Fousey signs to Kick after being banned from Twitch twice in a week FouseyYouTube star turned streamer Fousey has signed a deal with Kick after being banned from Amazon-owned platform Twitch twice in one week. Starting out as a YouTuber over a decade, Fousey is now one of the biggest names in streaming at the moment. From being under fire and accused of taking advantage of a \u201ctrafficked\u201d woman at an airport to the use of racial and homophobic slurs \u2014 it\u2019s fair to say Fousey has been a major vocal point recently. On August 7, Fousey was hit with a three-day ban for saying a \u201chateful slur\u201d on stream, where on August 10, the streamer returned to continue his 24\/7 broadcast \u2014 only to be banned for a second time in the space of a week. Likewise to many others in the space, Fousey has now jumped ship following his second ban, signing a deal with rival platform Kick. Fousey signs deal with Kick after second Twitch ban In a tweet on August 12, the Twitch star revealed he signed a deal with Kick \u2014 and also apologized for his mistakes resulting in the two bans. \u201cDear @Twitch I LOVE YOU. So much. But you dropped the ball HARD. I signed with KICK this week,\u201d he wrote. \u201cBut STILL was gonna celebrate 24\/7 on Twitch out of respect. And you banned me twice in 1 week.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m sorry for the F slur and driving wreck-less but in ALL my appeals I said \u201cI don\u2019t have a twitch rep. Please have someone teach me TOS.\u201d Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll be back. But not this weekend. G7 @KickStreaming ALL WEEKEND! Respectfully. Furthermore, in a Kick stream the same day, Fousey said that signing a deal, \u201cI started YouTube on March 25, 2011. Every YouTuber that started with me died ten times over. They now work a regular job, good for them, make a living. \u201cIt\u2019s 2023, I\u2019m still here and I\u2019ve just signed a deal with Kick and I\u2019m about to take the f**k over.\u201d He added: \u201cI\u2019m live 24\/7. The cameras never turn off, I show you everything even when I\u2019m in the heat of drama and the internet is trying to cancel me. I\u2019m live, so you see I don\u2019t script sh*t, I don\u2019t fake sh*t and everything\u2019s real.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
