‘Amouranth’ is one of the biggest names on Twitch today, with over 1.3 million followers enjoying her humorous content and sexy dance moves during her livestreams. However, not everyone is a fan of this stunning female streamer who captivates viewers. Despite having a large following on the platform, Amouranth is also a controversial figure, with certain clips she has posted sparking outrage on Reddit and other platforms.
In fact, this online star has faced so much criticism in the past that she is now afraid to stream IRL due to concerns about the serious issue of “swatting” – making false reports, as she mentioned in an interview with fellow streamer Devin Nash earlier this February.
Swatting, defined as making false reports, calling the police, fabricating stories related to murder or terrorism, is intended to bring armed forces to a specific location as a prank. In recent years, streamers, singers, and actors have frequently become victims of this.
Considering her position as a major influencer online, Amouranth has reflected on this issue and revealed that it is one of the reasons she avoids streaming IRL.
“My problem with IRL is that I have too many unsafe vulnerabilities, and there are people who like to call the police and make stupid fabrications“, she stated. “I have experienced this before and it is not pleasant at all. If while streaming, I reveal my location, such as at the zoo, many people will track me down and try to get me in trouble or create disturbances, anything. That is the issue”
Instead of posting banners or locations when attending animal protection events, something other online stars like Pokimane still do, Amouranth has chosen to abandon such projects out of fear of jeopardizing the safety of both the animals and the workers at those facilities.
“I really enjoy volunteering at shelters and have their donation links so people can contribute to the shelter, but now that is not okay at all, I don’t want where I am to become a mess” – Amouranth shared further.
Alongside fans, having too many anti-fans willing to create incidents that significantly impact Amouranth personally and other celebrities, the female streamer plans to launch a public broadcast on this topic and make clear statements against those obsessed with causing trouble and harassment to others.
