AYYY
Queen 👑
Poki!
hello poki
I hate the fact that in the screenshot where she looks 'ugly', she's still genuinely beautiful. People will find the dumbest things to get upset/mean about
The worst part is her under-eye bags and they’re still so much better than mine
the thing I don't like is that if you call Poki beautiful / good looking you would automatically be called a simp by the haters
@Han everyone is beautiful in a different way...God made us all unique
Yeah people only use that one image to say shes ugly when the worse part of that picture is the lighting
Her skin seemed so clear in that photo too and I just wish mine was like that.
she genuinely seems like a nice person who doesn’t deserve all the hate, I love her mindset shes just doing what she loves and she sees why people hate on her and doesn’t take it personally
She is lmao. The only problem I have with her is that she can be a hypocrite sometimes and sometimes she takes things a little too far. But the things she takes too far are because she genuinely thinks the other person has extremely bad intentions because of the past misogyny she faced so I kinda understand.
@@hinamatsuro1908 everyone's a hypocrite in one way or another. It's just that the word sounds very vulgar
@@HP-tw6tl she made a guy lose sponsors fully just for calling her out, then took down a guys video just addressing a situation, then made 2 half assed apologies very long after it all happened then every time she gets constructive criticism she sends a hate mob to that person and get them either to be deplatformed or to just take a break
@@d4rthk3rm1t4 Yep i don't like Pokimane, because she can't take any criticism, like hasan and pokimane uses the sexist card as an excuse, while Hasan tries to deflect criticsm, by misreading and misinterpreting what the person said.
Aka Itsagundam and Jay Exci.
She is the fakest narcissist ever
I used to hate her so much when I was in my "pick me" phase, because of the internalized misogyny I had, but when I started watching OTV, she has become one of my most favorite people ever, I love her so much.
I'm glad you overcame attention seeking behavior! Remember, streamers are people just like you and me.
You are a good man.
@@byonemesis pick me most times suggests they are a lady
@@brov3313 that misogyn
@@misakisinsornot yeah but many women posses internalized misogyny due to the way women are raised in a society made and accommodated for men, it's something really interesting to read about and educating yourself on these matters actually helps you a lot with your self esteem (can't recommend any books as of now but will try to find the ones I've read and see if I can find my comment again)
this is such a great show anthony!
YO IS THIS GUY ! HEY GUY !
YO RYAN
your name is kevin now
What, is your next goal to by interviewed by Anthony Padilla?
How is dr phill as a grandpa?
While it is true that any big streamer male or female can face hate, women get it from a whole other side that men do not so I really respect Pokimane for sticking in there. Keep up the good work stay strong
They seem to get hate more and get secually harassed
Not necessarily. Don't play the gender card. There's always legitimate criticism for everyone.
no she just makes it a women issue. ironmouse and hachubby doesnt get a lot of hate. most ppl in the otv and friend group doesnt get hate. rae didnt get any hate before rflct (kind of deserved).
@@wotgat so you’re mad at her for addressing the very real issues that female streamers face? just because other streamers don’t talk about it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist LOL
@@jk6586 legitimate criticism IS NOT sexism. Stop pushing that BS propaganda. Stop trying to exempt your queen of any criticism.
I used to not like her because all the bad rep, but she actually seems like a really mature and nice person.
No way, all the rumors and gossip isn't actually true! Who would have thought!
@@ticklord i mean some of it was pretty accurate but yea she gets alot of unnecessary hate
I still probably won't respect her fully due to the transphobia thing, cause that stuff really upsets me
@@ticklord I mean she said the Hard r tho🤔
No she didn't @@luckymark571
I didn't expect her or anyone to be this level headed. Kudos to her!
@@GZH98 watch again then talk before assuming things😑😒😑
@@byonemesis watched it.... didn't change much. Don't get me wrong I don't hate her, but that was a pretty spiteful move to call out Linus when he tried to keep her name anonymous.
@@GZH98 dislike, ok. Hate ? No. Hope you make the difference between dislike and hate. Because it's not the first time I've seen that. Let's just say...that the last user who spread hate towards an acquaintance quickly regretted his comments after facing the person IRL. No worries though, they are on better terms now. That is...
