Despite her bubbly personality and upbeat content, TikToker Addison Rae also draws criticism online, with her following now exceeding 70 million on TikTok. And this trend isn\u2019t going away anytime soon, as Rae has once again become the subject of controversy \u2014 this time, just for playing Among Us with a group of the game\u2019s biggest personalities. On December 29, Twitch streamer Pokimane announced that she would be playing in an online lobby with such names as Dream, Quackity and Corpse Husband. Addison Rae\u2019s name was also included in the mix, leading to a swath of negative reactions from fans of the other participants. big among us lobby tonight at 6PM PST \u263a\ufe0f\ud83d\udd2a ft. @larrayxo @jamescharles @whoisaddison @Dream @Corpse_Husband @GeorgeNotFound @bretmanrock@Quackity @KarlJacobs_ see you live @ https:\/\/t.co\/nlEB4gohua \ud83d\ude04 \u2014 pokimane (@pokimanelol) December 29, 2020 In fact, many seemed to be shocked that Rae was chosen to participate instead of popular streamer Sykkuno, leading to further backlash around the situation. https:\/\/twitter.com\/youdonotexist_\/status\/1344028372125540355?s=20 \u201cI log on to find out Addison Rae is playing with Corpse??\u201d one fan tweeted. \u201cLogging back off.\u201d \u201cNAWWW NOT ADDISON RAE PLAYING AMONG US W THEM,\u201d another bemoaned. \u201cGOODBYE AND IT\u2019S PROXIMITY I\u2019M CRYING THIS IS NOT GOING TO GO WELL.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/DREAMSD0LPHINS\/status\/1344008119400210432?s=20 However, plenty of viewers have asked the so-called \u201cstans\u201d to avoid harassing Rae and other invited TikTokers, such as Larray, even if they might not be enthusiastic about their involvement in the upcoming game. you may not like addison rae (and thats okay) but don\u2019t send her hate tonight, or talk shit about her in anyone\u2019s chat. we\u2019re all there to have fun tonight. be nice. \u2014 jess \u2b51 (@MATTSTURNI0L0) December 29, 2020 And they weren\u2019t alone, floods of comments disappointed that Addison was playing kept coming. \u201cWhen I saw Addison Rae, not to be mean or anything, my smile kinda dropped. This better not become common,\u201d another fan said. Others called Addison out for her past controversies, calling her \u201cproblematic.\u201d Viewers send hate in stream chats After the stream concluded and the group had enjoyed some Among Us together, Addison thanked the streamers for the invitation and said \u201cI had so much fun &#038; have so much love &#038; respect for the people I got to do it with.\u201d But, the Twitch chats had been less than courteous, and some of Addison\u2019s fans tried to support her after some of the hate that had come her way. https:\/\/twitter.com\/lexkebab\/status\/1344145203909840898 Due to the toxicity in Twitch chats, streamers Dream and Quackity turned their chats to emote only mode, to prevent further vitriol. Clearly, despite the group wanting to play together, there was a large contingent of fans who disagreed with the collaboration. However, the streamers themselves had a great time \u2013 Dream commented that it was a \u201cblast\u201d, and Karl Jacobs thanks Addison for joining them. Whether future collaborations with TikTok stars and the Among Us crew happen or not remains to be seen, but the disdain from fans may be enough to put one or both parties off the idea for a bit. Addison Rae\u2019s drama over Dream merch This latest outrage comes several weeks after Rae received merchandise from Dream, which similarly set off an avalanche of negativity toward the TikToker and her own fanbase. Many critics have called out Rae for her past, noting that she had shared a post that called the Black Lives Matter movement a \u201ccult\u201d four years ago. Still, others claim that Rae told fellow TikToker Kyo Cyr to \u201csay the N word\u201d during a live stream. Rae has repeatedly denied this allegation, stating that she had merely asked Cyr if he\u2019d said it after his chat pointed it out. She did not say the slur in question during the stream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Addison Rae sparks backlash after playing Among Us with Corpse, Dream, Pokimane &#038; more YouTube: Corpse Husbad \/ InnerSloth, Addison Rae, DreamTikTok star Addison Rae is facing the ire from fans of popular YouTubers and Twitch streamers, including Corpse Husband, Dream, Pokimane, and Quackity, after agreeing to play in Among Us with them.
