuse allegations Twitch: AlinityPopular Twitch streamer Alinity is defending Amouranth from “entitled” trolls who are lashing out at the influencer after she revealed she was in an abusive relationship. Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa shocked the internet after she live streamed a phone call with her husband on October 15, revealing shocking text messages from him and alleged damage to her home that she claimed had been caused by her partner, who she accused of abuse. Their phone conversation sparked concern from many netizens — but a large group of users also took issue with Amouranth, accusing the streamer of tricking them into donating under the guise of being single. However, during Amouranth’s tell-all stream, she specifically stated that keeping quiet about her marriage was her husband’s idea to avoid “ruining their business model.” On top of that, Amouranth also revealed she was married back in 2018. However, she didn’t bring it up publicly after that, likely due to the allegations mentioned in her stream. Alinity hits out at “entitled” trolls harassing Amouranth Since then, she has been hit with both support and vitriol on all sides… something that caught the attention of fellow streamer Alinity, who had previously phoned law enforcement to inquire about Amouranth’s safety in the hours after her October 15 broadcast. “The amount of people being like, ‘Oh my god, I can’t believe she didn’t tell me she was in a relationship! I got scammed!’ Like, bro. First of all — and this is like the stupid thing, because it was like three years ago that it came out that she had a husband,” she began. “Like, everyone kinda knew, right? Everyone knew. I assumed she had broken up with him, because when I went over there, I didn’t see the guy, so I was like, ‘Oh, they’re not together anymore.’ But I knew. Everyone knew.” “But then, like, bro, you’re not entitled to anything. You’re not. You’re not entitled to anything, chat. I’m not entitled to anything. You’re not entitled to anything. We’re not entitled to anything from anyone!” (Topic begins at 37:54) Alinity continued her tirade, putting the onus on fans for expecting something from a streamer after donating — something that fellow broadcaster Asmongold also spoke on in regards to the outrage surrounding Amouranth’s October 15 stream. Most recently, Amouranth has stated that she is safe and in control of her accounts, claiming that she is seeking legal counsel in the wake of her shocking broadcast.

Alinity shocked by bizarre fan encounter During her livestream on April 19, Alinity went into detail about how she and her friend were walking around together outside when she was recognized by someone living on the streets. “We’re walking around downtown and there’s this homeless girl in a blanket, she’s got headphones on. We’re waiting for the [crossing] to go white so we can cross the street and she goes ‘Alinity!’” As Alinity and her friend looked on in shock, the woman then said, “That’s you. You’re that wh*re on Twitch!” Although Alinity and her friend tried to shrug off the comment and proceeded to cross the street, the exchange, unsurprisingly, left her feeling a bit dumbfounded. Alinity went on to add, “Number one: that’s really cool that that girl knows who I am. Number two: who the f*ck does she think she is to come and call me a wh*re? Like, yeah, I’m a wh*re, but I’m a successful wh*re.” Read More: Tfue doesn’t care about “falling off” Twitch In the end, Alinity didn’t seem too phased by the encounter.

Alinity shares SPCA investigation findings following cat-tossing scandal Alinity, InstagramControversial Twitch streamer Alinity Divine stirred backlash across the net after angrily tossing her pet cat over her head during a live broadcast, prompting investigation from a local animal rights group – and the organization has finally revealed their findings. After Alinity’s clip went viral, the Saskatoon SPCA Tweeted that they had received a “formal cruelty complaint” regarding the incident, with even the likes of PETA begging Twitch to ban her from their platform. Despite the backlash, Alinity welcomed the SPCA to investigate the treatment of her animals, claiming that the org would visit her home in a “couple of days.” After four days of waiting, the Saskatoon SPCA finally published a statement regarding the scandal to Facebook, where they effectively cleared Alinity of all scrutiny, arguing that she had “no malicious intent” and even “expressed remorse” concerning her cat-tossing controversy. Read More: How to watch Logan Paul’s “Challenger Games” – “The investigation determined that there was no malicious intent in any of the reported incidents, and the owner expressed genuine remorse for her actions,” the post read. “…The actions depicted in each incident were not malicious in nature and the animals appeared healthy and well.” 600 Alinity herself later Tweeted out the post to her personal account, although she has yet to speak further on the incident as of publishing this piece, aside from notifying viewers that she will resume streaming on Saturday, July 27. “Lmao.

Alinity shares pet chicken story and its ending is just the worst – Dexerto
Alinity shares pet chicken story and its ending is just the worst PixaBay/Twitch/Mizkif/Instagram/Alinitydivine[jwplayer Y7PB7YwV]Twitch star Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon shared an incredibly disturbing story about a pet chicken she had growing up while on a podcast with fellow streamer ‘Mizkif.’ Alinity, who grew up in Columbia before moving to Canada, revealed how she has had traumatic experiences with pets as a child. In addition to her dog killing her bunny, she spoke openly about a pet chicken she had as a youngster, and how her parents treated it. Alinity explained that she had gone to summer camp, where staff took her to a chicken farm. According to Mogollon, the kids were given chickens, but her parents were against the idea. Not one to be deterred, she ended up bringing the animal home with her. “He was super cute and he was little,” Alinity reminisced. Eventually, however, the streamer’s parents claimed the chicken left and “found a family” – something the eight-year-old Mogollon believed. However, when she was fourteen-years-old, the streamer questioned her parents. “I was doing my autobiography for school, and I asked my mom, ‘What happened to [the chicken], you know?’” she continued. “’Where did he go?’ And she’s like, ‘Oh, we cooked him. And you ate him.’” At this moment in the broadcast, Mizkif’s face turned into an absolutely astonishing look of bewilderment at the reveal – one that we can certainly relate to. The story’s insane conclusion had both streamers speechless for a few moments as chat went crazy, spamming “Wtf.” While Alinity understood that her parents didn’t want the chicken, the whole thing upset her greatly. “Eating it themselves is horrible,” she said. “Feeding it to me? That’s just f***ing evil!” During the podcast, Alinity also touched on the infamous cat-throwing controversy and insisted that if it were up to her, she would have been banned from Twitch for it. It seems like while Alinity loves her pets, she’s had issues with them dating back to her time as a child – but even the cat tossing stuff pales in comparison to having your parents feed you your pet chicken.