@@GZH98 he couldn't keep her anonymous he replied to a tweet that had 50k likes and he addmeted he was wrong both privately and publicly
@@jamesrd9884 He replied with a tweet or verbally? Either way you are telling me that Pokimane expects to post tweets on Twitter publicly and not expect people to reply with their own opinions? Why were they even mad at him for voicing a different opinion publicly when she twitted about her opinion publicly?
It’s also weird how people who defend pokimane are called simps. As if you can’t genuinely like a female streamer for who they are (with no sexual intentions)
Her personality is so repulsive I struggle to find any other reason people like her than her looks and the fact she's a woman, something she likes to use as a shield against all criticism.
I mean I genuinely like her content but ALSO sexually attracted lol doesn't have to be mutually exclusive 🤣 but in all seriousness I also dislike people being labeled as a simp just for being supportive
@@blackgothicrose89 also a girl lol so no judgment
One of my favorite UA-camrs, Smajor, defended her once and someone was like “she’s not gonna fuck you bro😂” Unbeknownst to to the person commenting, Smajor is a GAY man
its because women are seen as sexual objects so a lot of men cant imagine just liking a woman as a human being and not having certain ulterior motives to like them. its pretty depressing.
It’s stupid to me that race and gender politics so negative in the streaming community. A good streamer is a good streamer no matter what the person looks like. It’s sad that some people don’t see it that way, though. At least Pokimane is still streaming and doing what she loves in spite of this sort of hate.
Well actually the only reason she got popular in the first place is because of her looks and gender. Shs's so bland personality wise she'd never make it on twitch as a man.
@@anitaremenarova6662 WeLL aCtUaLLy 💀
Unfortunately a lot of streaming viewers are male "gamers" who feel obliged to be misogynists online. Poki had to overcome a lot of that to get where she is. It takes thick skin.
@@anitaremenarova6662 To think looks and gender have carried her insanely successful and almost decade-long streaming career is just ignorant at best.
@@anitaremenarova6662 bruh
Let’s be honest, a lot of the reason she gets controversies and rumors about her is simply because she’s a woman, an attractive woman, and an independently successful woman. No matter how you present yourself, how you treat others, what you say, nothing, matters. As a woman you’ll always lose 🤷🏻♀️
@@transformera4834 this person said 'a lot'. not every single time... we KNOW she has done things that were not okay and so does she, but that doesn't change the fact that A LOT (not every time) of the times, people are coming up with ridiculous stuff.. literally getting hate because she is 'ugly'??? come on
@@transformera4834 in some cases, sure. and she has acknowledged most of those so... I still agree that a lot of the reason is because she is a woman- not ALL, but a lot. jidion was a good example
@@transformera4834 you sound like the incels. Every single time one of you come up to say "Pokimane has done actual, terrible things and all of it is VALID criticism and totally not misogyny," none of you fuckers can actually come up with ONE bad thing she's done. It's funny. And she doesn't fucking have simps, get over it, she has genuine fans that are both male and female.
@@transformera4834 So you think men who acknowledge how powerful women can be and who support women are simps ? :/ which makes no sense
Or she's a shitty person who keeps getting away with doing shitty things cuz her simps like to control her internets narrative of her
A mistake you made many many years ago doesn't define who you are today, people change and grow.
Twitter: I'mma pretend I didn't hear that.
At this point all Twitter is social media from the brain dead ppl
Everytime I hear her talk, I am blown away by how well spoken she is. She's so good with words, it's really impressive
@black3millimeter school bag some people aren’t good with words and don’t speak that clearly. the person was just pointing out that she’s well spoken, which is true.
this just feels like a backhanded compliment every time I hear or see it
@@yourmom-nj5rb that person will never reply back, they have comments turned off. They make comments that are condescending and just snobbish. This is their power move! It's really not but this what makes dumb and arrogant people feel good these days! Lol
@@victoria4 I'm a bad speaker, turning ideas into clear, concise and easy to digest sentences is hard as fuck. Plus she isn't even native so it's even more impressive.
Don't think people who say this have bad expectations or try to make the person feel bad. They would just say something else if their intentions were to hurt.
@@jamesrd9884 You'd be surprised by the amount of people who pursue engineering or have higher academics despite their social skills still being fucking atrocious.
