Pokimane explains why she didn\u2019t expect to win Streamer Award over Sodapoppin Twitch: Sodapoppin, PokimaneTwitch star Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys won the Legacy Award at the Streamer Awards in March 2022, hosted by QTCinderella and Maya Higa \u2014 but she thinks another nominee deserved it more. Pokimane has long been one of the biggest names on Twitch, and a hugely influential name for women especially, in the livestreaming world. She\u2019s helped break barriers in a largely male-dominated industry and become one of the most viewed women on the platform \u2014 so it\u2019s fair to say her legacy is one that many would be proud of. When she won the Legacy Award at the Streamer Awards, however, she thought that Chance \u2018Sodapoppin\u2019 Morris actually deserved the win more. In her post-Awards vlog, Pokimane is clearly mindblown that she actually won the award, admitting that she didn\u2019t expect it. \u201cI didn\u2019t think that I would win anything at all,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I tell you I had zero expectations of winning, I really mean zero.\u201d She continued, saying that \u201cI literally told other people that I think Soda should win,\u201d before cutting to a clip of her explaining why she would pick Sodapoppin before the awards, commending the longevity of his career on Twitch. Timestamp 10:27 Poki went on to state that she is \u201cso flattered\u201d that voters see her the same way she sees Sodapoppin, but that she does feel like she deserves it considering she didn\u2019t ask others to vote for her. If this becomes an annual awards show, there\u2019s no doubt Soda will get his flowers eventually \u2014 and we know Pokimane will be one of the first to vote for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