Alinity shares perfect response to troll flaming her over “animal abuse” – Dexerto
Alinity shares perfect response to troll flaming her over “animal abuse” Instagram, @AlinityDivine[jwplayer Y7PB7YwV]Alinity Divine is one of Twitch’s most popular and most controversial streamers, so it should be no surprise that she has become absolutely proficient at shutting down haters. Over 130,000 Twitter followers, 332,000 Instagram followers, and one million-plus Twitch followers—Alinity is big on the internet and that means she’s got fans and haters galore. And on June 27, she shut down a troll publicly flaming her about the “animal abuse” scandal – despite privately praising her. A Twitter user took a shot at Alinity, insinuating that “more animal abuse” would comprise her plans in response to a “any guesses on what’s gonna happen tomorrow” Tweet. But the content creator, who was cleared of any animal abuse by the Saskatoon SPCA, was quick to shut them down with a screenshot of an earlier DM. In the private message, the user reached out to commend Alinity on her streams and “good work.” She thanked them, they said “you’re welcome,” and that seemed to be the end of it – but it seemingly wasn’t. Many replied to the behavior by saying that the user’s true “simp” or ‘clout-chasing’ nature had been exposed. The person then clarified that they initially intended to reply with an “animal abuse” joke in the DM “but chickened out when she actually responded.” Conversely, they explained to someone else that the original planned message insult was scrapped because they “decided to let it rest because it’s old.” Yes she thought because I was going to reply with something about animal abuse but chickened out when she actually responded — Jâšøñ (@J92967143) June 28, 2020 They changed course again in yet another reply, professing to have ended the DM kindly because they “didn’t want to get blocked.” Despite her past controversies, Alinity is one of the top female streamers on Twitch, with over 1.1 million followers at the time of writing.

Alinity says she’s not allowed to stream in mysterious Twitch update Instagram: Alinity.DivineTwitch streamer Alinity has explained that she can’t stream on her own Twitch channel in a mysterious update on Twitter. Having created her Twitch account in 2012, Alinity is among the longest-standing and most popular streamers on the Amazon-owned platform, boasting over 1.5 million followers on her channel. She’s also a common guest on Mizkif’s stream, having just collaborated with the OTK founder over who is the better parent for their fake baby. But now, Alinity has revealed that she can’t stream on her own Twitch channel after posting a mysterious update on her Twitter page. Alinity cant stream on Twitch On June 23, Alinity tweeted that she misses streaming “so much,” but in a reply, revealed that she’s actually not allowed to. “I can’t, I can’t, I can’t. It’s all I can say. It’s not up to me. I hope this sh*t gets sorted out soon so I can come back to reacting to sh*tty reality tv and showing my nice cleavage on stream.

Although fans were asking why, she stuck to her comment, saying that she can’t talk about it. According to TwitchTracker, Alinity has not been live on her own channel since April 28, 2022, when she was broadcasting for almost five hours a day. If the creator can’t return for another two months, she will be gone for almost five months. Perhaps she’ll make more appearances on Mizkif’s stream in the meantime.

Alinity reveals she’s been tracking thief for a month who stole her airpods – Dexerto
Alinity reveals she’s been tracking thief for a month who stole her airpods Twitch: MizkifTwitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon has revealed she has been tracking a thief who stole her airpods for over a month – and she plans to go and confront them. Alinity has been well known in the Twitch community for a number of years now – no stranger to controversy but frequently among the most watched and followed female streamers. She also regularly entertains her viewers with interesting stories, like the time streaming giants Netflix approached her about an OnlyFans documentary. Another came viewers’ way on February 9, when she appeared on Mizkif’s stream and revealed she’s actually been tracking a thief who took her airpods for over a month. Alinity reveals she’s been tracking airpod thief for over a month “Okay Miz I gotta tell you something,” she began. “So I have this pair of airpods, and my airpods went missing. And I’ve been tracking them for like a while… Someone stole them and I know where they live and I know where they work.” As she explained the story to Mizkif, he suggested they stream the confrontation with the thief – an idea Alinity was more than behind. She continued: “We can’t dox the person, obviously. But I know where they work… I’ve been tracking them for like a month and a half. I know their work schedule… They live in a $2 million home. I Zillow-ed it. They have a pool and everything – they’re rich.” She explained that she reported them as stolen, which would have prompted a message to the person using them. She joked she’s been “beeping the sh*t” out of the thief and she believes they work at the car dealership where she left her airpods. While Mizkif jokingly offered to go in and threaten the thief, Alinity pledged to “ask nicely” for her property. She finished: “I just don’t understand why they don’t give me my f**king airpods back.” Here’s hoping we ultimately get a video or livestream of Alinity retrieving them.

Alinity reveals she made $50,000 for an incredibly gross fan video – Dexerto
Alinity reveals she made $50,000 for an incredibly gross fan video Instagram/alinitydivinePopular streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon has made an insane amount of money making videos outside of Twitch and a gross one for a fan actually earned her a huge payday. For nearly a year now, Alinity has been making content on OF and she’s been raking in huge profits thanks to down bad subscribers. Back in May, the Colombian-Canadian explained how she made more in two months on OF than she would have made in 10 years on Twitch. As it turns out, there could be a good reason why she’s able to be so profitable. During a broadcast with fellow streamers Maya and Cyr, Alinity revealed the grossest video she ever made and how much she made off it. Alinity reveals $50K payday for “very elaborate” burping video “The grossest thing I’ve ever done was a burping video,” Mogollon claimed. “For someone.” When pressed over how much she made from it, she had to stop and ponder for a bit before revealing she probably made $50,000 off of it. Of course, it wasn’t just one person buying it, as she distributed the video to fans to pay for, but that’s still a lot of money just for one clip. “It was a very elaborate burping video,” she added. “I just drank a lot of soda and burped for like two minutes.” Later on, she further explained how the video cost viewers $100 each, suggesting 500 people paid for it. It’s also possible that someone who requested she make the video to begin with paid a bit more. Recently, fellow Twitch streamer Sweet Anita was shocked when her mods suggested she could make a massive profit selling her own “dirty” items such as worn socks and underwear. It just goes to show that people are willing to pay a lot of money, even for things that others might find a bit disgusting.