I mean there is a reason why they choose engineering and not business or laws at the end of the day.
"If you haven't had a mental breakdown in engineering, you didn't do engineering"
FACTS FACTS FACTS
if that clip doesn't come back for the Markiplier interview I'm gonna be sad
relatable
Recently become a poki fan and she's so mature for a streamer. Like the last stream with xqc she was very delicate with talking to him about gambling after realizing that he has an addiction with it himself! Gotta respect her
*Great video!*
In regards to the _"slur incident"._
We as a society expect 1 thing above all else from our fellow humans: to learn from our mistakes & do better.
To repeatedly punish someone who not only has learned & who does better, but also actively campaigns to ensure others understand why not to make her mistake, is detrimental to our very core values.
If you're 1 of the people doing this, *you're a bigger problem than she was* when she made the mistake. You aren't learning from yours.
Why can't Africans say the n-word?
Who are you to tell them that they can't say that word?
The fact that she ever even felt the need to apologize for that is insane.
it’s sad to see how effective the hate she recieved from leafy and keemstar was. people who don’t even know her thinks she has done something terrible, which she really has not. I’m glad anthony let her on so that the hate might simmer down a bit. she does not deserve it.
They have incel fandoms, their audience don't care if she did something bad or not, they just pretend they do because it legitimizes their hate of women. Ultimately even if these people knew she isn't a monster they would still hate her, like I'm sure half of them do know by now yet I don't see them support her or try to change the narrative. They're incels, as sad as it is for poki and other female influencers it's a lost cause.
It's funny she received a dono a little while back saying that they didn't like her because they believed all the hate posts on the internet but when they actually took the time to learn the truth they realized they were wrong about her
they're a bunch of brain dead people always looking for someone to target, doesn't matter what it is
she DEFINITELY has done a lot of bad shit, i have no idea how none of you bother to do a quick Google search before defending her
@@juliuscaesar8071 I am already well aware of her controversies and know of her from offline tv. the only legitimate bad things she has done is unfairly taking down drama channel’s videos when she wanted the keemstar beef to die down (big mistake), said the n-word a long time ago and watched youtube videos while streaming, all of which she has apologized for. Anyone who has actually looked into it will see that she is actually one of the more fair and smart content creators out there. If you have to hate on someone, at least do it to someone who deserves it.
She seems like she has such a healthy relationship with her career and the internet and general! So inspirational!
@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus Well considering the fact that if you don't have money, you can't survive in majority of the world, I don't blame them
One of many reasons she earned the Streamy’s Legacy Award.... ✨
Poki never fails to impress with how articulate and thoughtful she is
edit: i take it back, she did depp v heard trial watch parties. can’t respect that on any level.
Weird take with the edit, every big streamer did, and it was to be expected. It was unanimously the trial of the decade, and was the biggest trial since the OJ trial. If streaming existed back then, that would have been streamed too.
The trial was news, and covering news isnt new for streamers.
bad take
@@allisoncornell4378 yeah and i unsubscribed from a shit ton of streamers. the OJ trial wasn’t exactly known for its respect for the law and justice, and this case won’t be either. in fact, the OJ case is oft cited as a glaring miscarriage of justice and the influence of media coverage. just because ‘everyone’ turned the case into a media circus doesn’t mean i have to blindly accept it or respect the people who took part. i was believed that certain people had more ethical awareness than they did, and that’s my fault for forgetting that money trumps all, but this case was a valuable reminder. not every streamer used the case as entertainment and i am happy to have curated my feed down in the fallout.

Everytime someone talks about Pokimane saying the N word, I always bring up PewDiePie. He did the same, yet he doesn't recieve nearly as much slander online as Pokimane does. Especially since PewDiePie said it more recently and at an age older than when Pokimane did! (Make no mistake, I love PewDiePie, I just use him to show how people slander her more since she is a woman.)
Ninja sang it in a song when the word wasn't even in the song and no one brings it up
@@jamesrd9884 exactly, male content creators seem to get away with a lot more, but if a female content creator does it, it's all of a sudden a big deal
Different points of view. Chances are those people who have those thoughts on her saying the N word probably have that same opinion on PewDiePie. The only reason we're hearing about the n word is because it deflects from the tons of people with valid criticisms against her.
