Pokimane Reaffirms Her Stance Against Joining Kick
Pokimane has firmly stated she has no intention of joining Kick, citing concerns about the "insane" behavior allowed on the platform. Despite leaving her exclusive contract with Twitch in January due to its moderation issues, she remains against signing with Kick, which she criticizes for its ties to online gambling and its permissive content policies.
Her stance was emphasized during a recent livestream when she responded to a video exposing troubling behavior from Kick streamer Tomer Lawton, who was accused of inappropriate actions with underaged girls on the platform. Incidents like this, along with other controversies involving Kick streamers, continue to deter Pokimane and other mainstream creators from joining the site.

Valkyrae Sets the Record Straight on Plastic Surgery Rumors
Valkyrae recently addressed swirling rumors about plastic surgery after a South Korean clinic shared her photo on Instagram. The popular streamer, who visited View Plastic Surgery in Seoul, was mistakenly linked to cosmetic procedures due to the clinic’s social media post. However, Valkyrae clarified that she only received a facial and not any surgery.
During a livestream, Valkyrae expressed her frustration with how the clinic's post had misrepresented her visit. She also noted that other streamers in her group were omitted from the original photo. Valkyrae, who has previously shared her aversion to cosmetic enhancements, reassured fans that she has no interest in such procedures, humorously stating that she plans to embrace aging naturally.

Jake Paul’s Family Worried About “Scary” Mike Tyson Fight
Jake Paul has opened up about his family’s concerns over his upcoming fight with boxing legend Mike Tyson. According to Paul, his mother, Pam Stepnick, is particularly worried after seeing Tyson’s intense training videos. The fight, initially scheduled for July but postponed due to Tyson’s health issues, is now set for mid-November, and Paul’s family is uneasy about the matchup, especially given the significant age difference between the two fighters.
Despite his family’s fears, Jake remains confident, insisting that he’s ready to take on Tyson. He believes that a win could propel his boxing career even further, with potential matchups against other top fighters like Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. While some in the boxing community are skeptical of the fight, calling it a “scam,” Paul is focused on proving his critics wrong and making a statement in the ring.