Alinity reveals “dommy mommy” theory for why she doesn’t have Twitch stalkers – Dexerto
Alinity reveals “dommy mommy” theory for why she doesn’t have Twitch stalkers Twitch/AlinityPopular Twitch star Alinity shocked viewers by revealing she’s never had any stalkers and shared quite an interesting theory about why that is. Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon is one of the biggest names on Twitch with over one million followers on the Amazon-owned platform alone and many others across OnlyFans, Instagram, and Twitter. Despite her massive follower count, Alinity says she’s yet to have a stalker experience like others in the community such as Amouranth, who had to deal with multiple terrifying incidents at TwitchCon. During a November 8 Twitch broadcast, the Colombian-Canadian theorized why she doesn’t have any stalkers and chalked it up to her dominant “mommy” personality keeping them at bay. Alinity claims her “dommy mommy” vibes keep stalkers away According to Mogollon, her personality has a big role to play in why stalkers don’t want anything to do with her and asked a fellow streamer in chat if they agreed. “I think, even though I’m short, I give people dommy mommy vibes and people are scared of me,” she said. “The male attention I attract isn’t guys trying to take me down, but guys who want to kiss my feet.” The term “dommy mommy” basically means a woman who is gentle, yet dominant and has become quite a desirable personality trait in recent years. The Twitch star went on to say that anyone who would try to “f**k with her” or break into her house would regret it. “I’m crazy, yo. If you’re trying to harm me, trust me dude, I’m Latina. Like, it’s not going to go well for me. So please, keep your distance from me. Don’t be creepy,” she added. Furthermore, the streamer pointed out how despite living in the small Canadian city of Saskatoon for many years she never had a stalker and has since moved to Austin, Texas. Of course, all of this is just a theory on the Twitch star’s part, but given the evidence, she might be onto something and says she’s going to continue with her “dominant” persona if it guarantees her safety.

Alinity reveals Artesian partnership offer that was “outright offensive” – Dexerto
Alinity reveals Artesian partnership offer that was “outright offensive” AlinityTwitch star Alinity claimed she received an “outright offensive” partnership offer she received from Artesian Builds after the company caught backlash for refusing to honor their PC giveaway. On March 1, prebuilt-PC company Artesian Builds caught backlash online after refusing to honor their PC giveaway to three Twitch streamers who had rightfully won. Since then, the company has felt the fallout as big names cut ties with the brand. Streamer group One True King ended relations with the company, and star streamer NICKMERCS slammed them over the public blunder. Now, another streamer has come forward and hit out at Artesian Builds. Alinity reveals her Artesian Builds offer The 34-year-old streamer was live on March 2 when she revealed that she was previously in talks to have a partnership with Artesian. Read More: People are actually spending thousands on Amouranth’s fart jars, because of course they are – “My agency came back to me and said ‘Hey Alinity, I know you really want to work with them, but the offer they’re making is outright offensive.’ And I was like, come on, how bad could it be? They’re friends of my friends.” She then revealed the exact amount the company offered her, “And then my agent says, ‘They’re asking for a bunch of stuff and they’re offering you $300 a month.’” Alinity was stunned by the low offer and reassured her chat she wasn’t kidding. She went on talk about how a previous company she worked with had offered her $300 a month in her early streaming days to simply put their logo at the bottom of her page. Compared to all the work Artesian wanted her to perform for the same amount, she was shocked by the offer and the partnership never happened. Since the drama blew up on social media, Artesian Builds have posted an apology video.

Alinity responds to Twitch blackmail rumors and fake marriage accusations – Dexerto
Alinity responds to Twitch blackmail rumors and fake marriage accusations Alinity, TwitchNatalia ‘Alinity‘ Mogollon has finally shed some light on some of the most serious allegations against her, which include not only a fake marriage, but also the idea that she has been blackmailing Twitch staff in order to avoid being banned. The streamer, who regularly hosts broadcasts on Twitch for her huge fanbase, has been the subject of many criticisms in her seven-year stint on the platform – and throwing her cat during a broadcast in July stirred up controversy once again. Many people expected her to be banned for the incident, but it didn’t materialize following investigations from animal protection services SPCA and PETA. Members of the online community have also claimed she had a sexual relationship with a member of Twitch staff, in order to escape a ban. Finally, though, she has given her take. “What really upsets me is the invalidation of success — if I’m successful, it must be because I’m fucking someone at Twitch. And that is so stupid,” she said in an interview published by FFWD on Medium. The streamer added: “I cannot tell you how much that upsets me. Because I mean, that’s all the merit I have in their eyes, you know what I mean? Like, maybe Twitch just understands me.” The 30-year old went on to suggest that, perhaps, she has never done anything “horrible” enough to warrant a permanent ban and, as of the time of writing, that appears to be the case as her channel is still active. Another allegation that has been constantly hanging over her head is the idea that she faked a marriage to gain Canadian citizenship. While the Colombian has addressed these suggestions during streams in the past, she refutes the idea that the marriage was staged to allow her to move to Canada on a spousal visa. Read More: xQc explains why he’s a “risk” for Twitch – “There’s always this balance that I’m juggling between, with the hate in my channel and controlling how many people can talk,” she continued. “My livelihood can be threatened by the power of trolls.” YouTuber PewDiePie also weighed in on the situation back in May, too, claiming that she has admitted to “committing marriage fraud” in the past. Alinity confirmed during the interview – which spanned across a variety of different topics – that she has been stopped multiple times by authorities, following reports that were made to immigration about said visa. She still rejects some of the strongest allegations made against her, but criticisms of the streamer are unlikely to fade away any time soon.

Alinity responds to leaked email revealing that she’d sold used underwear to a subscriber Popular Twitch streamer Alinity Divine has responded to a leaked email that revealed she has previously sold used underwear to fans of her stream. Alinity accidentally opened her Gmail account while streaming on Wednesday, November 21, revealing emails sent to her by various fans and companies. The streamer immediately attempted to close the page, but before she was able to do so, viewers spotted a message from a male fan titled “I want to buy,” with an opening line that stated; “Hey Alinity, I hope you remember you sold me a leopard bra many years ago. I offered you very good money then and I wanted to ask if you like to,” with fans unable to read the rest of the email. The clip was immediately posted to Reddit, forcing Alinity to come out and respond to the situation, choosing to do so on Discord in a chat log that was then posted to Twitter by Drama Alert host Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem. Read More: KSI disses Jake Paul for his breakup with Erika Costell In it, Alinity confirmed that she made the decision to sell her underwear around five years ago, citing that she was a “broke college student” and really needed the money. “It’s really fucking embarrassing,” stated the streamer. “It’s nothing something I would ever do again. He’s sent me a few emails honestly, I’ve just ignored it. I don’t even remember what the bra looked like.” KEEMSTAR has gone on to question Twitch’s staff, stating that Alinity has broken “so many” of the site’s Terms of Service, yet has never been banned. Keem compared it to his situation, when he was banned from Twitch for getting into an argument with a female streamer on Twitter, believing this is a double standard. Keep in mind @Twitch took my partnership away cus I got into a fight with a girl streamer on (Twitter) not twitch. They sent me a email that I broke the rules but my legal team went through every line & it was clear i didn’t break any rule but if I did so did the girl streamer. — KEEM :popcorn: (@KEEMSTAR) November 22, 2018 Alinity has refrained from responding to KEEMSTAR’s tweets, choosing to remain silent on the subject on social media. The streamer is currently involved in a legal situation with fellow streamer TrainwrecksTV, after she alleged that he had threatened to rape her in private messages sent to her, a claim he denies.

