Pokimane hits back at “disheartening” insults after sharing FaZe Kaysan DMs

by

As a seasoned Twitch enthusiast with a knack for deciphering the nuances of online interactions, I must say that Pokimane’s situation with FaZe Kaysan is a classic case of misunderstood humor. It’s not every day we witness such an open exchange between two streamers, and it’s refreshing to see the human side of these personalities.

Streamer Pokimane has responded following comments about her action of showing her private messages with FaZe Kaysan on a live broadcast, during which he invited her for a dinner date.

At first, Poki reached out to Kaysan with the intention of resolving any apparent disagreements that might have arisen from their contrasting viewpoints about streaming gambling activities and online platforms such as Stake.

After mentioning that he owed her a dinner, Kaysan clarified, “Actually, not with the FaZe boys, only us two. What other way is there for us to become friends?

In a quick and humorous response, Pokimane and her chat perceived a possibly flirtatious tone in the message, causing her to erupt in laughter and reply with an emoji of raised hands, expressing “Shaking My Head.

Though some spectators found the exchange amusing, Pokimane faced criticism from others for broadcasting her direct messages with Kaysan live – a move that raised eyebrows, considering her previous rejection of his proposal.

Pokimane responds to backlash for sharing DMs with FaZe Kaysan

The following day, Poki addressed the criticism through a post on X, where she shared a quote-tweet from a user who expressed disapproval towards individuals who share private messages from others on social media, using the term “b*tches”.

She expressed her disappointment, noting that it’s troubling how frequently incorrect information is shared with the intention of making her appear as the wrongdoer. (13 words)

“Kaysan’s DMs weren’t leaked by me; we were both viewing them simultaneously when he replied to me. It was all just joking around, so I kindly ask that you don’t misconstrue it.

It’s truly disappointing when misinformation is circulated with the intention of making me seem like a wrongdoer. In reality, Kaysan and I were both viewing his DMs in real-time during our stream. That was how he responded to me before I even sent my message. This was all meant in jest, so please don’t misconstrue it. 🥲

She remarked, “Regrettably, I’ve come across responses similar to this quite often.” Laughing, she clarified, “I can be testy at times, but certainly not here, as you can see, chuckling.

Regrettably, I’ve come across numerous responses similar to this one 😨. To be clear, I can be a bit testy at times, but that’s not the case here, trust me, it’s just a laugh 😂.

Speaking from a fan’s perspective, I’d like to share some insight Poki provided in an extra comment. It appears that Kaysan was cognizant of the fact that their conversation was being live-streamed, which is why he responded to Poki’s unsent dinner invitation in the manner he did.

In response to the situation, Kaysan seemed unfazed and even injected some humor into his own broadcast, commenting, “Look, she’s quite attractive, alright? Don’t hesitate to express your feelings. …It’s all fine, it’s no big deal.