@@Brucifer2 Finally, someone here that is actually logical.
@@Brucifer2 mysogony
genuinely she seems like such a down to earth and cool person. i don’t get all the hate
Most hate she gets is reasonable, she has a history of abusing copyright systems and going after other people's income (one of the lowest things a creator can do to another) I advise you to look into videos giving insightful criticism on the bad she has done, she of course has done lots of good too, but I just feel the bad outweighs it
@@Smallahz that the best you got lol
@@Smallahz I agree that the copyright system is wack, but when you bring unrelated things like gender etc into it your argument falls apart and loses any credibility. If you're actually concerned about the abuse of copyright strikes all you're doing is taking the focus away on a system that can really use some changes
Well, she did get banned for streaming Avatar.
But let's be honest, other streamers also often break copyright and should get clapped, like Hasan who often even just leaves and lets the videos running
@@Smallahz Nah that sounds like a shit reason to hate someone
You should do a video about "anesthesia awareness"
I agree! I recently learned about it from Stephanie Soo and hearing Anthony’s perspective would be nice!
YES
He already did
@@littlebossgirlj7808 i think you mean synesthesia
I just looked it up and that sound horrifying holy shit. Would cool to hear about it!
Poki's comment about having multiple pillars in your life to avoid having one area be your end all be all was such a great perspective. It made me realize I need to invest more in my relationships!
Man people were making fun of her for how she looked without makeup? Bruh she looks normal lmao.
What, they never saw someone without makeup? They're just kids with attention seek issues.
Her hair is amazing when it’s natural. I hate that people try to force horrible damaging hairstyles on people, like it’s annoying. Just let girls wear their natural hair!!
I take amazing care of my hair and my hair isnt even close to how good hers looks
What a fucking first world problem.
@@conormurphy4328 they force girls to change their hair texture EVERYWHERE around the world, don't give us that "first world problem" bullshit
@@conormurphy4328 uh not really, all over the world in countries that don’t have much take care of their natural hair and don’t damage it. cause damage hair isn’t a look. So why can’t people just keep comments about girls and women’s hair/looks to themselves if they don’t like it. Cause it can result to a big issue.
What is your issue? Since it seems like you care about other world problems, why don’t you go to videos that talk about those issues. Maybe you can be helpful with that. Than wasting time commenting useless shit. Like you clicked this video. What did you expect to see in the comments?!
@@conormurphy4328 so? still a problem that people have
“If you’re in engineering and you haven’t had a mental breakdown, then you’re not in engineering” lmao she gets it 😩🙌
I've never watched any of Pokimanes content, but she seems like a sweet person. Glad people like this make it big. Good on her!
The internet as a whole needs to learn who actually deserves to be targeted. Yes the bigger someone or something is, the more likely they'll turn out to do something messed up. But that's not a concrete rule. There's definitely exceptions to said rule. But I also blame people like Keemstar and LeafyIsHere who made their entire livings by encouraging people to start shit for profit. It pisses me off that those people didn't just die down, but somehow grew into something SO much worse.
I feel bad for her and female streamers like her who have to do deal with the misogyny and sexism side of having a big platform. Good on her for being strong.
Poki support :)
pokimid
But she acts as tho that EVERY man speaking againts her is a villian of some sort. Even if her name isn't mentioned.
We all go through things hard for me to feel bad for any of them
As a female streamer thank you lol
As a woman that does gaming, Poki is so inspiring and her advices are so helpful, I don't watch her content but I really respect her for not giving up to all the toxicity and misogyny in the gaming and streaming community.