Though she is an incredibly popular streamer who has thousands of fans tuning in whenever she goes live, Alinity is a controversial figure to others. She sparked outrage when she tossed her cat across her room back in July of 2019, and was again under fire when she had a wardrobe malfunction on April 24. With calls for her to be banned on a permanent basis from Twitch, Alinity gave herself a three-day ban – even though Twitch only suspended her for a day.

What the future has in the store for Alinity obviously remains to be seen, but fans will want her to stay out of trouble so they keep getting their usual entertainment.

Alinity responds to backlash after old video goes viral Twitch: AlinityPopular Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon responded to backlash on social media after a video of hers from 2018 went viral on May 20. The personality argues that her opinion has changed since then. Alinity is one of the top streamers on Twitch, however she’s been no stranger to controversy, being banned in April for a wardrobe malfunction. The 32-year-old has now found herself facing new criticism after a video of her sharing views on men cheating from two years ago re-surfaced on Twitter and went viral. Alinity responds to backlash over viral video The whole thing kicked off when Twitter user ‘JordanPooleWrld’ posted a video of the Twitch streamer on May 20. In the clip, the personality gives her take on the difference between men and women cheating in a relationship. “For a guy that is in a relationship to be interested in other girls, that’s just cheating. But if a girl who’s in a relationship becomes interested in another guy, it often means that she’s not getting what she needs to get from the relationship,” she stated. The video was accompanied with a caption that read “This actually makes no f**king sense.” The user’s post immediately went viral, with over 1.8 million views and 60k likes at the time of writing.

I think I was projecting my own insecurities about being cheated on. It was a totally stupid thing to say. This is from 2018, I was way off.” While the online personality was quick to explain the video, she still received backlash from some who disagreed with her statements from 2018. Responding again, she said, “I don’t judge anyone for hating me based on the s**t I’ve done.” Read More: Pokimane receives a warning from Twitch – If nothing else, this is an example of how a clip from a streamer’s past can show up again years later – even if their views have changed.

Alinity responds after Ninja calls out “toxic” greedy streamers – Dexerto
Alinity responds after Ninja calls out “toxic” greedy streamers Alinity, Twitch / Ninja, MixerMixer star Tyler “Ninja” Blevins gave a pointed message to broadcasters who guilt-trip their fans for subscriptions and donations — but Twitch streamer Alinity weighed in on the subject with a different view. Streaming sites like Twitch often give fans the ability to support their favorite content creators in a variety of ways, from subscribing to their channels to gifting subs and even directly donating cash. However, some streamers have lashed out at their viewers for not supporting them monetarily, as seen in the case of ‘BadBunny,’ who went viral in December after hitting out at her fans for not subscribing. In response, Ninja released a statement in March directed at these streamers, who he called “horribly toxic” and reminded them that their viewers were to thank for their Affiliate status and ability to receive subscriptions, in the first place. However, Alinity Divine had a different view on the matter, which she explained in a detailed response to Ninja’s video a day later. Second video I’ve seen about a streamer ripping their viewers for not subscribing or donating. A couple of words for streamers out there that don’t understand how important normal viewers are. pic.twitter.com/lF1TiqFwyI — Ninja (@Ninja) March 21, 2020 While she agreed with his sentiments on the subject, she also noted that some of these broadcasters may rely on their viewers’ donations to pay their bills, and understood why they might prioritize monetary support from fans. “I agree 100% with you, appreciate your viewers,” she replied. “But a full-time streamer with 200 subs may be stressed about not being able to pay his bills.” “So, it is easy for big streamers that don’t have to deal with that stress,” she continued. “You make enough in ad revenue and deals to make up for it.” I agree 100% with you, appreciate your viewers. But a full time streamer with 200 subs may be stressed about not being able to pay his bills. So it is easy for big streamers that don’t have to deal with that stress, you make enough in ad revenue and deals to make up for it. https://t.co/Bv0KCdQrMS — Alinity (@Alinity) March 22, 2020 However, plenty of commenters disagreed with her opinion, with one user arguing that broadcasters shouldn’t go full-time unless they can easily pay their bills by streaming. “The problem with streaming is that your income can fluctuate a lot from month to month,” Alinity responded. “…I think people should chase their dreams, but I also agree that you should have a safety net for slow months.” The problem with streaming is that your income can fluctuate a lot from month to month. I disagree with your comment, I think people should chase their dreams, but I also agree that you should have a safety net for slow months. — Alinity (@Alinity) March 22, 2020 Neither would I. But I like to try to be understanding that other people’s situation isn’t the same as mine. I feel terribly about others struggling in times like these. — Alinity (@Alinity) March 22, 2020 I don’t think you read my tweet. I agree with what you are saying, I don’t watch anyone that yells at their viewers for not subscribing, nor I would ever do this. I just don’t think Ninja understands what it is like to struggle financially, easy for him to say. — Alinity (@Alinity) March 22, 2020 It’s clear that Alinity is passionate about the subject, even though Ninja was obviously not speaking about her in his Twitter post. Instead, he probably had the aforementioned BadBunny in mind, as well as CoD content creator “wingsofredemption,” who recently came under fire for raising his fee from $10 to $25 per hour just to continue streaming the game. Wingsofredemption was mocked for what he said, as WoW broadcaster “McconnellRet” joked about the matter to his fanbase a month later. Both sides make compelling arguments, but what’s your stance on the topic? Who do you agree with — Ninja or Alinity?

