Here’s a rewritten version of the content with improved flow and clarity while retaining the key details:
Twitch star Imane "Pokimane" recently opened up about her experiences with fellow female streamers on the Sweet n Sour Podcast (March 15, 2025). While Pokimane remains one of the most influential figures in the streaming world, her fame has often been accompanied by controversy. During the podcast, she addressed instances where female streamers have tried to diminish her reputation to promote their own content.
Pokimane expressed her frustration with these incidents, stating:
"I’ve seen other female streamers—not anyone I know personally or who’s extremely popular—promote their streams by putting me down. I’ll come across tweets like, ‘Come watch my stream, I’m nothing like that b-word Pokimane.’"
She emphasized her disbelief at such tactics, questioning the ethics of building a community based on negativity:
"I just look at that stuff in shock. Sure, you might get a few more viewers for the night, but is that really the community you want to build? If you, as a woman, are fostering a community of guys who hate me—whether for misogynistic reasons or something else—they’ll likely turn on you just as quickly."
Lily "LilyPichu," who co-hosted the podcast, echoed her sentiments:
"In general, I don’t believe in putting others down to lift yourself up. That’s something we all hopefully grow out of eventually because it’s just not worth it."
Pokimane’s career has not been without controversy. She has faced backlash for allegedly using the N-word in her earlier streams, which she addressed by acknowledging her past immaturity and stating that her actions no longer reflect who she is today.
More recently, her Myna Cookies venture in November 2023 sparked criticism for its high prices and accusations of rebranding an existing product, Toatzy.