Im not saying misogyny doesn't exist in the gaming community but could you please give me an example of when poki has faced large scale misogyny
@@Smallahz bro
@@Smallahz dude please say ur kidding
@@Smallahz just see the unbann request videos, if you think thats not misogyny youre just dumb
@@Smallahz look another misogynist lol
Just because Pokimane has been in controversies doesn't mean she deserves to be seen as a controversial streamer; what matters is how you handle those controversies, and she's done a good job at that. I wasn't on her side during the Gundam controversy but people need to stop taking it so seriously
She really is such a remarkable and wise person. I almost teared up during this cuz she reminds me of my mom who is a self-made business woman
"In life it is important to establish multiple pillars that form the entirety of who we are rather than reinforcing the idea that our entire sence of self is based upon one pillar alone " ... Damn that hits deep 💜
All the people criticizing her for her “mistakes” over the years act like they have never done anything they have regretted when they were a minor or before 20 years old. There is a huge between constructive criticism and hate. People don’t want her to improve, people want her to fail no matter how much she improves and the comments just shows
I swear the people who kept bringing up the fact that she said the n word 7 years ago say the n word themselves or used to
To add on to this, the "anonymous-ness?" of people allows them to just hate or say things without the consequences
Why'd you put quotations on that word? Is falsely striking peoples' videos not a mistake? Is her falsely accusing creators smaller than her of hate videos not a mistake? Is her blaming the criticism for her own actions on misogyny also not a mistake?
Also, she was over 20 when she made the more recent "mistakes" so I don't know why you pulled that out your ass.
@@shiggydiggy5509 no need to be disrespectful about it. You’re so aggressive which further proves my point. Also she has addressed her taking down videos and I think it’s perfectly reasonable because of her management and mindset. It is wrong probably but people who use her name for money are not in clear as well. Also I would love for you to educate me on further mistakes than videos and n word which was years ago. What recent stuff
@@shiggydiggy5509 have you been in the chat, when hate comes in, it’s very misogynistic. It was and will not go anytime soon
Poki has such a mature mindset about her situation. I admire her. She is very emotionally intelligent. Props to you Poki, cheers to a long career!
As a child I learned that the best way to get through to my parents was to make a PowerPoint presentation, so at the age of 11 I managed to get a TV in my room
no way :o
I had one since 4, all I had to do was eat the dog
'mistakes shouldn't define who you are' so true poki
She is indeed. Also I wanna say this :
Sadly...some haters will see this comment and try to insult or make their point when they are just stupid to stay on a closed topic. But at this point, those haters are just kiddos with attention seek issues. I don't know if my phrase makes sense.
💅🏻”Sweetie I know I live with myself”💅🏻
-Pokimane ✨
Honestly she is a queen I hate how people hate on her STAY STRONG POKI!!!
Queen shit 💕🙌
shes such a queen for tht
‘you’re not an engineer unless you’ve had a breakdown’ TRUTH. SHE GETS IT. Idk how many breakdowns I’ve had 🙃 a good few lol
Why
I don't usually watch her content but peeked now and then given how big she is and I remember one time chat did.... not behave.
And she honestly had my respect in that instance, because she was able to stay calm, take back the control and I can only imagine how much hate and harassment actually happens.
To have that constantly, being reduced and criticised to race, looks or gender it's nice to see how she seems to handle it by balancing it with the nice things in life and keep that think before speaking + alltogether controlled air around her online.
She doesn’t have content

Hello
Unironically, I really wanna see Anthony stream or something
He seems like he can become a great streamer with time
He has hinted at a slight desire to stream as his vtuber, not entirely sure what's holding him back or what, but I hope he does stream some day. It would be cool to just watch him goof around
its so sad how any woman who wants to be a content creator has to deal with derogatory words and sexual harassment while playing a fucking video game
Look and takes it so well even though she's been through so many controversial things its just crazy. I could never handle things like that. Props to her!
Look means pokimane
I don't care about the controversities, the stalker part is the one that scares me is just so scary
Yeah like she has so much thick skin which is really unfortunate bc it really shows how toxic it is to be such a public figure
2:39 Poki: "THEY MADE IT SOUND LIKE A DISEASE"
2:40 Anthony: "i tHoUgHt YOu hAD a DISEAAAASE"
Also Anthony in the intro: *makes it sound like a disease*
💀😎😎😎
I feel so bad for her for the amount of times that she has had creepy people showing up at her home. Like that’s messed up
This was a really great interview! Her mindset when it comes to streaming (separating the brand from the person, focusing on personal relationships, etc.) was really insightful, and you can see how she's able to keep going despite all the negative attention and sensationalist coverage. I think any content creator could benefit from taking this advice.