Alinity promises to “be better” following emotional Twitch stream – Dexerto
Alinity promises to “be better” following emotional Twitch stream Twitch: AlinityAlinity is one of the most watched female streamers on Twitch, with over 1.2 million subscribed to her channel. However during her July 2 broadcast, the star broke down after revealing how relentless hate for her past mistakes was taking a toll on her mental health. After the emotional video went viral, the personality received a wave of support from her peers in the industry – including Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins, who apologized for a tweet he made about her earlier in the week. The 32-year old thanked everyone, and promised to make changes. Alinity vows to “be better” Alinity’s July 2 broadcast was eye-opening for many, as the personality explained just how much hateful comments online had started to overwhelm her. “The s**t you guys say really affects people, okay? You guys have no idea how many times I’ve wanted to kill myself,” she confessed. The clip quickly went viral, as the emotionally raw moment put a spotlight on the mental health of online personalities – which is often overlooked. Following her statements, the Twitch star saw a wave of support from those within the streaming community. The 32-year old took to Twitter on July 4 to thank everyone, and vowed to make changes. “The amount of support is incredible, it’s impossible to thank everyone so I hope saying it here is good enough. Thank you. I will be better. But this is bigger than me. Please listen to each other.” The amount of support is incredible, it’s impossible to thank everyone so I hope saying it here is good enough. Thank you. I will be better. But this is all so much bigger than me. Please listen to each other. And remember those voices that can no longer speak. Love. — Alinity (@Alinity) July 4, 2020 Her stream also sparked calls for there to be less toxicity in the industry. To set an example, Ninja deleted his June 29 tweet which referenced her past controversies. The Fortnite star apologized and said, “I kept looking back at the tweet and saying I wouldn’t have sent that if I wasn’t a little tilted. I apologize as well.” The Twitch star’s poignant moment happened in the wake of Twitch legend Byron ‘Reckful’ Bernstein’s passing on July 2. Discussion about online bullying and mental health has been brought to the forefront. Alinity continues to crush it on Twitch, pulling in millions of followers to her channel. The personality consistently gets thousands of viewers a broadcast, making her one of the most watched streamers on the platform.

Alinity mortified after farting during WoW Classic stream – Dexerto
Alinity mortified after farting during WoW Classic stream Alinity, Twitch / Blizzard, vg247.comPopular Apex Legends and GTA V, she, like many other streamers, has been grinding the WoW Classic hype train following its release in late August. WoW Classic has brought a slew of humorous instances to her audience, already, as seen during an unfortunate disconnect during a stream – but her latest debacle wasn’t due to the game, itself. 600https://www.instagram.com/p/B1_0HoQHkTo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkAlinity was in the middle of a broadcast for the title on September 14 when she set down her wine glass, closing her eyes and appearing to concentrate on something. That “something” happened to be a sneaky fart, which came out louder than intended, with the streamer seeming mortified that she’d just broken wind during a live stream. In fact, Alinity even seemed to close down her broadcast due to the accident, breaking into crying laughter before admitting that she was terribly embarrassed by the slip-up. “I’m embarrassed,” she admitted. “I’m really embarrassed … that was so loud! …I’m sorry about that. I thought it was gonna be quiet! I’m so sorry, guys.” This wouldn’t be the first time WoW Classic has given Alinity unexpected content during a stream, by far: although it wasn’t a fart, the streamer suffered an ill-timed disconnect during a game on August 30, after playing in one of its largest servers used by top streamers. While this would usually mean an incredibly long wait time to hop back in the popular server after a disconnect, Alinity managed to skip the line and get right back into the game – a twist that she admitted was incredibly lucky. “Holy shit,” she exclaimed after dropping back into the server. “Holy fuck. I got so lucky.” No matter the circumstances, it looks like fans can expect a wild turn of events when Alinity plays WoW – although some might be more “embarrassing” than others.

Alinity leaves Emiru red-faced after casually dropping adult joke – Dexerto
Alinity leaves Emiru red-faced after casually dropping adult joke Twitch/Emiru/Instagram/AlinityStreaming sensation Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon left fellow Twitch star Emily ‘Emiru’ Schunk completely in shock after making an adult joke on her way out the door. Alinity has been making good use of her time out of Canada, frequently partaking in streams with Mizkif, Rich Campbell, and many more. Her adventures have resulted in a lot of fun moments to round out the year, such as mud wrestling with Kaceytron and even ruining Emiru’s Super Mario 64 speedrun. During a December broadcast, Alinity showed Emiru that she had the same scissors as her cosplaying friend and the Colombian-Canadian decided to make an adult joke that made Schunk quite embarrassed. Emiru embarrassed by Alinity’s adult joke After taking scissors out of her bag to show Emiru that they had the same, Alintiy couldn’t help but make a bit of a colorful remark. “We’re like scissor twins,” Alinity said, before realizing that the term could be used to refer to two women who are intimate with each other. “I’m going to go, bye,” she said, as the mortified Emiru couldn’t help but look on in amazement and disbelief. “I’m so sorry!” Finally, the streamer headed out the door leaving Emiru to sit there and soak up the comment with a half-grin on her face. “Guys, that was Alinity. She’s so cool. We got married in the fall,” she further joked. Given the chemistry the two have together, it will be fun to see what other content the two can cook up in the weeks ahead, especially if Alinity can keep up the comedic one-liners.

Alinity leaks Trainwreckstv messages amidst sexual harassment allegations – Dexerto
Alinity leaks Trainwreckstv messages amidst sexual harassment allegations Alinity | TrainwreckstvAlinity Divine has leaked a screenshot of direct messages sent to her by Trainwreckstv following her recent allegations against him Alinity recently accused Trainwrecks of saying that he would rape her in her Twitch chat, stating: “I think if a person tells you that they’re going to rape you, that’s not cool. I don’t think I would ever want to be alone with that guy, I’m terrified of him, honestly.” Her fellow Twitch streamer denied all the claims and revealed that he is seeking legal action against Alinity, saying: “My attorney is confident that things will go my way.” Alinity then took to Twitter to say that she was wrong about where Trainwrecks had threatened her before doubling down on the accusations of sexual harassment and leaking some messages that he appears to have sent to her in 2016. “I was mistaken exactly where some of the threats happened,” she said. “It’s been a cycle of him sexually harassing me, me saying NO, him getting angry and threatening me at events or in text, then later him wanting to ‘talk it out’, only to make sexual remarks or get in my face again.” I was mistaken exactly where some of the threats happened. It’s been a cycle of him sexually harassing me, me saying NO, him getting angry and threatening me at events or in text, then later him wanting to “”talk it out”

