Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is one of Twitch\u2019s top broadcasters, currently ranking as the site\u2019s 10th most-followed streamer on top of being its most-followed female content creator, overall. As such, it makes sense that quite a few people using social media have probably heard of her \u2014 so it came as little surprise that, when she decided to peruse Omegle for a YouTube video, quite a few of the strangers she met actually knew who she was. For those out of the loop, Omegle is a website that allows you to enter chat rooms with strangers based on a series of prompts, or just completely randomly. These chat rooms can have video or be text-only. During one of her conversations with online randoms, Poki ran into a young man who recognized her. However, he initially refused to show his face on camera, instead choosing to show his hairline from where he sat in his home. Pokimane gasses up fan scared to show his face At first, Pokimane was confused. \u201cWhy are you only showing your forehead?\u201d she asked. \u201cNot even, it\u2019s just your hairline.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m not showing my face,\u201d he replied. \u201cI get embarrassed. \u2026I\u2019m not very good-looking.\u201d This surprised Pokimane, who asked the guy to show his face so she could judge for herself whether or not he was as plain as he claimed. He finally turned the camera to show off his mug \u2014 and Pokimane was shocked. \u201cWhy are you saying you\u2019re not very good looking?\u201d she asked in genuine confusion. \u201cYou look so normal. Like, there\u2019s nothing wrong with you.\u201d \u201cOh, thank you!\u201d the young lad replied. \u201cYou really think you\u2019re not good-looking?\u201d a surprised Poki asked. \u201cHow old are you?\u201d \u201cEighteen,\u201d he answered. \u201cYou should not feel that way about yourself,\u201d Anys encouraged him. \u201cWhat in the world would make you feel that way? And you\u2019re so young! Show your face to the world forever!\u201d (Topic begins at 2:38) She ended their conversation after the young man answered that he would do as she asked \u2014 hopefully facing the rest of his day with confidence after one of Twitch\u2019s top streamers reassured him about his looks. This isn\u2019t the first time Pokimane has spoken out about self-image on the internet lately. In fact, just a week ago, Anys had an open conversation with fans about the dangers of social media and how it makes some users \u201cobsessed\u201d with their image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pokimane encourages shy fan who thinks he\u2019s ugly to show his face YouTube: PokimaneTwitch star Pokimane encouraged a shy guy on Omegle who he was afraid to show his face on camera due to low self-esteem about his looks.
