So\u2026 what\u2019s brewing? Charli D\u2019Amelio reveals her eating disorder Who\u2019s involved? 16-year-old Charli D\u2019Amelio is TikTok\u2019s most popular content creator, boasting over 85 million followers on the app and a slew of fans on other social media sites due to her viral dancing videos. What\u2019s the tea? Despite her popularity and bubbly attitude, Charli has been the target for internet trolls for quite some time, and the latest outrage sparked after an Instagram tea page shared an older video of the star. The video in question showed Charli lipsyncing to Beach Bunny\u2019s \u2018Prom Queen,\u2019 which included a lyric that said, \u201cCount your calories.\u201d https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CE-PsV2njMv\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Needless to say, Chari\u2019s comments were soon filled with critics piling on the young TikToker for apparently promoting disordered eating to her millions of fans \u2014 but Charli\u2019s forthcoming response revealed a secret she hadn\u2019t revealed to anyone. How did Charli respond? In her apology post, Charli admitted that she suffers from an eating disorder, and has had a difficult time opening up about the issue even to her own family. \u201cI\u2019ve been afraid to share that I have an eating disorder, but ultimately, I hope that by sharing this, I can help someone else,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI know eating disorders are something that so many people are also battling behind closed doors.\u201d Thus far, fans have been showing ample support to the TikTok queen in wake of her soul-baring post that has many critics rethinking their social media crusades. Ninja returns to Twitch after Mixer shutdown Who\u2019s involved? Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins is one of the gaming world\u2019s most popular personalities, best known for his massive growth on Twitch from 2017-2018 and his love of competitive Fortnite. What\u2019s the tea? While Ninja achieved massive success on Twitch, he and the platform had a bit of a falling out, and the star moved on to Mixer once the platform emerged as a competitor to his former home. However, nearly a year later, Mixer shut down and merged with Facebook Gaming in a move that left many streamers shocked and upset \u2014 but it looks like Ninja had a backup plan that no one anticipated. Where is Ninja now? While Ninja broadcast his gameplay on YouTube for a short while, he hadn\u2019t made any exclusive commitments with any platform for some time \u2014 that is, until September 10, when he announced that he\u2019s making a comeback to Twitch, despite their previous bad blood. While the gaming star received a hefty ~$30 million buyout from his now-defunct Mixer contract, it doesn\u2019t look like he\u2019s finished streaming anytime soon \u2014 and he\u2019s back where it all began. Logan Paul gets heat for collabing with 6ix9ine Who\u2019s involved? Logan Paul is one of YouTube\u2019s most successful \u2014 and controversial \u2014 figures, having seemingly overcome his past scandals to host a successful podcast, where he found himself interviewing the one and only Tekashi 6ix9ine in September. What\u2019s the tea? 6ix9ine is a divisive figure in his own right, having been accused of multiple offenses that had him facing a 47-year jail sentence. However, after informing law enforcement about others involved in his racketeering charges, the rapper was released from custody \u2014 but is now the unintended posterboy for \u201csnitching.\u201d Paul and \u2018imPaulsive\u2019 co-host Mike Majlak confronted 6ix9ine about these claims during their podcast episode, to which the star didn\u2019t seem too fazed \u2014 but critics across the net are sounding off in disgust at his appearance on one of YouTube\u2019s biggest shows. Paul isn\u2019t the only one facing backlash for featuring 6ix9ine on his channel, either; other creators, most notably TikTokers of the Hype House, are similarly dealing with backlash, and even fellow creators have made no bones about how they feel about the situation. hey if you see influencers that you watch collabing with famous pedophiles for views just know they don\u2019t care about you they just care about that sweet sweet cash \ud83e\udd21 https:\/\/t.co\/MTgRgAu5U0 pic.twitter.com\/bAVg5Qy0SG \u2014 Danny Gonzalez (@dannygonzalez) September 9, 2020 What\u2019s your take on the 6ix9ine drama? Do you think these creators should have collaborated with him, or not? Pokimane makes her Twitch comeback after month-long hiatus Who\u2019s involved? Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is another massive face on Twitch, boasting well over 5 million followers on the platform due to her humorous on-stream reactions and joint broadcasts with other content creators. What\u2019s the tea? Despite Imane\u2019s largely positive and easygoing image, the star came under fire after YouTuber \u2018LeafyisHere\u2019 claimed that she had a secret boyfriend, somehow convincing a legion of internet trolls that they ought to feel justified in harassing her over the issue. This, combined with creator burnout, caused Imane to take a step back from social media, which she announced in a Tweet in early August. That\u2019s not all; Pokimane even uploaded a lengthy apology video not long after, explaining why she keeps her relationships out of the public eye. https:\/\/twitter.com\/pokimanelol\/status\/1303790355431657474?s=20 Despite the drama surrounding her on all sides, Imane announced her return to streaming on September 9 \u2014 and although she\u2019s \u201cnervous\u201d about her comeback, fans can\u2019t wait to see what she\u2019s got in store after her lengthy break from the exhausting world of social media. Twitch streamers beg fans for help after being stalked Who\u2019s involved? Sweet Anita is a popular Twitch streamer, best known for her acute Tourette\u2019s Syndrome and the hilarious antics that arise from it. What\u2019s the tea? While she may be a comedic broadcaster, she uploaded a YouTube video on September _ that was anything but funny. Anita has been vocal about her experiences with a long-term stalker for quite some time, and her YouTube video expanded upon it \u2014 as well as including similar accounts from other top streamers. Anita interviewed names like XChocoBars, Kaceytron and even Destiny, who all opened up about the frightening instances they\u2019d endured at the hands of obsessive stalkers. The harrowing interviews culminated in a Twitter hashtag, #stopstalking, in hopes that the streamers and their fans can raise awareness to police inaction regarding the matter. From severe internet stalking to some of Twitch\u2019s top streamers making huge returns to the platform, this week has been chock full of surprising developments.