Alinity jokes she’ll get reported to PETA after knocking cat’s head accidentally – Dexerto
Alinity jokes she’ll get reported to PETA after knocking cat’s head accidentally Twitch: AlinityStreamer Alinity Devine finally made her return to Twitch following her recent ‘animal abuse’ controversy, and couldn’t help but make at least one joke about the situation. Back on July 18, the streamer caused outrage after throwing her cat over her head during a broadcast. After the clip went viral, social media users uncovered older clips were she fed her cat vodka and stuck a sticker over its face – with some accusing her of animal abuse. Since that point, Alinity had taken a break from streaming as pressured mounted on Twitch to suspend her channel, either temporarily or on a permanent basis. But, that didn’t happen and Alinity has returned to broadcasting – even taking time to poke fun at the whole situation. During her return stream on July 27, the popular broadcaster had been chatting to fans before she got up to feed her dog. After reaching over one of her cats to grab a container, she softly bumped into its head. Even though the cat didn’t flinch, Alinity quickly apologized before taking shots at her critics. “Sorry! Oh my God, they’re going to report me to the PETA,” she said, before feeding her dog some treats. After returning to her camera, the streamer couldn’t help but laugh at what had just happened, and lost what she was about to say to her viewers. Of course, Alinity may view the soft tap on her cat as a joke, but her critics didn’t take her previous actions lightly – with some even reporting the streamer to her local Saskatoon SPCA. Following an investigation, the Saskatoon SPCA essentially cleared Alinity of any potential animal abuse claims by stating that they believed there was no malicious intent when she tossed her cat across the room and she had expressed remorse for what happened. As for Twitch, the livestreaming platform has not made an official comment on the controversy – with only creative director djWHEAT weighing in and stating what he’d do if he had moderation powers. Alinity appears to be getting back into her regular streaming pattern, but may be more wary about how she interacts with her pets when live in future.

Alinity in contact with police after fans show up to her house – Dexerto
Alinity in contact with police after fans show up to her house Twitter, @AlinityTwitch / Pexels, Life MattersPopular Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon is filing a harassment report with the police and reprimanding fans on Twitter after her privacy was invaded by an unwelcome visit to her home. In a May 23 tweet, Alinity has had to explain that visiting someone’s home without their permission is a form of harassment. The star Twitch streamer elaborated that she is in the midst of reaching out to law enforcement, suggesting that she was harassed by an unwelcome visitor. It remains unclear if the Canadian-based content creator had a single, or multiple, people harrassing her — or how far they were able to get when “showing up” at her property. Showing up at a content creators house is considered harassment. I do not tolerate this and will be contacting the police and an incident report will be filed. — Alinity (@Alinity) May 23, 2021 The streamer’s tweet has been met with various reactions, typically ranging from shock at the stalker’s behavior and relief that she is reacting with the appropriate caution. Most fans appear glad that the streamer is working with the police to ensure her ongoing safety. Cementing that she does not “tolerate this,” Alinity has confirmed that she is “contacting the police and an incident report will be filed.” This is welcome news for her hundreds of thousands of followers, with many calling the harassing behavior “creepy,” “weird,” and “crazy.” At the moment, it is unknown if there has been any progress with law enforcement or if any arrests have been made. We will keep up with any news and reports from Alinity’s camp, but fans are appreciative that she seems to be safe and sound while police take on the case.

Alinity hits back at “speculation” of Twitch favoritism over ban appeal – Dexerto
Alinity hits back at “speculation” of Twitch favoritism over ban appeal Instagram: alinitydivineTwitch streamer Alinity is hitting back at speculation from critics that her recent ban was reversed due to favoritism and “backtracking” from the platform. On May 30, popular Twitch streamer Alinity received a 3-day ban from the site after twerking during a live broadcast. This sudden suspension prompted a string of angry tweets from the streamer toward Twitch, who lashed out at the “bullshit” platform for giving her a harsher punishment for dancing while fully clothed than she received for an accidental wardrobe malfunction in 2020. Alinity even considered “taking business somewhere else,” sparking offers from Rumble and OnlyFans competitor Slushy. Luckily, Twitch was quick to reverse her ban, and reinstated her account after just 24 hours. Although it wasn’t clear exactly what sparked this reversal, it seemed as though the buzz around Alinity’s ban was enough to catch Twitch’s attention. However, some critics speculated that the only reason Alinity received a lighter punishment was due to “favoritism” from Twitch, arguing that her status as a top streamer made the site “backtrack” their controversial decision. Alinity hits back at claims of Twitch “backtracking” twerking ban Alinity hit back at this speculation in a pointed tweet on June 1, clarifying that she’d simply made an appeal to the site — something that any streamer can do when they receive a ban. “It’s cute to see so many people speculating about Twitch removing my ban,” she wrote. “I appealed it with a lengthy paragraph and they accepted it. They didn’t ‘backtrack.’ Everyone can appeal a suspension.” To prove her point, Alinity provided a screenshot of an email response from Twitch, which reads: “After reviewing your case, we can confirm that the correct enforcement was issued. However, given the details of your case, we have decided to accept your appeal.” They ended the email by reminding her to familiarize herself with their Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. For now, it’s still unclear if Alinity will remain with Twitch following her latest ban. Considering the offers she’s received from other platforms, it might be possible that we see this streamer take her broadcasts to another site in the near future. Alinity’s ban also comes in the midst of popular Twitch streamer BruceDropEmOff moving to Kick after he was banned several times in the beginning of 2023, marking yet another major turning point in the ongoing streaming wars.

Alinity hits back after still getting hate over Twitch cat toss scandal – Dexerto
Alinity hits back after still getting hate over Twitch cat toss scandal Instagram/AlinityPopular Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon has revealed that she’s still getting hate online for her infamous ‘cat toss’ scandal that caused a lot of drama a year ago. On September 27, the Columbian-Canadian streamer posted several screenshots to Twitter showing the hate mail she’s received when Twitch decides to ban anyone else on the platform. In this recent case, the hate tweets were sent by fans of YourRAGE – a streamer and content creator who was recently banned. Each of the screenshots showed a fan of the now-indefinitely banned streamer calling out Twitch for not disciplining Alinity for “tossing” her cat in 2019, instead of suspending YourRAGE. Looks like someone got banned last night. Wake up to tons of these mentions. It’s been over a year can we let it go pic.twitter.com/SlzuOnJSM3 — Alinity (@Alinity) September 27, 2020 “You really gonna let a girl who yeeted her f***ing cat on the platform but ban YourRAGE for no reason?” one of the users in the screenshot asked, while others went as far as to accuse Twitch of being “sexist.” “Looks like someone got banned last night, wake up to tons of these mentions,” Mogollon said before pleading with the community. “It’s been over a year, can we let it go?” The infamous incident in question was from a July 18, 2019 stream, where Alinity, already frustrated from her Apex Legends match, got furious at her cat crawling on her desk, so she picked it up and appeared to “toss” him behind her chair, before returning to her game. What followed was months and months of backlash, to the point where PETA had to get involved, although they did clear her of wrongdoing as far as the law is concerned. The scandal spawned rumors involving Alinity and Twitch, with some assuming that she must have some sort of special agreement since other past events on her livestream have also come under public scrutiny. For what it’s worth, Alinity has said that she believes Twitch should have suspended her when the cat drama was ongoing, claiming that she doesn’t know why they didn’t punish her. “I know people that have been banned for smaller things than what happened with me, with the cat thing… I should have been banned. Maybe a suspension. I don’t know [how long the ban should have been]. Like a week? It was pretty bad,” she said at the time. Now, it appears that the hate hasn’t stopped, and even though she has nothing to do with these other streamers who get banned, her name still comes up every time someone big is disciplined.