"if you're in engineering and you haven't had a mental break down you're not an engineer" very sadly relatable
Thank youuuu this makes me feel validated
The pillar concept is something I really needed to hear personally. Its such a cool and helpful thing im going to try and incorporate into my own life!! Thanks imane and anthony♡
The amount of shit I would get for watching a women content creator from my old roommate was unreal. His whole mindset was if you watch a women, you are simping for her and that's all. It was beyond him that just maybe they are entertaining and fun to watch
Its such a harmful attitude to have to think that women only exist for ppl to be attracted to and can’t exist as content creating individuals on the same level as men without their fans being “simps”
Thank you for not being a shitbag like your old roommate!
As someone who has watched you from your early Smosh days, I just wanted to give you credit for being to able to adapt and reinvent yourself as successfully as you have. I always enjoy your content and hope you keep making more.
People always understate just how bad women have it being on the internet. Not to say that men don't get harassed, but typically men don't get lambasted for simply existing on every platform unless they're really popular. And their is no real solution to this problem other than just ignoring it and spreading awareness.
He’s on a mission to interview everyone
I love that you guys got talked about some serious stuff that other people went through. And also, I got to appreciate poki more because of the hardships and trials she had faced; you could really tell she's mature.
The amount of criticism poki’s faced is 100% due to her being a woman streamer in a predominantly male community (gaming). She’s made mistakes and I’m not even a loyal fan, I’ve watched her here and there throughout the years and she really does have talent, charisma and is an excellent content creator. Misogynists love to say she is only successful because she’s a woman is so wrong
even tho she falsely claims other people's videos with no proof of them doing the things she accused them of.
people don't hate her bc she's a female but bc she abuses her power as a popular person
I absolutely love this series! Anthony is such an amazing Host i imagine it must be nice to be a guest, and she is so adorable. Its stunning how she is handling it all.
All being said this really makes me think that working on something like this must be such a great experience 😊
Love how Poki doesn’t publicly date so her accomplishments won’t be attributed to her boyfriend and yet poor poor Joel Smallisbeans is constantly being compared to his lovely wife LDShadowlady
What accomplishments? Being the first e-thot all the simps flocked to?
i knew she existed but since im not the type to "get on the hype train" i never really knew who she was until now, i knew she was a big streamer and had "drama" but she seems like such a positive person despite being exposed to the internet for awhile now. i dont know the controversies shes been in, or what shes said to make people hate her. but i feel like she genuinely wants to grow and be a better person for everyone and herself.
14:00 true I am Moroccan and I once told my mom is wanted to be a chef she looked at me and said "do you want to die YOU will eat trash to LIVE " and she started praying I never cooked in front of her again
As someone who learned about Poki through controversies.
I feel bad for her.
No one should be defined by their mistakes.
I won't even like to sit with my younger self.
People grow, fools don't.
Don't be a fool.
yeah me too.. :( and i feel a little guilty..? because i just had some wrong assumptions about her(and its not only her that i have had made wrong assumptions of.. T-T)
@@pravashi_382 exactly ❤️
I started watching Poki cause I saw so many awful things said about her that I got curious and looked into her. Turned out most of it was just people repeating hate comments like parrots, without an actual source and making a lot of assumptions. When I actually tried to find what she did wrong, apart from saying the n word when she was a stupid minor, there was nothing.
I started actually watching her stuff and not hearing what other people had to say about her but what SHE put out into the world, and honestly Im so glad I did! I think she is an amazing person, she has a great outlook on so many things and she is really strong to be able to take to many people literally going to every corner of the internet to talk the worst things about her.
People dont wanna admit it but most of the hate she gets is straight up people trying so hard to make her the devil cause they are mysoginistic and dont wanna admit it. Ive seen people say she is worst than Hitler ffs.
Those people are kids with attention seek issues. And most of them being idiotic misogynists.
Sounds like you didn't actually do research then.
@@Brucifer2 you're welcome to share your sources if you care that much. I simply didnt find anything that wasnt people saying things about her, nothing with actual proof.
I always leave these videos more hopeful. Anthony is a great interviewer
Drewski? Didn’t expect To see you here
I’m going to subscribe. I don’t follow that many commentary UA-camrs who are female unfortunately. She is so sweet, and given every opportunity to speak lowly of the people who treat her badly, she just says they aren’t educated on what they’re doing. It takes a lot of maturity and understanding to look at it like that.
