Twitch megastar Amouranth has always shared a controversial relationship with Twitch’s big events, thanks to the multiple incidents she had to be a part of. For instance, Amo went through turmoil as a stalker ruined her experience at one of the events, following her throughout. This caused major problems for her as well as the team, as she could not celebrate neatly with fans.

While this experience was traumatizing enough, there was another one stored in the folder of bad memories. During the 2019 TwitchCon, the ASMR queen attended the gala to have a real-life meetup with fans. But her excitement instantly turned into sorrow as the authorities asked her to exit the arena. 

Amouranth shares her sorrows of having a disappointing experience at TwitchCon 2019 

It is no secret that 2019 was a year of ‘bans’ for Amo as Twitch took her out of the platform multiple times. For instance, she received several bans, one after another, limiting her from streaming. But this, somehow turned beneficial for her as she grabbed over 300,000 subscribers during the weeks.

And so, to celebrate it with fans, the Twitch queen decided to attend TwitchCon in San Diego. However, her excitement turned out to be the guest for a few minutes as the authorities made her walk out of the event. Apparently, Amo was attending one of the shows but was denied entry and asked to leave.

The news made headlines in the next few minutes as Reddit’s popular thread featuring livestreamfails showcased a video. And looking at it, fans made theories based on beliefs. Some believed her ban to be the reason, others blamed her outfit. But none of them was the case as an avid user revealed the actual reason.

Sadly, the show did not have any seats left and the authorities did not allow anyone to stand and watch, leading to the denial of entry. Plus, it wasn’t only her that was asked to leave, as a few other streamers complained about the same. So, while Amo walked in to have a fruitful experience, it felt like that wasn’t her day.

However, her Twitch ban and this TwitchCon mishap paved way for more popularity as her channel ranked among the fastest-growing ones on Twitch. And now, we all know where she stands as she is the ‘Queen Of Twitch.’