Alinity gives strange advice on how to avoid Avengers: Endgame spoilers – Dexerto
Alinity gives strange advice on how to avoid Avengers: Endgame spoilers Disney / Alinity TwitchTwitch streamer Alinity Divine told viewers to call in sick to work and go see Avengers: Endgame, even if meant saying someone died. Alinity is no stranger to controversy but that’s oftentimes just something that comes from being on camera for larger portions of the day as a streamer. After all, this is the same streamer that accidentally showed a dick pic on stream, but this time she’s giving out advice on how to avoid spoilers for things like Game of Thrones or Avengers: Endgame. Just simply call out of work If you’re having trouble dodging Avengers: Endgame spoilers, Alinity says the best thing you could do is to just go see the movie. Read More: Novaruu “disgusted” by fellow Twitch streamer’s “arrogant” outburst about revealing clothing – But if you have other commitments such as your job, she says the easiest way to get around this is to call in and give an excuse as to why you need to miss. The excuse she chose to highlight was a bit of a surprising one, however. “Just go freaking watch Endgame, just go watch Game of Thrones,” she said. “What are you waiting for? Call in sick to work, say that your grandma died. Ok, no I shouldn’t joke about grandmas dying. Say that your pet rock died, I don’t care. Saying a relative died is always a good way to get off work but it’s not really something you’d want to abuse, especially if that relative is still living. Outside of telling your job your grandma died, her advice is pretty solid. Endgame spoilers are all over the internet at this point and it’s hard to get people to remain quiet about them, especially on Twitch. Alinity always seems to have an interesting story If you ever tune into an Alinity stream, chances are you’re going to hear something crazy. Just the other day on April 27, she talked about how she nearly got into a fight with another woman during a session of hot yoga. It really doesn’t seem like she has very many dull days.

Alinity finally announces Twitch return after mysterious absence for months – Dexerto
Alinity finally announces Twitch return after mysterious absence for months Twitch: AlinityTwitch star Alinity has revealed that she will soon be back streaming after having to take a break due to problems with her US work visa. Having become an important part of the Texas-based streaming community, Alinity regularly appeared alongside her friends and fellow streamers Mizkif, Sodapoppin, and Esfand. Then in June 2022, Alinity posted a series of mysterious tweets explaining that due to reasons out of her control she was unable to stream, much to the confusion of her 1.5 million Twitch followers. However, she hoped that the situation would be sorted “soon” so that she could get back to her usual routine. Her wish finally came true as on September 12, Alinity announced that she would soon back to streaming in the US and also explained why she suddenly disappeared from streaming. Alinity celebrates as US visa gets approved Speaking to fans via her Twitter, Alinity revealed that her US work visa had “finally” been approved meaning she would soon be returning to stream with her friends in the US within the “next few weeks.” The last time Alinity was seen on Twitch was back in April 2022. However, she’s continued to keep busy on Twitter sharing pictures with her family in her home country of Columbia, following on from her streaming break announcement. Nonetheless, her followers were delighted to hear that she would soon be returning back to the US and subsequently her Twitch streams would resume. The news was met with a warm welcome among Alinity’s fans who congratulated her and shared their excitement for her upcoming return. A number of her fellow popular content creators including CodeMiko, TheDanDangler, and kittyplays similarly shared their joy over the announcement. Alinity didn’t get a specific date as to when her livestreams will kick off again. Although, she as well as her supportive fanbase are hoping it will be as soon as possible.

Alinity faces backlash for calling waiter “racist” on Twitch over HAchubby incident – Dexerto
Alinity faces backlash for calling waiter “racist” on Twitch over HAchubby incident Twitch: MizkifTwitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon has come under fire over a clip from a stream with Mizkif and Maya Higa, where she accused their waiter of being “racist.” Alinity has been streaming alongside Mizkif and Maya in some IRL escapades, traveling around together and streaming their antics for their tens of thousands of viewers to watch. However, as is often the case with IRL streaming, it wasn’t long before drama struck. Alinity particularly has found herself facing criticism, due to a visit to Shake Shack. Alinity calls Shake Shack waiter a “racist” After one of the fast-food store’s servers was apparently rude to another streamer, HAchubby, who is Korean, Alinity suggested it was because the waiter was racist. With the waiter apparently impatient with HAchubby, as English is not her first language, Mizkif said that “the servers keep looking at us, they didn’t like us, and we really didn’t do anything.” Alinity suggested that “he didn’t like HAchubby. He was so upset that she didn’t speak the native language very well, I think he was racist.” The table then goes quiet, but Alinity continued, “instead of being patient, he was getting annoyed.” The internet hits back In response to the clip, users on the post’s subreddit have slammed the crew for being overly sensitive to the situation. “They really have to be careful,” one respondent writes. “That was a gross accusation to make, that could potentially damage his life. Especially saying it in front of 55k people.” Another echoes this, noting “dude’s about to lose his job because these streamers more concerned with their content than sensibility.” Further comments call the squad “delusional millionaires,” and hit back at Alinity for making “this century’s most s**t take.” The original Twitch clip has been removed following the backlash, but Alinity herself has not commented on the situation. Of course, Alinity is no stranger to controversy. Most infamously, a 2019 clip showed the Colombian star throwing her pet cat, the issue has continued to plague her ever since. While fellow streamer Mizkif trolled her in a stream segment dedicated to helping her learn “cat maintenance,” the issue remains no laughing matter for many.