I don't personally watch her content because it just doesn't entertain me, but I think overall she is a genuine nice person. I still believe she has made some mistakes, but the majority of the hate she doesn't deserve. Plus, I felt her first apology video was completely genuine and we'll thought out.
Yeah it doesn't deserve the hate
Still, I won't forget the hypocrisy of handling that part regarding about the gundam youtuber, then suddenly became one similar to that the next week/s after. I already got over it, but that is where I realize that her stream is not my preference so I did not follow/subscribe back.
Edit: Replace making fun with handling that part, since everyone wants to be specific about what I'm talking about. So here it goes. I still dislike that part, and that will never change.
@@AmaitaYume Nah she never made fun of him bc he was a vtuber she was just calling him out on making fun of peoples looks while also hiding his face know the facts before you speak
@@AmaitaYume Yeah, looking for the full context is not your preference.
@@hodotoi well sorry for the word of making fun, but yeah I did research after this video again. I was too lazy to edit my comment. But I still dislike how it was handled honestly. It's like two different environment clashed with each other, so not also knowing what that video is all about from an outsider's view is understandable, but how can you misinterpreted something that it doesn't have to be all about you? That was my take before. But now, it's just a as simple as being not interested anymore about it and continue on with my our life, since she's more successful than I'll ever be.
Well, I hope for her for the best still. She's a good person without a doubt. It's people making mistakes and amending it is the important part. And that includes me. I do not hate poki at all, but I directed my hate of her fanbase to her personally which is a bad part. It's a good thing I grow up away from that now.
@@ParadoxSpiral or you could just correct me, but you just need to diss someone like you know it all. I still don't find her entertaining in my side. But there's a lot of people who likes her content, so it doesn't need to be me.
As a viewer of hers, it kinda sucks that so many people think she's this awful person when she's really so sweet
I pity you for how gullible you are.
I just can't stand how prevalent stalkers and targeted harassment is towards women streamers? Like, the amount of women streamers I've seen having to deal with death threats, stalkers, doxxing, and more, is insane. They're all very resilient and have good support systems (usually) but they shouldn't have to deal with that in the first place.
Ugh I so jealous of her hair. It’s freaking amazing, thick, and beautiful
She’s not gonna f*ck you
She's very intelligent. I liked her thoughts about separating Poki from Imane
I’m not a huge Poki fan but I don’t understand all the hate she gets. Nobody deserves to be hated on that badly for no reason. Also it is NEVER ok to stalk anyone!
Same. Never really understood it too. They are literally hating on her just for the sake of hating
@@luvrix its a trend to hate on her tbh. Ppl hate on her usually bcs they watched ytbers that made a vid about her and talk shit about her. If they follow that ytber, they would put into their mindset how bad poki is.
I was like this at first, i nvr watch her but i have seen the countless videos where ppl create to make her look bad. But i recently watch otv and enjoy their content so much. I still am not an avid watcher of her but time to time its fun to tune in to the stream
I do respect her as a business woman and content creator, she obviously knows what she is doing although i do not watch her myself :)
@@donyx0604 alright I did some research and I found out that people hate here because she’s done a lot of bad things and is a hypocrite
@@jayvgc420 Well done 🤣 finally people can see an example of research in real time. Shes an awful human being.
I love your interviews Anthony, you're an amazing host and a great person❤️
Perhaps for a future episode, could you do interviews with childhood trauma survivors? I'm a survivor myself of negligence/psychological abuse from a parent. I'm a lot better now, thanks to the support from friends and family, but i know that's not the case for a lot of people...perhaps seeing stories of other survivors will help them feel less alone or ashamed of what they've endured and give them hope❤️
Not a poki follower here ( not saying this in a negative way ) BUT just want to say so you see this is not biased. She seems incredibly wise and has a healthy mindset with healthy workplace habits. I had no clue how incredible she is and how well she portrays herself. Deff a positive role model and maybe if I have time I can try and show support by catching a stream
She's so sweet and VERY pretty, with or without makeup. People who are mean to her are evil liars! Hoping she continues to rise above and succeed! 🌹🌹🌹

I'm going to give my kids "the talk" with a powerpoint presentation
The "Pillars" convo actually gave me so much insight in life
Awesome interview! Thanks for sharing your POV. The pilars idea, sticks with me, as well. Anthony, I notice you didn't use a Notebook as guidance for the interview as previous videos. That's a big challenge! You are doing great, Anthony!!! 🖤
Can we make a petition to call Pokimane ''Pokemon'' .
on a more serious note i'm glad you addressed all the drama surrounding her. sad that she's such a controversial figure.