Alinity exposes how Twitch leak proves people “shouldn’t stream for the money” – Dexerto
Alinity exposes how Twitch leak proves people “shouldn’t stream for the money” Instagram/alinitydivinePopular streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon found a silver lining amid the massive Twitch leaks to show that not everyone is cut out for her line of work. On October 6, a major Twitch leak rocked the internet, exposing the income of the Amazon-owned platform’s top streamers. Twitch is still investigating the breach and is continuing to update users as information becomes available. While the leak didn’t include sponsorship deals, it still gave users some insight into just how much money the likes of Pokimane, xQc, Hasan, and others earn on the platform. For some, the opportunity to make millions on Twitch may sound like a glorious opportunity to start streaming. However, according to Alinity, the leak shows why people actually shouldn’t stream for the money. Alinity explains why you shouldn’t stream for money “This leak should be proof that you shouldn’t become a streamer for the money, very few people make it,” the 33-year-old Colombian-Canadian streamer said. “I don’t think any of us that started before 2013 said, ‘Wow, I am going to press GO LIVE to be a millionaire,’ and neither should you.” Real talk tho. This leak should be proof that you shouldn’t become a streamer for the money, very few people make it. I don’t think any of us that started before 2013 said “”wow I am going to press GO LIVE to be a millionaire”” and neither should you. — Alinity (@Alinity) October 7, 2021 Mogollon first created her channel in late 2012 and has amassed over 1.4m followers in her time streaming. As such, she’s built up quite an impressive number of fans who support her content. That said, she’s in a very small minority compared to the site overall. “My math is really bad, so please correct me if I am wrong: Out of 8 million active streamers in Sept 2021, only 6,000 make minimum wage. That is 0.075%,” she noted. “So, let’s say streamers make double what their Twitch earnings are. That means that 7,500 streamers make minimum wage. That STILL doesn’t put them above the top 1% of Twitch.” So let’s say streamers make double what their twitch earnings are. That means that 7,500 streamers make minimum wage. That STILL doesn’t put them above the top 1% of Twitch. Mind-blowing.— Alinity (@Alinity) October 7, 2021 Alinity reveals how much she makes on YouTube The numbers don’t just apply for Twitch, either. When asked if streamers would make more or less money on YouTube, the Canadian unveiled how much she makes from posting content on the rival platform. “I don’t know what YouTube stats are like. But I am guessing they look a lot, if not worse, than Twitch’s,” Alinity said in response to a fan. “I have 100k subscribers on YT, and only make a few thousand a year. Now, YT is better for discoverability to BRING people to Twitch, but not for revenue.” I don’t know what YouTube stats are like. But I am guessing they look a lot, if not worse, than Twitch’s. Considering I have 100k subscribers on YT, and only make a few thousand a year. Now, YT is better for discoverability to BRING people to Twitch, but not for revenue. — Alinity (@Alinity) October 7, 2021 Alinity only posts around one video a month on YouTube, so her numbers may differ compared to others, but her point remains the same: Making money on Twitch is difficult. If you’re thinking of streaming after the Twitch leak because you want to make some easy money, you may want to heed Alinity’s warnings and just do it for fun. If it becomes a career for you, then go live the dream – but as she said, it’s a very small number who even make minimum wage.

Alinity explains why streamers are “afraid” to defend friends amid Valkyrae RFLCT drama – Dexerto
Alinity explains why streamers are “afraid” to defend friends amid Valkyrae RFLCT drama Instagram/alinitydivine/valkyraePopular Twitch streamer Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon addressed the recent drama regarding 100 Thieves co-owner Rachell ‘Valkyrae’ Hofstetter’s RFLCT skincare and why some of her friends didn’t come to her aid. Valkyrae’s RFLCT skincare product has been criticized since its announcement with many calling its claims of protecting against “blue light pollution” a “scam.” Throughout the controversy, Valkyrae took issue with fellow streamers she considered to be her friends not defending her – something that big names such as Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel had no issue with. Now, Alinity has entered the fray and has explained why she believes many people just refuse to get involved in others’ business. Alinity says streamers were “afraid” to defend Valkyrae In a stream with Mizkif, Alinity and her Texas-based pal discussed the ongoing controversy, with Miz claiming that he sees “mutual benefits” of speaking out. “When you see someone being wronged, do you actually defend them?” the Colombian-Canadian asked. “Not a lot of people have the balls to do that.” Alinity herself has gotten into some hot water in the past, including her now-infamous cat-throwing scandal and some wardrobe malfunctions on Twitch. According to Mogollon, when streamers have little to gain by speaking out, they often times won’t at the risk of being targeted themselves. “A lot of people don’t have the balls to get involved when there’s drama,” she added. “That’s what I think happened to Valkyrae. She was really upset that her friends didn’t come and defend her, but she needs to understand that a lot of people are afraid. It’s not worth it, getting destroyed by the internet.” Speaking from experience, Alinity noted how the same thing happened to her when she had drama, but Mizkif was there and took some heat. Following this, the two hugged it out with Mizkif applauding his friend’s speech. It’s going to be interesting to see what the future holds for Valkyrae and RFLCT and if the 100 Thieves co-owner will address Alinity’s comments in the future.

Alinity explains why she wants to marry Amouranth: “We’d be a great power couple” – Dexerto
Alinity explains why she wants to marry Amouranth: “We’d be a great power couple” Instagram/Alinity/AmouranthTwitch fans, brace yourselves! Streaming star Alinity has revealed she would be down to marry Amouranth and form a Twitch power couple unlike any other. Natalia ‘Alinity’ Mogollon and Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa are two of the biggest female streamers on Twitch with millions of followers between them on multiple platforms. The duo have made a fortune through Twitch, producing OF content, and in the process, became a couple of the most recognizable faces in the streaming world. As such, could you imagine what would happen if they were to join forces? That’s exactly what Alinity pondered when asking live on stream if she would ever tie the knot with Amouranth. Alinity reveals why she’d marry Amouranth During a live stream, a viewer posed a question on stream, asking the streamer to marry Amouranth and it didn’t take long for Alinity to begin weighing the pros of being with the hot tub star. “Bro, we’d be such a good power couple!” she exclaimed. “We’d be a great power couple. Could you guys imagine? We’d be so rich. Holy sh*t.” Amouranth has made an insane amount of money through OnlyFans and her multiple investments ranging from purchasing gas stations to plastic ball companies further expanding her empire. Alinity, meanwhile, has stated that when she first joined OnlyFans, she made more money in two months than she would have made in 10 years on Twitch. “Do you think Amouranth is into girls? I don’t think so. She’s a ruthless businesswoman, I’m just there for the ride,” the Colombian-Canadian added. Furthermore, Alinity hinted about how her relationship would be in the bedroom, claiming that she “wouldn’t be submissive,” but went on to change her tune, suggesting that it would “depend.” Of course, don’t expect the two to actually end up getting married any time soon if ever, but it would be absolutely wild if they did. And hey, stranger things have happened on Twitch before.