As a Pokemon fan
I've gotten confused with Pokemon and pokimane when am just scrolling through something and not paying attention-
Never personally watched one of her streams but she seems pretty chill
yea, apart from saying the n word she's pretty chill
@@zydeko almost a decade ago people change
@@zydeko she literally explained that in the video did you even watch it
@@zydeko watch again then talk.
@@zydeko I mean...have one minor criticism of her and you can pretty much kiss your career goodbye. Shes hardly chill but the n word thing? Nah man people make mistakes when they're young, foccus on her recent mistakes as an adult.
I don't know how Poki has maintained her wholesomeness throughout all these years of streaming, but I love that a person like her exists in the gaming space. :)
Dude the thumbnail is SICKK i love the change in the thumbnail edits keep going !!
You should have valkyrae on here I think it would be cool to learn about how she helps with getting out of hate
I love this series and Anthony is a great host
I was really impressed with this. I don't really involve myself much with drama surrounding Pokimane but I've heard some pretty bad stuff, I didn't know what to expect honestly but she turned out to be such an articulate, mature, and just overall impressive person! I liked the pillar analogy and how she talked about her career and dealing with the hate, I can tell she's really thought about this a lot and I honestly admire her for dealing with all this. She seems like such an amazing person! Lol my preconceptions literally just got blasted out of the water, really enjoyed the video!
I had small streaming friends that hated her and I kept asking "why. why? why." I could not understand them and then I got an idea. They don't care for her but she is so successful. She gets to do what she wants, be happy, and receive all the benefits they can't have. They are so mad seeing how happy she is, especially when she is so expressive of her happiness. It makes them more miserable and uncomfortable with themselves. I lost them as friends saying this and dont regret it lol
Pokimane is very wise, I really liked the pillar analogy, I think it would be very useful for so many people to keep it in mind.
I don’t know much about the negative stories about her but the few times I’ve watched her interviews I’ve always come away impressed by a young woman who is a smart business leader and has a good outlook on life. Like the opposite of a Jake Paul.
She has so much good advice on how to keep a healthy relationship not just with online streaming as a career, but on how basing your whole life on your career or a single pillar of yourself isn’t healthy. That’s so wise, I wish I heard her advice before I learned the hard way😅
I feel so bad for her she is so hated and sexualized it’s creepy and annoying.
love how much work you put into these types of videos! we appreciate it
this was very nice and informative! I appreciate both anthony and poki for making this happen!!
thank you for this interview! it was insightful and tbh it made me aware of (maybe) how she is really is. I am grateful that I got to know about her and her way of thinking things through! Its so easy to just portray influencers like her badly 😬
and also..i get a little uninterested in streamers that are into controversies and everything and on top of that if i am not interested in that particular content too so i never get it who they really are or know the truth about it..😅
13:01-this quote is the most relatable thing I've heard today; here I am watching Anthony instead of revising for exams
Anthony's one of my favorite interviers. He covers so many topics and adds humor to them.
Poki: also I don't wanna catch a nintendo lawsuit
Anthony: *2005 flashbacks*
She’s truly one of the most entertaining streamer that I know. I could barely finish the streams of others but with her, it always feels like time is flying by. I love her! Such and inspiration…
One of my favorite interviews. So cool to know more about Pokimane's life and views on streaming & being such a huge content creator.
SHES ONE OF THE SMARTEST PEOPLE IVE EVER WATCHED I REALLY WANT TO BE LIKE HER
Study hard and do things you love :)
i didn't think much of it when i clicked on this video but this kinda helped me think about things differently. the part about the pillars was really interesting. honestly i don't watch poki but i respect her, and I'm sorry she had to go through so much
not even kidding, you give me chills when you talk and serious things :D keep up the great work :D
THESE ARE SOOO INTERESTING I CANT STOP WATCHING. I also love how he does interviews with everyone! These are great to listen to while doing homework or something, PLZ MAKE MORE!!
